How Infrastructure Works: Inside the Systems That Shape Our World

We will discuss a book that shows us the infrastructure systems around us and helps us see their challenges and opportunities. The greatest challenges: adapting these systems to climate change as we transition them to new forms of energy. Another challenge: There are major issues with aging infrastructure, including water and sewers. We have experience with this in the Atlanta area.

Deb Chachra is an engineering professor and frequent writer about technology and society.

In our discussion, we will look for lessons about infrastructure for Urban Atlanta.
