Sure, the nexus of energy, food, water, waste, and alternative transportation sounds kind of important, but ouch! Learning about it makes our brains hurt. Luckily, Austin has the Webber Energy Group to make it all better. Led by professor Michael Webber, this UT-based research group hosts monthly Clean Energy Beers events, has developed an innovative Energy 101 MOOC (massive open online course), and recently won a Telly Award for its Energy at the Movies series on PBS. Apparently, at the nexus of the Webber Group's research and the world's most daunting challenges, there's some fun to be had – and you're welcome to join in.
