Speaker: Gareth Dennis, engineer and author of How the Railways Will Fix the Future
Engineer and writer Gareth Dennis joined us from the UK to discuss his new book How the Railways Will Fix the Future. In it, he looks at the history of railways (including the role they have played in extraction and exploitation) but focuses on their power to tackle issues facing us today and to shape a better future. Topics for discussion include lessons to learn from global railway operations on what works best long-term, and what this might mean in the United States.
