Feeding the future is the focus of Gary A. Sojka’s hour-long lecture. The former Bucknell University president floats a number of solutions for audience consideration as he discusses the planet's population projection of 9.7 billion people in 2050 and the impact on the world's food supply. Potential answers offered by Sojka range from waste reduction and urban agriculture to eating more seasonably and introducing insects and other heretofore-untried items to the dinner table.
Dedicated in honor of Daniel J. Doyle, a professor emeritus and the college’s 1984 Master Teacher, the Daniel J. Doyle Technology & Society Colloquia Series features presentations by noted authors and academics that challenge audiences to consider the impact of technology on our society.
