Proving the Power of Food Waste with Lamba Labs

Tuesday, Jun 4, 2013
7:00pm -> 11:00pm
World Environment Day 2013 with Fern

Lamba Labs

As part of the World Environment Day 2013 celebrations, Lamba Labs and Fern are teaming up to bring you an awesome event.

You’ll be learning about do-it-yourself food waste treatment, layman-friendly explanations of the different ways that food waste can be treated in environmentally friendly ways, screening of a food waste documentary (title TBD), snacks and beer!

Lamba Labs are a group of artists, software developers, and engineers, and they like to use their imaginations and their tinkering skills to solve problems. They’re building their very own anaerobic digester, meant to turn food waste into methane gas. When captured properly, methane gas can be used for cooking, heating, and electricity.

The Lamba Labs crew, as well as a few other Lebanese food waste enthusiasts, will give a few short talks on their work and on the ways that we can use food waste as a resource, rather than seeing it as a constant burden.

Entrance fee: 10,000LL including open 961 beer and light snacks
