Flagstaff Festival of Science — Local Science Spotlight: Mapping Greenhouse Gasses with Kevin Gurney
Dr. Kevin Gurney is trying to change the way we understand carbon emissions by constructing information systems maps in very fine detail. He and his research team collect thousands of federal data sets of information about roadways, cities, and more and then process this data to generate the greenhouse gas emissions from the emitters. His work gives scientists a better understanding of exactly how specific greenhouse gas emissions impact the global carbon cycle and the climate crisis. Gurney also uses his research to help inform policymakers of how their cities and regions are producing greenhouse gasses in an effort to generate policies that are more environmentally conscious.

Museum of Northern Arizona announces opening of new exhibit looking at history of MNA archaeologists working in Glen Canyon
This weekend we open a new exhibition looking at the long history of MNA archaeologists working in Glen Canyon. The artifacts and information from initial surveys of Glen Canyon in the late 1950s continue to reveal new information and MNA archaeologists recently returned to the same locations to see how the sites have changed. All this reinforces the importance of the museum as a place where artifacts are cared for and continue to be studied. MNA Archaeologists in Glen Canyon complements the photography show in the Lockett Gallery, The Great Unknown: Artists at Glen Canyon.
MNA was started by community members who recognized how important it is to have a museum preserving and sharing information about the Colorado Plateau, and that community connection continues through our members and donors. You can help support the museum by participating in the virtual auction that is taking place right now. And if you aren’t yet a museum member, consider becoming one today in time to attend the upcoming Member Appreciation Day this Saturday.

Project update-Grand Canyon school fiber project
Last month, Commnet completed a fiber optics project that will now bring improved high-speed capability and bandwidth to the Grand Canyon School from Williams. Now that Commnet has completed the fiber optic project servicing the school, the park is exploring ways to utilize the incoming improved telecommunications services for park administrative functions.
New NPS owned/operated telecommunications infrastructure may be installed, or additional telecommunications infrastructure owned and operated by a commercial entity could occur–which must be authorized through the Right-of-Way permitting process. A sub-group of park staff from the Telecommunications Inter-Disciplinary Team are meeting later this month to identify next steps for improving telecommunications capabilities for Grand Canyon.
We will keep park staff and our community informed of the progression of this project, as well as other future telecommunications updates.

Economic Collaborative of Northern Arizona (ECoNA) — Lean Manufacturing Workshop at NACET July 29
The various philosophies behind more efficient manufacturing methods have gone by many names over the years – the Toyota Production System or “The Toyota Way,” just-in-time production, and more recently, lean manufacturing.
All have similar principals – that by applying certain tools, manufacturers can implement a systematic approach to reduce “waste,” which is defined as non-value-added activities.
In fact, lean manufacturing identifies eight potential areas of waste that can be reduced in ways that will not only streamline production, but also improve working conditions.
