SUMMARY:Managing the Planet
DESCRIPTION:CRISPR Gene Editing: Environmentally Friendly Choice? \nThe School of Global Environmental Sustainability (SoGES) brings to CSU and the community a CSU panel discussion on CRISPR\, the next generation of genetically engineered products. Known for its simplicity and ease of use\, CRISPR promises to provide an accurate and cheap means of transforming agriculture to meet the growing food demands of the future. CRISPR is a genome editing technique that is used in a wide variety of fields and is currently most prevalent in bio-agriculture. Unlike the current understanding around genetically modified organisms (GMO)\, which inserts foreign genes into DNA sequences\, CRISPR technology cuts out genes and splices in new ones with the purpose of treating for genetic diseases. This editing of an organisms’ natural genome comes with questions regarding the security\, safety and ethical risks to the environmental system. Will this technology be critical for making crops better equipped to handle heat\, drought\, and disease\, or will it pave a path toward “designer babies” and “gene drives”? \nOur panelists will weigh the costs and benefits of CRISPR by discussing genetically engineered products within the context of human and environmental health. \nJoin us at Avogadro’s Number (605 S Mason Street Fort Collins\, Colorado 80524) from 5 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, October 10th\, 2018. \nPanelists: \n\nStephen Pearce\, Department of Soil and Crop Sciences\nGraham Peers\, Department of Biology\nCarol Wilusz\, Department of Microbiology\, Immunology\, and Pathology\n\nThe discussion will be moderated by Gene Kelly\, Faculty Research Liaison at SoGES\, Deputy Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Associate Dean of Extension. \nThe panel discussion\, part of a Managing the Planet series\, is free of charge and open to the public. \n

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture- Diane McKnight
DESCRIPTION:Glacial meltwater streams in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica: Resilient ecosystems that abide through climate extremes\nIn the summer of 2001/02\, an ozone-whole associated cooling period in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica was interrupted by several warm and sunny summers that created “flood events” in the valleys. The floods caused much greater ecological connectivity. Dr. McKnight’s research group has continued to monitor streamflow in dozens of first-order streams in adjacent valleys to study the linkages between hydrology\, biogeochemistry and microbial ecology in streams through a period of climactic extremes. \nSpeaker:\nDiane McKnight\, Professor of Civil\, Environmental\, and Architectural Engineering\, University of Colorado Boulder

SUMMARY:"Food Justice Now!" Author Talk with Joshua Sbicca
DESCRIPTION:A rallying cry to link the food justice movement to broader social justice debates\n\nFood Justice Now! charts a path from food activism to social justice activism that integrates the two. In an engrossing\, historically grounded\, and ethnographically rich narrative\, Joshua Sbicca argues that food justice is more than a myopic focus on food\, allowing scholars and activists alike to investigate the causes behind inequities and evaluate and implement political strategies to overcome them. \nThe talk and a discussion will begin at 3pm. Book signing and refreshments will begin at 4pm. Books will be available for purchase during this event. This event is co-hosted with the Department of Sociology.

SUMMARY:Managing the Planet - What Does Sustainability Mean to YOU?
DESCRIPTION:SoGES continues to celebrate our 10th anniversary year by reflecting on how we view sustainability. With a focus ranging from environmental protection to social justice\, and business economics to technology\, we ask how the current paradigm of sustainability has developed over the last three decades. The 1987 Brundtland Commission’s definition of “sustainable development” – “development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” is still heavily cited today. The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals requires all disciplines and peoples working together if the many global challenges are to be reached by 2030.  What strides have we made? \nOur panelists will address these topics of sustainability and what it means to them\, but what does it mean to YOU? \nPanelists: \n\nKathleen Galvin\, Department of Anthropology and Geography; Director of the Africa Center\nKen Shockley\, Department of Philosophy\nEmily Fischer\, Department of Atmospheric Sciences\nMiranda Redmond\, Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship\n\nThe discussion will be moderated by Gene Kelly\, Faculty Research Liaison at SoGES\, Deputy Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Associate Dean of Extension.

SUMMARY:Guns and Biodiversity: Threat or Conservation Tool?
DESCRIPTION:Guns and hunting have complex roles in biodiversity conservation. On the one hand\, poaching and overharvesting of wildlife are clear threats to many species. On the other hand\, guns may be important tools for eradication of invasives and wisely managed hunting can be an important tool for maintaining populations and garnering the support for wildlife conservation from segments of the population. Come join the Global Biodiversity Center and a panel of biologists\, conservationists\, and hunters to take part in a discussion that explores the complex relationship between guns\, hunting\, and biodiversity. \nModerator: Jacey Cerda\, School of Global Environmental Sustainability\, CSU \nPanelist: Stewart Breck\, National Wildlife Research Center \nPanelist: Janet George\, Colorado Parks and Wildlife \nPanelist: Aaron Kindle\, National Wildlife Federation \nPanelist: Mark Viera\, Colorado Parks and Wildlife \nPanelist: George Wittemyer\, Department of Fish\, Wildlife\, and Conservation Biology\, CSU \nHosted by the Global Biodiversity Center.

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture- John Weller
DESCRIPTION:John B. Weller\, an internationally acclaimed photographer\, filmmaker and author\, invites you to journey above and below the ice in Antarctica. He will explain how his efforts to protect the Ross Sea\, Antarctica inspired a global coalition of organizations\, scientists\, diplomats\, and more than a million people\, and helped train world leaders from the White House to the Kremlin. Weller’s photographs of the Ross Sea became the face of Antarctic conservation efforts worldwide. Twelve years of work came to fruition in 2016 when diplomats from 24 countries and the EU adopted the Ross Sea Marine Protected Area- the first large-scale international marine protected area and the largest MPA in the world. \n  \nA lecture series held once a month through the academic year discussing life and work ‘on the ice’ with invited Antarctic researchers. These lectures are located at the Poudre River Library District – Old Town Library at 201 Petersen Street\, Fort Collins\, CO from 7-8pm.

SUMMARY:Entrepreneurial approaches to marine science\, conservation\, and education
DESCRIPTION:Our oceans are facing unprecedented challenges from climate change and overfishing to plastics and ocean acidification. Amidst such human-generated problems\, there are continually evolving changes and challenges in how ocean science\, conservation\, and education are seen\, supported\, and conducted. Entrepreneurial approaches\, including small businesses and non-profits\, outside large institutions and industries offer increasingly new and agile pathways. We will discuss several different paths that have resulting in novel and modern ways of studying\, conserving\, and teaching about our oceans. An open discussion on these topics and the importance of collaboration and innovation will follow. \nBrandon Southall\, PhD.\nPresident & Senior Scientist\, Southall Environmental Associates\, Inc.\nBoard of Directors\, California Ocean Alliance \nGraham Casden\nChief Visionary Officer\nOceans First

SUMMARY:Global Biodiversity Center Panel: Putting the 'diversity' in Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:The Global Biodiversity Center will host a discussion featuring a diverse group of Colorado State University scientists who are making a positive impact in conservation and biodiversity Tuesday\, Feb. 19\, 5:30-7 p.m. at Maxline Brewing\, 2724 McClelland Drive in Fort Collins. \nHuman well-being depends on biologically diverse ecosystems\, yet biodiversity is disappearing at an unprecedented rate due to human pressures on the environment. Building the knowledge to tackle this pressing issue and developing strategies to integrate this knowledge into policy requires leaders with diverse backgrounds and expertise. Unfortunately\, many groups have historically been excluded from professions related to biodiversity science and conservation\, including women\, people with diverse ethnic backgrounds\, people with disabilities\, and the LGBTQ+ community. \nKate Schoenecker\, research scientist from the United States Geological Survey\, will lead a discussion about the importance of diverse perspectives in biodiversity science and conservation\, the challenges of breaking into these fields for underrepresented groups\, and opportunities to make these fields more welcoming and appealing to people from all backgrounds. \nCSU panelists include: \n•     Liba Pejchar\, Department of Fish\, Wildlife\, and Conservation Biology\n•     Lisa Angeloni\, Department of Biology\n•     Arathi Seshadri\, Department of Soil and Crop Sciences\n•     Gillian Bowser\, Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory \nThe audience is encouraged to ask questions and share stories for an enlightening and informative discussion. \nThis event is free and open to the public. All attendees will receive $1 off all pints\, and Atacolypse food truck will be on site.

SUMMARY:Managing the Planet: Drones for Sustainability?
DESCRIPTION:The School of Global Environmental Sustainability (SoGES) brings to CSU and the community a panel discussion on how technology is changing the ways we engage with sustainability. The use of innovative drone technology\, for example\, has been expanding across commercial\, scientific\, and recreational sectors and provide new opportunities for sustainable practices in areas like agriculture\, wildlife\, and energy. While drones are charting new territory on the ground\, they are increasingly gathering and analyzing large data sets and are themselves becoming big data collection platforms. \nBig data collection provides us with the benefit of information; that needed to analyze large populations and expansive areas\, and to create more discrete predictive models. However\, this benefit comes at the cost of privacy. Individual and data privacy\, along with security breaches and identity theft may be accompanied by discrimination and unfair use of the provided data. \nWhere: Avogadro’s Number (605 S Mason Street Fort Collins\, Colorado 80524) from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, February 20th\, 2019. Free of charge and open to the public \nPanelists: \n\nDan Zimmerle\, Energy Institute\nRaj Khosla\, Department of Soil and Crop Sciences\nSue van den Heever\, Department of Atmospheric Sciences\nMoti Gorin\, Department of Philosophy\n\nModerator: Gene Kelly\, Assistant Director for Research and Development at SoGES\, Deputy Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Associate Dean of Extension. \nThe panel discussion\, part of a Managing the Planet series\, is free of charge and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture: The First U.S. Geology Field Party in Antarctica
DESCRIPTION:James Collinson\, Professor Emeritus\, The Ohio State University \nOn November 29\, 1929 Lieutenant-Commander Richard E. Byrd made\nthe first flight to the South Pole. On November 4 a geological field\nparty of 6 led by Byrd’s Chief Scientist and second in command\,\nLaurence M. Gould\, left Little America. They sledged across the Ross\nIce Shelf to the Queen Maud Mountains along the path of Byrd’s\nproposed flight. Amundsen in his trek to the South Pole had previously\ncrossed the mountains in the same area\, but had not reported\ngeological observations. Gould and his men extended the known\ngeology throughout much of the Transantarctic Mountains.

SUMMARY:Katharine Hayhoe: "Mitigate\, Adapt--or Suffer: Connecting Global Change to Local Impacts and Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Mitigate\, Adapt–or Suffer: Connecting Global Change to Local Impacts and Solutions \nClimate is changing—throughout Colorado\, across the United States\, and for the planet as a whole. Temperatures are increasing\, rainfall patterns are shifting\, and extreme precipitation and heat wave events are becoming more frequent. \nClimate change isn’t just a problem for polar bears or future generations any more – it’s affecting us\, here and now. Not only that\, but the choices we make today will have profound impact on our future: the faster we cut our carbon emissions\, the less adaptation will be needed\, and the more suffering we can avert. \nIn such a politically charged environment\, are we still able to act on climate? Or is it too late? Join Katharine Hayhoe as she untangles the complex science connecting our choices to future impacts\, and highlights the actions that are being taken to combat this critical issue today. \nKatharine Hayhoe is an atmospheric scientist whose research focuses on understanding what climate change means for people and the places where we live. She is a professor at Texas Tech University and has been named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People and Fortune’s 50 World’s Greatest Leaders. \nFREE ADMISSION:TICKET REQUIRED\nReserve online at CSUtix.com \nThis is a Virtual Lecture

SUMMARY:The Color of Ice: Photographs of Ancient Ice Cores by Dirk Hobman
DESCRIPTION:March 30-April 4\, 2019\nClosing Reception: April 4\, 2019 4:00-6:00 PM \nArtist Statement: \nThe Color of Ice carries viewers on a journey of the imagination\, traveling through over 200\,000 years of earth’s past and between both poles. Along the way\, logic and emotion\, utility and beauty\, science and art\, and even space and time merge to one in an unexpected world of ice. The photographs of The Color of Ice demonstrate how a seemingly mundane object of the natural world cedes to the marvelous and the unpredictable when viewed in a new light. And yet with every light a shadow is cast\, and we are reminded that the limitless bounds of the imagination remain in immutable ways tethered to a fragile physical world. \nIce\, like photography\, has the remarkable ability to stop time. Researchers have tapped into this phenomenon by drilling ice cores deep into the polar ice caps. Layer by layer\, air bubbles trapped within the ice yield clues about earth’s ancient atmosphere. Until now\, however\, only a handful of researchers have ever seen such ice. This project breaks new ground by sharing never-before-seen photographs taken at the National Science Foundation Ice Core Facility in Denver\, Colorado. \nThe Color of Ice presents paired photographs that travel through time and in which the intricate cracked textures of ancient ice captured in black and white yield to an unlikely and unprecedented explosion of pattern and color under polarized light. A product of science\, this special light helps pinpoint the location of trapped air bubbles. Yet the resulting colors bear no scientific significance or value\, and thus the cold logic and utility of science melts into the beautiful and the sublime. \nMimicking the powerful forces of glaciers that literally capture and compress time within their ice\, a final image merges multiple photographs from this project into one\, thereby capturing and compressing over 200\,000 years into a single visual representation\, erasing the very boundaries of time itself. \n-Dirk Hobman
