SUMMARY:Managing the Planet: Changing the mindset around climate change
DESCRIPTION:Changing the mindset around climate change: What we know\, how we act\, and why it takes so long\nThe United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change opened for signature at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992. The world’s governments\, including the U.S.\, officially recognized the reality of climate change and the need for action. Since that time\, scientists\, climate activists\, concerned politicians\, and educators have issued a series of increasingly dire warnings about the negative consequences of climate change. These warnings have had some effect. \nThe reality of climate change has been accepted by most Americans.  Recent polling shows that approximately 70% of our population believes that climate change is occurring and 62% that humans are the main cause. These numbers have risen substantially over the last year. \nBut 30% of Americans still do not believe that climate change is real\, nearly 40% do not accept that human activity is responsible\, and fossil fuels still supply 80% of global energy.  Why do so many remained unconvinced\, and why are people not doing more to solve the problem? \nOur CSU panelists will discuss the gap between compelling scientific evidence of a problem and lack of action.  After twenty-six years of news reports about the impacts of climate change on floods\, hurricanes\, and wildfires\, why are we STILL debating whether climate change is real\, whether it is human-caused\, and whether we can and should do anything about it?

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture: Joel Singley\, "Spiraling Downstream"
DESCRIPTION:Spiraling Downstream: How Microbes Grapple for Nitrogen in an Antarctic Stream\nJoel Singley- Doctoral Student\, University of Colorado Boulder\nFor a few weeks each Austral summer\, small ephemeral streams flow through the McMurdo Dry Valleys\, an extreme polar desert in Antarctica. These streams are home to rich microbial communities\, including algal mats that carpet the streambed in bright oranges and greens. In addition to surviving most of the year in a freeze-dried state\, these microbes must content with low concentrations of essential nutrients\, such as nitrogen\, and intermittent food pulses\, which threaten to scour them away. We will examine how nitrogen spirals downstream through different microbial communities in this unforgiving environment allowing life to persist.

SUMMARY:How to Talk to Journalists: Bridging the Cultures of Science and Journalism
DESCRIPTION:Why do so many scientists find it hard\, even unnerving\, to talk to journalists? \nWhat are the rules of engagement – and the do’s and don’ts of dealing with the media? How can you prepare to avoid the pitfalls that many scientists fear and increase the odds that you are happy with the results?  How can you make the most of opportunities with the press\, for your science to have an impact? \nJoin veteran journalists for tips about engaging with the media. We’ll explore the differences between the cultures of scientists and journalists and how to bridge the gulf. And you’ll gain insights into how they find – and choose – their stories and sources. \nThis year’s event is well timed for the up-coming Oct. 9 – 13 Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ) meeting at CSU. It will attract hundreds of environmental and science journalists from across the country and beyond. \nBring your questions!  You’ll get candid answers in a safe setting from this diverse array of journalists. \nModerator:\nNancy Baron is the Director of Science Outreach for COMPASS. Nancy holds workshops around the world for academic\, government\, and NGO scientists helping them develop core competencies as scientist communicators who want to make their work relevant to journalists\, policy makers\, and the public. Nancy began her career as a biologist in Banff National Park\, spent 6 years as Director of Education at the Vancouver Aquarium\, then morphed into journalism. She has won numberous writing awards including the Canadian Science Writers Science in Society and National Magazine awards. An ardent natuarlist\, she published a popular field guide\, The Birds of Costal British Columbia (Lone Pine Publishing) and a “how to” communications guide book for scientists titled Escape from the Ivory Tower (Island Press). Nancy received the 2013 Peter Benchley Ocean Award for Excellence in the Media for her work at the intersection of science and journalism. \nJournalists:\nChristopher Joyce has been a correspondent and editor at NPR for 26 years. For all but two years\, he’s worked on the science desk\, writing and producing stories on all fields of science\, with an emphasis on biology\, energy\, and environmental sciences. His stories can be heard on all of NPR’s news programs\, including NPR’s “Morning Edition”\, “All Things Considered”\, and “Weekend Edition”. In addition to his work with the science desk\, Chris was the editor and a correspondent for NPR’s Radio Expeditions\, a documentary program on natural history produced in collaboration with the National Geographic Society. He has also written two popular books on science\, “Witnesses from the Grave: The Stories Bones Tell” and “Earthly Goods: Medicine Hunting in the Rainforest\,” both published by Little Brown. In his free time\, Chris sails a 38-foot Ericson called “Ruby Slipper.” \nGrace Hood is an Environmental Reporter at Colorado Public Radio who investigates energy and environment topics in Colorado. She is drawn to people with compelling stories. Whether it’s tracking down a hidden monument on Forest Service land or following scientists as they count birds with drones\, her passion is finding stories that are surprising. If she’s really successful\, maybe you’ll think about something in a different way. Grace began her career as a reporter at the Boulder Weekly. Before entering journalism\, she was a history major at Bryn Mawr College. Her reporting has been recognized by the Associated Press\, Society for Professional Journalists and RTDNA. \nDavid Malakoff is a Deputy News Editor specializing in coverage of science policy\, energy and the environment.

SUMMARY:Biodiversity\, Bluegrass\, and Brews
DESCRIPTION:The Global Biodiversity Center is hosting its 2nd annual ‘Biodiversity\, Bluegrass\, and Brews’ event on September 26\, 2019 from 5-8pm on the back patio of Avogadro’s Number. This event is a way to create further awareness across the Colorado State University and Fort Collins communities of the efforts of the GBC and the work that CSU conservation scientists are conducting around the globe\, while also bringing to light important conservation issues. Entry into the event is $20 (cash only!) and will allow attendees a chance to enjoy the get out of your seat and dance\, local bluegrass music from House with a Yard (http://www.hwaymusic.com/)\, while sipping on three limited time only brews from a keepsake commemorative tulip glass. This year\, the GBC is teaming up with Intersect\, Maxline\, and Horse & Dragon Breweries to create three conservation-themed brews inspired by threatened public lands. The brews will honor: 1. Rose Atoll Marine National Monument with a tropical gose called ‘Motu o Manu’ 2. Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness with a pale ale named ‘Blue Boundary’\, made with locally sourced fruit and wild rice; and 3. Arctic National Wildlife Refuge with an alder-smoked blueberry pilsner made with lingonberry. All proceeds from the event will go towards supporting the mission of the GBC.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: 8 Billion Angels
DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker Terry Spahr will be presenting a sneak preview and Q&A of his new film 8 Billion Angels. Join him from 4-6pm on campus at CSU in Clark\, room A207\, \nView the preview here \nFilmmakers Satement:\n“In my lifetime I have witnessed remarkable changes in humanity’s growth\, in prosperity\, lifespan\, and in sheer numbers across the globe. \nAs a child in the 1970’s\, I saw the unintended consequences of this growth near my home in Philadelphia where pollution clogged the same Delaware River so celebrated for Washington’s crossing\, huge landfills for garbage fouled the landscape close to Independence Hall\, and masses of cars produced smog-filled air as they navigated roads designed centuries ago for far fewer people. \nDespite awakening to our environmental pollution problem\, giving rise to recycling\, renewable energy\, land conservation and environmental awareness and stewardship\, we now see that no amount of technology\, voluntary reduction in consumption\, or conservation can halt the greater forces propelling us toward climate change\, ocean acidification\, deforestation and a host of other natural catastrophes. All of our efforts\, up until now\, have amounted to stop-gap measures that distract us from the fact that we add 80 million more people every year to the earth\, who together consume more resources faster than the world can replenish\, and emit more waste than the earth can naturally absorb. \nThat is why I decided to stop talking about it and do something\, dedicating my time and money to telling the truth about the problem\, and sharing the hope of real solutions in the stories of everyday people. After all\, it is only when we are not afraid to name a problem\, confront it and talk openly and honestly about it\, that we can begin to fix it. \nIt is critical to offer an alternate vision for the future. If we\, as individuals\, families and nations\, band together by pursuing smaller families\, supporting the worldwide adoption of accessible and affordable family planning\, and strengthening our global commitment to the education and empowerment of women and girls\, we will not only bring tremendous social justice\, economic prosperity and health equity to billions\, but we will unequivocally restore the environment. \nJoin me in on this first step of my mission to ensure a planet that provides a just\, safe and sustainable future for everyone.” \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Borders and Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:‘Borders and Biodiversity’ \nThe complex impact geopolitical borders\, other types of borders (state\, protected area)\, and human conflicts have in impacting conservation and global biodiversity. This panel is especially timely considering the impacts the United States/Mexican border wall is likely to have on the immense biodiversity that exists in this region of the world. However\, this topic will not be limited to this particular issue\, instead\, we use it as an example of the types of issues we hope to illuminate with this discussion. \nModerator \nGeorge Wittemyer\, Associate Professor in the Department of Fish\, Wildlife\, and Conservation Biology\, CSU \nPanelists \nStewart Breck\, Research Wildlife Biologist for APHIS\, USDA \nHarry Greene\, Emeritus Facility\, Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, Cornell University \nJoel Berger\, Barbara Cox Anthony University Chair in the Department of Fish\, Wildlife\, and Conservation Biology\, CSU \nKristen Ruegg\, Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology\, CSU

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture: Anna Bergstrom "Alpine glaciers of the McMurdo Dry Valleys"
DESCRIPTION:Alpine glaciers of the McMurdo Dry Valleys: how are they changing and why do we care?\nWhen we think of “glaciers” and “Antarctica”\, frequently we think about melt and change. But in a place that is so cold and for relatively small glaciers\, are they even changing? And how? I’ll discuss results of my PhD research on how dust in the McMurdo Dry Valleys influences melt of the glaciers and the impacts of melt on the glaciers themselves as well as the surrounding ecosystem.

SUMMARY:Managing the Planet: Seeing Earth through the Flames
DESCRIPTION:Seeing Earth Through the Flames: How Climate Change is Contributing to Catastrophic Fires \nJoin us for a panel discussion on the complex relationship between wildfire and climate change. \nDocumented warming and drying of climate over the last several decades have significantly increased fire-season fuel aridity\, and fostered an environment favorable for devasting fires. In addition\, the long fire season enables insect infestations to be more effective at killing and drying out large expanses of trees\, which become the available fuel for ignition by lightning strikes. As fire season is now two-and-a-half months longer than it was a half a century ago\, the threat to biodiversity\, the global hydrological cycle\, and global climate is ominous. \nOur CSU panelists will discuss how climate change is manipulating the shape of our planet through fire and the implications this has on environment and society. \nWhere: Avogadro’s Number (605 S Mason Street Fort Collins\, Colorado 80524) from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, October 23rd\, 2019. Free of charge and open to the public \nPanelists: \n\nFrancesca Cortufo: Department of Soil and Crop Sciences\nCamille Stevens-Rumann: Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship\nRuss Schumacker: Department of Atmospheric Sciences\nTerrence Iverson: Department of Economics\n\nModerator: Gene Kelly\, SoGES Faculty Research Liaison\, 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:Managing the Planet: Climate migrants
DESCRIPTION:Climate migrants: how climate change is shifting the global demographic  \nJoin us for a panel discussion on the intersection between climate change and human\, plant and animal migration patterns. There is growing realization among researchers\, policy makers\, and the wider public that the impacts of climate change will have a large effect on global migration patterns in the coming decades. While Migration is an adaptation strategy for humans and certain animals that follow their habitats\, these shifts are slower for plants and for those that have nowhere left to go. According to the report\, Groundswell – Preparing for Internal Climate Migration\, climate migration will likely rise through 2050 and then accelerate; the challenges are certain\, but what are the opportunities if we act now? \nOur CSU panelists will discuss how climate change is shifting the global demographic of humans\, plants and animals. \nPanelists: \n\nJohn Sanderson: Center for Collaborative Conservation\nAmy Charkowski: Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management\nEd Barbier: Department of Economics\nPankaj Trivedi: Department of Bioagriculture Sciences and Pest Management\n\nModerator: Gene Kelly\, SoGES Faculty Research Liaison\, 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: Dirk Hobman\, "The Color of Ice"
DESCRIPTION:The Color of Ice: Photographs of Ancient Ice Cores\nwith Dirk Hobman\, Artist and Photographer \nThe attached photograph is of 29\,000 year-old ice from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet that has not been altered or enhanced in any way. How is this possible? Join us to find out! \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. The 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.

SUMMARY:Managing the Planet: Oceans and the sustainable development goals
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion of oceans and global sustainability. The world’s oceans and the species that live in them help regulate global weather and climate\, produce much of the planet’s oxygen\, and provide food\, jobs\, and energy for billions of people. But these benefits are threatened by pollution\, ocean acidification\, climate change\, overfishing\, and rapid development of sensitive coastal areas. This is why improved management of ocean resources is a critical step for achieving sustainability. \nOur CSU panelists will discuss opportunities and challenges associated with the ocean sustainability targets in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals\, which include eliminating subsidies\, minimizing acidification\, ending overfishing\, and expansion of marine reserves \nWhere: Avogadro’s Number (605 S Mason Street Fort Collins\, Colorado 80524) from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, February 12th\, 2020. Free of charge and open to the public \nPanelists: \n\nRebecca Gruby: Department of Human Dimensions of Natural Resources\nShane Kanatous: Department of Biology\nCraig Starger: School of Global Environmental Sustainability\nJessie Creamean: Department of Atmospheric Science\n\nModerator: Peter Backlund\, Associate Director at SoGES \nThe panel discussion\, part of a Managing the Planet series\, is free of charge and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture: Jessie Creamean "A view from the Arctic Ocean: Lessons for Antarctica?"
DESCRIPTION:Jessie Creamean- Research Scientist\, Colorado State University \nThe Arctic Ocean has a diverse and dynamic ecosystem within the sea water and ice pack. Interactions between microorganisms living in the ocean\, ice\, and atmosphere are highly sensitive to the rapidly evolving climate\, but still poorly understood for both of Earth’s polar regions. Dr. Creamean’s research focuses on a small but significant piece of the Arctice climate system puzzle: how biology in the sea ice\, snow\, and ocean impact Arctic clouds. She will discuss her research and life experiences spent during her recent arctic icebreaker expeditions\, her future plans for biology-atmosphere-climate polar research\, and how information gleaned from the Arctic can be useful for understanding similar processes in the Antarctic.

SUMMARY:Canceled: Reception Honoring Author Andrea Duffy
DESCRIPTION:The School of Global Environmental Sustainability (SoGES) is committed to the health and safety of our campus and community. In accordance with CSU policy and in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19\, this event has been canceled. Go to https://safety.colostate.edu/coronavirus/ for the most recent information about the University’s pandemic response.\nNomad’s Land: Pastoralism and French Environmental Policy in the Nineteenth-Century Mediterranean World \nAbout the Book \n\nDuring the nineteenth century\, the development and codification of forest science in France were closely linked to Provence’s time-honored tradition of mobile pastoralism\, which formed a major part of the economy. At the beginning of the century\, pastoralism also featured prominently in the economies and social traditions of North Africa and southwestern Anatolia until French forest agents implemented ideas and practices for forest management in these areas aimed largely at regulating and marginalizing Mediterranean mobile pastoral traditions. These practices changed not only landscapes but also the social order of these three Mediterranean societies and the nature of French colonial administration. \nIn Nomad’s Land Andrea E. Duffy investigates the relationship between Mediterranean mobile pastoralism and nineteenth-century French forestry through case studies in Provence\, French colonial Algeria\, and Ottoman Anatolia. By restricting the use of shared spaces\, foresters helped bring the populations of Provence and Algeria under the control of the state\, and French scientific forestry became a medium for state initiatives to sedentarize mobile pastoral groups in Anatolia. Locals responded through petitions\, arson\, violence\, compromise\, and adaptation. Duffy shows that French efforts to promote scientific forestry both internally and abroad were intimately tied to empire building and paralleled the solidification of Western narratives condemning the pastoral tradition\, leading to sometimes tragic outcomes for both the environment and pastoralists. \nAuthor Bio \nAndrea E. Duffy is the director of international studies and an assistant professor at Colorado State University.

In accordance with CSU policy and in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19\, this event has been canceled. Go to https://safety.colostate.edu/coronavirus/ for the most recent information about the University’s pandemic response.\nBiodiversity and Our Lives — The Global Biodiversity Center at Colorado State University hosts the 8th annual Biodiversity Ignite. Join us for a fast paced\, entertaining evening of IGNITE-style presentations that showcase and recognize the range of valuable biodiversity research being conducted at CSU. The center is housed at the School of Global Environmental Sustainability. \nThis event is FREE and open to the public. \nIn the IGNITE format each speaker presents 20 slides in 5 minutes\, and as an amusing side bonus\, the slides progress automatically every 15 seconds (whether or not the speaker is ready). Approximately 12 scientists from CSU will speak about their work on a diversity of organisms (microbes\, plants\, insects\, amphibians\, birds\, carnivores\, and elephants) and topics relating to biodiversity\, including climate change\, invasive species\, conservation genetics\, community solutions\, and ethics. \nBiodiversity is the variation of all life on earth\, from genes and species to communities and ecosystems. Biodiversity can be studied from the local to global scale and across the many levels of organization (genes to ecosystems).  In all systems\, aquatic to terrestrial and managed to natural\, biodiversity maintains life on our planet and underpins the ecosystem services vital to human well-being\, including food\, carbon storage\, climate regulation and aesthetics and cultural support. However\, human activities threaten this biodiversity and species extinction continues to increase. \nFor more information\, please contact Chris Funk at Chris.Funk@colostate.edu \nAbout the Global Biodiversity Center \nThe School of Global Environmental Sustainability supports the Global Biodiversity Center (GBC). The goal of the GBC is to; (1) link biodiversity researchers across campus; (2) provide expertise in biodiversity research to other scientists\, policy makers\, natural resource managers\, and conservation practitioners at the state\, national\, and international levels; and (3) work towards the enhancement of biodiversity through research\, policy advancement\, and outreach.

Go to https://safety.colostate.edu/coronavirus/ for the most recent information about the University’s pandemic response.\nA narrated visual journey through our modern world of 7.5 billion people that considers our expanding footprint\, rising prosperity\, and resulting environmental challenges that call for our attention and response.  \nBased on his many years as a picture editor and environment editor for National Geographic magazine\, Dennis Dimick presents a fast-moving\, vivid slide show lecture that explores and explains the modern human era: how we got here\, our current prosperity\, and what looms on the road ahead. Dimick frames his visual discussion using an emergent idea called the Anthropocene\, or Human Age\, a new geologic ear proposed by scientists that marks our trajectory and enduring impact on the planet as population rises\, and demand for energy and food increases. He addresses accumulating environmental impacts such as pollution and climatic shifts\, and how we might productively respond. His goal is to help us appreciate our place in nature and contemplate how we can contribute towards a more balanced future for ourselves and the planet. \n  \nThe son of fisheries biologists\, Dennis Dimick grew up on a sheep and hay farm in the U.S. Pacific Northwest near Portland\, Oregon. After completing agriculture and agricultural journalism studies at Oregon State University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, Dennis in 1974 began a four-decade journalism career that included more than 35 years at the National Geographic Society in Washington\, D.C.\, where he served as a photography editor and for a decade as the magazine’s environment editor. With a focus on the collision between human aspiration and the planet\, his National Geographic work included orchestrating major magazine projects on energy\, climate change\, soil conservation\, global freshwater\, world population\, and the future of food security. Dimick lectures on the emerging Human Age or Anthropocene epoch\, and his Eyes on Earth project with photographer Jim Richardson emphasizes seeing the Anthropocene and its meaning.
