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: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: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: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: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: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: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:"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: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: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:Managing the Planet panel series
DESCRIPTION:The Heat Over Water: Will Glade Reservoir bring us closer to water security or be an example of ecosystem degradation?\nThe School of Global Environmental Sustainability (SoGES) brings to CSU and the community a CSU panel discussion on the impact of the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) on the Poudre River\, and the residents of Fort Collins and the new fifteen communities along the Northern front range of Colorado. The NISP proposes the construction of two reservoirs pulling water from the Poudre River; Glade Reservoir\, the larger of the two with a capacity of 170\,000 acre-feet of water\, would be located northwest of Fort Collins. As the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released the final Environmental Impact Statement\, the debate is back in the spotlight. This 15-year\, highly contested water project has brought stakeholders of all areas to the table for a debate on how to best plan for future water security scenarios\, and it is now\, once again open for public comment. Will this one-billion dollar project be our answer to water security or an example of ecosystem degradation? \nOur panelists will weigh the environmental costs and benefits of Glade Reservoir by discussing river health within the context of securing our future water needs. \nPanelists: \n\nLeRoy Poff\, Department of Biology\nReagan Waskom\, Director of the Colorado Water Institute\nEllen Wohl\, Department of Geosciences\nAditi Bhaskar: Associate Professor Civil and Environmental Engineering\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.

DESCRIPTION:SummerFest Viewpoint Series presents SueEllen Campbell\, Lucinda Smith\, and Lindsay Ex\nProgram: In November 2017\, the C40 Cities Bloomberg Philanthropies Awards named Fort Collins as the U.S. winner of the Cities4Action Award for its Climate Action Plan and for being one of the “world’s most inspiring and innovative cities tackling climate change.” Join us for a mixed informative talk and conversation about what to do when it seems impossible to act effectively\, about what makes Fort Collins efforts innovative\, and about the benefits of taking local actions. SueEllen Campbell will offer resources to help us break down barriers to personal action; Lucinda Smith and Lindsay Ex will discuss Fort Collins’ climate goals and progress and the local climate action campaign that focuses on a few simple things everyone can do to make a difference; and other community members will talk about what they have been doing and how. Let yourself become part of the climate solution—starting today! \nSponsored/organized by Changing Climates @ CSU \nFree event; registration required.
