SUMMARY:Climate Intervention to Cool a Warming Planet
DESCRIPTION:Climate Intervention to Cool a Warming Planet\nCan science fix climate change? Is it ethical? \nClimate change is occurring and its impacts on ecosystems\, humans\, and the economy are growing.  Yet\, 30 years of international negotiations have thus far failed to address climate change through policy and mitigation in a way that will avert profound consequences. This reality is leading to the consideration of climate intervention – deliberate\, large-scale intervention in the climate system designed to counter global warming or offset some of its effects. Climate intervention could well be in our collective future\, especially as the impacts of climate change become more severe and climate intervention technologies are within reach. \nOur April 5th panel will focus on and discuss the results of a recent report produced by the U.S. National Research Council on “Solar Radiation Management” – a specific form of climate intervention that would increase the reflectivity of the atmosphere\, thereby decreasing the amount of solar energy in the Earth system and cooling the planet. Our panelists will discuss scientific\, technical\, governance and ethical issues surrounding this controversial concept. \nPanelists: \nJim Hurrell\, Professor and Scott Presidential Chair in Environmental Science and Engineering\nKen Shockley\, Professor and Holmes Rolston III Chair in Environmental Ethics and Philosophy \nModerated by Peter Backlund\, Associate Director\, School of Global Environmental Sustainability

SUMMARY:Antarctic Lecture: Diane McKnight
DESCRIPTION:Using Narrative to Develop Environmental Empathy: Stories about Polar Regions and Beyond in the Long Term Ecological Research Schoolyard Book Series \nDiane McKnight\, Professor\, Department of Civil\, Environmental and Architectural Engineering\, University of Colorado Boulder \n\nEfforts to communicate with children about climate change and ecological themes often emphasize environmental threats\, especially in polar regions. For some children\, however\, this approach can backfire\, as they try to avoid continued exposure to problems they cannot solve\, such as the threats to polar bears. Another innovative approach is to promote the development of environmental empathy and literacy through the use of narrative. Dr. McKnight will discuss the use of narrative in the Schoolyard Book series produced by the LTER Network program to encourage children to learn about animals and habitats that they may not have the opportunity to see or visit.\n\nRegistration is required- click here to register\nZoom links will be emailed to registered participants

SUMMARY:Distinguished Ecologist Seminar w/ Peter Reich
DESCRIPTION:April 27\, 2022 “The challenges of being an ecologist in the 21st century: We might be good at what we do\, but is what we do of much good?”\nLSC Ballroom – Cherokee\n3:30pm Coffee & Tea\n4:00pm Seminar\nLSC University Club\n5:00pm Reception \nApril 28\, 2022 “The strength of simplicity and the challenge of complexity: traits\, trade-offs\, integration and scaling in an era of multiple global changes”\nLSC Ballroom – Cherokee\n3:30pm Coffee & Tea\n4:00pm Seminar\nLSC University Club\n5:00pm Reception \nPeter Reich’s work is multi-faceted and touches upon various aspects of terrestrial ecology\, attempting to link fundamental physiology with community dynamics and ecosystem structure and function\, within the context of the myriad of global environmental challenges that face us. This includes studying the effects on ecosystems of rising CO 2 and associated climate change\, biodiversity loss\, and wildfire. This research involves a variety of tools and approaches (experiments\, observations\, models)\, a diverse set of ecosystems (boreal forest\, temperate grassland\, and more)\, and a range of scales (local\, regional\, global). Peter is Regents Professor\, Distinguished McKnight University Professor\, F.B. Hubachek\, Sr. Chair in Forest Ecology and Tree Physiology at University of Minnesota. \nCo-Sponsored with Graduate Degree Program in Ecology
