The conversation will explore what drives beetle populations\, how outbreaks intersect with wildfire risk and water resources\, and what coordinated science\, management\, and policy efforts are underway to strengthen forest resilience. \nPanelists: \nMatt McCombs\, State Forester and Director\, Colorado State Forest Service\nJane Stewart\, Associate Professor\, Department of Agricultural Biology\nTony Vorster\, Research Scientist\, Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory\nDan West\, State’s Forest Entomologist\, Colorado State Forest Service \nModerator: Gene Kelly\, SoGES Faculty Research Liaison\, Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Associate Dean of Extension URL:https://sustainability.colostate.edu/event/managing-the-planet_3-11-2026/ LOCATION:Avogadro’s Number\, 605 S.

We’ll start with some lightly facilitated discussion on a timely topic related to sustainability to spark discussion\, followed by time to socialize\, catch up\, and meet others. Drop in or out any time during the hour. \nFor March\, we want to dive into a topic that is on everyone’s mind: the vocabulary and rhetoric of sustainability research right now. Faculty are increasingly navigating questions of whether (and how) to use terms like climate change or justice in grants\, proposals\, and papers. We will have a candid discussion on the strategic tradeoffs of these terms—exploring what we gain or lose with different audiences when we use specific keywords.
