Science on Tap: Bears!
Join us for an incredible evening of discussion about one of our most incredible local animals: Bears! Ursinologists Meghan Walla-Murphy and Dr. Brock Wooldridge will discuss life histories, stories, and conservation of these mega mammals both locally and around California. With a happy half-hour sponsored by Other Brother Brewery, it’s sure to be an incredible evening. Bonus, you can also sign up to do a tracking workshop with Meghan the week before to get you prepped for an amazing talk!
Science on Tap: Nuclear Testing Impacts and Resilience
Nuclear testing has had long-lasting and serious impacts on our environmental and human communities, shifting, distorting, and creating new and often difficult landscapes, needs, and stories. During our next Science on Tap after a happy half-hour sponsored by our wonderful friends at Peter B’s Brewpub, we will talk with three distinguished scientists: Dr. Barbara Rose Johnston, Senior Fellow at UCSC's Center for Political Ecology, Jean Du Preez, Senior Scholar at the Center for Nonproliferation Studies at Middlebury, Dr. Ferenc Dalnoki-Veress, Scientist in Residence and professor at Middlebury's Center for Nonproliferation Studies, who will share their work with impacted communities, and the stories of those who don’t get heard as often as they should. There is a world of knowledge on this topic that often isn’t shared, and deep beauty in the human and wild stories of resilience and community support. This is not one to miss, and we hope we’ll see you at this impactful and important discussion.
