SUMMARY:Biodiversity Loss
DESCRIPTION:Join Professor Kerri Crawford of the University of Houston for a talk on the issue of biodiversity loss.  Our planet is home to millions of species that rely on each other and provide important ecosystem services. Humans\, too\, rely on nature — but we take a disproportionate amount of the resources and modify the environment in ways that negatively affect other species. Our effects on the environment are directly causing what many have termed “the 6th mass extinction.” In this presentation\, Dr. Crawford will provide information on what biodiversity is\, how quickly we are losing biodiversity\, why biodiversity is important for us\, and what is being done to protect biodiversity.  Time for interactive discussion will be provided after her talk. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Immense World Book Discussion Group for the Season of Creation
DESCRIPTION:Calling environmentalists\, animal lovers\, Christians observing the Season of Creation\, and people of all faith/spiritual traditions to learn about the amazing sensory abilities of animals in a weekly book discussion group using the bestseller Immense World: How Animals Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us.
