Seeing With A Climate Lens, Jane Ganion
Seeing With A Climate Lens, Jane Ganion
Year on Climate Change: Events
Join Jana Ganion from the Blue Lake Rancheria and Kit Batten, an independent climate change consultant previously at Pacific Gas & Electric to talk about a zero-emission future and your role in it. We will discuss insights and lessons learned from the clean energy and sustainability field through our work to shape a grid of the future. If you don’t yet know exactly what you want to do or you are have been working in these fields for decades, join us to talk about sustainability, electrical grids, climate, international diplomacy, the future, and you.

Plant Biodiversity In The Face Of Climate Change: What Will Become Of Coastal Endemic Species?, Nila Le
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
How will longitudinally constrained coastal flora fare in the face of rapid anthropogenic climate change and disturbance? Coastal communities pose a unique problem for climate change and its associated risks. Species that are concentrated along the coast are naturally vulnerable to the influence of harsh abiotic ecology, such as coastal erosion and high salt concentrations. In addition, analogous to montane species-habitat interactions, coastal communities may be “pushed” off the coast edge as a result of tracking preferred climate in the face of climate variability and sea level rise. This can be problematic for species that cannot disperse quickly enough to …

Fostering Multicultural Competence and Global Justice: an SIT Symposium
In addition to my work coordinating the SIT study abroad program Amazon Resource Management and Human Ecology since 1998, I pursue personal interests in the relation of modern development projects and the social environmental conditions faced by local populations of the region. In 2005, I evaluated the environmental licensing and implementation of Alcoa´s (Aluminum Company of America) mine operation in Juruti, western Pará State, which started operation in 2009. I was invited by the communities impacted and the different actors involved to participate in the team in charge of developing methodologies to valuate the social-environmental externalities faced by the communities, …
Experimental Halodule Wrightii And Syringodium Filforme Transplanting In Hillsborough Bay, Florida, Walt Avery, Roger Johansson
Experimental Halodule Wrightii And Syringodium Filforme Transplanting In Hillsborough Bay, Florida, Walt Avery, Roger Johansson
Reports
Discusses several transplant efforts in Hillsborough Bay, Florida using Halodule wrightii and Syringodium filiforme that we at the City of Tampa, Bay Study Group were involved in during the late 1980s. Acknowledgement of several people who put a lot of time into the project: My co-author Roger Johansson, Mr. Gene Pinson, one of our biologists with Bay Study, and Andy Squires, who was a biologist with Bay Study during the 80s and is now an environmental manager with Pinellas County.
