6:00 p.m. reception, 7:00 p.m. lecture
On Friday, May 16th at 7 p.m. the Cary Institute will be hosting a lecture by award-winning environmental journalist Andrew Revkin. Drawing from his popular New York Times blog, Dot Earth (http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com/), Revkin will examine efforts to balance human affairs with the planet's limits.
From Dot Earth, "By 2050 or so, the world population is expected to reach nine billion, essentially adding two Chinas to the number of people alive today. Those billions will be seeking food, water and other resources on a planet where, scientists say, humans are already shaping climate and the web of life." Following the lecture, Cary Institute staff members and scientists will hold a panel discussion.
Free and open to the public, the event will be held in our Auditorium, located at 2801 Sharon Turnpike in Millbrook, NY. Questions? Please contact Pamela Freeman at (845) 677-7600 ext. 121 or e-mail freemanp@ecostudies.org.
