SUMMARY:Language of Nature
DESCRIPTION:JANUARY 28 & FEBRUARY 4\, 11\, 18 \n7 – 8:30 p.m.\nAdults\, Virtual program \nThis popular reading series is taught by Dr. Winifred Hughes Spar\, Ph.D.\, a former English literature professor at Princeton University. She is the author of a scholarly book published by Princeton University Press and her more recent\, Frost Flowers\, published by Finishing Line Press. Her poems\, many on the subject of nature\, have appeared in Poetry Magazine and other journals. She has been the recipient of two Individual Artist Fellowships from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. \nThis upcoming course will examine what is happening to nature writing under the inescapable pressures of climate change and environmental crisis. We will explore our evolving human relationship with the natural world through the eyes of contemporary poets. Discover eco-poetry and eco-criticism\, tracing the movement from mid-20th century awakenings to current issues of environmental justice\, biocentrism\, and “the end of nature.” \nEach week we will read and discuss selections from the work of such authors as Gary Snyder\, Joy Harjo\, Camille Dungy\, Tommy Pico\, and more.\nFor additional information\, please contact the Watershed at education@thewatershed.org or email winnie@winifredhughes.com Discount available for members.

SUMMARY:Effectiveness of Medical and Cloth Masks for COVID-19 Protection
DESCRIPTION:Despite wide-spread adoption of face mask use for personal protection and to help stop the spread of COVID-19\, there is little or no public information available on the performance and efficacy of different types of masks or modifications on existing face coverings. Important questions\, such as which type of mask to buy or make\, what modifications can be made to disposable medical-grade surgical masks and other face coverings\, or the compatibility of facial hair with protective face coverings\, remain. \nEPA researchers are working to change that. \nIn a series of projects started at the request of UNC Hospitals\, EPA investigators have collaborated with University of North Carolina partners to test the fitted filtering efficiency of face coverings available to hospital workers and the general public\, as well as the relative performance of face coverings for individuals with beards. \nThis presentation will highlight three of these projects and their impact on: \n\nInforming hospital infection control personnel on the relative performance of alternative materials and practices that can guide prioritization during shortages in the supply of high efficiency respirators.\nProviding a relative comparison of the fitted filtering efficiency of improvised\, disposable and reusable face coverings used as personal protective equipment (PPE) during the COVID-19 pandemic\, informing members of the public on their best options.\nEvaluating the efficacy of popular modifications reported to increase the efficiency of disposable surgical and procedure masks worn by the public during the COVID-19 pandemic.\nExamining the relative performance of protective facial coverings against the SARS-CoV-2 virus for people with beards\, including an interventional approach to improve filtering efficiency for those who grow beards as a personal\, religious\, cultural or medical necessity.

SUMMARY:Revolutionizing Ocean Data to Mitigate Climate Change\, Overfishing & Pollution
DESCRIPTION:Ocean management is often undermined by a lack of data on human activity and on the waters themselves. Pirate fishers plunder the high seas with impunity\, knowing they cannot be traced. Crew members on legitimate fishing boats are tortured and even murdered\, out of sight. Stocks are overfished because most quotas are set only annually\, using last year’s data. New technology platforms are beginning to change this. Data from satellites\, autonomous underwater vehicles\, and other platforms are coming together with emerging data streams from social media\, smartphones\, and low-cost distributed sensors to create a ‘data tsunami’. More data were collected on the oceans in 2018 alone than in the entire twentieth century. Ocean data management has not kept pace with this precipitous growth\, however\, and limits our ability to use this new ocean data to address ocean threats. In this webinar\, we will present ways we need to revolutionize the collection\, sharing\, and accessibility of ocean data to address climate change\, overfishing\, and pollution. \nCo-sponsors: OCTO (EBM Tools Network\, The Skimmer\, OpenChannels\, MPA News\, MarineDebris.info)

SUMMARY:"Just Eat It" - online Movie and Discussion with Producer
DESCRIPTION:DID YOU KNOW that in the United States\, 25% of all food purchased is sent to the landfill\, but with food saving techniques\, the average household could save up to $2\,200/year! \n\nJoin us for a screening of Just Eat It\, a documentary about food waste. Help save the environment and money!\n\nStick around after the film for a discussion w/ producer Jenny Rustemeyer.\n\n\nThe movie follows the journey of a couple who attempt to demonstrate the magnitude of food waste by quitting grocery stores and living entirely off of discarded food.  This film shows how 40% of all food generated and 25% of all food purchased is wasted; steps we can take to prevent food waste\, and how sound management saves wallets\, the impoverished\, and the planet.\n\nVirtual online\,  Register here. \n“It doesn’t require a complete revolution in the way we treat food\, it’s just tweaking it slightly and usually in delicious ways.” \n\nPresented by Sustainability Now\, Pachamama Alliance Delaware Valley Community\, Tri-County Sustainability Alliance & Green Faith Circle of Southern New Jersey

SUMMARY:Renewable Government Energy Aggregation (R-GEA) Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this webinar to learn about the nuts and bolts of creating a municipal Renewable Government Energy Aggregation (R-GEA) Program for your community. R-GEA allows the municipality — or a group of municipalities — to negotiate for higher renewable content in the electricity delivered to residents. \n\nPurchasing electricity with higher renewable content\, particularly from renewable resources in the PJM region as required by Sustainable Jersey’s Renewable Government Energy Aggregation action\, helps transform the market for development of more renewable energy production at grid-scale\, reducing overall greenhouse gas emissions. Speakers will include representatives from municipalities and regional hubs that have established an R-GEA program for one municipality or for a group of municipalities. \n\nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Learn what The Department of the Interior does.
DESCRIPTION:What do you know about this incredibly influential department that controls public lands throughout the United States? Other than the Teapot Dome Scandal from U.S. History class\, have you put much thought into the Department of the Interior? \nThe Department of the Interior is sometimes jokingly called the “Department of Everything Else” because of its wide scope of duties. From oil and gas leases to mining and endangered species\, the department makes critical decisions about our lands\, people\, and climate\, but many Americans do not know what it does. \nJoin us as we dive into the Department of the Interior and look at how President Trump’s dangerous anti-public lands agenda has stacked the deck by putting people in charge who do not believe in the mission of public lands. \nPresident Trump is nominating William Perry Pendley\, a man who has spent his legal career fighting public lands and environmental protections and has compared climate change to unicorns\, to be the next head of the Bureau of Land Management\, the agency responsible for administering public lands and grazing\, mining\, energy development\, and logging leases on public lands. \nThis Lunch and Learn will be conducted over Zoom on Tuesday\, July 28th at 12:30 pm EST. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions as well. A invitation link will be sent to your email prior to the town hall. Please RSVP here – we look forward to seeing you there!
