SUMMARY:The Sacrifice Zone - Online Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:LIFE IN AN INDUSTRIAL WASTELAND \nIf you travel down a one-mile stretch of Doremus Avenue in Newark\, NJ\, you pass a natural gas plant next to a sewage treatment facility next to an animal fat rendering plant next to a series of ominous looking chemical storage containers behind acres of fencing. Airplanes pass overhead every two minutes\, their engines rattling windows\, while a putrid smell wafts from the open pools at the sewage treatment plant. \nThis stretch is known as Chemical Corridor\, and it’s located just down the road from schools and apartment buildings. It borders the Ironbound neighborhood\, where Portuguese\, Brazilian\, Central American and African American residents are separated from toxic substances by little more than a railroad track. \nThe Ironbound district of Newark\, New Jersey\, is one of the most toxic neighborhoods in the country. Maria Lopez-Nuñez\, a Honduran-American resident there\, is waging a war for environmental justice. She is part of the Ironbound Community Corporation\, one of the most effective environmental justice organizations in the country. The Sacrifice Zone follows Maria as she leads a group of environmental justice fighters determined to break the cycle of poor communities of color serving as dumping grounds for our consumer society. \n\nMore Film Details\n

SUMMARY:We Must Change Our View of Forests
DESCRIPTION:We can’t see the woods for the trees: To save biodiversity we must change our views on forests \nDan Duran of Rowan University has a provocative take on a conservation issue that has generated arguments throughout the state — and beyond. \nConservationists and others have led most of us to treasure older forests more than other ecosystems. Open-field habitats and young forests\, however\, hold significantly more biodiversity than closed-canopy forests. Those younger forests are often under-valued and less protected. Dan will sketch some of the differences in these habitats\, give us an overview of the conservation issues\, and discuss ways that listeners can get involved in helping to create and maintain early successional forest and “edge” habitats. \nThe meeting and presentation will be in a “live speaker”/Power Point format. The Chat Box will be open for your questions and comments throughout the presentation\, and a Q&A of selected questions will follow the main presentation. We expect this virtual meeting will last 60-75 minutes or so. \nRegister in advance for this webinar: \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar

SUMMARY:Webinar on Managing Polluted Runoff in Southeastern PA
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by: Darby Creek Valley Association\, Montgomery County Planning Commission\, Pennsylvania Resources Council\, Pennypack Ecological Restoration Trust\, Sustainable Business Network\, Temple University\, Villanova University\, Wissahickon Trails\n\nWe’ve all experienced storms that dump huge amounts of rain in just a few hours. This trend doesn’t just clog up traffic in the moment — it pollutes our waterways\, can damage homes and businesses\, and creates dangerous flooding. There are green solutions that our communities can put in place to make them more resilient to climate change and innovative ways to pay for them. I hope you’ll join us on February 3 to learn more.\n\nRSVP to reserve your spot today\, and we’ll follow up with the link and call-in information to join us!\n\n\nOrganized by: Pennsylvania Environmental Council\, Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed Partnership\, and Conservation Voters of PA

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.
