SUMMARY:Meeting Bee's Needs
DESCRIPTION:Do you know what bees need and how to help them?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nNearly 3/4 of all plant species in temperate biomes and 94% in tropical areas are serviced by animal pollinators\, a majority of which are bees. Bees are also the most important animal pollinators of agricultural crops. Dr. Kim Russell\, pollinator ecologist and conservationist from Rutgers University\, will discuss the natural history of wild bees including what aspects of their biology makes them such good pollinators\, identify threats they currently face and discuss what we can do to ensure their conservation. \nThis webinar is being offered ONLINE through Zoom.

SUMMARY:Monarch Butterflies: Past\, Present\, & Future
DESCRIPTION:The monarchs’ history is lengthy\, and details are few\, but it’s clear that this species has survived an extremely variable climatic history.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nThe pending petition before the Department of Interior to declare the monarch butterfly a threatened species requires that we do everything we can to understand the population dynamics of this species. \nThe responses of monarchs to weather events in the last two decades provide insights as to both the size of past and future monarch populations. This population dynamic has played out against a background of human driven changes in habitats across the landscapes of eastern North America and Mexico. Unfortunately\, landscapes that support monarchs are continuing to decline rapidly as a result of agricultural practices\, development and warming climates. These changes not only involve the loss of milkweeds and nectar sources needed to sustain reproduction and migration but extend to the persistence of the forests in Mexico that sustain the overwintering population. Will the monarch migration become a victim of climate change? Probably. Can we keep this from happening? Yes. \nSpeaker Bio: Chip Taylor is the Founder and Director of Monarch Watch\, and an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Kansas. Trained as an insect ecologist at the University of Connecticut\, his research projects have included studies of reproductive isolating mechanisms in sulfur butterflies\, reproductive and life history patterns in plants\, comparative biology of European and Neotropical African honey bees and migratory behavior of monarch butterflies. In 1974\, Chip Taylor established research sites and directed students studying Neotropical African honey bees (killer bees) in French Guiana\, Venezuela\, and Mexico. In 1992\, Taylor founded Monarch Watch\, an outreach program focused on education\, research and conservation relative to monarch butterflies. Since then\, Monarch Watch has enlisted the help of volunteers to tag monarchs during the fall migration. Over 2 million monarchs have been tagged by volunteers since 1992. Of these\, over nineteen thousand have been recovered. This program has provided many new insights about the dynamics of the fall monarch migration. \nThis webinar is being offered ONLINE through Zoom.

SUMMARY:Where does all the water go?
DESCRIPTION:Did you know unmanaged stormwater is responsible for about 60% of pollutants entering our streams\, rivers\, lakes and reservoirs? That’s because when it rains\, chemicals and other dangerous pollutants on our streets\, parking lots\, and roads get washed into storm drains which drain directly into our waterways. This contamination can put restrictions on recreation and spoil drinking water. \n\n\n\n\nUnmanaged stormwater poses a serious threat to our public health. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo understand this issue better and explore solutions\, join the NJ Flood Defense partners for this educational webinar. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured speakers include: \n\nDr. Meiyin Wu\, Director of New Jersey Center for Water Science and Technology and Professor of Biology at Montclair State University\n\n\nSusan Rosenwinkel\, Bureau Chief\, Surface Water Permitting with the NJDEP

SUMMARY:Electric Vehicle Workshop for Local Governments Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is an opportunity for South Jersey municipalities\, counties\, public agencies\, Sustainable Jersey Green Teams and others to learn about electric vehicles (EVs) and charging infrastructure. \nIn 2012\, there were just 338 plug-in or battery EVs registered in New Jersey. There are now over 30\,000. Recently passed state legislation seeks to push that number past 330\,000 by 2025. EVs are now mainstream and this impacts local governments. This workshop aims to provide the tools necessary to make your community EV friendly. \nTopics covered include: \n– EV technology and emerging issues in New Jersey \n– EV charging infrastructure guidelines for municipalities \n– Available state funding and procurement programs \nSpeakers include representatives from: \n– Cross County Connection TMA \n– New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) \n– Sustainable Jersey \nDetails: \nWebinar held via ZOOM. When you receive the confirmation email\, click “Go to Online Event” for webinar link and associated materials. \nEmail farley@driveless.com for more information. \nNote: Cross County Connection’s Electric Vehicle Workshop for Local Governments scheduled for last April was postponed due to COVID-19.

SUMMARY:Bats of Petty's Night Hike
DESCRIPTION:Evening hike on Petty’s Island to look for bats and other wildlife.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nJoin us for this special evening program and learn all about bats and their many important roles in nature. With the oil tanks gone we have permission to walk the road and explore the field habitats of Petty’s Island. We know bats use the island\, but we’ve never been out at night to explore. We will bust some common myths about these fascinating but misunderstood animals and discuss some of the ways we can help to protect them. As the sun goes down\, we will head out and try to pick up their echolocation calls with our bat detector. There is nothing quite like a nature walk at night\, so come get batty with us! \nChildren must be 12 and older to participate. Registration is REQUIRED for this trip. Details are given upon registration. No phone or email registrations. Registration opens June 17.

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!

SUMMARY:Microplastics in Riverine Systems - Lunch with Carol
DESCRIPTION:Carol will discuss microplastics in our environment . Plastics are commonplace in and around our waters of Pennsylvania\, in our soils\, and in the air\, and understanding their affects on our environments and on life is urgent. This science is still in its infancy and questions are basic such as how plastics are being dumped and leaked daily\, which biological systems can microplastics affect with how much damage\, and what are the effects on biota of the contaminants in plastics. Policies are not yet developed in any country for microplastics\, or on effects in riverine systems. The current methods to dispose of plastic waste are far from being circularized in the economy. More information is needed on effectiveness of efforts to reduce plastic waste\, how to change human behavior and responses to policies\, how industry can be drawn in with incentives/disincentives\, and on how to assess the consequences of plastic waste. This webinar will focus on studies and policies on riverine systems\, and will include available studies of Pennsylvania streams.\n\nCarol Armstrong is a cognitive neuroscientist and neuropsychologist who shifted her focus to watershed restoration after 35 years of research on radiotherapy effects on the brain and caring for people with brain cancer and other neurological and psychiatric illnesses at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. She is a member of the Friends of Heinz Refuge Board\, PennState Ext. Master Watershed Steward for Chester and Delaware Counties\, the Stroud Water Research Center’s stream monitoring program\, vice-chair of Charlestown Township Environmental Advisory Committee\, and Advisory Council of the Pennsylvania Office of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.\n\n\nIf you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me at suedcva@gmail.com\n\nVisit DCVA.org for all upcoming events and webinars.
