Conejo Valley’s Changing Climate: Current Threats & Paths Forward – An online presentation March 2nd
Conservation ecologist Dr. Sean Anderson will discuss the threat of climate change to the Conejo Valley, and what we can do about it, in the kickoff presentation of our 2022 Speaker Series. This event will be held via Zoom on Wednesday March 2nd at 7:00 pm. We will send instructions on how to join the Zoom webinar to people who sign up (how to do this is described below) the day before the event. The number of attendees is limited so we recommend you sign up immediately!
According to Dr. Anderson, we are living through an era of unprecedented environmental change in an area experiencing some of the greatest climatic transformations in North America. The Conejo Valley is now burning more frequently, experiencing drier dries and wetter wets, and seeing species fade away. While these and related changes are disturbing and sobering, we are also ground zero for a host of approaches to building a more sustainable community which provide the seeds of hope. He will discuss the current state of affairs of our Conejo Valley region and ways out of the darkness in this presentation with ample time for questions and discussion.
Dr. Anderson is a broadly trained ecologist and conservation biologist who works on a variety of coastal zone management issues across California, Louisiana, the South Pacific, and Middle East. He chairs the Environmental Science and Resource Management Program at California State University Channel Islands and is an elected or appointed member of numerous state, federal, and international governmental and scientific advisory boards. His energetic, innovative, and award-winning teaching and conservation efforts are often covered in the popular press and spawned the eponymous “Sean Anderson” character (played by Josh Hutcherson) in Warner Brother’s Journey film franchise.
