Forest Ethics Event

This poster caught my eye as I was grabbing coffee at Sprouts today…

Author Andrew Nikiforuk and renowned photographer Ian McAllister team up to discuss the effects of a proposed Enbridge pipeline that would carry oil from Alberta’s Tar Sands to the BC coast. Their photographs and stories highlight the social and environmental costs of Tar Sands development and provide a clear call to action to protect BC’s wild coast. Discussion will follow presentation.

This is a free event hosted at the Norm Theatre at 12:30pm on 26-November. You find out more information on the Forest Ethics website, http://forestethics.org/, the non-profit organization hosting the event.

Joanne often gets really excited when she talks about Science. Luckily, she works in the Advanced Molecular Biology Laboratory, the educational arm of the Michael Smith Labs. She likes all kinds of science but has a special spot in her heart for biology, technology, and well, sports. As a scientist and educator at UBC, she hopes that she never becomes so specialized that she loses her global perspective. (When she gets around to writing an intro post, I'm sure that she'll link to it here).
