SUMMARY:SciPub: Addressing Climate Change with Beavers
DESCRIPTION:What is beaver-based restoration and how can it help us?\n\n\n\n\nA Science Pub lecture with Meg Waller\, Environmental Scientist\, and Restoration Program Manager with Bark. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Lecture\n\n\n\n\nClimate change is impacting our environments more than ever. Our region is predicted to get less precipitation\, both in the form of rain and snow\, and in turn experience more frequent and intense wildfires over an extended fire season. This impacts humans\, plants\, animals and the land alike. \n\n\n\n\nConsidering these predictions\, a major focus of restoration groups across the region is how to store more water. One of the most valuable partners in this water-focused restoration is beavers! By damming small streams\, they create ponds and wetlands that store water and offer myriad other ecosystem benefits. Beavers benefit nearly all aspects of our ecosystems\, storing and filtering water\, sequestering carbon\, increasing nutrients and boosting biodiversity. \n\n\n\n\nAfter centuries of being hunted for their pelts and castoreum\, beavers are having a moment or\, more accurately\, a movement. People from Oregon to Georgia to Scotland are teaming up to spread the word about the incredible work these semi-aquatic rodents can do and how beneficial they are to so many ecosystems. Beaver-based restoration is an emerging\, holistic restoration method perfectly suited to a dynamic planet. \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\nScience Pubs are a casual lecture series located in fun venues across the region\, recommended for ages 10 and over. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n$8 suggested donation | Advance tickets recommended \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZoom Option\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, you can watch on Zoom. You must register in advance. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nFor tickets & more info: https://omsi.edu/events/scipub-addressing-climate-change-with-beavers/

SUMMARY:Science On Tap: Boosting Biodiversity with Insect-Friendly Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Insects are essential to life on Earth\, but insect populations are in trouble. However\, there is hope in our own yards. There are many things you can do to make a real difference in improving insect biodiversity right where you live. Our gardens can host an astonishing variety of insect life—if we provide the habitat\, we can make a real difference. \nFive years ago\, Amy Campion began making over her Portland garden to better serve the insects sharing her space. She was amazed by the creatures that soon showed up. She saw leafcutter bees harvesting petals to make nurseries\, grass-carrying wasps building their distinctive nests\, newly minted dragonflies taking their first flights. In all\, she’s seen more than 400 insect species in her little 7\,000 sq ft plot. \nIn this talk\, you’ll learn 8 things you can do to create more insect-friendly habitat in your own garden\, and you’ll meet some of the fascinating creatures that show up when you welcome them in. You’ll learn: \n* to appreciate aphids\n* to prioritize pollen over nectar\n* why you should feed caterpillars and with what\n* who’s living in your perennial stems\n* how to attract more “tickle bees” to your landscape\, and\n* how to control mosquitoes in your pond (without fish!) \n[Amy Campion](http://www.amycampion.com/) grew up in Minnesota\, but she became a gardener in the Cincinnati area\, where she worked at a wholesale nursery for 16 years. In 2013\, she moved to Portland\, Oregon\, and in 2017\, Amy co-authored *Gardening in the Pacific Northwest: The Complete Homeowner’s Guide* with Paul Bonine.\n——– \n**COST**:\n**$15.00** DISCOUNT (senior\, student\, it’s your birthday\, just can’t afford the GA price right now)\n**$25.00** GENERAL ADMISSION\n**$35.00** VIP Premium seating (front center rows)\n**$45.00** SUPPORTER: Premium seating\, pint glass (beer not included)\, and good feelings for supporting the program \n**TICKETS**: [Get tickets!](https://www.kigginstheatre.com/checkout/showing/science-on-tap—boosting-biodiversity/2363872) \nVisit the [Science On Tap website](https://www.scienceontaporwa.org/)
