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/ \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Seeking brainiacs for Educated Guess\, OMSI’s trivia night!
DESCRIPTION:Nerd out at trivia in the museum’s Theory Restaurant. Our Educated Guess host will ask questions about science facts\, current events\, pop culture\, and scientific discovery in this multi-round\, interactive game. Grab some friends and build a team of up to 4 people. Prizes are awarded to the top three scoring teams\, so get your team together and test your knowledge! \n\n\n\n\nIn honor of Earth Day\, and in partnership with the Oregon Kelp Alliance\, this month’s theme will focus on underwater biomes dominated by kelp and seaweed\, the various organisms that live there\, and how they are important to modern human society. Will you pass the multiple choice round? Maybe the short answer section? Join us to find out! \n\n\n\n\nEducated Guess runs from 6:30 – 8:30 pm\, doors open at 6 pm. Food and drink will be available for purchase. \n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:An evening of physics and philosophy with award-winning cosmologist Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein
DESCRIPTION:A special Science Pub lecture in concert with the release of Dr. Prescod-Weinstein’s newest book\, The Edge of Space-Time: Particles\, Poetry\, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Lecture\n\n\n\n\nDrawing on poetry and popular culture—from Langston Hughes\, Queen Latifah\, and Lewis Carroll\, to Big K.R.I.T.\, Sun Ra\, and Star Trek—Dr. Prescod-Weinstein will take some of the most abstract concepts of theoretical physics and render them accessible for any who come to learn about the history and fundamental nature of our universe. \nHere we meet the quantum cat that is both dead and alive\, learn the difference between dark matter and dark energy\, explore the inner workings of black holes\, and investigate the possibility of a unified theory of quantum gravity\, following our speaker to the far reaches of the cosmic event horizon and down to the tiniest (and queerest) neutrino. \n\n\n\n\nAlong the way\,  informed by her deep knowledge of post-colonial history and Black feminist thought\, Prescod-Weinstein will challenge listeners to imagine a better path forward in our pursuit of humanity’s undeniable connection with the stars\, viewing physics as an essential way for everyone to look at the universe. \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\nFor tickets and more info: https://omsi.edu/events/science-pub-the-edge-of-space-time/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related
