SUMMARY:Learnings from Initial Restoration Efforts in Newton’s Central and Largest Park
DESCRIPTION:Climate change can already feel overwhelming\, and now we have a biodiversity crisis\, too? \nCan local conservation in our own parks and yards make a real difference in protecting wildlife\, strengthening forest health\, slowing climate change\, and improving nature’s ability to adapt? Using Cold Spring Park restoration efforts as a case study\, we will highlight what we are learning from new and ongoing projects to restore native ecosystems and avoid catastrophic ecological tipping points. \nJoin us to learn why acting locally matters\, what’s working\, how you can apply this information in your own yard\, and how we can create a model for building community to ensure healthy and vibrant natural areas for our wildlife\, ourselves\, and future generations. This webinar will feature three presenters: \n\nAlan Nogee\, President of Friends of Cold Spring Park and Newton Conservators Board Member\nZach Shein\, who has worked with Parterre Ecological and the Arnold Arboretum and did much of the research for the Natural Resource and Biodiversity Management Plan\nDr. Jon Regosin\, former Deputy Director of Massachusetts Fish & Wildlife and Newton Conservators’ Board Member\n\nIf you have questions\, please contact Webinars@newtonconservators.org. \nRegister

SUMMARY:The Extraordinary Caterpillar Film Showing
DESCRIPTION:Join the Newton Conservators for the newly released The Extraordinary Caterpillar movie\, which features Sam Jaffe of the Caterpillar Lab (who grew up in Newton)\, Doug Tallamy\, and David Wagner. \nAfter the 60-minute film\, Sam will join us for a Q&A session\, with some caterpillars as his guests. \nOver 98% of the living world on Earth is smaller than a bee. Yet humans view the planet as a world centered around themselves. Landscapes are deconstructed to suit human needs\, often with little regard for the natural systems that sustain the food web. The Extraordinary Caterpillar follows the scientists and community activists with this peek into the dazzling world of nature’s tiniest superheroes. \nRegistration is limited so if you sign up and find you can’t attend\, please click the link in the email you get from Zoom (no-reply@zoom.us) to cancel so that someone else can see the movie. \nIf you have questions\, please contact: Webinars@newtonconservators.org. \nRegister
