The Watershed Scale of Climate Change Thursday, March 27 | 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. 8000 Elk Lick Falls Road, Floracliff Nature Sanctuary Host: Floracliff Nature Sanctuary Seminar Presenter: Dr. Alice Jones Wendell Berry once said, “Our understandable wish to preserve the planet must somehow be reduced to the scale of our competence–that is to wish to preserve all of its humble households and neighborhoods.” Thinking about climate change through the nested hierarchy of waterways and watersheds—-the tiniest backyard tributaries merging into larger and larger streams and rivers at the regional and continental scale–helps us reduce the scale of a global challenge to a neighborhood and community scale. We’ll examine global and regional climate predictions in the Kentucky River and its nested tributary watersheds to better understand how a changing climate will affect both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in and around our “humble households and neighborhoods.” Register for event Parking: There is a 1/3-mile walk from the visitor parking lot to the Trail’s End Lodge. Closer parking is available by request
