Join others at the Land Trust Alliance of BC’s 2008 Seminar Series, Stewardship and Conservation through Changing Climates. At Manning Provincial Park, April 11 – 13th, the Series includes a tour of Pine Beetle Management areas and many workshops and seminars given by BC’s leaders in the field.
Plenary speakers include Sara J. Wilson, an Ecological Economist and co-author of the recently released LTABC report, Mitigating and Adapting to Climate Change through the Conservation of Nature in BC.
Another special guest to discuss the topic is Dr. Timothy Kittel, who is a research ecologist at the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, University of Colorado, Boulder. He has studied the dynamics of climate change and its impacts on ecological systems for over twenty-five years. Dr. Kittel is a contributing author on Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports and was a team leader for the U.S. National Climate Change Assessment. His most recent focus is on developing ways to deal with the uncertainties of climate change in conservation action. Pursuing this, he currently leads a Climate Working Group for the Nature Conservancy of Canada BC Office.
Many other fabulous people are on the program, and we hope you can join us!
