Transition talk: What Is Biodiversity?
Wednesday 26th January 2022
in shop - 6.50pm - free entry
Limited tickets available. Please register via Eventbrite if you wish to attend.
Join Kevin Bryan and Transition Southampton in the shop for this talk - we commence at 7pm, see you there!
Most people are aware of COP26. Fewer have heard of COP15; the ‘Biodiversity COP’.
What is biodiversity and how is it measured? Kevin Bryan – local ecologist and former research biologist – explores the subject. He considers relationships between biodiversity, habitat loss and conservation.
If you’d like to do a ‘practical exercise’ (using tokens as species) please arrive at 6.15pm. The ‘results’ may get used in the talk if we have enough!
Transition Southampton believes in a positive, sustainable, community imagined future. They work with local communities, organisations and local governments to create positive, sustainable, community-based solutions that tackle climate change and energy scarcity. They are part of the international Transition Network, and have a range of active and past projects across food, energy, waste, transport and the built environment.
