Join us to discuss the importance of a landscape-scale approach to wetland restoration and protection.
Water Cooler Talk: Wetlands and Better Water Quality Futures will discuss the importance of a landscape-scale approach to wetland restoration and protection, and will provide a broad context for thinking about the effects of wetlands on water quality. More than 50% of global wetland area has been lost over the last 200 years, resulting in losses of habitat and species diversity as well as decreased hydrologic and biogeochemical functionality.
The Water Cooler Talk series provides a once-a-month event that features invited speakers talking about water resources around the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Topics will range anywhere from climate to groundwater and anything in between. This series provides a chance for all people interested in water resources to gather and discuss current water-related work.
A certificate of attendance will be provided for professional development documentation. This will be provided to anyone who attends and is interested in receiving this certificate.
Please note that this does not count as certified credits for continuing education.
