NATURE'S BENEFIT: THE WIDE-RANGING ROLE OF WELL-FUNCTIONING ECOSYSTEMS IN IMPROVING HUMAN WELFARE

What do we get from the environment? Well, pretty much everything. In this keynote we'll look at the many things that ecosystems do to provide us with healthy and satisfying lives. We'll look, in particular, at how protecting ecosystems and engaging with nature provides clean water, nutrition, and sense of belonging and place.

Please join us for the Vermont Educational Alliance on Poverty 2nd annual Symposium keynote address from UVM faculty members Brendan Fisher and Trish O'Kane. This talk is open to the public, and will be held from 4:30-5:30 on Friday, October 26th at the Kirk Alumni Center at Middlebury College.
