SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Mary Mattingly: Ecology\, The Original Commons
DESCRIPTION:From the organizers:\n\n\nGreen Series: Artist Talk with Mary Mattingly\n\nEcology: The Original Commons\n\nEcology is the original commons\, the basis and ultimate standard of relational and thoroughly interdependent life systems. How can we learn from ecology ways to improve the contemporary commons—be it public or civic space or the commons of knowledge? And what aspects of biological life are currently under threat in our public sphere?\n\nJoin ecological artist Mary Mattingly in a talk where she explores the notion of “the commons” as it has informed her artistic practice and her ways of engaging with other citizens through public art projects. Mattingly will discuss previous works and her current commissioned living sculpture at Central Library\, part of the exhibition Stars Down to Earth: Mary Mattingly & Dario Robleto. From wonders of the cosmos to urgent questions around habitable futures on earth\, this exhibition brings together the scientific inquiries and complex visual systems of these two artists\, who also\, through their art\, engage with the world as citizen scientists and ethicists.\n\nA soon-to-be-announced guest speaker will join for a discussion with Mattingly on science\, ethics and the commons for the second portion of the program\, followed by audience Q & A.\n\n\n\n\nThis program is made possible through the generous support of Whole Foods Market.

SUMMARY:Empty Waters: The Future of Seafood in America
DESCRIPTION:From the organizers:  \nThis year\, Long Island baymen were shocked to discover that on the opening day of scallop season\, most of the scallops in Peconic Bay were dead. Meanwhile\, Gulf oysters are dying\, and wild shrimp—once plentiful along much of the US coastline—can only be found in certain pockets of the South. In a series of stories published in October and November of 2019\, the New York Times reported on these particular instances of seafood devastation taking place in our waters. \nJoin award-winning New York Times writer Melissa Clark as she leads a thought-provoking conversation with oyster expert Julie Qiu\, Sea to Table founder & CEO Sean Dimin\, and journalist Charity Robey as they unpack the complex issues that impact our seafood supply and discuss possible solutions for the future. \nThe panel conversation will be followed by a reception featuring beverages from Talea Beer Co. and sustainable seafood dishes courtesy of Australis Barramundi and Sea to Table.

SUMMARY:Greening the Concrete Jungle: An Intro to Green Roofs with Alan Burchell
DESCRIPTION:From our organizers: \n\n\n\n\n\nAn estimated 40\,000 acres of roof space sit atop New York’s buildings — so why is it that less than 1% incorporate greenery? Combining common practices with emerging technologies and recent incentives from the City\, we now have the resources to change this and\, in doing so\, help solve key challenges related to food\, water\, energy\, and biodiversity that negatively impact NYC today. \nIn our newest rendition of this class\, we will examine a range of topics as they pertain to Green Roofs\, including: \n\nSystem Types\nElements & Technology\nDesign Considerations\nBenefits\nInstallation\nIncentives\nSolar Integration\n\nYou’ll leave the class with a true understanding of the potential that green roofs can play in transforming our cities\, and some tangible suggestions for where to turn next. \nAbout the instructor: Alan Burchell is the founder of Urbanstrong\, a full-service green building technology firm that designs\, builds\, and maintains a range of green infrastructure solutions. \n*Are you an architect or green building professional? This presentation is eligible for a 1-hour continuing education credit with AIA CES\, LA CES\, and GBCI CES.
