Free. Adults 19+.

"Glenn Page will be presenting on a new idea called the 'Living Atlas for Bioregional Regeneration.' The Living Atlas is a framework and a tool to help better understand the natural world. To do so, it behaves like a living being. It grows and adapts with every physical and digital interaction. It takes in all sorts of information from different places and people to create connections between the two. With these connections, the Living Atlas can highlight the causes and solutions of environmental health. The goal is then to be able to show which problems and responses are unique, which can be replicated, and what information is useful to the user.

"The Living Atlas is an emergent, ever-evolving and customizable experience in both digital and physical form. It is a powerful tool for exploring bioregional complexity and for identifying opportunities for deeper engagement. It weaves together ecological, social, financial, cultural, and spiritual dimensions, helping practitioners learn, share, and connect their regeneration efforts for greater collective impact. It is a living system that grows and adapts with those who engage with it."

Akis Karagiannis has written an excellent synopsis of the #LivingPlanet Symposium #earthobservation

"Several sessions that were supposed to feature NASA researchers ended up half-empty. One session had eight scheduled speakers; only three presented."

American science and technology is not going to be able to come back from this.

Well, this report confirms that we do a really good job in destroying world's life. The decline of populations is mind-staggering.

As people debate the costs, timeline, difficulties and challenges of keeping our planet habitable, it helps to have a reminder of what our (realistic) alternatives are (we don't have any).
