Dear Friends,
My friend Jack Lebowitz informed me that the
Environmental Task Force of the River Road Unitarian Universalist
Congregation (RRUUC) in Bethesda, MD will host a presentation by Paul Ehrlich,
Stanford professor of population studies, on Ethics, the Environment and Avoiding the Collapse of Civilization tomorrow, Sunday, April 27 at 1:30 PM. RRUUC is located at 6301 River Road Bethesda, MD 20817

Ehrlich is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and a Royal
Society Fellow. He recently received the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of
Knowledge Award in the Ecology and Conservation Biology for having
“contributed key conceptual advances in the science of ecology and
conservation biology, with a long-standing influence in other academic
disciplines”. Dr. Ehrlich’s
presentation that will be followed by a reception. RRUUC is hosting this
event to provide a forum for Dr. Ehrlich views to a diverse audience and
