Come hear Keith Akers talk on "Environmental destruction and livestock agriculture" on the University of Denver campus. This meeting is sponsored by the DU Environmental Team and is free of charge. It will be at 8 pm in room 253 of Sturm Hall. There will be a quick overview of basic environmental issues relating to the livestock industry, such as climate change, resource depletion, and mass extinctions. There will be questions and answers, discussion, and free vegan treats. Nonstudents as well as students are welcome; some members of the DU Vegan and Vegetarian Society (DUVVS) will be there.

FINDING US: Sturm Hall is on the University of Denver Campus, on Asbury about a block east of High. There will be signs pointing people to room 253 which is where we will be. Just walk into the building and find us. It is convenient using light rail (E, F, or H lines); get off at the University of Denver station which is roughly at High St. and Buchtel, and walk three blocks south on High St. until you get to Asbury, then about one block east on Asbury. Sturm Hall will be the large building on your right (south side of Asbury).

PARKING: On-street parking is heavily restricted in neighborhoods adjacent to DU (maximum of one hour unless you park really far away from the campus). There is paid parking in lot 316W which is just behind (to the west) of Sturm Hall. Do NOT park in other lots in the area where parking is restricted to permit owners.
