NWVEG Westside Potluck and Insects/Nature Based Climate Solutions

We have a real treat following the Northwest VEG Westside vegan potluck in October. Scott Hoffman Black has been at the forefront of the conservation movement for over three decades. He is executive director of the Xerces Society, which under his leadership has become the largest invertebrate conservation non-profit on the world. Scott’s work has led to protection and restoration of habitat on millions of acres of rangelands, forests, and farmland as well as protection for many endangered species. Scott will be giving a fascinating presentation on the importance of insects in preserving our natural environment and how they are an important factor in addressing the environmental issues facing all life on Earth. Come at 5:00 pm for the potluck, 6:15 pm for Scott’s presentation, or both.
