Conservation Discussion Group is a weekly event that brings together interdisciplinary focused members of the UBC community. In the spirit of American Thanksgiving and all things food related, this week at Conservation Discussion Group we will be discussing working land (farms, forests, rangeland) conservation. Attached is Claire Kremen (soon to be joining us at UBC) Adina Merenlender’s recent paper on this topic.
We’ll see you Thursday, November 22nd in AERL 107 from 1:30-2:30 pm!
- Our next Future of Food Global Dialogue is next week:
