SUMMARY:Zahner Conservation Lecture Series | Cohabitate; Living with Nature at Highlands Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:Sonya Carpenter\, Co-founder and President of Co-habitate Inc. \nThe Highlands Plateau is rich in biological diversity and appreciated for its natural beauty. Development pressure is increasing in Highlands\, and threatens to have a negative impact on our natural resources. Therefore\, neighbors must work together to ensure the natural resources we all appreciate such as clean air and water are protected. We as a community must create a culture in which native species are celebrated\, encouraged\, and harmoniously integrated into public and private landscapes. This is the vision for the new community-based organization\, Co-habitate\, which is dedicated to engaging and educating our neighbors on the intrinsic value of our ecosystem and seeking solutions to environmental degradation due to the pressures of development. Co-habitate co-founders Sonya Carpenter and Canty Worley have a vision for this work and hope to ensure that our plateau is a place where we can all reap the health benefits of nature. In this talk Sonya will introduce some of the activities\, projects\, and opportunities of this new initiative and offer ways that each of us can promote a healthier environment for humans and all of the other species who share the Highlands Plateau. \nSponsored by Jennie Stowers. \nFREE | No registration required
