Description

Science on Tap - Arctic Science in Alaska

Science on Tap is a science lecture series where you can sit back, enjoy a pint, and laugh while you learn. You don’t have to be a science geek to have fun—all you need is a thirst for knowledge!

DESCRIPTION: At this Science on Tap, join us as Zach Brown, PhD, executive director of Inian Islands Institute, talks about climate change in the Arctic and his effort to create an institute for education and research in Alaska. Through photos and stories, Zach will take us on a journey through the Arctic Ocean, where declining sea ice is changing life for biological communities and indigenous peoples, and where industrial expansion threatens a fragile ecosystem.


*A note on the suggested cover at the door: Science on Tap is supported by money collected at the door. It is committed to offering educational opportunities to adults who want to learn, so if $10 is a hardship for you, please come anyway and donate what you can.
