Tomorrow, Thursday, May 14, 6–7. When Nature Gives a Warning, Speaker Series with ReWild NoFo and the North Fork Environmental Council. George Young Community Center, 446 South Jamesport Avenue, Jamesport.
Nikki’s presentation will be anchored around the idea that the application of chemicals for the killing of organisms is too often short-sighted and simply leads to resistance in the population over time. She’ll present solutions from a holistic sustainability approach that considers environmental, social, and financial lenses. Bonus: We will teach you how to make a Bucket of Doom to trap and kill mosquitoes safely while protecting other beneficial pollinators.
“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.“ what started as a 1990 lawsuit brought by NFEC is now a gorgeous preserve.
Thanks to : @nysdec@peconic.baykeeper@peconiclandtrust@govkathyhochul for creating a beautiful Preserve for our community!
