Tuesday, February 18, 7:30 - 9 AM Harvey Wheeler Community Center
Peter Alden, a Concord resident, is a nationally renowned birder, naturalist, author, and lecturer. He has led nature tours to more than 100 countries and is the author of many books on North American, Latin American, and African wildlife. Working with his friend and colleague, E.O. Wilson, Peter organized an event called Biodiversity Day, the first of which took place right here in Concord.
How has wildlife in Concord changed since the days of Henry David Thoreau? Is there evidence of a significant loss of biodiversity? If so, what has caused it? What municipal and private wildlife management decisions are being made today that will reduce or enhance the quality of life for us and other life forms that inhabit our town?
Peter Alden is a lively speaker, and we look forward to his presentation. As usual, there will be plenty of time for your questions and lively discussion. Coffee, tea and a variety of local goodies are provided. See you there
