SUMMARY:BB: Climate Change Priorities
DESCRIPTION:Last year President Biden sign into law the Inflation Reduction Act\, which provides\, at long last\, hundred of billions dollars in climate change action funding. In view of this and other progress around the world\, join us at the Science Circle to discuss which climate change initiatives should have priority. For example\, should mitigation be prioritized over emissions reduction? What are the best ways to cope with events such as polar vortex\, melting Greenland ice sheet\, sea level rise\, fires\, and so on? \nResources to help you prepare for the discussion: \nhttps://www.scientificamerican.com/article/biden-signs-historic-climate-bill-as-scientists-applaud/ \nhttps://www.wri.org/insights/5-strategies-achieve-climate-mitigation-and-adaptation-simultaneously \nhttps://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/11/28/climate-change-from-a-to-z

SUMMARY:COVID19\, two years later
DESCRIPTION:COVID19\, two years later\nTime flies – it’s been two years since the covid pandemic and the virus has basically become a fact of life\, at least for now. Think about how things have or have not changed\, how people deal with it in 2022/2023 versus 2020 and give us your opinion on how we’re doing. \n  \nIs this the first time you will attend a presentation with us?\nFollow this link first.

SUMMARY:Come down\, down\, down to the Sea with me
DESCRIPTION:Come down\, down\, down to the Sea with me\nWhen you look down at the sea\, do you wonder what lies beneath the surface waters? The ocean’s dark waters hold many mysteries and secrets yet to be revealed. \nEarth’s oceans are vast\, covering more than 70% of Planet. How much of the oceans to you think we’ve mapped? 50%? More? Less? \nWould it surprise you to know that to date we have only mapped about 10% of the floor of Earth’s oceans! That’s much\, much less than we’ve mapped of the surface of the Moon (98.2% mapped) or even Mars (86% mapped). \nOne of the most recognized features on the sea floor is the tropical coral reef. For most of human history they were the only corals we knew. They are amazingly beautiful\, and now endangered\, threatened by heating waters and man-made pollution. \n \nAlthough deep-sea cold-water corals have been known to exist for almost 200 years\, it’s only recently\, only in the 21st Century that we have gotten an inkling of the global extent of cold-water coral reefs and their ecosystems. These corals live at depths between 40 and 3000 meters\, or the ones we’ve found so far do. Many live below the depth where sunshine reaches or photosynthesis occur – about 200 meters\, yet flora and fauna from giant to microscopic are at home there. Some of these reefs have been actively growing for 40\,000 years. We are finding that these kinds of corals span the globe. \nPlease join us to explore some of these wonders of the deep using the marvellous immersive power of Second Life to experience our evolving knowledge of these wonders. Our STEM Island site is modelled on the deep cold of the Norwegian Sea. What you will find is a sampling of what has been found there…so far. \nIf you want to suit up for this even\, come a little early if you want to get a wetsuit from the freebie box. \nA presentation/field trip with Linda M. Kelley

SUMMARY:Why education?
DESCRIPTION:Why education?\nToday we ask you some questions\, why is education so important to you? What do you think are it’s advantages or disadvantages? How can it improve\, extend it’s reach\, what are problems within the system that you see and want to address? \n  \nIs this the first time you will attend a presentation with us?\nFollow this link first.

SUMMARY:The SC in the VWEC Eduverse
DESCRIPTION:The SC in the VWEC Eduverse\nBy: Phil Youngblood\, PhD \nKind of like residents who never venture outside of the remote village in which they live\, it is easy in Second Life not to realize that there is a great big virtual world beyond the borders of the 250mX250m space that defines each region. \nYou may have noticed that two other regions joined The Science Circle region back about six months ago – Chemistry World to the south and STEM Island to the north. What you may not know is that The Science Circle region and the two regions that joined it were all in a different part of the Linden Lab virtual world before then and that this is all part of an ambitious plan for educational regions in Second Life to come together within a large grid collectively known as the Virtual Worlds Education Consortium (VWEC) Eduverse. \nAt last count\, there are 58 educational entities hosting 112 regions within the Eduverse. Come learn about how the VWEC Eduverse was conceived\, its goals and vision\, and the diversity of educational opportunities represented by this collective.   \n  \nA presentation by Dr. Phil Youngblood \n  \n \n\n\n\nDr. Phil Youngblood\n\n\nPrevious lectures on film\n\n\nPodcast\n\n\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nIs this the first time you will attend a presentation with us?\nFollow this link first.
