Ecolog-L Envisioning a Livable Future: Event #1 January 29th

[John Carroll University (via ecolog-l list)]

Email from John Carroll University You don't want to miss this! Dear Colleagues 
and Friends, In 2025, John Carroll University, in collaboration with the Hank 
Center at Loyola University Chicago, will be hosting an online, seven-part 
series of events, entitled "Envisioning a Livable Future," marking the tenth 
anniversary of Pope Francis's encyclical Laudato Si': On Care for Our Common 
Home. In that work, Francis named climate change "one of the principal 
challenges facing humanity in our day," proposed an analysis of "the human 
roots of the ecological crisis," and identified elements of an ecological 
vision that might help us "escape the spiral of self-destruction" that lies 
before us.   "Envisioning a Livable Future" aims to create lively 
interdisciplinary dialogues: 1) raising ecological consciousness; 2) drawing 
attention to climate-forward initiatives; 3) encouraging both personal 
discernment and social action. See the list of upcoming events below. All the 
events will be "Zoomcast"; register for Zoom links at 
www.jcu.edu/livable-future, where you can also find more information.   The 
January 29th event, "The Current State of Climate Science," will feature 
Katharine Hayhoe, Ben Sovacool, and Nancy Tuchman. Please join us on January 
29th and mark your calendar for the series ahead. Warm Regards, Bernard Prusak
