SUMMARY:Facing Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:The apocalyptic story of the current climate crisis is nothing new. What is new is the research emerging on why we have failed to act. Social psychologists have recently identified some of the reasons behind the inertia caused by fear\, guilt\, anger\, despair and helplessness. These are the emotions experienced by the very individuals ⎯you and I⎯ in whose hands it lies to make the necessary changes that will enrich our lives\, make us more resilient\, restore self-­‐identity\, strengthen our communities\, and ensure a livable planet both for ourselves and our more-­‐than-­‐human relatives. Join us on Monday nights to share and contribute towards this critical shift in consciousness. \nBased on Living Systems Theory\, “The Work That Reconnects\,” Deep Ecology and ancient spiritual traditions\, the class is guided by long-­‐time activist/filmmaker/yoga instructor\, Vanessa Schulz.

SUMMARY:Weekend For Water
DESCRIPTION:Water is life\, and Oregonians consistently rank it as their top environmental priority. Oregon has more rivers designated as wild and scenic than any other state.

Yet our waterways (rivers\, lakes\, and wetlands) are at risk. \nYou can make a difference. Take your friends for a pint at a local brewery on January 30th or 31st on the Weekend for Water. A portion of proceeds will go to support watershed protection and the water quality required for crafting exceptional Oregon beer.  \nHOSTED BY\nOregon Environmental Council and Oregon Brewshed Alliance/Oregon Wild \nAsk for details at these participating breweries: \nArch Rock Brewing (Gold Beach)\nCulmination Brewing (Portland)\nCascade Brewing Company (Portland)\nGigantic Brewing Company (Portland)\nMcMenamins Brewing (All of Oregon) – @ Old St. Francis School\, $1 of every pint and growler of Hammerhead Ale will be donated \nNinkasi Brewing Company (Eugene) – Ninkasi is participating on January 28\nOakshire Brewing Company (Eugene)\nLaurelwood Brewing (Portland)\nStanding Stone Brewing Company (Ashland)\nUptown Market (Lake Oswego)\nWidmer Brothers (Portland)\nWorthy Brewing (Bend) – $1 per pint will be donated

SUMMARY:How Much Inequality is Acceptable?
DESCRIPTION:Some economists have recently suggested that Americans are now living with the largest income gap in the history of the world.  This conversation will explore our beliefs and values around income inequality. Is it an incentive for hard work and invention\, an acceptable part of community life\, or does this narrative no longer make sense? At what point\, if ever\, is the gap too large?  Julia Hammond\, owner of Folklala and Oregon Humanities’ Conversation Project Leader\, will lead a conversation around these questions.  \nWhere: Wille Hall\, Coats Campus Center\, COCC Campus \nCheck out a full schedule of events for COCC’s Season of Nonviolence – Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, Mahatma Gandhi\, Cesar Chavez\, and Chief Wilma Mankiller.

SUMMARY:Dr. Dennis Jenkins: 14\,000 years of Human History in Oregon's High Desert
DESCRIPTION:In this second installment of ONDA’s High Desert Speaker Series in Bend\, renowned archaeologist Dr. Dennis Jenkins will take you on a journey through through time. \nNative Americans have occupied Oregon’s High Desert for more than 14\,000 years. Dr. Jenkins’ lecture interprets the results of the University of Oregon’s nearly 80 years of archaeological investigations seeking to understand the culture history of the region. It walks the audience through the development of cultures in central Oregon from the earliest known occupants at Paisley Caves through to the Northern Paiutes who observed the coming of European immigrants intent on taking their land. \nColorful photos accompanying the lecture illustrate the artifacts and natural materials representative of each time period\, starting with the human feces\, extinct animal remains\, and earliest artifacts of the Paisley period and ending with the Paiute and Klamath-Modoc artifacts of the historic period.\n\nThe event will take place at Bend’s Old Stone Church\, 157 NW Franklin Ave. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. The event is free. Space is limited.\nRegistration for this event will open in January.

SUMMARY:Behind The Emerald Curtain
DESCRIPTION:A documentary from Shane Anderson in collaboration with Pacific Rivers. The film examines logging practices in Oregon–especially the hidden impacts of industrial style clearcutting\, road building and pesticide application\, all of which are largely hidden behind propaganda and beauty strips. \nWe will screen the video and then have a conversation with Chris Smith\, our Conservation Program Coordinator for State Forests and with staff from Pacific Rivers. This promises to be an eye-opening look at forestry in Oregon.  Click here to watch the trailer.

SUMMARY:WATER MANAGEMENT LESSONS - What Can We Learn From the Land of Oz?
DESCRIPTION:Annual fish kills\, loss of frog habitat\, and competing demands by irrigators\, municipalities\, and river users have created the perfect storm for conflict in the Deschutes Basin. In a quest for possible solutions\, City Club will look beyond the Basin to earth’s driest inhabited continent\, Australia. \nKeynote speaker\, Brent Walton will examine how a 17-year Aussie drought led to innovations in water markets\, conservation efforts\, and collaboration.  Could those innovations work here?  In short\, what can we learn from Oz? \nKeynote Speaker:   \nBrett Walton  – A reporter for Circle of Blue\, for whom he writes about agriculture\, energy\, and the politics and economics of water throughout the world. \nPanelists: \nDavid Pilz –  A water law and policy analyst for Ecosystem Economics\, a firm that specializes in developing water markets worldwide.  David has studied and written extensively on the Australian experience. \nJohn DeVoe – The executive director for WaterWatch of Oregon\, a state-wide nonprofit whose mission is to protect and restore flows in our rivers and to sustain the native fish\, wildlife\, and people who depend on healthy rivers. \nModerator:  \nRyan Houston – Executive Director of the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council. \nNumerous other water experts\, stakeholders\, and collaborators will also be present.  Join the conversation! \n$25 for members; $40 for non-members. Plated lunch included. Registration fees must be paid in advance of the forum. Registration closes at noon on Monday\, February 15.
