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: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:Political Comic Will Durst
DESCRIPTION:Political comic Will Durst brings his new show “Elect to Laugh: 2016” to Bend Friday\, February 12\, 2016\, in a benefit performance for KPOV\, 88.9 fm. The show will start at 7 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon\, 61980 Skyline Ranch Road\, west of Bend just off Skyliners Road. \nKPOV is offering event sponsorship opportunities to local businesses\, organizations and individuals who want to support High Desert Community Radio in the new year. Contact KPOV Development Director Bruce Morris at 541-322-0863 or bruce@kpov.org for information. The sponsorship deadline is January 20. \nElect to Laugh: 2016 is Durst’s comic look at the political season as it unfolds.\n“I am working with some of the best joke writers around\,” says Durst. “Donald Trump\, Ben Carson\, Rand Paul\, Hillary Clinton\, Jeb Bush\, Bernie Sanders\, and Barack Obama\, ably assisted by the 535 hard working satirists in Congress.” He promises that “every political stance will be taken to task” in his bipartisan 80-minute performance. \nKPOV has brought Durst to Bend twice before to sell-out crowds and rave reviews. Tickets to the February 12 show will go on sale in mid-January. \nThe Oregonian calls Durst “the thinking man’s comic.” The New Yorker magazine says\, \n“He’s perfected a verbal jitterbug of comedy\, taking on politics and war and rhetoric.” Fox News calls Durst\, “A great political satirist. One of the funniest guys around.” \nKPOV is a listener-supported\, volunteer-powered\, nonprofit community radio station that broadcasts at 88.9 FM and live on the web at kpov.org. High Desert Community Radio offers locally-produced programs not heard on any other radio stations in the area\, including civic affairs\, election coverage\, and the most diverse music programming in Central Oregon.

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.

SUMMARY:February Nature Night: Lichens --The extreme fungi
DESCRIPTION:**Registration for this Nature Night will open January 24th!** \nHave you ever wondered what the neon tufts growing on our local junipers are? Then\, join us for an illuminating evening about lichens! That neon green is actually a lichen: a fungus growing together with an alga to make a specialized growth form. \nLichenologist Daphne Stone will take us on a tour of lichens: what they are\, how they survive in diverse and often extreme habitats\, and how they are different from other fungi. Then we will take a tour of interesting lichens around the Pacific Northwest\, including lush lichens in coastal Oregon\, lichens that fix nitrogen from the air in the Cascades\, brilliant crustose lichens on rocks in dry areas\, and delicate soil crust lichens that protect the deserts of eastern Oregon.

SUMMARY:Bend Central Westside Plan Open Houses
DESCRIPTION:See what the future might look like for Bend’s central westside neighborhoods! \nBend’s central Westside is rapidly changing. After more than a year of community input\, the City of Bend has developed a preferred land use concept.  Now\, the City needs your input about how the transportation system might change to support this future land use vision. \nThe city is holding two open houses to present the preferred scenario and gather input on the transportation improvements: \nNorthern Area Open House \n5-7 p.m. Wednesday\, March 2\, 2016\nKingston School\, 1101 NW 12th Street \nSouthern Area Open House \n5-7 p.m. Thursday\, March 3\, 2016\nRiverbend Community Room\, 799 SW Columbia \nThis open house is your chance to explore the city’s proposed preferred land use concept and provide input about how transportation decisions could shape these neighborhoods. The Northern Area Open House will focus on Newport Avenue\, Galveston Avenue\, and 14th Street corridors.  The Southern Area Open House will focus on the university area and industrial area.  All materials will be available at both open houses. \nCan’t attend a meeting? You can also participate online from March 1-15\, 2016. Visit the project website at www.bendoregon.gov/westsideplan! \nFor any questions about the open house or the Central Westside Plan\, please contact Karen Swirsky at kswirsky@bendoregon.gov
