SUMMARY:Fall Repair Cafe at Bend ReStore
DESCRIPTION:Ripped backpack? Busted toaster? Wobbly coffee table? Don’t just replace it\, repair it! \nOn November 18th\, from 5:30 – 7:30 pm\, Bend Habitat ReStore and The Environmental Center’s Rethink Waste Project are hosting another Repair Café  – a free event that brings together people who like to fix things\, with people who have stuff that needs fixing. Volunteers will be on hand to repair – and share a skill or two! \nAttendees are asked to bring broken items and any replacement parts they think might be needed. There is no guarantee all broken items can be repaired that evening – more research may be needed\, a part may need to be ordered – but the volunteers will do their best with what they have. Here’s what we have volunteers on hand to repair: \n\nClothes and other fabric goods\nKnit goods\nSmall appliances\nElectronics\nBackpacks and other outdoor gear\nSmall furniture\nJewelry (small repairs)

SUMMARY:Science Pub - Planes\, Trains and Automobiles: Future Transportation
DESCRIPTION:Chris Hagen\, Director\, Energy Systems Lab; Associate Professor\, Energy Systems Engineering\, OSU-Cascades \nTechnologies developed in the Energy Systems Lab at OSU-Cascades may shape how people and goods are transported in the future. Join professor and researcher Chris Hagen for a discussion about innovations in energy storage and engine technology that are changing how personal and transport vehicles are powered. He will also explore regulatory and economic factors that play a role in forecasting future transportation technologies. Hagen’s research looks at energy conversion\, novel transportation fuels\, and the development of sensors for harsh environments. He developed a vehicle-based natural gas refueling system that led to the creation of a Bend-based company\, OnBoard Dynamics. He launched a second company\, Rogue Approach\, which is advancing technology developed in the Energy Systems Lab that enables drones to fly farther and for longer periods of time. Hagen was recognized in 2017 by the Society of Automotive Engineers as one of the nation’s top young engineering educators. \n\nNetworking beings at 5:30 p.m.\, presentation begins at 6:30 p.m.\nFull menu\, no-host bar\nAccommodations for disabilities may be made by calling 541-322-2022

SUMMARY:Common Ground: Renewable Energy Solutions
DESCRIPTION:A move toward greater reliance on renewable energy will help us to reduce our impact on the climate. But how do we weigh the pros and cons of different renewable energy options? How do we make decisions that take both long- and short-term impacts into account? What personal roles do we play? Curators Louise Shirley and Carolyn Nesbitt will lead a conversation among participants. Share your own thoughts and listen to other perspectives. Common Ground programs bring the community together to discuss important topics and hear different points of view in respectful and thoughtful ways.

SUMMARY:Castor Canadensis in the Beaver State
DESCRIPTION:BeaverWorks Oregon will overview the profound influence beavers have had on our landscape’s ecosystems. As a keystone species\, beavers forestall drought\, flooding\, wildfire\, extinction and the ravages of climate change. Busy as a beaver\, eager beaver\, beavering away—there’s a reason this critter has inspired such appraisals. As we learn about their lifecycle\, habitat requirements\, vulnerability and needed protections\, BeaverWorks Oregon will share the challenges of restoring beaver to watersheds in Oregon and other western states. \n\n\nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Environmental Trivia and Scorecard Release Party
DESCRIPTION:Join the Oregon League of Conservation Voters for a fun night of environmental trivia and the release of our 2019 Scorecard for the Oregon Legislature!

SUMMARY:Birders' Night
DESCRIPTION:Abbot Schindler\, Bird Photography  \n\n\nBird photography is one of Abbott Schindler’s many interests in the natural world\, and he has been photographing nature for many years. In this century he’s worked to get “close and personal” to birds in particular (they’re generally safer than bison\, moose\, bear and elk\, which he’s also gotten uncomfortably close to). His photographic work and equipment take advantage of his extensive R&D experience\, studies of photographic technique and composition\, and classroom experiences. His work has been published in scientific and industry journals and fine art books\, and is used extensively by the High Desert Museum. \n\nSocial gathering time is from 6:30 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. Programs begin at 7:00 p.m. and usually last until 8:30 p.m. \nFree and open to the public. You do not need to be a member of any group to attend.
