Harlequin’s Gardens Class: How to Build a Habitat for Pollinators with Andrea Montoya

Harlequin's Gardens 4795 N. 26th St, Boulder, CO, United States

Colorado is home to thousands of pollinating insects and they need habitat in which they can live and thrive. With the loss of so much native habitat that has given way to roads., developments and more, it is up to us to create safe and nurturing environments for them to live in. Growing native flowering plants is a huge step in the right direction but we can do more—and it isn’t very hard. Come learn about these wondrous creatures and how you can transform your space into a haven for all the little, beautiful, creatures.

About the film: “Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. Common Ground profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late.”

Nuclear Nexus & Nuclear Guardianship Collective

Virtual

RMPJC was founded with a main focus of closing down the Rocky Flats nuclear plant. In coordination with AFSC Denver, Greenpeace, and numerous other organizations, RMPJC worked to end the production of potentially harmful nuclear waste. Over time, RMPJC became the foremost peace and environmental group working steadily for the best possible procedures to properly clean up the already thoroughly contaminated site. However, due to an improper “clean up” by government agencies, the efforts to clean up Rocky flats and make it habitable once again is still underway.

A Tale of Two Pikas: from dueling subspecies to dueling visions of the future for an alpine icon

Boulder Unitarian Universalist Church 5001 Pennsylvania Ave, Boulder, CO 80303

There once was a fluffy little squeaky-toy of a species, the American pika, that was also a four-season alpinist. There are pikas that live their whole lives looking down on Everest Base Camp, and there are pikas that live in the desert heat of Lava Beds National Monument. So, which is it? Is the pika a hapless poster child for climate disaster, even though it manages to survive in some of the harshest landscapes on the planet? This talk will show the pika from many angles (and mostly in pictures rather than graphs), to celebrate the diversity and perfection of one of the many species that might soon become too rare to really study.
