In the 1970’s nature lovers and academics used the term “ecology” putting the focus on relationships among living organisms. Today we understand the impact on the planet as “climate change.” Are these different or are they all synonyms for the same phenomena? Has the focus on science, data and research separated humans from our relationship to all the living things on earth? What price is paid by this shift? Shaul will explore elements of a theology of the environment that may have been sidelined when our understanding and promotion of climate science dominated popular culture.
How do new scientific understandings of Earth as a living system intersect with cultural understandings, ancient and new? What implications do new insights into our human relationship to Earth have as we grapple with our future? In this presentation, Martin Ogle brings a 37-year career as a naturalist, Earth scientist and storyteller to bear in exploring these questions and applying them to the challenges of our day.

In this year-long speaker series, climate justice provides a unifying framework with a variety of disciplines, topics, sectors, and regions represented. Each speaker will grapple with the questions: How do you engage a justice framing in your work? AND How can we all better address climate justice in research, policy and outreach -- on campus and beyond.
Staff from the Commissioners' Office, County Attorney's Office, Community Planning & Permitting, and Public Health will present updates on oil and gas operations and regulations followed by a question-and-answer session with the Boulder County Commissioners.
