2020 Annual Report 2020 Environmentally Ready Our well-being is intimately tied to the health of our planet. The last few years have shown us the consequences of placing too much pressure on the natural world. To build the healthy future we want, we need rapid transformational change. This report shows how the Center is turning education into concrete action. We envision a North Bay working together to find sustainable solutions. Get environmentally ready with us! Taking Action Climate change is top of mind for all of us. We need to take action. Universities play a unique role in sparking innovation and change through open discourse, research and workforce training. The Center focuses academic resources on North Bay environmental challenges. We: • Engage and activate • Build a diverse the community. workforce to champion the Partner with • environment. agencies and businesses to find • Collaborate on a practical solutions. global scale to share expertise.

In 2018, he co-founded “Crecer ConCiencia,” a non-profit that teaches Spanish-speaking families the value of getting involved in environmental projects. We need leaders like Elias. Historically, Latinx - 39% of California’s population - have not been fully engaged in climate planning. Elias is leading the way. “ e Center inspired me to mobilize my community to action.” - Elias Lopez Practical Solutions The Center connects public and private sectors with academic expertise to find practical solutions to real-world problems. Working with Nick Bennett, Rohnert Park’s Environmental Coordinator, we forged a partnership to identify key challenges facing the city and how the university can help. Faculty and students are now working on a range of sustainability issues such as water pollution, alternative transportation and native plant restoration. “Partnering with the university helped us address our environmental challenges in creative new ways.” - Nick Bennett Active Community Ned Molyneaux “got the bug” in a Center workshop monitoring local plants and animals using iNaturalist. He was so inspired, he went back through 20 years of personal hiking photos and uploaded valuable species observations into the shared database. With one million species threatened with extinction in the next decade, Ned is playing a key role by tracking our local environments. “I feel like I’m fi nally understanding how I can contribute.” - Ned Molyneaux Global Reach When the pandemic hit, university students lost access to the natural world. No field research. No collaborative problem solving. No first-hand studies of global environmental issues. The Center brought together 50 international field stations to secure a $200K National Science Foundation grant to develop virtual field trips. Global ecosystems are now accessible to students sheltering-in-place and to those who wouldn’t normally be able to travel to the field. “I am pleased to see CARES Act investments resulting in novel solutions that sustain critical fi eld learning opportunities” - Peter McCartney National Science Foundation Program Director Projects Faculty, students and partners work together to solve complex environmental challenges. The pandemic hit these efforts hard, challenging us to find news ways to support their work. As a result, we broadened our reach to include those who wouldn’t normally participate.

  • Historical Glimpses of the Laguna De Santa Rosa
    “Crystal Laughing Waters” – Historical Glimpses of the Laguna de Santa Rosa by John Cummings December 2003 Copyright – John Cummings, December 20 ©John Cummings, 2003 All rights reserved 2 INTRODUCTION While a visitor to Sebastopol in 1898 described the Laguna as “crystal laughing waters” in the Sebastopol Times, the description is very fanciful. The Laguna is physically a very low flow stream with a fall of at most about 40 feet in the 14 miles between Cotati and the Russian River (a drop of less than three feet per mile – less than two feet per mile north of Sebastopol). While draining a relatively large watershed of 250 square miles – about 16% of the acreage of Sonoma County, the Laguna would have always been a relatively warm stream prone to cloudy water of low water quality – certainly not “crystal”– even in the “pristine” Laguna conditions prior to European settlement of the region in the 1830s. The Laguna north of Sebastopol typically floods its banks to some extent during the winter rainy season and usually does not flow during the late summer, but forms a series of ponds and dry channels. The post-European changes in acreage of habitat types and the abundance of wildlife in the Laguna area in the pristine and the early settlement period, is well established. But from a water quality point of view, post-European settlement made the “natural” poor water conditions of the Laguna highly degraded by, for example, making the water warmer yet by agricultural clearing of the riparian forest shading the waterway or by increasing nutrification of the water with farm wastes, urban sewage and cannery wastewater, etc.
