We have left the program intact as a matter of record, recognizing that it fails to reflect our collective heartache for the people and places of Puerto Rico. On behalf of the board, staff, and conference planning team, welcome to the 46th Annual NAAEE Conference. We’re thrilled you could be here and hope you enjoy everything the conference and Puerto Rico have to offer. This year’s theme, Imagine a World, builds on more than four decades of work to think creatively and collectively about how we can create a more sustainable future. We are also glad to be here now to help support our friends and the people of Puerto Rico, after the devastation left by Hurricane Irma. As you know, many parts of the island were hit hard by high winds and flooding, and power is still being restored to some parts of the island. We have been so heartened by the resilience and spirit we’ve seen in all of our partners here. And we hope that the conference will contribute positively to the island’s recovery. (Please see page 6 for ideas about how you can help.) This program is designed to help you navigate the conference and find the workshops, field trips, poster sessions, symposia, keynotes, and other presentations that best meet your needs and interests. You can also get the NAAEE 2017 conference app on your mobile device: download “CrowdCompass AttendeeHub” from your app store and then search for NAAEE. If you have questions about the program or anything else, please see one of the many volunteers, wearing the bright NAAEE t-shirts, or come to the registration area for personal assistance. Here are some highlights of the week: • The welcome reception, including the Share Fair, Authors’ Corner, and the start of our Exhibit Fair, is the prelude to an exciting opening night featuring Dr. Jane Goodall, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace (Wednesday) • Our annual Research Symposium, highlighting current research in the field (Tuesday and Wednesday) 2 Out of difficulties grow miracles. —Jean de la Breyere • The Exhibit Fair, showcasing new resources and programs in environmental education. We’ll celebrate with a buffet luncheon on Thursday, which will also include the Affiliates’ Welcome and the conference poster presentations • Plenary sessions with Carmen Guerrero Pérez, Director of the Caribbean Environmental Protection Division of the US Environmental Protection Agency (Thursday), and an outstanding panel of presenters speaking on Climate Change, Education, and Hope (Friday) • Networking at eePRO Group brown bag meetings (Friday lunch) where you can focus on the issues you care about most • Our annual gala and auction on Friday evening, at the incredible El Cuartel de Ballajá, an infantry barracks building completed in 1864 • NAAEE’s annual business meeting on Saturday morning, where you can learn more about the Association and have a chance to provide input • An Awards Luncheon featuring the presentation of the Jeske Award, NAAEE’s highest honor, and an inspiring panel of young leaders selected from NAAEE’s “EE 30 Under 30” program Thanks to everyone who has made this conference possible—our committee chairs, the NAAEE board, Advisory Council, and staff, our amazing Affiliate network, hundreds of volunteers, our funders, and so many other supporters. Para la Naturaleza has been an incredible host and partner, and we especially appreciate the dedicated work of our conference co-chairs, Therel Santos-Díaz and Elizabeth Padilla Rodriguez. A final thank you goes to all of you for attending—we know it’s a big commitment. We hope you develop long-lasting personal and professional relationships and a chance to engage in many meaningful conversations throughout the week. When you bring a committed group together, magic happens—and we are looking forward to creating that magic together in San Juan! With warm regards from your conference leadership team: Charlotte Clark Judy Braus Christiane Maertens Lori Mann President Executive Director Deputy Director Conference Manager 3 In partnership with: Tenga en cuenta que este programa fue escrito antes de que el huracán María golpeó Puerto Rico con devastadores impactos, obligándonos a cancelar la conferencia y volviendo nuestra atención a apoyar nuestros compañeros en Para la Naturaleza y en toda la isla. Hemos dejado el programa intacto como cuestión de registro, reconociendo que no refleja nuestro dolor colectivo por las personas y lugares de Puerto Rico. A nombre de nuestra junta de directores, nuestro equipo de trabajo y el comité organizador de nuestra conferencia, les doy la bienvenida a la edición número 46 de la Conferencia Anual de la Asociación Nacional Americana para la Educación Ambiental. Nos alegra que estén compartiendo con nosotros y esperamos que disfruten todas las experiencias que la conferencia y Puerto Rico les puedan ofrecer. También, estamos contentos de estar en la isla apoyando a nuestros amigos y a muchas otras personas luego de la devastación que dejó el huracán Irma. Como saben, muchas partes de Puerto Rico fueron golpeadas fuertemente por el viento y las inundaciones y todavía en muchos lugares los servicios de electricidad están siendo restablecidos. Nos inspira la resiliencia y espíritu que hemos visto en todos nuestros compañeros de Puerto Rico. Esperamos que la conferencia contribuya positivamente a la recuperación de sus islas. (Vea página 6 para ideas sobre cómo puedes ayudar). Este año, como resultado de más de cuatro décadas de trabajo y pensamiento creativo y colectivo- sobre cómo podemos crear un mundo más sustentable- nuestra conferencia será dedicada al tema, Imagina un Mundo.

  • Assessing the Science
    FAMILY PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY • SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING FAMILY Is there a scientific evidence base demonstrating that the use of family planning contributes to environmental sustainability? This report explores that question based on a two-year collaborative review of more than 900 peer-reviewed research papers from around the world published from 2005 through early 2016. No scientific discipline systematically examines or confirms the influence of voluntary family planning on environmental problems. Looking at pathways that lead through the slowing of population growth and the empowerment of women, however, the Family Planning and Environmental Sustainability Assessment (FPESA) found a wide-ranging literature generally affirming that this influence is both real and constructive. FPESA identified considerable evidence supporting—and very little refuting—the statement that the practice Family Planning and of voluntary family planning promotes environmental benefits and that expanding access to it can help bring about an environmentally sustainable world that meets human needs. The diversity of researchers interested in the family-planning connection to the environment is high, the report also concludes. Environmental Sustainability: The report features the project’s findings, perspectives on major related issues by eight authors, and an annotated bibliography containing assessments of 50 of the most compelling papers relevant to the linkage. ASSESSING THE SCIENCE ASSESSING Assessing Through research and outreach that inspire action, the Worldwatch Institute works to accelerate the transition to a sustainable world that meets human needs. The Institute’s top mission objectives are universal access to renewable energy and nutritious food, expansion of environmentally sound jobs and the Science development, transformation of cultures from consumerism to sustainability, and an early end to population growth through healthy and intentional childbearing.

  • Central Texas Master Naturalist Newsletter October 2020
    Central Texas Master Naturalist Newsletter October 2020 Texas Master Naturalist 2020 VIRTUAL Annual Meeting October 14-17, 2020 The 21st Annual State TMN Conference is happening! Deadline is October 2nd at midnight —we hope you haven’t missed it! The conference will be all things nature – from how to guide hikes, spot native plants and attract owls, to impacting local policy. And anyone interested in Texas’ natural resources and conservation efforts across the state can register! This year is going to be pretty different from the first twenty. No surprise there—many chapters, including ours, have embraced the “virtual” everything since mid-March. The handful of state TMN staff have worked very hard to convert an in-person, meals-and-lodging conference for 500 people from around the state with 150 concurrent sessions and 30 field trips into something quite different with a few months notice during a global pandemic. Good news is: great learning opportunities from the comfort of your recliner, porch rocking chair or a computer at the library. Four days for $55. For Master Naturalists, if you are behind, you can get all of your annual Advanced Training hours with this conference. Plenty of interesting topics and expert speakers.
