The Clayoquot Biosphere Trust presents a public talk by biologist and writer Brian Harvey
February 23, 2010
7:30 PM at the Clayoquot Field Station in Tofino, B.C.
FREE!
Victoria-based biologist and writer Brian Harvey spent the first part of his career "practicing science" in fish conservation projects in Asia, South America and Canada, including Clayoquot Sound. Back home, all that work as a so-called “expert” got him thinking what it means to be a scientist. His talk for the Clayoquot Biosphere Trust will be about the use and abuse of science in a polarized world, and will range from disappearing penguins in Antartica to megalomaniac water projects in Brazil to sea lice and the collapse of Pacific salmon.
