Earth Emergency Film Screening

Saturday, April 22, 2023 | 5:00pm | CAC Theater, 性色视频

Narrated by Richard Gere and featuring the Dalai Lama and Greta Thunberg, Earth Emergency explores how human activity sets in motion Earth鈥檚 own natural warming mechanisms, releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and further warming the planet. Leading climate scientists examine this missing piece of the climate puzzle which is pushing the climate to a tipping point.

     - 5:30pm - Film Screening

     - 6:30pm - Panel Discussion

Panelists

Bonnie Waltch, Filmmaker
Bonnie Waltch is the award-winning senior producer and writer of the one-hour PBS and international broadcast documentary, Earth Emergency, and series of five short films, Climate Emergency: Feedback Loops, narrated by Richard Gere. She has worked for a variety of television science series such as NOVA, Scientific American Frontiers, and Discover Magazine. She has produced, directed, and written films for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, the Pikes Peak Visitor Center, the Tennessee State Museum, the Mob Museum, and the National World War II Museum, among others. She was executive director of Filmmakers Collaborative, a nonprofit support organization for independent filmmakers, for 10 years. She is about to begin yet another round of querying her incubator novel, Finding Black Jaguar. 

Stan Cox, Land Institute
Stan did his graduate work in plant breeding at Iowa State and performed the field research phase (on sorghum) at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics in Patancheru, India. After graduation in 1983, Stan worked for 13 years as a wheat geneticist for the USDA Agricultural Research Service in Manhattan, Kansas. There, he worked developing new disease-resistant wheat germplasm using hybrids between wheat and its wild ancestral species. Since joining The Land Institute in 2000, Stan has been working on developing perennial sorghum.  Stan has transitioned in early 2020 into a new position as .

Dr. Holger Meyer, Professor of Physics, WSU
Dr. Holger Meyer's area of research is experimental high energy particle physics. He also has a background in nuclear physics. He worked at Brookhaven National Laboratory and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory before he moved to 性色视频. His current research is in neutrino physics. He is a member of the collaborations that perform the currently running neutrino long baseline experiment NOvA (Fermilab, Batavia, IL to Ash River, MN) and construct the future long baseline experiment DUNE (Fermilab, Batavia, IL to Lead, SD). With colleagues at 性色视频, NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, and other universities he is investigating the feasibility and physics interest in detecting neutrinos in space. Dr. Meyer also has an interest in climate science and environmental physics.
