The 2nd Annual Forward Together Lecture
Featuring renowned environmental journalist Richard Manning
“In Wildness Is the Resurrection of Our World\\"
Tuesday 30 \;March
7\:30 pm\, Education Auditorium\, University of Regina \;
\\"Six thousand years of agriculture have created ecological crisis throughout the world\, but nowhere is the story more dramatic than in the North American grassland. But here also\, nature has given us clear instructions as to how we must redesign agriculture and economy to resurrect the creative power of the plains. These instructions point the way not only to ecological restoration\, but also to revived economy and human well-being.\\"
Richard Manning has worked as a consultant on agriculture\, poverty and the environment to the McKnight Foundation\, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations\, and he has spent over thirty years as a journalist in Montana and Idaho. Manning has written numerous award-winning essays\, magazine articles and books\, and in 1995 he was the recipient of a John S Knight Fellowship from Stanford University. His recent books include Against the Grain\: How Agriculture Has Hijacked Civilization (2004) and Rewilding the West\: Restoration in a Prairie Landscape (2009). Manning teaches at the University of Montana and resides near Missoula.

his award-winning documentary The Antarctica Challenge\: A Global Warning
on April 7\, 2010\, at the Education Auditorium\, Room 106\, at the
University of Regina. The film\, which is appropriate for a family
audience\, begins at 7\:00 p.m.
The film reports on diminishing populations of penguins and marine
life\, grass growing in the world’s largest desert\, startling new data
on the ozone hole and the imminent rise in the world’s sea level due
to the accelerated melting of Antarctica’s land ice. Terry is touring
with the film to continue his mission of educating people about these
new environmental discoveries. He will be available to answer questions
following the film.
“The land ice is melting at a much faster rate than any of us had
previously realized\,” said Terry. “A larger volume of fresh water is
now being added to the world’s seas posing a threat to coastal
communities.”
The film was the only one officially invited by the United Nations to
screen to delegates and world leaders attending COP15\, the Climate
Change Conference in Copenhagen last December. With more than 25
screenings during the two-week conference\, the film made an impact on
the delegates with its message of Antarctica’s rapidly-changing
environment.
This event is sponsored by the Office of Energy and Environment and the
Canadian Plains Research Centre at the University of Regina\, and
LaBodega.
