Friend of SRC, and Volvo Prize winner Prof. Terry Chapin will give a webinar on Thursday 20.00 EDT (2.00 Friday in Stockholm_ on his new book “Grassroots Stewardship: Sustainability Within Our Reach.”

You can join on Facebook thttps://www.facebook.com/uafairbanks or Zoom at http://bit.ly/chapin-grassroots-zoom. The event will be recorded on Facebook if you want to watch it at a different time. Terry says: The book is written for both general readers and scholars who care about the future of nature and society. It presents a positive vision for the future, a strategy for moving toward sustainability, actions that individuals can take to make this happen, and reasons to think this goal is feasible. For me, this seems like the most important thing I’ve written. It describes the ideas behind my work in Earth Stewardship for which I was awarded the Volvo Environment Prize last year.
