SUMMARY:Objects & objectivities: Convergences in epistemic divergence
DESCRIPTION:An art exhibit of paintings\, photographs\, and scientific imaging\, featuring the work of Linda Vigdor\, Ye He\, and Andrew Reinmann. \nPlease register to attend the exhibition opening and reception on Thursday\, November 21\, 2019. The exhibit will be available for viewing until December 21\, 2019. \nIt may be reasonably argued that science\, at least in part\, is driven by humans’ desire to control nature\, as well as a belief that we can\, and should (or are entitled to do so). From this vantage point comes a not unrelated notion of objectivity – that the truths of scientific knowledge and observation are unfettered by human biases. Objectivity\, in this picture\, is truth. The works in this exhibition present different orientations to objectivity as each investigates some aspect of the mechanisms\, outcomes\, and questions regarding the intersection of the brain and our environment\, from different epistemological lenses.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Science for Everyone: Making the Most of your Science Communication
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED DUE TO ANTICIPATED INCLEMENT WEATHER. \nSarah McAnulty is a squid biologist and the executive director of the science communication non-profit Skype a Scientist! She believes that the first step toward improving science literacy is making science feel more approachable by building connections between scientists and non-scientists. In Sarah’s talk\, she will discuss the many ways that scientists can get involved in their communities\, both local and online. She will highlight ways that every scientist\, from the extroverts to the introverts\, can make everyone feel that science has space for them. We will discuss how to break out from the “NPR crowd” to make maximum impact from science communication efforts.

SUMMARY:Environmental Sciences Seminar: Róisín Commane\, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Róisín Commane\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor\, Dept. of Earth & Environmental Sciences\, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University \nTitle: Interactions between Energy & Environment: Measuring Air Quality & Greenhouse Gases in NYC \nAbstract: Carbon dioxide (CO2)\, methane and nitrous oxide are potent greenhouse gases and emitted in large quantities from urban areas. CO2 emissions from combustion sources (such as power plants and vehicles) are closely tied to emissions of nitrogen dioxide (NO2)\, which produces ozone (O3) in the presence of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Although New York is the largest urban source of CO2 and NO2 in the US\, there have been limited CO2 measurements in the New York metro area until now. I will discuss our first steps to establish a comprehensive greenhouse gas measurement network around New York and preliminary results from measurements made in collaboration with NGENS. \nBio: Roisin is an Assistant Professor in the Dept. Earth and Environmental Sciences\, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University\, where her group examines multidisciplinary questions drawing together atmospheric chemistry\, composition and transport\, and terrestrial ecology. She has a PhD from University of Leeds\, UK in atmospheric chemistry and was a Research Associate at Harvard University 2009-2018.

SUMMARY:Environmental Sciences Seminar: Michael Menser\, Brooklyn College
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Michael Menser\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor\, Philosophy\, Urban Sustainability Studies\, Caribbean Studies\, Brooklyn College \nTitle: Resilience\, Participatory Budgeting and the New Civic Engagement Commission: The Role of CUNY \nAbstract: One year ago New Yorkers overwhelmingly approved ballot measures that made participatory budgeting city wide and created a new government organization\, the civic engagement commission\, which is supposed to promote interagency coordination and provide technical assistance to community boards. Mike Menser will discuss how both could help NYC become more equitable and resilient especially if they partnered with CUNY. \nBio: Dr. Michael Menser teaches Philosophy\, Urban Sustainability Studies\, and Caribbean Studies at Brooklyn College and Earth and Environmental Sciences and Environmental Psychology at the CUNY Graduate Center. He is an advisor for community engagement for the Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay and on the board of the Center for the Study of Brooklyn. He is the author of We Decide! Theories and Cases in Participatory Democracy (Temple 2018) and is a contributor to Prospects for Resilience: Insights from New York City’s Jamaica Bay (Island 2016). He is the co-founder and President of the Board of the Participatory Budgeting Project and helped launch one of the first PB processes in NYC working with the residents of Flatbush Brooklyn. Menser received his PhD from CUNY\, has taught at Brooklyn College since 1995 and is a member of the Professional Staff Congress union (PSC CUNY). His early research was in philosophy of biology and science and technology studies and he co-edited the volume Technoscience and Cyber-culture (Routledge 1996) and since then has published scholarly papers on the democratizing the food system\, political theory and democratizing the state\, and bioregionalism and urban resilience. His current research is on climate justice for urban socio-ecological systems and how to create more equity-enhancing\, effective\, informed\, and collaborative governance systems at different governmental levels in policies and programs such as the Green New Deal.
