SUMMARY:Black Ash Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Sharing Traditional and Scientific Knowledge \nRegistration is now open for the Black Ash Symposium to be held at the University of Maine November 5th – 7th\, 2014. \nThe unifying theme of the symposium will focus on the biology and ecology of black ash throughout North America. We will be bringing together researchers\, state and national agencies\, students\, and tribal members to update our knowledge on a rare and rarely studied species whose populations are threatened by the emerald ash borer. By highlighting what we know\, we will be able to clarify what important knowledge is needed to manage and sustain black ash in the landscape. \nThe event will be held at the Buchanan Alumni House (November 5th) and the George J. Mitchell Sustainability Center (November 7th) on the University of Maine campus. We will spend Thursday out in the field visiting local black ash stands in Maine. \nIf you would like to register for the symposium\, please complete the registration form below no later than Monday\, October 13th\, 2014. \nRegistration form \nIf you have any questions\, please contact:\nKara Lorion

SUMMARY:Seminar: Yong Chen\, Christine Beitl
DESCRIPTION:Collaborative Interdisciplinary Research for Understanding Bycatch in the Maine Lobster Fishery \nYong Chen and Christine Beitl\nSchool of Marine Sciences\, Dept. of Anthropology\, University of Maine \nIn this seminar\, Chen and Beitl will discuss their research on bycatch\, the incidental catch of non-target species\, which represents both an ecological and social problem in fisheries management. The decision of fishers to keep or discard bycatch caught in a targeted fishery is based on a fisher’s knowledge\, understanding\, and attitudes about the non-targeted species and their perceived insights about potential survivability of discarded fish. Bycatch is a widespread problem in fisheries management and its causes are complicated. The team will discuss their cooperative approach involving the participation of practitioners\, policy makers\, NGOs\, and fishers.

SUMMARY:Seminar - Chris Feurt
DESCRIPTION:Evolving Approaches to Collaborative Learning and Boundary Spanning in Sustainability Science \nChristine Feurt\, University of New England \nHow can busy researchers work with even busier managers to facilitate effective application of science to address complex environmental challenges? Sustainability science offers a framework for integrating the perspectives and expertise of interdisciplinary scientists and managers and focusing their collaborative efforts toward solutions. Success in these partnerships can be enhanced when a “boundary spanner” assumes the critical role of negotiating the gulf separating science and management. For over a decade the Wells NERR Coastal Training Program has used a Collaborative Learning approach to bridge science and management. This seminar examines the elements that contribute to the effectiveness of this approach and proposes an increased emphasis on building boundary spanning competencies and resources to address the challenges of sustainability science.

SUMMARY:Seminar - Cindy Isenhour
DESCRIPTION:Materials Management through Sustainable Consumption: Research\, Policy and Practice \nCindy Isenhour\, Dept. of Anthropology\, UMaine \nA significant body of research suggests that production efficiencies are unlikely to result in environmental improvements adequate to avoid “dangerous” climate change\, resource depletion\, and increasingly significant waste management issues. This is\, in part\, because rapidly growing levels of consumption are outpacing efficiency improvements globally (OECD 2008\, Jenkins et. al. 2011\, EEA 2014). These findings have increased awareness of and policy support for engaging communities in more effective materials management practices (EEA 2014). Emerging policies designed to support re-use and sharing economies reflect this growing recognition (Agyeman 2013\, Orsi 2013\, Oregon DEQ 2012\, EEA 2014). Dr. Isenhour’s seminar builds upon these findings and her own research to: 1) review recent efforts to measure the environmental impacts of consumption – and the economic\, social and environmental value of re-use economies; 2) outline a proposed research program designed to measure the economic\, ecological\, social and cultural value of Maine’s reuse economy; and 3) provide an overview of several existing policies that might be implemented in Maine to improve materials management and reduce emissions through sustainable consumption.

SUMMARY:Seminar - John Hagan
DESCRIPTION:John Hagan\, President\, Manomet Center for Conservation Sciences \nThe science of when science doesn’t matter (and what to do about it) \nWhy does society make such painfully slow progress on issues that have such huge consequences\, like climate change?  The science seems so overwhelming.  But until most of society participates\, problems this big won’t be solved.  Conservatives\, liberals\, North\, South\, urban\, rural\, religious\, areligious\, etc.\, etc.\, will all need to participate.  Activating this diverse cross section is going to require a fundamentally new approach to problem solving.
