Dear NES Network, The 11th Annual Nature Ecology Society Colloquium will take place on Friday, March 2nd, from 10 am to 4 pm (with a reception beginning at 4 pm) in the Martin Segal Theatre of the CUNY Graduate Center. Our theme for this year is "Imagining Sustainability in the NYC Region." Please join us for a day of presentations, discussions and collaborations. This year's programming will be a bit different from recent years, with greater time dedicated to collaborative group discussions. We will have a morning panel, followed by lunch, and an afternoon of collaborative roundtables. Please visit the NES website (opencuny.org/nature) for more information about the program. As always, the NES Colloquium is a space where participants can meet others working on relevant research or projects, discuss and develop ideas, and collaborate on research, actions, or both. We hope to have scholars, practitioners, government representatives, engaged citizens, and everybody in between concerned with issues of sustainability in the NYC region. You may even bring any brochures, periodicals, papers, or other materials to share. Also, please feel free to forward this invitation. Same as years past, there will be FREE LUNCH with preference to those who register. To register, please go to our website (opencuny.org/nature) or copy and past the following address into your browser ( https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?pli=1&formkey=dGlrR0ktRHVsU0lIcTh3azVVSWFkLXc6MQ#gid=0 ) Lastly, we are happy to announce that open nominations are being accepted for the 2012 PSC CUNY Environmental Justice Awards! The awards session will take place immediately following the afternoon session on March 2nd, 2012.
