Make-up Work/Extra Credit


--Make-up Work/Extra credit this term will usually consist of attending presentations related to Environmental and/or sustainability issues, as well as some volunteer work I will identify appropriate options as I become aware of them. If you know of something coming up, let me know and I will consider including it.

Unless otherwise noted, each Makeup Work/Extra Credit option is worth 10 points. The options are available to anyone. There is a class limit of 40 extra credit points (excluding points for reusing paper for assignments). To receive the extra credit points, you must follow the instructions noted with each one.
Also, all volunteer work is on a first come/first served basis. There are no guarantees that volunteer opportunities are available. Contact the person noted.

For most presentations, you must have your notes signed by the responsible person/event organizer at end of the presentation, and turned into Steve Cook OR Drew Bennett for 3PM MWF Section.

The speaker's name, topic, time, and place of the presentation must be clearly written on the notes. It is also necessary to have a signature for volunteer work, indicating the number of hours you worked. Turn ALL MU/EC work into Steve Cook or Drew Bennett for 3PM MWF Section directly--it is best to just give it to us in lecture.

All Extra Credit write-ups must be turned in during lecture within ten days of the event. Everything for credit in Geog 300 MUST have: Your Name; TA Name; Recitation Time and Date and Title of Event or it will not be recorded

We will accept no Extra Credit write-ups after 5:00 PM Friday March 17. Steve Cook has an envelope on his office door, 140 WLKN. Don't put stuff in my mailbox in the CEOAS admin building, I don't check it often. Don't put stuff into TA mailboxes, it'll get lost.

"Advocating for Lasting Legal Protection for the Atmosphere"
The Oregon Sierra Club is hosting Gordon Levitt, Climate Law Fellow for Our Children’s Trust.
Gordon Levitt will discuss OCT’s local and national work in securing the legal right to a stable climate and a healthy atmosphere for all and future generations. He will also explain the YouCAN (Youth Climate Action Now) program:
YouCAN is a program developed by OCT that trains and supports youth, their families, and other supporters to engage in civic participation with local government.
YouCAN is involved in petitioning governments in adopting locally-tailored climate recovery laws, and advocacy.
Levitt will explain OCT’s national work in advocating for lasting legal protection for the atmosphere, oceans, and the Earth’s natural resources in the form of binding greenhouse emission reduction targets and climate recovery planning in line with the best available science. He will explain how it’s possible to join the YouCAN (Youth Climate Action Now) effort in Corvallis.
The YouCAN program began in Eugene, Oregon, where YouCAN youth successfully worked with the Eugene City Council in 2014 to pass the first ever climate recovery ordinance in the U.S. that incorporates a scientific prescription for viable climate recovery.
This talk is sponsored by the Oregon Sierra Club, and Our Children’s Trust

Oregon Climate Change Research Institute: unparalleled regional climate services, and an update on climate change in Oregon from our 2017 assessment report
OCCRI, established by the legislature and started at OSU in 2009, now hosts two regional climate enterprises, one for NOAA and one for the US Department of the Interior. In addition, the USDA established its Northwest Regional Climate Hub in Corvallis to take advantage of these other two, creating the strongest alignment of the three networks anywhere in the country. These enterprises work with stakeholders in the Northwest to define and carry out a decision-relevant research agenda, train and educate graduate students and agency staff, and use available tools to inform decisions. OCCRI, in addition, collaborates with faculty, staff, and students at a total of 10 other institutions on approximately 25 current projects. The state requires OCCRI to produce a periodic assessment report, which was just released January 25, and illustrates new evidence about the ways that climate change is affecting the state and the region.

"Wolf OR-7 Expedition"
The Wolf OR-7 Expedition team retraced by bicycle and on foot the approximate route taken by a GPS - collared wolf called Wolf OR-7. The wolf was born in NE Oregon and in 2011 left his pack and dispersed South to find new territory. He became the first known wolf in California in nearly 90 years, and he is still out there...
Follow six adventurers as they retrace the route taken by a GPS-collared Oregon wolf. Their mission is to explore human-wolf coexistence and meet the people along Wolf OR-7's route who now find themselves in wolf country.
Immediately following the film showing, we have a crackerjack panel of Wolf People:
Bill Ripple, OSU Professor of Forestry, Director, Trophic Cascades Program, World-acclaimed researcher on the landscape ecology of the wolf, Rachael Pecore-Valdez, Wolf OR-7 Expedition Coordinator and star of the film (other than OR-7, Rob Kalvin’s, Oregon Wild, Northeast Oregon Field Coordinator

We live during a crucial period of human history on Earth. Anthropogenic environmental changes are occurring on global scales at unprecedented rates. Despite a long history of environmental intervention, never before has the collective impact of human behaviors threatened all of the major bio-systems on the planet. Decisions we make today will have significant consequences for the basic conditions of all life into the indefinite future. What should we do? How should we behave? In what ways ought we organize and respond? The future of the world as we know it depends on our actions today. Stephen M. Gardiner, Professor of Philosophy at University of Washington, Seattle.
