SUMMARY:Biology Department presents Renee Petipas
DESCRIPTION:The Biology Department Spring 2025 Seminar Series presents Renee Petipas\, a lecturer at the University of Vermont and a global change biologist who studies how aspects of global change — including habitat loss\, nitrogen deposition\, and extreme weather events — affect plant-microbe interactions\, microbe-mediated phenotypes\, and emergent properties.

SUMMARY:Colloquium Speaker Series: Amy Frazier
DESCRIPTION:A Geographic Approach for Co-designing and Implementing ‘30×30’ Conservation Goals\n\nThe world is at a tipping point for biodiversity\, with over a million species threatened with extinction and climate change driving a redistribution of life on Earth. The recent Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework addresses some of these grand challenges by recommending that at least 30% of land and water be protected by 2030 (colloquially called “30×30”). However\, while agreements like these are a good start\, they are rarely successful in practice\, in part because there is often a disconnect between the geographic data and models being produced by scientists and the information that is needed for conservation decision-making on the ground. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Frazier will discuss how her team is working with various partners around the world to implement conservation projects to protect the planet and how an effective co-design approach can overcome some of the challenges of using geographic methods for conservation decision-making. Woven throughout are examples of how a geographic approach\, and particularly an understanding of the impacts of scale on analyses\, can enhance this decision-making. \nAmy Frazier is the Jack and Laura Dangermond Endowed Chair of Conservation Science at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. She previously held faculty appointments at Arizona State University and Oklahoma State University. Dr. Frazier holds an A.B. in environmental earth science from Dartmouth College\, an M.A. in geography from West Chester University\, and a Ph.D. in geography from the University at Buffalo. Dr. Frazier’s research focuses on integrating remote sensing\, GIS\, and landscape ecology to study global environmental change\, specifically to prevent the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services.

SUMMARY:Colloquium Speaker Series: Jenny Goldstein
DESCRIPTION:Starting with solutions: A Global Political Ecology of Algae Innovation\n \nNature–society scholars have taken on the green energy transition — but what about green materials? Despite the fossil fuel extraction and high emissions profiles associated with cement\, fertilizers\, and plastics\, there is little critical research on possible alternatives or on how a transition to a green materials future might take shape. Seaweed\, however\, is increasingly touted by scientists\, policymakers\, and investors for its potential as a climate-responsive replacement for fossil fuels in industrial applications such as plastics\, fertilizers\, fuels\, and animal feed.  \nThis talk presents preliminary research from the North Atlantic and Southeast Asia on the political–ecological dimensions of technological innovation in the global seaweed industry. Dr. Goldstein first outlines the current barriers to and consequences of scaling up seaweed cultivation for a low-carbon future. She then argues that the bio-technical innovation of turning seaweed into a climate-responsive technology is a crucial locus of power through which to understand how the green materials transition may reproduce\, or reconfigure\, global development dynamics. \nJenny Goldstein is an assistant professor of global development at Cornell University\, an Atkinson Center for Sustainability faculty fellow\, and a core faculty member of Cornell’s Southeast Asian Studies Program. Jenny\, who is also the Director of Cornell’s Center for Social Sciences Qualitative and Interpretive Research Institute (QuIRI)\, is a political ecologist and human geographer who studies how data infrastructures\, digital technologies\, and artificial intelligence mediate nature-society relations. Her current research investigates the role of seaweed in shaping the future of green industrial materials within the global bioeconomy. \n
