Keeping Nature in our Future
Keeping Nature in our Future
During the last few months, the importance of keeping our natural world healthy has been heightened. Dr. Jasper Lament (CEO of The Nature Trust of British Columbia) will share how this organization is ensuring natural spaces and biodiversity are protected today and into the future. Join Jasper as he looks back at recent land conservation successes and outlines plans to continue this vital work with the help of individuals and organizations.
Please note: this will be an update of the presentation that Jasper gave to Nature Vancouver in November 2019 when we could do in-person, real-contact Thursday evenings.
Instructions for online participation.
This presentation will be aired via the Zoom videoconferencing. Here is the “how-to” information. Please note that even if you do not have a camera and audio on your computer, you can still join by telephone and so can hear the presentation (see info below).
- Download and install “Zoom Client for Meetings” from Zoom.us/download , where you will also find smartphone and tablet versions. You do not need to register a Zoom account. If you join the meeting without first installing, you will be prompted to install on the spot, which may leave you feeling rushed. Doing a self-test is recommended — at Zoom.us/test. You’ll get to test that the Zoom app is able to use your microphone and camera, and try out the meeting buttons.
- In the Monday May 11th Nature Vancouver e-news, you can find the link for this week’s Zoom presentation. To join the audience on May 14th, click on this link after 7pm. You may also need the meeting ID and password (also provided in the e-news). You can join by phone instead at 778-907-2071.
Email Denis info@NatureVancouver.ca if you need help. - To socialize before 7:30 we encourage you to turn on your microphone and camera; turn them both off at 7:30. In the Q&A after the talk, please type in your questions using the “chat” sidebar.
