Global Extinction, Beer, and French

6PM Tonight’s Golden Beer Talk features Bob Raynolds, PhD. His topic is Australopithecines to the Anthropocene: A Geologist’s View of Where We Came from and Where We Are Going

We are currently living in a geological age that has been referred to as the Anthropocene, a period in which human activity has become the dominant influence on our world, our climate, and our environment, an era of accelerated extinctions and oil…. The world is changing and the rate of change is leading to the Great Acceleration. Young people are coming of age with the realization that we have brought them into life on a planet in peril; they are begging us to pay attention, to act. Perhaps these digital natives will lead us into a new world that we can only dimly discern.

Tonight’s featured brewery is Cannonball Creek Brewing. Gluten-free beer from Holidaily Brewing is also available, along with a full bar and food offerings. Golden Beer Talks take place in the events venue at the Buffalo Rose. The doors open at 6PM and the talk starts at about 6:30.
