Why We Need to Pollute the Environment More, to Pollute it Less - TedX Winnipeg
Our very own Pauline Gerrard is taking to the TedX Winnipeg stage on June 6 to explain why we need to pollute the environment more, in order to pollute it less.
Pauline Gerrard, interim executive director of IISD Experimental Lakes Area, will take to the stage on June 6, 2024 as part of TedX Winnipeg.
She will be explaining why we need to pollute the environment more, in order to pollute it less.
To support her intentionally provocative statement, she will showcase the world's freshwater laboratory as a shining example of that 'whole-ecosystem experimentation' model, explore links to traditional knowledge, and set out a path forward.
If you're in Winnipeg, you can buy tickets to attend online. If not, you can livestream the event on the day.
