SUMMARY:From Cold Spring Park to Planet Earth
DESCRIPTION:Human Impacts across the Landscape\nDan Perlman\nConservation B
 iologist\n\nThink you know Cold Spring Park? Concerned about the future of
  planet Earth? See them in a whole new light with biologist and photograph
 er Dan Perlman. Dan will discuss a wide range of human impacts at both the
  local and global levels. On the local level\, he will describe the histor
 y of the Cold Spring Park area since Newton was settled by Europeans. This
  part of the talk will be illustrated with maps\, aerial photos\, and phot
 ographs Dan has taken in the park for the past 18 months. During that peri
 od\, Dan has photographed the same scene twice every month\, creating a po
 werful teaching and learning tool he has shared with students in many of N
 ewton’s public schools.\n\nFor the discussion of global impacts\, Dan wi
 ll use materials from Conserving Earth’s Biodiversity\, a CD-ROM that he
  and Harvard biologist Professor E.O. Wilson co-developed. It is hailed by
  one by one scientist as "…a breakthrough in science teaching through in
 teractive multimedia. The combination of E.O. Wilson's on-screen narration
 \, and Dan Perlman's educational design and content make this production a
  must for science students and teachers." Signed copies of the CD (at a $1
 0 discount) will be available for sale at the lecture to benefit the Newto
 n Conservators and the Newton Free Library. Dan has also graciously offere
 d copies the CD-ROM as a holiday gift to our members. This multimedia CD i
 s called Conserving Earth's Biodiversity and will make a perfect gift for 
 anyone who on your holiday list who shares your interest in the environmen
 t and open space conservation. A portion of the proceeds from each CD sold
  will go into our treasury to cover expenses associated with open space pr
 eservation.\n\nAbout the Speaker\nDan taught conservation biology at Harva
 rd for nine years\, where he won the Phi Betta Kappa Excellence in Teachin
 g Award. He has joined the biology faculty at Brandeis University. Over th
 e past half dozen years\, Dan has also offered science programs in nearly 
 all of the Newton Public Schools. For further info\, please contact Dan Pe
 rlman at (617) 969-3047.
