YALE SCIENCE COMMUNICATION PRESENTS: “MODERN PROBLEMS, MODERN SOLUTIONS: AN OUTLOOK TO THE FUTURE” 

The beauty and complexity of the natural world inspire the artistic expression of all kinds – poetry, paintings, songs, and more. Natural environments can also be a deep source of inspiration for many different kinds of scientists. From the atmosphere that envelopes our planet to the aquatic habitats that cover it, to the creatures that share it with us, understanding our environment is helping us to develop cutting-edge technologies that improve our lives and make the whole planet a better place to be. As humans, we face significant challenges that are unique to our modern era, but we can overcome these challenges by grounding our innovations in the natural world. Join the Essex Library community on Thursday, June 24 at 7 p.m. for the fourth of our virtual Science In The News talks to hear Yale scientists from three different fields share their outlooks on upcoming technologies that draw inspiration from nature and preserve our natural environments.  

This virtual talk on Zoom is free and open to the public. Registration is required. To register, or for more information, please see https://www.youressexlibrary.org/adult-services/adults-featured-events/ or call the Essex Library at 860-767-1560.
