RSC Featured Guest Speakers
Date: Friday, November 5, 7 p.m.
Renowned conservationist and environmental writer William DeBuys will read and share photos from his “accidental trilogy” (A Great Aridness, The Last Unicorn and Trail to Kanjiroba).
He will describe this journey from cataloguing climate threats in the southwestern United States, to tracking the last of a species in the deep forests of Lao PDR, to accompanying medical missions in the remote Himalaya of Nepal. Along the way he witnessed grievous environmental depredations, but also found himself on a redeeming pilgrimage to hope – hope that humanity can care for, albeit not cure, our ailing planet.
