Ignacio Chapela's Walk, Talk, and Buck the Fence featuring Iain Boal
(Event is held every Wed at 5pm)
“What’s at stake in the Ecology of Berkeley’s Strawberry Canyon.” We will engage in public surveys of the perimeter of the wildscapes at stake in the next proposed steps for the filling of the Canyon by the UC-LBL Rad-Labs, and now British Petroleum. Bring weather-appropriate clothing, sturdy shoes, maybe some food, and share this walk, while you still can, with experts in: History, Biotech, Politics, Energy, Privatization of Public Spaces and Public Discourse, Ecology, Wildlife, Urbanization, Poetry and Music. Meet and start at Memorial Oak Grove, 5 pm Wednesdays. Iain Boal is a science historian and author who will give his perspective on the role of the grove in local politics and ecology.
