Success of Tahoe to be subject of talk

How collaboration, citizen science and community participation in conservation has kept Lake Tahoe blue will be the subject of a talk on May 23 in Reno.

This is part of a lecture series created by DRI and The Discovery.

Lake Tahoe’s global successes in environmental research and conservation are credited to collaboration between nonprofit organizations, community members, and scientists. Speakers will touch on those relationships, discuss the ecological history of the lake, key policies, and education programs that have made these successes possible.

Darcie Collins from the League to Save Lake Tahoe, Alan Heyvaert from DRI, and Sudeep Chandra from UNR will share their experiences in citizen science, community engagement, and stewardship.

Doors open at 7pm, presentation begins at 7:30pm at Patagonia Outlet, 130 S. Center St., Reno.
