The Consortium for Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability (CESAS) and its partners will host the Eighteenth Annual Dialog on Sustainability on “Ecosystem Restoration” on Saturday morning, July 22, 2023, using Zoom. This year’s dialog will focus on ecosystem
restoration with an emphasis on the use of phytotechnologies for ecosystem restoration to improve soil quality and improve carbon sequestration and productive value of brownfields. This is the United Nations decade on ecosystem restoration because of the global need to improve soil health and the production of food and other products using vegetation. Carbon sequestration is very important in the efforts to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions. Ecosystem restoration of lands impacted by military operations will be included. The anticipated audience will include environmental professionals, faculty, students, land owners, community leaders, and members of environmental organizations.
We invite individuals, communities, and organizations to participate by joining the dialog using Zoom. There is no registration fee, but please pre-register by sending your name and contact information (affiliation, phone and e-mail address) to Sheree Walsh, chsr@ksu.edu so that we will have an electronic connecting line for you, and can inform you on how to connect. Upon receiving your registration, we will send you the Zoom connection link and information for the webinar.
