DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker Chancellor Lorne Everett will present a lecture on his experience over 35 years as Chairman within the World Federation of Scientist. Dr Everett will present insights into nuclear war\, world pollution\, plastics\, the world water crisis\, asteroid impacts\, and other Planetary Emergencies and highlight environmental concerns closer to home. \nChancellor Lorne Everett will share his experience over 35 years as a Chairman within the World Federation of Scientists\, headquartered at CERN (home of the Large Hadron Collider) in Geneva Switzerland. The meetings on Nuclear War and Planetary Emergencies are chaired by the Science Advisor to the Pope and are held in 3 repurposed monasteries in Erice Sicily. Over 124 Nobel Laureates have participated in these meetings including numerous key players in the Manhattan Project. \nDr Everett will present insights into nuclear war\, world pollution\, plastics\, the world water crisis\, asteroid impacts\, and other Planetary Emergencies. Although the annual meeting in August is held in 3 monasteries in Sicily\, a second meeting is often held in the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in the Vatican. Rare pictures of the Pope’s private quarters and gardens will be shown. The Pope often sends a letter of welcome to our meetings and has been the keynote speaker. \n\nWhen: Sunday\, March 9\, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. (Remember to “spring forward” your clocks by 1 hour for daylight saving on Sun\, March 9th)\nWhere: The Neal Taylor Nature Center at Cachuma Lake\nMeet and greet with light refreshments after the presentation.\nLecture and Admission to the Nature Center – Donation\n\nMore about our presenter \nLorne G.
