Everyone loves puffins, but this charismatic species faces mounting threats from fossil emissions and climate change. Derrick Z. Jackson, a national award-winning journalist who is also co-author and photographer of Project Puffin and The Puffin Plan about the world’s first restored Atlantic Puffin colony off the coast of Maine, argues that environmentalism and environmental justice are intimately intertwined – and that curbing pollution for families in places like southeast Chicago with nearby toxic industries will help calm the climatic conditions that drive fish away from puffins half a continent away.
This program is part of the Compelling Voices in Birding and Conservation Series sponsored by the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, the Chicago Ornithological Society and the Chicago Audubon Society. Lake/Cook Chapter and Illinois Audubon Society are visiting sponsors for this speaker.
