We live on a world of constant change. Join Temple Ambler EarthFest and the Academy of Natural Sciences for an outdoor, interactive event exploring those changes firsthand! The Academy of Natural Science is celebrating a "Year of Water." How essential is water to our lives and how are we impacting water quality? How do we face and mitigate the impacts of climate change? In the wake of the tornado that struck Temple University Ambler, what can we learn about natural disasters and how nature responds to them?
In addition to EarthFest and the Academy, participating organizations will include the Temple Ambler Field Station, the Ambler Arboretum of Temple University, the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region 3, Elmwood Park Zoo, Temple University Summer Education Camps, Temple University Summer Academy, the Global Water Alliance, Wissahickon Trails, Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC), the Temple student chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects, Cordes Lab, the Temple University Office of Sustainability, the Tyler School of Art and Architecture Greenhouse Education and Research Complex at Temple Ambler, Temple College of Science and Technology, Temple Department of Earth and Environmental Science, Temple Department of Biology and more! The event will include interactive exhibits, tours and hands-on exploration!
