Green Drinks looks at bees

Posted

BROOKINGS – The Brookings Sustainability Council is hosting Green Drinks at 6 p.m. Thursday at Wooden Legs Brewing Company, 309 Fifth St.

Every month people from around the world meet up at informal sessions known as Green Drinks. The event is free and open to everyone.

The topic for this Green Drinks will be Jonathan Lundgren’s discussion, “The Truth Behind the Bee Problem?”

Lundgren is an agroecologist, director of ECDYSIS Foundation and CEO for Blue Dasher Farm. His research program focuses on assessing the ecological risk of pest management strategies and developing long-term solutions for sustainable food systems.

His ecological research focuses heavily on conserving healthy biological communities within agroecosystems by reducing disturbance and increasing biodiversity within cropland.
