Dr. Tom Wessels, Professor of Ecology and founding director fo the Masters Degree Program in Conservation Biology in the Department of Environmental Studies at Antioch New England Graduate School in Keene, will speak about "The Myth of Progress and The Laws of Sustainability" at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow evening at St. Johns Church in Walpole as part of the Lepovsky Lecture Series.
Wessles, author of the recent READING THE FORESTED LANDSCAPE: A NATURAL HISTORY OF NEW ENGLAND, will discuss how our generally accepted paradigm of progress in our culture runs contrary to basic laws of sustainability. Having heard Tom speak in other contexts, I can assure you that you will find it a profoundly stimulating, enlightening evening. Refreshments follow the talk which is free and open to the public.
