Breakfast Lecture: The Science of Hydraulic Fracturing and Lessons for Colorado
2016-10-07 07:30 - 09:00
Oil and gas development in Colorado has become the source of many contentious policy debates in recent years. These debates often center on the potential risks and benefits associated with oil and gas development, including the use of hydraulic fracturing to access oil and gas resources, and the increased supply of fossil fuels made available by hydraulic fracturing.
Across these debates, questions about the status of the science of the costs and benefits of oil and gas development arise. A panel of University of Colorado researchers from the AirWaterGas Sustainability Research Network will explore questions such as:

What do we know about the health effects and safety of oil and gas development?
What is the current research on the air and water quality effects of oil and gas production?
How are local communities and industry interacting and working together to address potential risks?
What lessons might the current research suggest for policy and governance in Colorado?

Panelists:

Jana Milford, Professor, Mechanical Engineering, University of Colorado Boulder
John L. Adgate, PhD, MSPH, Professor and Chair, Department of Environmental and Occupational Health, Colorado School of Public Health
Harihar Rajaram, Professor, Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering, University of Colorado Boulder
Kathryn Mutz, Attorney and Director of the Intermountain Oil and Gas BMP (Best Management Practices) Project
Owen Sherwood, Research Associate, Institute for Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR), University of Colorado Boulder

Moderators: Professors Tanya Heikkila and Chris Weible, CU Denver School of Public Affairs
When: 7:30-9 a.m. Friday, Oct. 7, 2016
Where: Terrace Room (2nd floor), 1380 Lawrence Street, Denver (map)

Indigenous Film and Arts Festival
2016-10-09 18:00 - 20:00 | Denver Museum of Nature and Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver, CO, 80205, United States
The Denver Museum of Nature and Science in partnership with the International Institute for Indigenous Resource Management (IIIRM) presents the Indigenous Film and Arts Festival. Join DMNS for the opening night of the festival for a screening of Message from Mungo. A dessert & coffee reception will follow the film.

Message from Mungo (directors Andrew Pike and Ann McGrath). In 1969, erosion around Lake Mungo in New South Wales, Australia revealed the cremated remains of Mungo Woman – to western scientists, the earliest known cremation in the world; to the Aboriginal peoples of the area, their ancestor. The story is told through interviews with archeologists, local pastoralists, government parks and heritage officers, and members of the three traditional Aboriginal groups of the Mungo region (Mutthi Mutthi, Ngiampaa, and Barkindji/Paakintji). The Aboriginal communities are keen to have the film widely seen, as it affirms the importance of their heritage and history, and records their difficult struggle to gain a meaningful role in managing their heritage. (Ronin Films, 2014, 70 min.).
Chip Colwell, Senior Curator of Anthropology, will lead a post-screening discussion with the audience.
