SUMMARY:CST: Experiment with Living Willow Structures @ South River Art Studios Community Garden
DESCRIPTION:Experiment with Living Willow Structures @ South River Art Studios Community Garden \nDate: February 1st\, 2024 \nTime: 11am \nLocation: South River Art Studios 1300 Fleetwood Dr SE\, Atlanta\, GA 30316 \nParking: ample and free \nFences and canopies don’t have to be made from wood and metal and such. Living structures can be made from Willow! In this workshop we will: \n\nLearn to identify the continent’s largest and most common willow species\, Salix nigra\, also known as black willow\, swamp willow\, sauz\, or gulf black willow. \nLearn about the tree’s ecological importance\, medicinal and other human uses\, and its history and mythology.\nDiscuss the practice of coppicing trees\, how to do it\, and why.\n(HANDS ON!!!) Assist with the harvesting and planting of willow whips to create a living structure(s) for the garden.\n\n  \n \nJulia Hill is a multi-disciplinary artist using drawing\, painting\, sculpture\, and our extensive waste stream to explore ecological themes. This workshop is part of a series of projects that will explore how regenerative ecological practices and public art can intersect. \nIn addition to her studio pursuits\, her business Sculpture Things provides a suite of services including custom fabrication\, art direction\, project management\, and public art installation services for the region’s creative industries. \nClimate Survival Training

SUMMARY:CST: Red Wiggler Wrangling - DIY Worm Farming
DESCRIPTION:Red Wiggler Wrangling – DIY Worm Farming!\nPostponed due to Inclement weather – New date Saturday\, February 15th\nSaturday\, February 15\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00am – 1:30pm\nSalem-Panola Library\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5137 Salem Rd\, Stonecrest\, GA 30038 \nA hands on vermiculture workshop by Science for Georgia. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWant to make friends with Earth’s most benevolent creature? RSVP to claim one of 20 worm farm kits at this dual lecture/interactive workshop! Worm farming\, or vermiculture\, is a method of composting using specific species of worms that can transform scraps into nutrients three times as fast as your average compost pile while requiring even less maintenance. The species we will be focusing on\, colloquially known as the Red Wiggler\, are exceptionally resilient and well suited to live undetected inside your home or out. \nVermiculture makes a rewarding hobby\, connects us with nature\, and teaches valuable lessons about a circular economy. If you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint\, purify your soil\, protect your crops\, reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers\, or just ground yourself with the rhythms of life\, look no further than the RSVP button below! \nWe will begin the session with some scientific context on the significance of these humble invertebrates and their effect on soil and environmental health\, learn tips about re-using & recycling material\, and learn how to make choices for your worms based on your outcome goals. Next\, our resourceful volunteers will lead us through manipulating 5-gallon buckets with power tools for a suitable dwelling fit for a Red Wiggler. \nBring a friend or family member\, let’s roll up our sleeves\, and dig deep into the science and methods of maintaining a healthy environment for your new clean up crew\, the Red Wiggler worms! \nPlease note: attendees MUST come to this CST in closed-toe shoes and clothes you are comfortable working in or getting a little messy. If you would like to bring your own containers (to better fit your space)\, please indicate so on the sign-up form. We encourage attendees to bring your own materials (power drills\, sandpaper\, eye protection\, etc) if you would like to reduce your waiting time. Please bring extra towels or tarps if you are worried about transporting your system home. \n  \nWant to bring your own containers? Use the guide below to help you find containers suitable for your space!  \n \n \n\n\n  \nClimate Survival Training

SUMMARY:Monthly South River Water Testing - Feb
DESCRIPTION:Date: Sunday\, Feb 16\, 2025 \nTime: 10 am \nLocation: Everett Park \nAddress: 5106 Klondike Rd\, Stonecrest\, GA 30038 \nWe will linger in the parking lot for 5-10 minutes before heading down the trail along the water to those first shoals\, where we will be doing our testing and mingling etc…. \nThis past year at our Environmental Justice Forums/Townhalls we heard that people want to know more about what health risks from water and air are in their neighborhoods. So we have started on two approaches to that. First is the water testing project mentioned above. Adopt-A-Stream is a state program consisting of volunteers collecting data on the water sources in their neighborhoods and the area around Everett Park along the South River is not represented in this testing project. So we are getting this started\, not just to gather and monitor data\, but to help the community learn about water testing along the way.

SUMMARY:GSJ: Fighting Misinformation
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 20th\, 7-9 pm \nIn-Person and Streaming \nLocation: Manuel’s Tavern \nFeatured Speaker: Michael Czajkowski\, PhD\n \nThings can be better: How to change minds and fight misinformation \n  \nThings feel quite scary right now for a lot of us. We face severe threats both on a political level and perhaps also from some members of our own families and communities. And it is because we do not agree\, we do not see the same things. \nBut the title of the talk is true\, things can be a lot better. The people who don’t agree could be seeing so much more of your side of things. We could be bringing far more of the voters in this country along with us on a path or growth and learning. And it is imperative that we do so. Learn hands-on in this workshop what are the key ingredients to changing minds and fighting misinformation. \n \nSpeaker Name: Michael Czajkowski \nSpeaker Bio: \nMichael got their PhD in Physics in 2018 after helping found a science policy graduate student group at Syracuse University. As an IGERT fellow\, they received additional training in communication and advocacy in the Falk College Department of Public Health and the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. Michael moved to Atlanta to work as a postdoc in metamaterial physics at Georgia Tech and has been involved with Science for Georgia for six of those years. Michael is also a volunteer with family education at Decatur Makers\, is a local community organizer\, and was faculty in the 2024 Citizen Science course at Bard College. \n  \nScience of Redistricting
