Meet Your Neighbor: Nancy Hazard

Thursday, April 21, 2022, 7:00 pm until 8:00 pm
Online

Join us to Meet Your Neighbor, with Nancy Hazard, via Zoom.

Nancy Hazard, a long-time climate activist, will talk about bees and birds and how she took a U-Turn 15-years ago from advocating for renewable energy and using less fossil fuels, after reading a book called Bringing Nature Home, by Doug Tallamy.

“With honey-bee collapse much in the news, Doug’s book got me to thinking about what insects need to thrive, when I learned how important they are in making life on earth possible. The more I learned the more I realized that supporting nature is as important as stopping our use of fossil fuels, the main cause of climate change – and it is fascinating! It is also something we can all do locally.”

Nancy will talk about what she has learned from Tallamy, and his PhD student, Dr. Desiree Narango, who lives locally and studied chickadees. Nancy will also discuss why planting native plants is important, her fascination with spring ephemeral flowers, and her work with Greening Greenfield and the Greenfield Tree Committee.
