Land conservation is a fundamental and vital bulwark to this perfect storm\, protecting our environment by ensuring essential ecological services. For more than a quarter century the Delaware Highlands Conservancy has been conserving the natural lands of the upper Delaware River watershed and now has a living laboratory in the Van Scott Nature Reserve.” Join us to learn how land conservation and sustainability help to protect present and future generations from the effects of this ‘perfect environmental storm.’ \nAttendees will enjoy a delicious brunch buffet catered by Settlers Inn at the Boiler Room inside the Hawley Silk Mill. After the presentation\, there will be an opportunity to ask questions and join the discussion. \nEvent tickets are $75 per person and include a $25 charitable contribution to the Delaware Highlands Conservancy. Proceeds from this special fall fundraiser will support the Conservancy’s mission to protect the working farms and forests\, clean waters\, and wildlife habitat of the Upper Delaware River region\, now and for future generations. \nRegister Now [icon name=”angle-double-right”] \nAbout the Presenter\, Dr. Michael Cann\nMichael Cann earned his BA in chemistry in 1969 from Marist College\, and his MA (1972) and PhD (1973) in organic chemistry from Stony Brook University.
