SUMMARY:Voices Rising: Save our Sounds
DESCRIPTION:Join NCWF Swannanoa Valley WILD! at Highland Farms in Black Mountain for a conversation about one of North Carolina’s most treasured natural resources: our estuarine sounds. Estuaries\, sometimes described as “rainforests of the sea”\, are crucial because they filter pollutants\, provide critical nurseries for fish and shellfish\, as well as economic benefits through recreation\, tourism\, and jobs\, all while supporting immense biodiversity.  Our shallow sounds are in deep trouble for several reasons\, not the least of which is our fisheries management. It’s not too late to recognize and to cherish North Carolina’s natural treasures for the gift they are and undertake-with dogged determination-the effort to restore their abundance\, for humans and the environment. Restoration is not a pipe dream; it is just waiting for us to get on board. \nOur speaker\, Ann Berry Somers\, is a passionate conservationist and a Senior Lecturer Emerita at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Somers serves on the Board of Directors for the N.C. Wildlife Federation. \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but REGISTRATION REQUIRED. \nYou will receive the full event details and updates upon successfully submitting your registration to attend HERE.
