From prolonged drought to flash floods, what are the particularities and paradoxes surrounding water in the American Southwest? Who has rights to water? How is water shared among people, plants, and other animals? How do we reconcile diverse cultural and spiritual views of water? Join the Natural History Institute for an in-person screening of the Parched documentary with comments by curator Julie Comnick and the producer Jane Marks. The Parched documentary tells the story of the creation of the art exhibit- Parched: The Art of Water in the Southwest - which explores the complexities of water in the context of climate change and increasing demands on water. Nine regional artists participated in a comprehensive education program led by scientists, managers, and environmental advocates and spent a year creating original art pieces that are unified into one exhibit. Parched reflects the conflicting demands on water for agriculture, recreation, households, and nature.

The COVID-19 shutdown has stretched out time, money and patience as everyone struggles to balance the needs of careers, children and more. Women and minorities are the hardest hit: four times as many

The COVID-19 shutdown has stretched out time, money and patience as everyone struggles to balance the needs of careers, children and more. Women and minorities are the hardest hit: four times as many women dropped out of the workforce as men in September 2020, with Latinas and Black women seeing the highest levels of unemployment. The Biden administration’s COVID recovery plans promise to prioritize climate and equity alongside economic growth — can those values carry over to a post-pandemic workforce that doesn’t leave anyone behind? How will climate resilience be built into America's economic recovery? Join us for a conversation on building back an inclusive and green economy, with Julian Brave NoiseCat, vice president of policy and strategy at Data for Progress; Julie Pullen, director of product at Jupiter Intelligence; and Alicia Seiger, managing director of the Sustainable Finance Initiative at Stanford University’s Precourt Institute for Energy.

The result is increasing destruction of the natural world and growing, sometimes lethal, tension between rich and poor, global north and south. Trying to fix problems piecemeal is not the solution. We need a comprehensive new vision of an economy that can serve people and all of lifes commonwealth.
