Mushrooms, with their dazzling array of colors and forms, are the temporary fruiting bodies of a larger fungal network. Join local expert Chris May to explore Arizona's diverse fungal world, learning about edible species, those to avoid, and how to appreciate the fungi all around us.

A former Arizona Mushroom Society president, Chris May is a NAMA-designated mushroom identifier and a member of its Toxicology Committee. Passionate about fungi since 2012, he consults on suspected mushroom poisonings and has safely identified 88 different species in Arizona.

Pronghorn, often called "speed goats" or "antelope," are North America's fastest land animals, reaching over 55mph. This unique species, neither goat nor antelope, relies on speed and eyesight to survive on the plains. Despite their iconic status, pronghorn populations are declining in many areas, including the Verde Valley.

Join Forest Service biologists Janie Agyagos and Francisco Anaya for a Speaker Series talk. Discover pronghorn biology, from life history to threats like rangeland fences. Learn about current management tools, including tracking movement and ensuring fences are wildlife-friendly. Janie has 30 years of experience as a wildlife biologist with the US Forest Service, while Francisco manages wildlife for Prescott National Forest.

Professor Paco Calvo and author Natalie Lawrence present "Planta Sapiens: The New Science of Plant Intelligence." This book offers an astonishing window into plant intelligence, revealing cutting-edge science. Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities to communicate, manipulate, and move, with new evidence even suggesting sentience.

Paco Calvo is a Professor of Philosophy of Science specializing in plant neurobiology. Natalie Lawrence, an author and illustrator, explores our relationship with the natural world through a scientific lens. Get the book here: Planta Sapiens. Moderated by Rachael Kline. #talksatgoogle #nature

Mexican gray wolves, also known as lobos, are a highly endangered subspecies. The Center for Biological Diversity, a 501c3 nonprofit, spearheaded their reintroduction to Arizona’s Apache National Forest in 1998. Since then, we have worked tirelessly to protect these unique wolves from persecution and boost their declining genetic diversity.

Today, 241 lobos roam wild in Arizona and New Mexico, with 380 in captive-breeding programs. Despite this progress, they remain among North America’s most endangered mammals. We are committed to their full recovery, believing that human welfare is deeply linked to the vast diversity of wild animals and plants.

Our livers use enzymes to break down complex molecules, inspiring Sudoc, a non-toxic industrial cleaning solution. While traditional cleaning often relies on harsh chemicals, creating toxic conditions, Sudoc offers a sustainable alternative.

Sudoc employs biomimicry, mimicking liver enzymes to create catalysts. Paired with oxidants like hydrogen peroxide, these catalysts accelerate the breakdown of pathogens, drugs, pesticides, and industrial contaminants in land and water, achieving zero elemental toxicity.

The Biomimicry Institute recognized Sudoc in its 2022 Ray of Hope Prize Program. For more, visit Sudoc, Biomimicry Institute, AskNature, Root House Studio, and Ray C. Anderson Foundation.

Mantis shrimp are remarkable ocean predators. Some species deliver punches as fast as a.22 caliber bullet, using this incredible force to crack open the shells of clams and crabs.

Join Pathways to Planetary Health for a discussion with Rebecca Henderson (Harvard University) and Jonathan F.P. Rose. They will explore modern capitalism's failings and how purpose-driven businesses can foster sustainable, ethical economies with motivated personnel. Henderson highlights capitalism's success but also its self-destructive risk, asserting that purpose is crucial.

Cutting-edge research shows that firms prioritizing social value over pure profit are significantly more productive and creative, driving essential social and political change. This interactive online event is part of the Garrison Institute’s Forum on Pathways to Planetary Health (PPH), which examines the moral and behavioral dimensions of regenerative solutions.

Millions of tons of construction waste annually pollute our environment and contribute to climate change. Mycoremediation, a nature-inspired solution, uses fungi to transform harmful construction

Millions of tons of construction waste annually pollute our environment and contribute to climate change. Mycoremediation, a nature-inspired solution, uses fungi to transform harmful construction and demolition waste into usable materials, mimicking natural decomposition.

Mycocycle, a 2022 Biomimicry Institute Ray of Hope Prize finalist, cultivates fungi to detoxify construction debris and asphalt. Their innovative process converts toxic trash into harmless, reusable materials, moving us closer to building waste-free, sustainable cities.
