SUMMARY:Forest Pub: Stories of the PNW Told by Tree Rings
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets here\nWhat can the rings of trees tell us? Cutting-edge research is revealing that tree rings hold more information than simply a tree’s age. Each ring can teach us something about the past climate\, local cultures\, ecosystems\, and even help reconstruct the history of wildfire. Develop a shared understanding of the ecological and social history of forest ecosystems in the Pacific Northwest with Dr. Andrew Merschel\, Co-director of the Tree Ring Lab at Oregon State University. \nForest Pubs are presented by World Forestry Center and McMenamins.

SUMMARY:Forest Pub: Walking Trees
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets here!\nOur forests are walking\, but should they be running? \nFossil evidence shows that trees naturally migrate\, but with the current pace of climate change\, they are struggling to keep up. As a result\, scientists are exploring what might happen if we step in to assist them. \nOPB’s All Science No Fiction host Jes Burns will moderate a thought-provoking panel discussion with leading experts about the potential impacts of climate change on forest migration within the Pacific Northwest\, the groundbreaking solutions being considered to help forests adapt\, and the ethical implications of human intervention in natural processes. \nThe program begins at 7 pm; doors open at 6 pm. \nSpeakers will share shallow and deep time perspectives: \n\nGlen Howe\, Director of the Pacific Northwest Tree Improvement Research Cooperative\, forest geneticist and Associate Professor at Oregon State University College of Forestry\, will discuss his research on local and contemporary assisted forest migration plans.\nPaige Wilson Deibel\, Ph.D\, a paleobotanist at the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture at the University of Washington\, will share about how she studies fossils to understand the impact of mass extinction of plant species\, and the decimation of forests millions of years ago due to climate change and various disturbances.\n\nJoin us for an in-depth exploration of one of the most pressing issues facing our environment today – can we help our forests move fast enough to survive the challenges ahead? And should we? \nForest Pubs are presented by World Forestry Center and McMenamins.

SUMMARY:Forest Pub: Building the New PDX Airport with Local Mass Timber
DESCRIPTION:PURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE\nJoin our friends from the Port of Portland and project partners to hear stories behind the design\, construction\, and sourcing of the new main terminal at Portland International Airport. Utilizing Mass Timber and locally sourced timber\, PDX has gained international recognition for its innovation and first-of-its-kind approach to a large-scale civic project. Through their community-centered approach to the $2B project\, the Port of Portland has redefined how the public experiences airports...and their connection to the wood that built it \nSpend an evening learning about how combining innovative Mass Timber and a commitment to locally sourced lumber can create something that has soared to new heights. Grab a drink\, sit back\, relax\, and enjoy the program. 🌲✈️ \nForest Pubs are presented by World Forestry Center and McMenamins.
