JLF: Fluid Mosaic: the City, the West, and Water: Canyon Theater
John F. Ross, and Patty Limerick in conversation with Marcus Moench
A dynamic session that celebrates the grandeur of the American West and examines the mosaic of its ecological systems. Acclaimed journalist John F. Ross is the author of The Promise of the Grand Canyon, an account of John Wesley Powell’s expedition down the Colorado river, and his campaign for environmental sustainability in the region. Historian Patty Limerick is the chair of the board of the Center of the American West at the University of Colorado, and author of A Ditch in Time, which reveals the complex relationship between urban and rural areas, and the many factors that control the west’s water. Marcus Moench founded The Institute for Social and Environmental Transition-International and works with communities, government, and international organizations in Asia and the western United States. Together, they share concerns and insights about a sustainable future.
