SUMMARY:Climate Change and Land Use Change Impacts on Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Biodiversity across the globe and throughout the tree of life is in major flux\, and understanding the nature and causes of these changes is critical for developing effective conservation and management strategies. Pollinators are an especially important group to understand biodiversity change in\, given the ecosystem and agricultural services that they provide\, and bumblebees are a particularly important group of wild native pollinators found across North America and Europe. Over the last few decades\, many species across this group have been declining\, with links being made to climate change and habitat loss as the culprits. Join Peter Soroye\, Conservation Biologist\, to learn about his PhD research\, looking at many species across multiple continents to explore how climate change has affected North America and European bumblebees over the last 120 years\, and how human land use and habitat loss change that relationship. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar.

SUMMARY:Pollinator Week Panel & Happy Hour: Ask Us Anything about Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Pollinator Week by joining in a fun and informative happy hour Q&A with a panel of Xerces Society pollinator conservation experts!  For nearly 50 years\, Xerces staff have worked to protect and conserve pollinators and their habitats. Our amazing staff are national leaders getting science-based guidance for pollinator conservation into the hands of farmers\, ranchers\, gardeners\, and other land managers. During this Q&A\, participants will have the opportunity to directly ask Xerces staff about anything and everything related to pollinator conservation\, native habitat restoration\, pesticide use and impacts\, climate change resilience\, grazing management\, and more. We’ll also be distributing door prizes such as Xerces Society books\, habitat signs\, and more to attendees throughout the hour! Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \n  \nThis event will be emceed by Eric Lee-Mäder (Pollinator Program Co-Director) and the panelists are: Stephanie Frischie (Agronomist\, Native Plant Materials Specialist)\, Kelly Gill (Senior Pollinator Conservation Specialist\, Northeast/Mid-Atlantic Region)\, Sarah Hoyle (Pesticide Program Specialist)\, Jennifer Hopwood (Senior Pollinator Conservation Specialist\, Midwest)\,  Karin Jokela (Farm Bill Pollinator Conservation Planner\, Minnesota)\, Jessa Kay Cruz (Senior Pollinator Conservation Specialist\, California and the Intermountain West)\, Angela Laws (Endangered Species Conservation Biologist and Climate Change Lead)\, Molly Martin (Bee City USA Coordinator)\, and Ray Moranz (Grazing Lands Pollinator Ecologist).
