RGS Lecture – Coral Reefs: on the Edge

Tonight (Wed 11 March) there is a Royal Geographical Society Hong Kong  lecture by Julia Whitty. The lecture is Coral Reefs: On the Edge, which will cover what they describe as the most endangered of the biospheres. To quote from their website:

“Julia Whitty shows why this is happening, how it can be reversed, who’s working on it and what it means to us to keep our planet vibrantly alive. Ms Whitty has spent the past 25 years working in the planet’s great wildernesses, from coral reefs and cloud forests, to the African veldt and Indian jungles. Her stories from the front lines are urgent, poignant and funny, revealing the wonders of science and the secret lives of animals in the wild. Her more than 70 nature documentaries have aired on PBS, The Discovery Channel, National Geographic, among many other broadcasters worldwide.”

The lecture will be at 2/F Olympic House, So Kong Po, Causeway Bay, with a drinks reception at 6:30pm and the lecture at 7:30pm.
