Project Abstract/ Summary
Randy Olson is an award-winning filmmaker who has a provocative sense of humor and a Ph.D. in coral-reef ecology. Through film, public lecture, and discussion, he will share his humorous, serious, and passionate insights on the challenges in today's world of information overload of communicating accurate scientific information to people who are not scientists. His efforts in this arena include co-founding the "Shifting Baselines Ocean Media Project," a partnership between marine scientists and Hollywood to highlight the crisis threatening the oceans.
