The Poetry of Nature: Finding Nature Through the Spoken and Written Word
The Conversation
Talking about the ways natural science and poetry both involve attentive observation and careful study of the natural world. Through the simplicity of poetry our guest can reveal the complexity of the universe. We will discover how poets can help make science more accessible to wider audiences, expand our awareness of and appreciation for the natural world, and hopefully encourage us to support sustainability initiatives. It’s all about taking the time to look and appreciate the wonders that surround us.
Guests
Ronald H. Fenn, Poet, Nature Observer, and Educator
