Date: 1/9/25 3:43 am From: Diana F. <diana.fru...> Subject: [Arlington Birds] Revolutionary Harbor: Honeybees and the Impacts of Colonialism on Insects - - Thursday, January 25
This program is presented by the National Park Service and Boston Harbor
Now as a part of our three-part Revolutionary Harbor lecture series. This
lecture is the first of the series.
Nature conservation and climate change are two of the most pressing
conversations happening around the Boston Harbor Islands and Massachusetts
at large. Insects are at the foundation of our natural ecosystems, and yet
they rarely take center stage during these conversations.
Colonialism disrupts ecosystems and shapes our relationship to the natural
world. In this lecture, we will explore this topic through the lens of
honeybees, learning about insect ecosystem services and our native
pollinators along the way.
