This is a recap of our two most recent program meetings.
On October 16th, Dr. Jean Marie Kauth gave an engaging presentation on environmental health with a focus on chemicals that affect our wellbeing. A professor at Benedictine University, she has authored numerous books including Environmental Legacies of the Copernican Universe.
On November 20, Brittany Rogness of the Illinois Bat Conservation Program provided an excellent review of efforts to conserve bats in Illinois, including field work to monitor the populations of the thirteen species of bats found in Illinois.
She encouraged people to erect bat houses, but cautioned that they should be properly designed, following guidelines from Bat Conservation International.
