EOC 179: Ecology in the City

Crima Pogge is a professor of Biology and Ecology at City College of San Francisco. In this episode, Kristin Tieche lets you be a student again, as she takes you along on her class with Crima: Ecology of the Mendocino Coast. You’ll visit a harbor seal rookery, a dune ecosystem, and a redwood forest. In 2016, San Francisco voters made City College of San Francisco free for residents, providing life-long learners an opportunity to continue their education with zero financial risk. Crima describes the civic value of the ecology classes she teaches for San Franciscans, and their accessibility to all types of learners.   Also interviewed is Kristin’s classmate Hilda Ngan, who teaches us about red abalone.   Learn more about Crima Pogge here: https://sites.google.com/a/mail.ccsf.edu/aboutcrima/   Learn more about City College of San Francisco here: https://www.ccsf.edu/   Closing music: Orange+Blue by Chris Collins.   Support Eyes on Conservation by become a Patron:   https://www.patreon.com/WildLensCollective Join private conversations with top authors and access exclusive bonus content!
