Thus there will not be a “Northern California Botanists” symposium in 2009. You can find more information about “CNPS 2009 Conservation Conference: Strategies and Solutions” at www.cnps.org/cnps/conservation/conference/2009/.
“The main goal of this conference is to identify and promote science- and policy-based strategies and solutions to improve the conservation of California’s native flora and natural landscapes.”
There is still time to get involved in the planning of this conference, to offer to present a paper or poster, or to be active in any number of ways in making this conference a success. Look for “Northern California Botanists” to have a presence at this important conference.

SER International's World Conference on Ecological Restoration
|
|
Date(s):
|
August 23-28, 2009
|
|
Location:
|
Perth, Western Australia
|
|
Details:
|
SER's world conference is held every other year, with the next event scheduled for August 23-28, 2009, in Perth, Western Australia.
Attendees will experience a southern hemisphere global biodiversity hotspot, world-renowned for its unique flora and fauna, with 90 percent of species endemic to the region. Western Australia is a unique place, situated on one of the oldest continental landmasses on earth, with the earliest evidence of life (3.8BY stromatolite fossils) to extraordinary plant and animal life fostered by being an island continent for the past 65 million years.
Restoration is big business in Western Australia, whether it is restoring degraded farmland, urban bushland or wetlands. And with Western Australia being one of the most productive and diversified mineral and energy regions in the world, there will be opportunities to witness the leading edge approaches being used in post-mining restoration.
