PRESENTER: TOM CROCE

PRESENTATION: THE GREAT PLAINS: A VANISHING ECO-SYSTEM
The Great Plains is the world’s most endangered and least protected ecosystem. Once covering approximately 1/3 of North America, over 90% of the original prairies and grasslands have been lost to agriculture. The change from a balanced, diverse ecosystem to one made up of monocultures has had a significant role in global climate change.

Travel with Tom through his photographs and storytelling to hear about the importance of this great region.

Conserving the remaining prairies and grassland while restoring others can store massive amounts of carbon, help mitigate the worst effects of climate change, and help restore the legacy of the American West.
