SUMMARY:Talk: 'Plankton\, Climate and Gaia'
DESCRIPTION:Friday 17 April 2026: ’Plankton\, Climate and Gaia’ \nThe 6th talk in SSB’s Nature/Wildlife series at 7.30pm in the main hall at Old School Community Centre. \nDr Frances Hopkins from the Plymouth Marine Laboratory will talk about how marine life helps to regulate our planet. \nEarth’s climate is shaped not just by winds and oceans\, but by life itself. Dr Hopkins will introduce the remarkable world of microscopic marine plankton – the tiny organisms that produce half of the oxygen we breath\, absorb vast amounts of carbon dioxide\, and even help clouds to form. \nDrawing on Gaia theory\, which explores how life and the environment interact to keep earth habitable\, she will show how the earths ‘invisible forest’ plays a central role in regulating our climate. She will explain how her research uncovers the chemical conversations between the sea and the sky and how these delicate feedbacks are being affected by climate change. \nA fascinating\, hopeful journey into the hidden systems that keep our planet in balance. \nAll welcome; Refreshments available; \nDonations help us do more!
