The Truth About Nutrition and Aging: Why Generic Advice Stops Working
Aging changes how people's bodies process food, build muscle, regulate blood sugar and absorb nutrients. Yet most nutrition advice stays general. This free Zoom class is hosted by the UAF Cooperative Extension Service in Southeast Alaska. It explores the key biological changes that affect health over time and why many people hit a plateau despite “doing everything right.” Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of why personalized nutrition is often necessary to support long-term energy, resilience and well-being.

Wonderous birds: Reducing bird-to-glass collisions one window at a time
Join the next Life Science Seminar on Sept. 4 at 3 p.m. in the Murie Auditorium and via Zoom with guest speaker Amal Ajmi from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for a talk on "Wonderous birds: Reducing bird-to-glass collisions one window at a time." Windows pose a severe, invisible threat to avian populations because birds do not recognize glass as a physical barrier. Instead, they perceive reflected vegetation and sky as open flyways. This presentation addresses the urgent need for solutions, contextualizing this major ecological challenge within the staggering loss of nearly three billion North American birds since 1970 (Rosenberg et al. 2019). Glass collisions are entirely human-caused and represent the second leading artificial source of bird mortality (Loss, 2015). The urgency is compounded by recent data showing that only 40% of birds survive a window strike (Kornreich et al. 2024), disproving the assumption that birds that fly away are unharmed. Fortunately, simple interventions can significantly…

Scaling North America’s highest peak: Inside the Denali climbing forecast
Join a Virtual Alaska Weather Symposium webinar, hosted by GINA and ASF in partnership with ACCAP, on Sept. 9 that will pull back the curtain on the high-stakes world of the National Weather Service Fairbanks Denali climbing forecast. Discover the immense scientific and logistical challenges of predicting extreme weather for a massive, remote peak where traditional data is nearly non-existent, forcing meteorologists to rely on a sparse network of automated weather stations, satellite soundings and real-time ranger dispatches. You will also learn how this lifesaving data is distilled into clear, non-technical updates and transmitted to the mountain via satellite phones, public radio and hand-written whiteboards at isolated high-altitude camps. Join us to explore how a dedicated team of NWS Fairbanks forecasters acts as a critical lifeline, mapping out precious "weather windows" that allow climbers to conquer the peak safely and return home.

Anchorage: Replacing weeds with wildflowers, bird vetch and rampion bellflower
Diverse flowers and wildflowers create better habitat for pollinators which provides benefits local flora and fauna. We will discuss pollinators and wildflowers that are more attractive to diverse insects than bird vetch.

Gino Graziano is a faculty member at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Institute of Agriculture Natural Resources and Extension who does research and outreach on invasive species management, forest health and agricultural pest and weed management. His research team has done some research on bird vetch removal, interactions with pollinators and pesticide impacts on goals to plant wildflowers attractive to pollinators.

Choose Their Fate
One choice can save a life. One choice can end it. Every week, we're playing through The Quarry and you're deciding what happens next. Vote in Discord and Twitch before the session opens, then settle any ties live in the room. Who lives, who dies, whose choices doomed the whole group. It's on you. Multi-week series running through Halloween. Miss a week? Catch up in Discord, vote's still open for what's next.
