SUMMARY:Village Nature Series: Embracing the Dark- Light Pollution\, Health and the Environment
DESCRIPTION:For more than a century\, artificial lighting has transformed our nights—brightening our homes\, streets\, and cities. But only recently have scientists begun to fully understand the hidden costs of this constant illumination. Light pollution is now recognized as a significant factor affecting wildlife behavior\, human health\, and the balance of our environment. In this talk\, we’ll explore why natural darkness is essential—not just for ecosystems\, but for our own physical\, mental\, and emotional well-being. We’ll look at how excessive nighttime lighting disrupts sleep cycles\, impacts animals\, and alters natural rhythms that have existed for millennia. We’ll also focus on practical solutions. You’ll learn simple\, effective ways to reduce light pollution at home and in your neighborhood—strategies that can improve your health\, lower energy costs\, and help restore the night sky for everyone. \nPresenter Bio: Stephan Martin is an astronomer\, educator\, and author who helps people reconnect with the natural world through the night sky. He has taught astronomy\, physics\, and sustainability at colleges\, universities\, and learning centers for over thirty-five years\, and has worked as an instrument specialist for the Hubble Space Telescope and as Observatory Supervisor at Williams College\, where he joined global eclipse expeditions studying the solar corona. Through talks and stargazing experiences\, he invites audiences to rediscover the beauty and importance of dark skies.

SUMMARY:Village Nature Series: The History and Biology of Coyotes in North Carolina
DESCRIPTION:Description: Join wildlife biologist Justin McVey to explore the fascinating history and biology of coyotes in North Carolina. The presentation will trace coyotes’ natural migration and human-assisted expansion throughout North Carolina\, highlight coyotes’ adaptability in diverse habitats\, and debunk common myths regarding their diet and feeding behaviors.  We will discuss effective non-lethal management techniques for reducing human-coyote conflicts\, emphasizing that eradication is not a feasible or necessary solution\, and discuss why public education is essential to  manage fear and conflicts. \nPresenter Bio: Justin McVey is the mountain regional district wildlife biologist for the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. Justin has a Bachelor of Science degree in zoology from North Carolina State University and also obtained his Master of Science in wildlife and conservation biology there studying the food habits of coyotes and red wolves in Eastern North Carolina. Justin has been employed by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission since 2005\, holding the positions of captive cervid biologist\, wildlife technician\, permits biologist\, and the recent position of district wildlife biologist. \nPhoto Credit: N.C.
