Cafe Scientifique Minneapolis

October 20th
7:00 to 9:00 PM
Bryant Lake Bowl

Jonathan Foley, director of the University of Minnesota's Institute on the Environment, will talk about another inconvenient truth: our complex global food and agricultural system.

With your help Foley will take-up the question, "How will we feed and fuel more than nine billion people without destroying our environment in the process?"

Doors for this event open at 6pm. Tickets can be purchased in advance on the Bryant-Lake Bowl's website (see link below).
