A Letter from the Editor: Five Year Anniversary of Iraq War: Not much response at ESF or SU in Anti-War Protest Students, faculty members and community members gathered in front of Hendrick’s Chapel on the SU campus for a demonstration to mark the 5th Anniversary of the War in Iraq on March 19th. The attendance was disheartening…there couldn’t have been more than 20 people at the event on campus. The Syracuse Peace Council gathered approximately 100 participants in a demonstration downtown. Protestors blocked North Salina Street in a “die in” and dressed up in costumes of key government actors in the war. Several people were arrested for blocking streets or taking photos when told not to by police. While a demonstration of public dissatisfaction of the war couldn’t have been on a worse day in terms of weather, there should have been more participation. Coordinators raised the possibility of a second protest with greater publicity the next time around so keep a look out if you want to participate.

The Knothole Around The Quad “Dr. Bell Discusses Ice Dynamics of the Antarctic Environment” By: Johanna Duffy and Rachel Tucker, Students of FOR 496/797 During the upcoming 2007-2008 International Polar Year, Dr. Bell and more than 5,000 other scientists hope to devote their time to polar studies and polar education throughout the world in order to better understand this world-changing topic. Environmental Career Strategies for Women Dr. Robin E. Bell, Doherty Senior Research Scientist at the LamontDoherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University, presented Antarctic Environment: Sub-glacial Lakes Linked to Ice Dynamics at ESF on Tuesday, March 4, 2008. This presentation was jointly sponsored by Syracuse University’s Department of Earth Sciences, the Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Program at Syracuse University and the ESF Women’s Caucus. Dr. Bell discussed the changes in ice dynamics that are being observed in Greenland and the Antarctic environments. She summarized the causes and effects of these changes and also compared and contrasted the ice dynamics of these two environments. Dr. Bell first focused on what constitutes ice dynamics. Overall, the amount of global sea ice has decreased in the past 5-10 years. This reduction is studied using ice dynamics (i.e., understanding how and why changes occur in the ice sheets). Dr. Bell explained that the melting of floating ice has no impact on sea level, but that the melting of ice on the land surface (ice sheets) can lead to increases in global sea level. The three ice sheets that are the focus of Dr. Bell’s research are the Greenland Ice Sheet, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, and the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. The melting of any one of these ice sheets could result in a drastic rise in sea levels, from a minimum of approximately 19-feet (West Antarctic Ice Sheet) to a maximum of approximately 170feet (East Antarctic Ice Sheet). The melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet has increased by 0.7 Student Life and the Environment percent per year. This ice sheet is characterized by outlet glaciers (fast flowing ice) located around its margin. It was discovered that moulins (glacial lakes) were conveying surface melt water to the base of the ice sheet, lubricating the base of the sheet, and forcing the margin areas of the glacier to break off into the ocean. Dr. Bell received her B.A. in Geology from Middlebury College, and her M.S., M. Phil, and Ph.D. in marine geophysics from Columbia University. Aside from her research duties, Dr. Bell is also the Chair of National Academy of the Sciences Polar Research Board and Vice Chair of the International Planning Group for the International Polar Year. She also directs Columbia University’s National Science Foundationsponsored ADVANCE program, aimed at recruiting and retaining women in the sciences. For more information about the Women in Scientific and Environmental Professions Speaker Series, please visit http://www.esf.edu/ womenscaucus. Dr. Bell began to focus her research on whether similar changes were taking place in the polar ice sheets in Antarctica. Her study determined that the ice dynamics observed at the Greenland Ice Sheet were not apparent in the Antarctic glacial region. The lakes of Antarctica are buried under many layers of ice, hence the name sub-glacial lakes. If the lake water levels drop, then so do the elevations of the glacier. Although her exploration team is making great strides in understanding the dynamics of the Antarctic glacial environment, more research is required to firmly grasp the causes and effects taking place in this region of the world. The ESF and Syracuse City School District Environmental Challange By: Tina Notas Editor-in-chief The 7th and 8th Grade Science Fair took over the campus on the Friday over spring break. The ESF/Syracuse City School District Environmental Challenge hosted city kids who presented their science projects to be judged for the 6th year of the event. After setting up displays of their science projects in Moon Library, Moon Room 19 and Nifkin Lounge, the middle school students filed into Marshall Auditorium where a climate change presentation was made by meteorologist Dave Eichorn of NewsChannel 9. Eichorn presented the local effects of climate change to students. Students later returned to the location of their projects to explain their science experiments and answer questions for the fair judges. Judges asked questions about how the scientific method was followed in a student’s project and determined whether the project showed scientific knowledge. The experiments conducted by students included studies on yeast, crystals, sandpaper, and even ice cream! After the judging, ribbons were given out for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place projects by school. ESF Outreach organized this event along with the city school district. Participants of this year’s Science Fair!!

We are committed to providing courteous quality service to all library customers. To help us learn how well we are fulfilling this mission we have a designed a brief survey that we hope everyone at ESF (students, faculty and staff) will complete. This survey will be available to all via the web during the weeks of March 17 and March 24. An email invitation with a link to this survey was sent to everyone on March 17 and a reminder will be sent a week later. It should take about 5 minutes to complete the survey and while participation is completely voluntary, the library staff hopes that many will take this opportunity to let us know how well we are doing. Look at it as a library evaluation, assessment or a report card regarding library services and resources. You do not have to answer all the questions and you may stop at any time if you wish. You do not need to give us your name or any contact information; however, if you do choose to do this, you will be eligible to win a $50 gift certificate at the ESF Small Stores. Also, we may be able to respond to you directly about any specific comments you make or any questions you raise. A library that doesn’t assess its resources and services and change as necessary to meet the needs of its customers is not doing its job. The Moon staff has developed a culture of continuous improvement that works to respond appropriately to the ESF community and its information needs. We look to this survey to help us with this effort. Thank you for helping us, help you. We will study the results of this survey and share them with the campus community in a variety of ways. Look for another article in the Knothole next month. Look for a display in the Moon Library. And where feasible you may see some changes in our services and resources based upon what you tell us in this survey. Student Life and the Environment Hearing the Tree Fall A new Eve for a failing Eden Women’s legacy in the modern day environmental movement By: Whitney Sapienza Art Editor Since the first Earth Day celebration nearly thirty eight years ago years ago, women have made valiant and inspiring contributions to both society and science in the study and stewardship of our natural world. With increasing numbers of women in environmental careers, female legislators working toward positive environmental protection efforts, and an even a nearly equal female to male ratio of new Stumpies here at ESF, new generations of women are ready and waiting to show solidarity for mother nature. What better a place to illustrate women and the modern environmental movement than right here at SUNY ESF. Forget the days where environmental science and study were male dominated academic focuses, statistics from collegeboard. com state that upwards of 43% of first year ESF students are in fact women. Proportionally, this number has increased every year of ESF tradition and it is expected that in the near future incoming students may be part of an equal gender ratio. In addition to the student body, I can speak from personal experience as to the presence of female faculty around the ESF campus. The majority of my professors from both the first semester and this current semester were in fact women. The national and global environmental community has almost infinite examples of the work done by women which has shaped and greatly affected the history and continued legacy of the environmental movement. Established in December of 1970, nearly a fourth of the The Knothole directors of the Environmental Protection Agency have in fact been women. It was a woman, Helena Benitez, whom was inaugurated as the president of the Governing Council for Environmental Affairs of the United Nations in 1975. In congress, Senator Barbara Boxer representing California has recently revitalized the Safe Drinking Water Act. Recently retired senator Pat Schroeder of Colorado championed a caused to transform a military base into a wildlife refuge. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has served on the New York State Environment and Public Works committee since the start of her term in the senate. The list of political and private organizations which have been transformed in large part due to the efforts of dogged women whom care greatly for the environment is simply unending. In a less politicized context, female authors, sociologists, and cultural icons, have placed environmental awareness in the minds of the masses. Rachael Carson’s 1962 book Silent Spring pleaded with people around the world to imagine an existence without the spirit of nature. Single handedly, her work helped to put into effect the ban of the pesticide DDT within the United States in 1972. Other iconic American women have led the fight for the rights of our environment. Margret Mead, revolutionary cultural anthropologist spoke outwardly about the grave need for environmental stewardship providing us such lasting words as, “One of the most dangerous things that can happen to a child is to kill or torture an animal and get away with it.” Truly the protection of our earth is not carried only by women in the scientific community, but also in the realms of literature, philosophy, sociology, and so many others. Certainly, we as an environmental community both here around the ESF quad and throughout our nation and globe have experienced and are headed for a new Eden which is ardently protected by a new Eve. Women have engaged and achieved in every facet of environmental science, stewardship, and study. The ambition and determination of generations of female environmentalists is helping to salvage our natural world for our time, and the time to come. The biblical creation story speaks of Eve picking the forbidden fruit from a sacred tree. It would seem that a new Eve is working to protect and venerate our natural resources, outstretching an arm and planting a new seed of environmental awareness under our very feet and within our very minds. Val Plumwood: Feminist, Environmentalist, and an Inspiration to All By: Debbie Moschak Managing Editor www.anu.edu.au Val Plumwood, 68, an Australian ecofeminist and activist, was found dead in her home on March 1, 2008. Although initial reports stated that she died of a snake bite, it was now confirmed that she died of natural causes. Plumwood was attacked by a crocodile in Australia’s outback nearly 20 years ago, yet miraculously survived after being dragged underwater in a death roll by the crocodile. Plumwood played an important role in the environmental movement, particularly in regards to biodiversity and deforestation. She was greatly involved in the development of ecological humanities, which aims to bridge the divide between sciences and the humanities, and between Western, Eastern, and Indigenous ways of knowing nature. Some of her major books include Feminism and the Mastery of Nature and Environmental Culture: the Ecological Crisis of Reason. She was an advocate of making people realize what their place is in nature, and she lived her life according to these standards. When people Student Life and the Environment wanted to hunt down the crocodile that attacked her, she insisted that they leave it be, stating that she was the one intruding on the animal’s space. In a speech given at the 2006 Melbourne Writers’ Festival, Plumwood left the crowd with inspiring words to live by, “Help us re-imagine the world in richer terms that will allow us to see ourselves as in dialogue with and limited by other species’ needs, and other kinds of minds.” Aside from being an environmental activist, Plumwood was also the Australian Research Council Fellow at the Australian National University, and had also held positions at North Carolina State University, the University of Montana, and the University of Sidney. Plumwood gave motivation and inspiration to women and environmentalists around the world. Although she is now gone, her spirit and encouraging ideas will live on forever. A Month of Feminism at Syracuse Nina Katchadourian, who has exhibited her work at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), presented a film of the origin of her unique family name and then talked about her works and the influence of her Finnish grandmother on a recent artwork. For more information or to join the Committee on Women and Art, check out matrilineage.org. By: Tina Notas Editor in Chief “Careful…if you eat this banana, you’ll become a feminist,” said the Guerrilla Girls as they passed out bananas the night of their talk. The feminist masked avengers, with names of dead female authors to maintain their anonymity along with gorilla masks presented their ideas on the history of “mostly male art” and talked about their activities to raise awareness for the lack of female artists in art museums. “We believe feminism is a fundamental way of looking at the world and recognizing that half of us are female and all of us should be equal.” Say the Guerrilla Girls on their website. The Committee on Women and Art, a campus student group presented the 17th Matrilineage Symposium that brought the Guerrilla Girls along with four other contemporary, radical female artists to Syracuse for the month of March. Tina Takemoto presented her performance and installation art. Takemoto is a visual studies professor at the California College of the Arts who also writes about queer theory, gender, and Asian American issues.
