Happy Equinox PDX-OSGeo,
Join us this coming Wednesday, March 25th for the first meeting of Spring. Our featured speaker this month is long-time contributor Ryan Hodges, who will be sharing how sometimes, to deal with the big things, you have to start with the little things.
“Should I open a window?” This talk will cover how this question led one person to confront and process issues like digital isolation, international tariffs, and climate change. Ryan will share about how he has chosen to collect and publish environmental data to open data sets using open source hardware and software, why these metrics are so important for measuring community health, and why citizen science may be our best hope to support data-driven decisions and rebuild trust in polarized times.
As is (apparently) tradition we'll be meeting in the room across from Hotlips Pizza @ the Natural Capital Center: 721 NW 9th Ave, Portland OR
from 6:30-8pm.
See you there!
