The Galapagos Islands: Then and Now
Native Rice Lake’er Jim Bradley will share high points of his recent trek to the Galapagos Islands with fellow members of Blue Hills UU this coming Sunday, September 13th.
The public is invited to experience the Galapagos vicariously through the eyes and experiences of naturalist Charles Darwin and biologist, Dr. James Bradley, retired faculty member of Auburn University, Alabama. Jim will share what geologists say about how and when the islands were formed, Darwin’s impressions while visiting them in 1835, as well as his own impressions 190 years later.
How do modern day Ecuadorians work to preserve this natural wonderland? Consider this while contemplating the role the archipelago played in urging modern humanity to respect the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

Dr. James Bradley
