DESCRIPTION:This event is being hosted by the Trottier Institute for Scienc
 e and Public Policy (TISPP)\, within the Faculty of Science at ɬÀï·¬ Univ
 ersity. This is free\, open to the public\, no registration required. Full
  program below. For questions\, tim.moore [at] mcgill.ca (email Prof. Tim 
 Moore\, Director of TISPP). \n	\n\nJoin us to learn about the effects of hu
 man activities on the nitrogen cycle\, nitrogen footprints and their manag
 ement.\n\n\n	Humans have fundamentally altered the global nitrogen cycle - 
 even more profoundly than the carbon cycle. The creation of ‘reactive nitr
 ogen’ has fueled human progress and helped to vastly increase food product
 ion\, but has unintended consequences for air and water pollution that hav
 e immense costs to society. Read Galloway and Leach (2016) 'Sustainability
 : Your feet’s too big' (Nature Geoscience 9: 97-8) and listen to Fats Wall
 er's song 'Your feet's too big'. There is now a movement to better identif
 y the sources and effects of ‘reactive nitrogen’\, to create a ‘nitrogen f
 ootprint’ at individual\, institutional and national levels and examine wa
 ys to reduce the magnitude of this footprint. This Symposium examines the 
 science\, causes and effects of accelerated nitrogen use\, the development
  of nitrogen footprints and ways in which footprints can be reduced\, eith
 er personally or institutionally. It brings together researchers from the 
 USA and Canada\, presents the N footprint for ɬÀï·¬ and includes a panel 
 discussion on what can be done.\n\nSchedule:\n\n\n	14:30 Welcome and outlin
