This Mother’s Day, E.O. Wilson will deliver a plea for a new human ethic based on a wiser, more careful stewardship of our vanishing natural world while sharing his optimism that we still have an opportunity to save the living things and wild places that sustain us.

The lecture-style event will be hosted by Donald Kennedy, President Emeritus of Stanford University and editor-in-chief of Science. The event will be emceed by KQED Forum Host Michael Krasny.
