SUMMARY:NATURALIST BOOK CLUB 
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an enlightening discussion of Rhythms of Life – The Biological Clocks that Control the Daily Lives of Every Living Thing by Russell G. Foster and Leon Kreitzman. \nFrom the publisher’s website:\n“An eye-opening discussion of how biological clocks affect the lives of all living organisms. In this fascinating book\, Russell Foster and Leon Kreitzman explain the significance of the biological clock\, showing how it has played an essential role in evolution and why it continues to play a vitally important role in all living organisms. The authors tell us that biological clocks are embedded in our genes and reset at sunrise and sunset each day to link astronomical time with an organism’s internal time. They discuss how scientists are working out the clockwork mechanisms and what governs them\, and they describe how organisms measure different intervals of time\, how they are adapted to various cycles\, and how light coordinates the time within to the external world. They review problems that can be caused by malfunctioning biological clocks—including jet lag\, seasonal affective disorder\, and depression. And they warn that although new drugs are being promoted to allow us to stay awake for longer periods\, a 24/7 lifestyle can have a harmful impact on our health\, both as individuals and as a society.” \nDate: Sunday\, November 24\nTime: 7 p.m. – 8 p.m.\nLocation: online meeting; details emailed with registration confirmation\nCost: free to FOCC members; $5 donation appreciated for non-members\nAges: 12 and up \n  \nRESERVE NOW \n

SUMMARY:Junior Ranger King Tide Hike
DESCRIPTION:Make way\, the king is coming to China Camp! Not King Charles\, but a king tide! California’s coastal and bay waters will rise to extraordinary levels this winter\, causing certain low-lying coastal and bay regions to flood. This phenomenon\, deemed a king tide\, temporarily transforms China Camp’s salt marsh into a watery mirror of the sky with the edges buzzing with wildlife. Small marsh residents like lizards\, insects\, and salt marsh harvest mice will seek higher ground to escape the rising tides\, while birds of prey wait along the shoreline to snack on these fleeing creatures.  \nOn this short\, three-fourths mile round-trip excursion\, Junior Rangers will have the opportunity to view the rising tides\, watch the wildlife\, and learn about the special role that the sun and the moon play in these fascinating annual occurrences. \nSpace is limited; registration is required. Cancellations notified via email. \nDate: Saturday\, January 11\nTime: 10 a.m. – noon\nLocation: Turtle Back trailhead\nCost: free to FOCC members; $5 donation appreciated for non-members\nAges: 7 to 9 years old; must be accompanied by a parent or responsible adult\nADA accessible \nRESERVE NOW

SUMMARY:Naturalist Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Earth Transformed by Peter Frankopan \nJoin a lively discussion of The Earth Transformed by Peter Frankopan\, listed as a 2023 best book of the year by The New Yorker. Frankopan is a professor of global history at Oxford University.  \nFrom the publisher’s website:   \n\n“Global warming is one of the greatest dangers mankind faces today. Even as temperatures increase\, sea levels rise\, and natural disasters escalate\, our current environmental crisis feels difficult to predict and understand. But climate change and its effects on us are not new. In a bold narrative that spans centuries and continents\, Peter Frankopan argues that nature has always played a fundamental role in the writing of history… Again and again\, Frankopan shows that when past empires have failed to act sustainably\, they have been met with catastrophe. Blending brilliant historical writing and cutting-edge scientific research\, The Earth Transformed will radically reframe the way we look at the world and our future.” \n  \n  \nDate:  Sunday\, January 26 \nTime: 7 p.m. – 8 p.m.   \nLocation: online meeting; details emailed with registration confirmation \nCost: free for FOCC members; $5 donation appreciated for non-members \nAge: 12 and up \n  \nRESERVE NOW
