# Citizen Science And Extinction Culture Feb 8 2017 Shaping San Francisco Public Talk 2

Doing science and making culture are increasingly intertwined as more and more amateur naturalists crowdsource the multi-layered experience of life on this planet. Authors of two new books Mary Ellen Hannibal ( Citizen Scientist: Searching for Heroes and Hope in an Age of Extinction ) and Ursula Heise ( Imagining Extinction: The Cultural Meanings of Endangered Species ) illuminate the tangled, dynamic processes of thinking and doing that help us understand where we are and what we can—or ought to—do about living through this heartbreaking Great Extinction.
