SUMMARY:Public Lecture - Smart Fertilisers: Fertile ground for sustainable agriculture
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 School of Chemistry Public Lecture \nModern farming practices require nitrogen fertilisers\, and their use is projected to increase by 70-100% by 2050. Unfortunately\, approximately 50% of nitrogen fertilisers applied to agricultural systems is lost into the environment. These losses are not only expensive for farmers and consumers but\, more importantly\, the environmental impact is substantial: ammonia in nitrogen fertilisers is a precursor for particulate matter (PM2.5)\, while nitrate leaching causes excessive surface water eutrophication and groundwater pollution. Microbial processes also play a role\, converting nitrogen fertiliser into gases including nitrous oxide\, which has 300 times higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide. Thus\, to lower the greenhouse gas footprint of agriculture\, reduction of nitrogen losses has become an important goal. This seminar will present a selection of strategies to improve nitrogen management in soils to increase agriculture’s sustainability.

SUMMARY:BIG GARDEN DESIGN: AN EVENING WITH PAUL BANGAY
DESCRIPTION:Landscape designer Paul Bangay has an extraordinary ability to envisage scale and create gardens that feel as though they’ve been there forever. These gardens are places to explore. They emerge from the countryside\, with borrowed landscapes and dramatic views as key elements. Within each design\, Paul creates spaces that bring a different experience of the garden. Vast lawns are bordered by wild grass terraces or dramatic herbaceous borders that flower all year round. From grand gardens in France to a forest grown from saplings\, join Paul on this tour de force of projects complete with lakes\, mountains and walled gardens. For each project\, Paul shares the design process\, as well as garden plans and extensive planting lists. \nPaul will be in conversation with journalist\, podcaster and Sorrento Writers Festival founder and director\, Corrie Perkin. This event is also presented in collaboration with our local independent bookshop\, The Book Bird\, who will have Paul’s books available to purchase and have signed on the night. \nWhen: Monday 23rd September\, 6pm-8pm\nWhere: The KO Creative Studio\, 1/14 Lambert Avenue\, Newtown\nCost: Tickets are $30+bf and include beautiful local wine\, non-alcoholic drinks and cheese.
