Behind “Uninvited: the Spread of Invasive Species”

January 11, 2022

Learn more about the introduction, spread, and management of invasive species during this virtual webinar. Department of Environmental Conservation Invasive Species Forester Rob Cole and filmmaker Steve Powers will discuss Westfield Production Company’s recent documentary, Uninvited, that introduces the concept of invasive species. Their presentation will highlight some of the species threatening New York’s environment and economy, while also showing some innovative ways that New York State is combating these threats. This webinar will feature information about the documentary’s production and highlight the collaborative work of DEC and its partners. The introduction, spread, and management of invasive species are heavily influenced by the actions of citizens who live, work, and recreate on public and private lands and waterways of New York. Join us to learn more about what you can do to prevent, manage and spread awareness about the spread of harmful invasives.
