🍺 This new episode of ”Cheers to Science” invites you to find out what happens when toads, flowers, and your beer tell the same story. 🌿

Romania’s high-biodiversity farming landscapes are living stories of balance — where traditional practices sustain rich ecosystems, “working trees,” and rare species like toads and bears. Yet, modernization and community change are threatening these fragile connections.

Join us for an engaging talk exploring how science and traditional knowledge can help preserve these unique social–ecological systems and keep them resilient for the future.

📅 31 October, starting 7 PM
📍 Londohome, Strada General David Praporgescu 31
This event is held in English.

🎙 Guest speaker: Tibor Hartel, Associate Professor at Babeș-Bolyai University, Faculty of Environmental Science and Engineering. His research focuses on social–ecological systems, using wood-pastures, large carnivores, and urban landscapes as models. He is a Humboldt Research Fellow, Peregrinus Prize laureate, and elected member of Academia Europaea.

✨ Come share a drink, a thought, and a story about science!
🎟 Free entry. No prior scientific knowledge required.
🥂 Food and drinks are self-paid and individually ordered at the bar.
