Description

Tasmanian Eco Film Festival 2016
Free Museum Talk

Presenter: Dr. Richard Kirby
Meeting point: Central Gallery

Antoni van Leeuwenhoek first noticed microscopic life in a drop of water about 350 years ago and Darwin marvelled at it during his Beagle cruise. But what do you really know about plankton and by how much your lives are influenced by these remarkable creatures? In this talk, Dr Richard Kirby, the Plankton Pundit, will reveal how different the world and your lives would be without the Plankton.
