In recognition of the quadricentennial of Henry Hudson’s 1609 voyage up the Hudson River, an all day conference was held that examined New York City as a landmark case history in environmental sustainability. Thank you to all who attended, supported, and volunteered. Check out images, presentations, and podcasts from "In The Wake of The Half Moon". The conference traced the arc of the region's profound environmental changes, from its pristine beginnings to its nadir near 1900 to today's surprising (but still incomplete) recovery and into the future and 500th anniversary of the voyage in 2109.
