"The View from Deep Time" An illustrated talk from Professor Colin Jago of GeoMôn

About

Long before the mountains and coastlines we know today existed, North Wales was a land of astonishing transformations. Over 800 million years, this landscape has been through changes of climate that include hot arid conditions, coral reefs in a shallow tropical sea, and thick glaciers and ice sheets.

Join us at Bodysgallen Hall for an illustrated talk with Professor Colin Jago of GeoMôn UNESCO Global Geopark, who will show how the rocks around us provide abundant evidence of major swings in climate over long periods of deep geological time. The lecture will be followed by a delicious two-course luncheon with a glass of wine and Bodysgallen fudge and coffee to finish.

You'll leave with a new perspective on North Wales, marveling at how its rugged beauty was shaped by unimaginable forces over hundreds of millions of years. The next time you wander its hills or coastline, you may pause and imagine the deserts, glaciers, and coral seas that once existed where you now stand.
