A Cape Cod native, Gil has dedicated his career to teaching coastal ecology, botany, and environmental technology at Sandwich High School, Cape Cod Community College, and Massachusetts Maritime Academy. He is a founder of the Barnstable Land Trust and a past president of the Association to Preserve Cape Cod, playing a key role in protecting and promoting awareness of our region’s fragile ecosystems.
In his talk, “The Ecology of a Cape Cod Salt Marsh,” Gil will guide us through the essential role these unique habitats play in coastal protection, wildlife support, and environmental health. His PowerPoint presentation will offer a compelling look at the science, conservation efforts, and wonders of these ever-changing landscapes.
