One secret to buildings that won't collapse during earthquake shaking is shear strength, as this simple model can demonstrate.

Are you a passionate and enthusiastic geoscience volunteer and would like to increase your involvement in a fun and rewarding initiative? The ESfS team has started planning for a successful event in 2026 and we are looking for committee volunteers to deliver the program. Next yearโ€™s Earth Science for Society (ESfS) Exhibition will take place March 15-17, 2026, in Calgary. Each committee has different volunteer needs over the March exhibition time and throughout the year. The general expectation is that a volunteer will provide about 1 hour per week, attend the March exhibition and stay until at least April 2026 for the post-event review. There are opportunities to take on Vice-Chair roles, or as general committee members. We meet via Zoom on the 4th Tuesday of every month 12 noon โ€“ 1 pm MT. The greatest need is with Marketing. There are also positions open on the committees for: Volunteers, Venue & Logistics, Exhibits, Budget & Finance, ESfS in Motion, and Program Delivery.

ESfS in Motion had the pleasure of chatting with over 600 visitors to the Spruce Meadows Rock N Gem Show Aug 14-17 about Earth sciences. Visitors explored the world of trilobite fossils, sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks, and seismic waves. #ESfS2026 #EarthScience #Geology #Geophysics
