Heads up, Humboldt:
While the county's masking mandate has been lifted, Public Health is still strongly recommending masking indoors in public, social distancing and "avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces."
COVID-19 is still with us, so be sure to check the protocols at event venues.
The consequences of living online will be explored at Lifetree Café on Sunday, November
20 at 7 p.m.
The program—titled “Living Online: Provocative Thoughts From the Author of ‘Is Google
Making Us Stupid?’”—features a filmed interview with Nick Carr, a 2011 Pulitzer finalist
who frequently writes about technology and culture.
“This is a very strange moment in history,” Carr says. “People are socializing, looking at
media, and being distracted from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to
bed. I don’t think we fully know yet what the consequences of this shift will be.”
During the program, participants will have the opportunity to discuss the positive and
negative impacts technology has had in their own lives and relationships.
Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café is located at Campbell Creek
Connexion on the corner of Union and 13 th St., Arcata.
Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a
casual, comfortable setting. Questions about Lifetree may be directed to Bob at 707 672
