In the world of Pokopia, a lone Ditto awakens to a world ravaged by natural disasters, abandoned by humans, and left nearly uninhabitable. By working together with its fellow Pokémon, Ditto restores the planet one habitat at a time. In this panel, scientists and experts discuss the ways Pokopia is a cautionary tale inspired by the very real dangers the planet faces and people like Ditto who are working to save it. Featuring MB Ramirez (geoscience educator, PBS Eons cohost), Dr. Earyn McGee (herpetologist, science communicator), Dr. Greg Pask (entomologist, Middlebury College), and Bayne Westrick-Snapp (educator, Cabrillo Marine Aquarium), and moderated by Gabriel-Philip Santos (Cosplay for Science cofounder, PBS Eons cohost).
