This picture was submitted by Rachel Ward, a graduate student in the Anthropology Department.
How the photo relates to the theme of 'risk':
"This photo was taken in Lake Tahoe, California, where beautiful evergreen trees are in a constant struggle for survival due to wildfire, drought, and logging. This photo shows a large section of trees that were cleared to accommodate power lines for vacation homes. Are we willing to risk losing the natural world in efforts for "progress" and technology?"
