Free online data, including satellite, sensor, and climate models, empowers individuals to understand and address air pollution and climate change. These petabytes of resources offer immense value in devising solutions to critical environmental issues.

James Poetzscher, a 17-year-old high school student, exemplifies this. He has authored four research papers, mapped global air pollution decline for the European Environmental Bureau (published by BBC, Reuters), and created a global map inventory on his website greeenhousemaps.com. He also built an air quality data portal and writes for major media. James aims to inspire young people to take collective action on these century-defining issues.

Listen to the latest Citizens’ Climate Radio episode featuring Tykee James, Government Affairs Coordinator

Listen to the latest Citizens’ Climate Radio episode featuring Tykee James, Government Affairs Coordinator at the National Audubon Society. Tykee organizes bird walks for Congress and discusses the incredibly successful Black Birders Week.

A birder since his teens, Tykee co-founded Black Birders Week last year after a racist incident. Organized rapidly via social media, the event showcased birding by people of color, generating over 600 million impressions and national press coverage.

Tykee joins the podcast to discuss the campaign's success, the importance of sharing Black experiences beyond trauma narratives, and his plans for this year's Black Birders Week.

James Glattfelder, a complexity theorist, studies how interconnected systems, like a bird swarm, are more than the sum of their parts. He applies this theory to the global economy, offering insights into its intricate workings.

Glattfelder's groundbreaking study reveals how control is concentrated among a surprisingly small number of entities. This significant power concentration leaves the entire global economy vulnerable. His findings were presented at TEDxZurich and published on February 13, 2013.

On August 17, 2020, the Trump administration opened the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge's 1.5 million-acre Coastal Plain to oil and gas lease sales, possibly by December. This decision, amidst an oil glut and climate change concerns, targets the last 5% of America's previously protected Arctic Coastal Plain. It threatens to transform these wild lands into an industrial complex, jeopardizing the Gwich'in Nation's food security, spiritual, and cultural heritage—they call it "the sacred place where life begins." This move also endangers polar bears, the Porcupine Caribou herd, and migratory birds, marking a critical environmental and social justice conflict.

A video features Gwich'in community members from the 2016 Gwich'in Gathering, testifying against this development.
