The Ellen MacArthur Foundation and WWF are calling for a legally-binding UN treaty to address the entire plastics lifecycle. This urgent appeal is supported by over 2 million people, 700+ civil society groups, 70+ global companies, and more than three-quarters of UN member countries. The escalating global plastic pollution crisis requires a coordinated, worldwide response, as existing voluntary measures are insufficient. World leaders have a critical opportunity at the United Nations Environmental Assembly (UNEA) in February to begin negotiations for this vital treaty. Governments must act now.

My mission is to educate about plastic, advocating for reducing, reusing, and rethinking rather than solely relying on recycling. I aim to inspire others to understand plastic's impact and make a difference.

Guided by the Jewish concept of "Tikkun Olam" (repairing the world), my passion for addressing plastic pollution stems from an elementary school experience observing ecosystem damage. This firsthand realization of my own impact fuels my drive to educate and inspire collective action.

Global insect populations are declining, a serious concern for entomologist Marcus Byrne due to their vital ecosystem services. While factors like pesticides and habitat loss contribute, Byrne's research strongly links this decline to rising atmospheric CO2, urging us to reduce emissions and protect these essential creatures.

Professor of entomology at Wits University, Marcus Byrne's early passion for insects was solidified at the Dung Beetle Research Unit in South Africa, where he discovered the significance of biological control and the fascinating world of dung beetles.

Retired four-star U.S. Army General Stanley McChrystal, drawing on combat experience and work with business leaders, highlights a critical flaw in risk mitigation: focusing only on probability, not the management interface.

His new book, *Risk: A User’s Guide*, co-authored with Anna Butrico, offers a battle-tested system. It proposes a "risk immune system" through ten dimensions of control, enabling proactive anticipation and action against unforeseen challenges. Join General McChrystal to master the unknown.

A massive Norwegian salmon farm is planned near Acadia National Park, threatening Frenchman Bay with noise, light pollution, boat traffic, and billions of gallons of daily waste.

This facility, projected to produce half of Eastern Canada's salmon, risks introducing disease and parasites, often requiring vast amounts of harmful pesticides and chemicals.

Join us in urging Governor Janet Mills to publicly oppose this project and protect Maine’s coastal way of life. Take action: https://www.Oceana.org/SaveMaine

Lydia Jennings, a member of the Huichol (Wixaritari) and Pascua Yaqui (Yoeme) Nations, holds a doctorate in soil microbiology. Her work champions environmental science and the essential role of Indigenous communities, striving for more inclusive academic and environmental landscapes.

When her graduation was canceled due to the pandemic, Lydia celebrated by running 50 miles to honor Indigenous scientists and knowledge keepers—a tribute to the past, present, and future. This inspiring story is captured in a film by Devin Whetstone and Jordan Marie Daniel.

Special thanks to Rising Hearts for making this film possible. Music was composed by Stephanie Nicora & Bill Reynolds, featuring vocalist Eden Fine Day, and songs by Portugal. The Man and Raye Zaragoza.
