Women worldwide, particularly in the "developing world," disproportionately bear the brunt of climate change and environmental degradation, yet their voices are frequently overlooked. Climate, physical, and psycho-spiritual health are deeply interconnected, not separate issues.

A panel of leading women activists, including Zainab Salbi, Nina Simons, Justin Winters, Kahea Pacheco, and Helena Gualinga, explored climate's impact on women. They advocated for women's full inclusion in all climate solutions, linking these struggles to personal healing and authentic global change.

This discussion took place at the 2022 Bioneers Conference. Learn more at http://www.bioneers.org.

Texas is a global petrochemical hub, leading the U.S. in refining capacity and production. The Greater Houston area alone accounts for over 42% of the nation's base capacity.

This industrial concentration disproportionately affects fenceline communities, often low-income communities of color. They face increased health and environmental risks from facility expansions, which the Texas Commission for Environmental Quality frequently approves despite public resistance.

As global urbanization accelerates, affordable housing has become a critical concern. Dr. Joan Clos, Executive Director of UN-Habitat, advocates for housing to be central to urban planning, design, and overall strategy. This emphasis is crucial for addressing the affordable housing challenge.

Affordability, as defined in a recent MGI report, represents the financial burden a household bears—typically 30-40% of its income. This information was published March 19, 2015.

Jeff Corwin explores the Great Plains' interconnected species. He aids bison re-establishment with Native American tribes and conserves black-footed ferrets, once thought extinct. Ferrets critically depend on prairie dogs, a keystone species decimated by habitat loss and Sylvatic plague, nearly causing their extinction. The species was famously rediscovered by a dog named Shep.

Conservation efforts involve canine teams, like Melissa Steen and Tule, locating ferrets in prairie dog burrows. Spotlight teams, including Chamois Andersen, then find and trap ferrets at night. Biologists like Jessica Alexander collect vital data and administer life-saving vaccines against Sylvatic plague, ensuring this fragile population's survival.

Jeff Corwin joins conservationists in California to protect pinnipeds, including elephant seals and sea lions. Organizations like the Marine Mammal Care Center and Defenders of Wildlife are crucial in rescuing and rehabilitating these animals, which face severe threats from climate change, overfishing, habitat loss, and plastic pollution.

Corwin assists Dr. Lauren Palmer and Andy Johnson in rehabilitating four malnourished California sea lion pups, one of whom ingested plastic. After critical care, tagging, and weighing, the pups are successfully released back into the wild. This effort underscores the vital role of conservation in giving endangered animals a second chance and addressing environmental challenges for ecosystem health.

Join host Jeff Corwin to celebrate the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and its profound impact on wildlife. The bald eagle, once critically endangered, now thrives as a powerful symbol of conservation success, thanks to the ESA. This landmark 1973 bipartisan legislation protects vulnerable species and their ecosystems.

Corwin visits Florida's Boca Raton beaches, a vital nesting site for sea turtles. Conservationists Elizabeth Fleming and David Anderson demonstrate how habitat protection is crucial for species like loggerheads. Excavating a nest reveals successful hatchlings, underscoring that safeguarding their environment allows these keystone species to survive. Six of the world's seven sea turtle species nest in America, all protected by the ESA. Learn more at defenders.org/wildlifenation.
