Despite the pandemic, border wall construction persists. Crews are blasting mountains, destroying ancient cacti, sacred sites, and draining springs. These walls disrupt wildlife migrations and harm communities.

Over 650 miles of barriers already exist, cutting through sensitive ecosystems, disrupting animal migration, causing catastrophic flooding, and dividing communities and tribal nations. This unfolding tragedy impacts the region's diverse wildlife, people, and spectacular landscapes.

We are actively fighting this attack in courts, Congress, and communities. This presentation features the Center's Laiken Jordahl, borderlands campaigner, and Randy Serraglio, Southwest advocate.

The border wall is advancing towards a crucial jaguar corridor that links the rugged mountains of Sonora, Mexico, with Arizona's unique sky islands. This area is vital for jaguar movement and genetic diversity.

Randy Seraglio, Southwest Conservation Advocate for The Center, highlights the significant environmental consequences and what is at stake for this endangered species and its habitat.

The "membership economy" is profoundly transforming business, comparable to the industrial revolution, states Silicon Valley consultant Robbie Kellman Baxter. This model shifts the consumer-brand relationship from transactional to relational, emphasizing access over ownership and delivering a "forever promise."

While not a new concept—Charles Dickens used subscriptions—modern technology allows businesses to build these ongoing relationships with unprecedented reach. This shift, exemplified by Netflix's success over Blockbuster, prioritizes consistent value and customer certainty. Baxter, author of "The Membership Economy," details this move from one-time payments to recurring revenue and multi-directional communication.
