Frustrated by the inaccessibility of climate action for young people, Vishruth Dinesh founded The Green Therapy in late 2022. At eight, he realized options like EVs or voting were out of reach for youth, making effective environmentalism seem a privilege. His grassroots organization aims to anchor young people in the climate movement.

The Green Therapy empowers youth through sustainable gardening, which reduces waste, preserves biodiversity, and combats pollution affordably. It partners with 14 San Francisco Bay Area schools, establishing environmental courses and garden programs. These initiatives equip students with practical skills to protect the planet, fostering a lasting connection to nature and building a growing school garden network.

Join us as we explore the lives of small-scale fishers in South Africa. Episode 1 visits Arniston, home to ancient Khoi and San fish traps, featuring an interview with fisherwoman Rowina Europa. We then journey to Gordons Bay to hear from local fisherfolk about climate change's impact on their livelihoods.

This episode is produced by Shaldon Ferris (Khoisan), with interviews including Nico Fredericks, Ellen Mandelozi, and 'Lulu'. Music credits feature saxophone by Tyso, "Natasha" by The Hot Shots, and "Burn your village to the ground" by The Halluci Nation.

Beyond Plastics and Earthjustice submitted public comments to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, detailing extensive human exposure to vinyl chloride, a known carcinogen. Since 2010, illegal releases of this dangerous toxin have occurred every five days, highlighting the harm caused by insufficient oversight.

These findings were announced at a virtual news conference on March 26, featuring speakers from both organizations, community residents, and environmental advocates.

Wallace’s flying frogs employ a unique camouflage strategy: masquerading as bird droppings. Researchers discovered that young froglets, painted to resemble fecal matter with red and white splotches, were attacked half as often by predators as those with solid colors. This "fecal camo" helps these young frogs survive to adulthood, allowing them to grow into the green, web-footed adults found in rainforest canopies.

This fascinating research was highlighted by the Center for Biological Diversity in [Endangered Earth Online](https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/publications/earthonline/endangered-earth-online-no1231.html) and a [Scientific American report](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/this-flying-frog-spends-its-youth-masquerading-as-poop/).

Discover Arizona's surprising connection to the oceans in a talk by Dr. Ed Boyer, Chairman of Environmental Studies at Prescott College. He will link Prescott's high desert to the Gulf of California, sharing captivating stories from years of field research and teaching. Dr. Boyer will explore the Gulf's unique bioregion, drawing parallels with the Red Sea to show how understanding one ocean provides global insights.

With over 40 years leading expeditions, Dr. Boyer will also incorporate observations from his Semester at Sea experience, offering a natural history perspective on the ocean's "moods" and coastal environments. Join us to uncover how this distant body of water resonates with our local community.

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.

Join host Jeff Corwin on "Wildlife Nation" as he journeys across California to connect with North America's magnificent marine mammals and the heroes saving them. He works alongside conservationists rescuing sea lion pups that ingested plastic debris and explores sea otter habitats in Monterey Bay, learning about their group behavior and past near-extinction.

Jeff also collaborates with a research team studying giant elephant seals, collecting vital migration data and discovering the powerful connection between mothers and babies. This adventure, in partnership with Defenders of Wildlife, celebrates these incredible creatures and the dedicated efforts to protect them.
