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.

Indigenous communities face new struggles due to extractivism for transition minerals like copper, nickel, cobalt, and lithium. These minerals are vital for electric vehicle batteries and other green technologies, yet their extraction profoundly impacts Indigenous lands and livelihoods.

Activists and community leaders advocate for a Just Transition to a green economy. They emphasize that Indigenous Peoples' rights must be central to shifting investment portfolios towards net zero, ensuring equity and sustainability.

The "Westwood Next Door" project, developed by the M06 student group, proposed sustainable interventions for Seattle's Westwood-Highland Park neighborhood. Operating under the motto "small measures for big changes," their goal was to improve the area by considering residents' needs and interests, specifically avoiding gentrification.

The strategy focused on promoting sustainable thinking, community engagement, green transportation, streetscape greening, and temporary uses for brownfields and vacant buildings. This winning initiative was part of the C40 Students Reinventing Cities global competition. Learn more about this project: Westwood-Highland Park Project.
