Freshwater mussels employ diverse and ingenious reproductive strategies, often relying on fish as hosts. Some create tantalizing lures to attract fish, expelling larvae onto their gills, while others deploy larva packets on long strings. Researchers have now uncovered a novel tactic used by the endangered thick-shelled river mussel.

This mussel climbs streambanks, partially emerging from the water, and squirts larva-infused jets into the air and onto the surface. The resulting splashes attract fish, which mistake them for insects but inadvertently become hosts for the mussel larvae in their gills.

Mina Bakhshi, Haniya Tavasoli, and Rabia Hussain enjoyed freedoms in Afghanistan, pursuing education and work. Joining Ascend, a nonprofit teaching leadership and rock climbing, allowed them to explore their country's mountains. When the Taliban seized power in August 2021, Ascend became their only chance to escape the restrictive regime.

As Ascend women resettled globally with host families, Yosemite Search and Rescue members Merryn Venugopal and Michelle Pellette invited them to Yosemite. There, they found safe reunion, solace in the climbing community, and a vital connection to home while building new lives.

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 Jeff Corwin on "Wildlife Nation" for an adventure to southern Florida's beaches. He teams with dedicated conservationists to uncover challenges facing sea turtles, releasing hatchlings, diving with researchers for critical data, and helping biologists care for sick and injured turtles.

This episode highlights efforts to protect these ancient, endangered reptiles and bring hope back to the ocean. Corwin, in partnership with Defenders of Wildlife, celebrates North American creatures and the dedicated people protecting them. Check local listings to watch.

Join host Jeff Corwin on an exploration of turtles. He journeys to southern Florida, rescuing gopher tortoises from a land development project by relocating them to protected habitats. Corwin then dives with endangered green sea turtles off the Atlantic coast, assisting scientists in monitoring their delicate population. Later, he travels to Massachusetts to save a tiny terrapin in a wetland marsh.

This adventure is part of "Wildlife Nation," where Jeff Corwin teams up with Defenders of Wildlife to celebrate North America's creatures and the dedicated conservationists working to protect them.

The B Corp Movement has impressively grown, with nearly 5,000 certified companies in 79 countries building an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economic system. Still, the goal is to empower all 125 million companies worldwide (World Bank, 2018) to adopt B Corp principles: positive impact, stakeholder accountability, and transparency.

A recent Skoll World Forum session, hosted by B Lab and Sistema B, outlined a global policy strategy for a new economy. Discussions focused on policies fostering Stakeholder Governance, emphasizing benefit governance is essential for businesses and capital markets.

This journey requires collaborations and coalitions to strengthen social capital for a new world. Organizations committed to policy-driven systems change are urged to join as backbone partners.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the authoritative source on climate change, responsible for effectively communicating vital information. Nearing the end of its Sixth Assessment Cycle, it's an important moment to reflect on past communication successes, challenges, and lessons learned for future reports.

International media and science communities are invited to mark the launch of a new Topical Collection (TC) in the journal *Climatic Change*. This TC focuses on Climate Change Communication and the IPCC, showcasing expert research and policy insights relevant to the IPCC's work.

A diverse panel of authors will present key findings from three TC papers on public understanding, engaging young people, and democratizing knowledge. IPCC Vice Chair Thelma Krug will offer critical reflections, followed by a Q&A session and a 'pitch contest' to conclude the event.

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.
