Join us for an online talk with acclaimed environmental journalist Eugene Linden, author of nine non-fiction books. He will discuss his new book, *Fire and Flood*, which examines how business interests have historically obscured scientific warnings and hindered climate action. Linden, whose *Winds of Change* won the Grantham Prize, previously covered environmental issues for *Time*.

In *Fire and Flood*, Linden reveals how big money prioritizes short-term profits over long-term threats. He details the insurance industry's dramatic shift, now retreating from high-risk regions like Florida and California due to unmanageable fire and flood risks. This signals a broader business awakening to the urgent need for rapid climate action as long-term consequences become immediate.

The "Reconciling Ways of Knowing Series, Dialogue 3: Braiding Ways of Knowing" featured Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of *Braiding Sweetgrass*, in conversation with Dr. Nancy Turner. They explored how Indigenous and scientific ways of knowing can be integrated, drawing from Dr. Kimmerer's work on traditional ecological knowledge and moss ecology.

Project founders Miles Richardson, Dr. David Suzuki, and Elder Dr. Dave Courchene, Jr. joined the discussion. They connected Dr. Kimmerer's insights to the project's objective: building better relationships across diverse knowledge systems and achieving improved stewardship outcomes.

The video suggests a significant evolutionary leap: inner spiritual evolution, as vital as life's emergence. Russell argues this shift in consciousness is crucial for successfully managing global crises.

The 2020 pandemic has underscored the critical need for local economic developers to adapt and guide communities through recovery. As the global economy struggles, their ability to innovate and lead is more vital than ever in navigating new business landscapes.

Jon Maynard, President and CEO of the Oxford-Lafayette County Economic Development Foundation (EDF) in Mississippi, offers a timely approach. He advocates for creating economic development by supporting local ecosystems rather than subsidizing large industrial locations, aiming to raise per capita income.
