Decades of warnings about climate change, fueled by CO2 emissions, highlight a warming atmosphere, melting ice, and collapsing ecosystems. Despite warnings, society's slow response has brought us to a critical juncture. Now, contemporary climate activism, especially by young people, offers hope for the radical systemic changes needed to save humankind.

Jakub Hrbáň, a Slovak coordinator for "Fridays For Future," embodies this hope. After high school, he joined the March 2019 climate strike and completed Sweden's Youth Initiative Program. He now leads "Miznúca Domovina" (Disappearing Homeland), a project merging ecology, education, and passion to spread climate awareness. This talk was given at a TEDx event.

Session 2 of The Boulder Forum on Economy, Climate and Community explored how public policy perpetuates fossil fuel dependency, a less-considered aspect of climate change. The forum, hosted by the City of Boulder with Bioneers as a partner, features global discussions on the economy's role in climate.

Speakers included Lolita Jackson, former NYC lead climate strategist who shaped the city's energy transition, and Robert Hockett, a Cornell Law professor who advised Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the Green New Deal and authored "Financing the Green New Deal." Colorado State Senator Steve Fenberg, a champion of climate legislation, also participated as a local panelist.

Canadian wildfires are generating hazardous smoke, drifting across the Northeastern and Midwestern U.S. These tiny particles pose serious health risks to the lungs, heart, and brain. Climate change is exacerbating the situation, with unpredictable weather, ice storms, and drought fueling the fires, which have already released 17 million tons of CO2.

Experts Paul Beckwith and Patrick Hogan explain this worsening air quality as a critical symptom of the climate crisis. When smoke reached Washington D.C., legislators experienced firsthand the effects, reminiscent of the 1930s Dustbowl. The key question is whether this event will finally prompt significant action.

Climate change poses significant, widespread disruptions to the American economy, threatening our health, safety, and prosperity. Immediate action from policymakers and businesses is vital to mitigate climate risk. This panel will highlight innovative public-private solutions, discussing how businesses, governments, and communities can collaborate for greater resilience.

Panelists include: Joel Beauvais (U.S. EPA), Pam O'Connor (City of Santa Monica), Harriet Tregoning (U.S. HUD), and Kate Dineen (NY Governor's Office of Storm Recovery).

Changing weather patterns, with stronger storms and droughts, demand land restoration. We need to free land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age has brought mobility at a steep environmental cost. Gas cars are disastrous, leading to ecosystem loss as paved surfaces cover soil and absorb heat; EVs don't solve this land-use issue. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this recipe for disaster.

Despite scientific consensus on human-caused climate change, political rhetoric, such as President-elect Trump's "hoax" claim, emboldens denial. This fuels public anxiety over potential fossil fuel expansion and the reversal of climate progress, a significant shift from past bipartisan support.

Join us for an informative look at how climate change became so divisive. Climate scientist Michael Mann and cartoonist Tom Toles offer a satirical perspective, while science journalist Cristine Russell discusses the politicization of science. Psychologist Renee Lertzman explores the psychology of denial, aiming to foster common ground and solutions.

A new investigation uncovers how the coal industry, through a secretive network of giants, lobbyists, and media, has infiltrated Australia's federal government. This influence aims to halt climate action and stall the transition to clean energy, impacting political decisions up to the Prime Minister's office.

This documentary film exposes the dark heart of Australian politics, following veteran investigative journalist Michael West (michaelwest.com.au). It was co-directed by award-winning filmmaker Chris Phillips (thingsbychris.com) and Greenpeace Australia Pacific's Kim Paul Nguyen.
