COP discussions on climate change mitigation and adaptation have proven ineffective. Instead, planetary-scale action is crucial for restoring natural ecological function. John D. Liu leads this effort, engaging thousands across over 80 global restoration projects.

Nick Breeze, author of COPOUT, and Liu explore ways to protect Earth’s vital systems. This program, from COP29 in Baku, includes an inspiring clip from "The Flourishing Path" featuring Jane Goodall.

Nick Breeze's book, "COPOUT: How Governments Have Failed the People on Climate," offers an insider's account of UN Climate Conferences (COPs) from Paris 2015 to Dubai. He often crossed paths with the late Stuart Scott, founder of this channel.

Despite nearly 30 years of COPs, emissions have surged 60%, CO2 levels reached 421 ppm, and global temperatures averaged 1.64°C last year, exceeding safe limits. This year's COP in Azerbaijan, led by an oil and gas executive, promises emission reductions and renewable energy, but omits nature restoration.

Clem Ogilby, a career preservationist, discusses his passion for saving buildings. He helps clients repurpose residential and commercial structures using green principles while maintaining a traditional or historic aesthetic. Ogilby argues that demolition is often unnecessary and not a sustainable practice. His current project involves saving the 1880 Morris Marks House, which faces demolition if not moved and restored.

This video, produced by Ruth Ann Barrett of EarthSayers.tv, emphasizes that sustainability must include the preservation of existing, useful, and historic buildings. The content was originally posted by EarthSayer on June 30, 2010.

The global climate emergency is undeniable, with extreme weather impacting every continent—from wildfires and heatwaves to droughts and ocean temperature anomalies. Despite these clear signs, political action to end fossil fuel subsidies remains insufficient. What future awaits us?

In this program, Peter Carter (Climate Emergency Institute) and Paul Beckwith (Climate System Scientist) explain why transitioning from fossil fuels is essential for our survival. The discussion is hosted by Dale Walkonen and edited by Mike Coe.

Governments, constrained by global economic competition, struggle to address the climate crisis effectively. John Bunzl offers The SIMPOL pledge, enabling citizens to vote for politicians who commit to simultaneous climate action once enough nations agree. Corporations can also sign to lower emissions.

Bunzl, with Nick Duffell, co-authored *The SIMPOL Solution*, which explores the psychological, political, and economic barriers preventing unified action on the #ClimateCrisis.

To learn more and take the pledge, visit simpol.org. Businesses can join at theclimatepledge.com. *The Simpol Solution* is available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon. For more information on our planet, visit the FacingFuture Library.
