Last year, Dejah Powell founded Get Them to the Green (G2G) to foster environmental passion among Chicago youth, especially youth of color. G2G's first initiative was a summer camp, engaging 14 young people in environmental justice, sustainability, and food agriculture.

G2G has since partnered with Gardenneers to build a school garden at Powell’s elementary school, providing hands-on outdoor education. The organization also conducts environmental education workshops throughout the city.

Now a Cornell senior, Powell believes understanding environmental problems is key to solving them. She hopes urban environmental education will improve eco-literacy and help under-resourced communities access vital local and global conversations.

Run on Less is a unique event showcasing highly efficient tractor-trailers in real-world trucking operations. Several fleets are demonstrating their most fuel-efficient vehicles and practices.

Seven fleets, including PepsiCo’s Frito Lay Division and Shell, partner with the North American Council on Freight Efficiency. Each has contributed a driver and tractor-trailer to be tracked over a three-week period during normal operations.

Final results will be presented at the NACV conference in Atlanta later this month. Stay updated as the roadshow kicks off today! Visit www.runonless.com and connect on social media using #RunOnLess.

Global Fishing Watch (GFW), a free online tool from Oceana, SkyTruth, and Google, reveals the apparent fishing activity of over 35,000 commercial vessels globally. Regularly updated with data

Global Fishing Watch (GFW), a free online tool from Oceana, SkyTruth, and Google, reveals the apparent fishing activity of over 35,000 commercial vessels globally. Regularly updated with data since 2012, GFW publicly shares vital information to enhance ocean health, support fishery management, and combat illegal fishing. This revolutionary tool empowers governments, journalists, and citizens to track vessels, enforce rules, and protect marine ecosystems.

GFW uses public Automatic Identification System (AIS) data, collected by satellite and terrestrial receivers. Over 20 million data points are added daily, enabling GFW to track vessel movement and classify it as "fishing" or "non-fishing" activity.
