As changing weather patterns bring stronger storms and droughts, we must restore land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age, with its gas cars, has caused immense environmental damage from extraction to emissions. Paved surfaces destroy ecosystems and absorb heat, a problem EVs won't solve. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this disaster.

The Center for Biological Diversity challenged the Federal Highway Administration over Interstate 11, citing its threat to endangered species like the cactus ferruginous pygmy owl. These tiny, fierce owls, weighing just 70 grams, are vital to the Sonoran Desert. Watch a video about them: Endangered Earth Online 1,224.

As a Tucson-based 501c3 nonprofit, the Center protects diverse wild animals and plants. We use science, law, and creative media to secure a future for all species, focusing on the lands, waters, and climate they need to survive. Learn more and take action at biologicaldiversity.org.

Angelina Xu, 17, founded a food recovery and composting program in 2018, addressing middle school food waste and insecurity. It collected unopened food for school food banks and sent cafeteria waste for composting. By 2021, her program became Compostology, a youth-led nonprofit now involving 35,000 participants managing 24 K-12 school programs across Maryland.

Compostology received a World Wildlife Fund grant in 2021. In 2023, a student campaign spearheaded by Compostology passed SB 124, allocating $1.25 million for K-12 schools to implement their own programs. Compostology is now rolling out this grant program, ensuring accessibility for all schools.

Building materials contribute an estimated 5 to 15 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Imagine using materials that not only require less carbon to produce but also actively capture and store it. In California, architect Dylan Johnson and Yvon Chouinard, alongside a seasoned crew, constructed two houses using straw bales that would otherwise have gone to waste.

This innovative project demonstrates that natural building isn’t just better for the climate—it’s a superior way to build. Watch "Home, Grown" to learn more.

Amara Ifeji, 20, recognized the lack of environmental opportunities in marginalized communities. In 2018, she began facilitating environmental learning for students of color. She later became a director for the Maine Environmental Changemakers Network, an intergenerational group of 400+ youth promoting a just, inclusive, and equitable environmental movement.

Amara elevates youth voices in state and federal policy. In 2021, she coordinated Maine’s first climate education summit, gathering young people’s visions. This led to her helping create and implement a bill funding over $2 million for climate education in the state. Learn more at broweryouthawards.org.
