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.

Join host Jeff Corwin on an adventure across the Great Plains, exploring the vital connection between species. He assists Native American tribes in re-establishing bison herds, a keystone species that once shaped the ecosystem. Historically, bison were nearly wiped out by western expansion, devastating both the plains and tribal cultures that depended on them.

The loss of bison had ripple effects, impacting predators, scavengers, and species like black-footed ferrets. Conservationists, led by the Intertribal Buffalo Council, are working to restore at least ten large herds. This effort not only revitalizes the environment but also helps Native American communities reconnect with their cultural heritage, ensuring the survival of the Great Plains ecosystem.

Lydia Jennings, a member of the Huichol (Wixaritari) and Pascua Yaqui (Yoeme) Nations, holds a doctorate in soil microbiology. Her work champions environmental science and the essential role of Indigenous communities, striving for more inclusive academic and environmental landscapes.

When her graduation was canceled due to the pandemic, Lydia celebrated by running 50 miles to honor Indigenous scientists and knowledge keepers—a tribute to the past, present, and future. This inspiring story is captured in a film by Devin Whetstone and Jordan Marie Daniel.
