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.

Current renewable energy goals often create a perverse disincentive, leading organizations to purchase ineffective renewable energy certificates rather than deploying local rooftop or community solar. This approach fails to physically clean the electric grid.

A mindset shift, exemplified by the City and County of Denver, can unlock substantial investments. These funds should be reallocated to solutions that enable a physically 100% renewable electric grid and decarbonization, fostering local workforce development, utility savings, and resilient infrastructure.

Jonathan Rogers, Denver's Renewable Energy Specialist, spearheads these efforts, guiding the city towards its 2030 goal for 100% renewable electricity. This talk was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.
