Join us for a program with Oglala Lakota leader Jim Warne, co-presented by the Climate Reality Project Bay Area Chapter. Warne, an award-winning filmmaker, discusses Native American history and building relationships for climate progress.

Warne notes many Americans lack accurate Native American history knowledge, often receiving a narrow perspective despite over 550 tribes and 200 languages. He emphasizes historical inaccuracies contribute to an "ignorance by design," hindering understanding.

This video, featuring Rollie from Climate Town, explains why the "carbon footprint" concept is a scam. BP oil created this idea decades ago to shift responsibility for carbon emissions from corporations to individuals, effectively an elaborate victim-blaming scheme. While individual footprints matter, their existence is largely due to fossil fuel companies like BP fighting against a transition from oil and gas.

The Center protects global biodiversity by applying U.S. and international law to conserve imperiled species worldwide. Endangered wildlife knows no borders, and our work addresses the extinction crisis wherever it occurs.

Learn about our efforts to safeguard African wildlife, from iconic elephants and giraffes to unique pangolins and sea cucumbers. We need your support to combat the wildlife trade fueling these extinctions. Our International Director, Sarah Uhlemann, and International Legal Director, Tanya Sanerib, will share insights into this vital work.

Rapid human population growth and overconsumption drive critical environmental crises, including the wildlife extinction crisis, habitat loss, and climate change. The Center uniquely tackles these

Rapid human population growth and overconsumption drive critical environmental crises, including the wildlife extinction crisis, habitat loss, and climate change. The Center uniquely tackles these sensitive issues that many environmental groups often overlook.

Our common-sense solutions focus on empowering women and girls, ensuring universal access to reproductive healthcare and education, and developing healthy, secure food systems. We also engage the public through initiatives like distributing over 1 million Endangered Species Condoms with memorable slogans.

Timed with World Population Day on July 11, this presentation features Kelley Dennings, Population and Sustainability Campaigner, and Sarah Baillie, Endangered Species Condoms coordinator, to discuss our vital work.

The circular economy offers a compelling business case for product redesign and new operating models. In a live conversation, members of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation team discussed its underlying values and relevant topics.

They explored how the circular economy differs from sustainability or "recycling on steroids," debating whether efficiency or effectiveness matters more, and if a top-down or bottom-up approach is better.

The broadcast featured four experts from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. Watch the full discussion here: https://youtu.be/HtOV_tGBHz8.

Join members of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation team for a live conversation exploring the circular economy. This compelling concept presents a clear business case for redesigning everyday products and establishing fundamentally new operating models for businesses.

The discussion will delve into critical questions: How does the circular economy differentiate from sustainability or advanced recycling? Is its primary focus on efficiency or effectiveness, and does that distinction matter? Should it be implemented as a top-down or bottom-up approach?

This broadcast features Seb Egerton-Read, Stella Chavin, Sarah O'Carroll, and Laura Franco Henao, who will discuss the underlying values and relevant topics of the circular economy.
