Changing weather patterns, with stronger storms and droughts, demand land restoration. We need to free land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age has brought mobility at a steep environmental cost. Gas cars are disastrous, leading to ecosystem loss as paved surfaces cover soil and absorb heat; EVs don't solve this land-use issue. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this recipe for disaster.

Our bodies are naturally wired to conserve energy, a trait inherited from ancestors who faced food scarcity. Even today, we expend about 1,400 calories daily just to stay alive, leading us to instinctively avoid unnecessary physical activity despite readily available energy sources. This perspective, distinguishing between athletic performance and true health, is explored by Daniel Lieberman, a Harvard professor of Human Evolutionary Biology.

In a preview of Moyers & Company, climate expert Anthony Leiserowitz draws an analogy between small shifts in global average temperature and slight changes in human body temperature. He explains that just as a few degrees can signal serious illness, similar small climate shifts can have profound implications.
