Beavers offer ancient, nature-based solutions to climate disruption, addressing challenges like droughts, floods, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. This episode of Bioneers' "Nature's Genius" podcast explores how these "rodent relatives" can heal nature by working with it.

Kate Lundquist and Brock Dolman of the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center share their journey as "Beaver Believers." They are part of a passionate global movement to restore beavers, demonstrating how these animals help balance human civilization with living systems.

As climate challenges escalate, communities increasingly recognize that effective action and resilience hinge on ecological boundaries—watersheds, food, energy, and culture sheds—rather than just political maps. This bioregional perspective is crucial for redefining governance and building political-ecological alliances that prioritize equity and justice.

A visionary group of climate action organizers, including Indigenous leader Eriel Deranger, Rights of Nature attorney Thomas Linzey, climate justice lawyer Colette Pichon Battle (Taproot Earth), and OneEarth founder Justin Winters, illuminate pathways for practical climate solutions and emerging eco-governance.

This conversation took place at the Bioneers 2025 Conference. Explore more keynote talks and discussions at bioneers.org.

Vince Hall challenges conventional hunger solutions, arguing communities already possess enough food. He debunks traditional approaches and their environmental impact, advocating for effective food rescue programs to end hunger and save the planet.

As CEO of Feeding San Diego, the county’s leading hunger relief agency, Hall spearheads innovative food rescue efforts. Under his leadership, the organization provides over 25 million meals annually, addressing hunger for one-eighth of San Diegans, including 127,000 children.

Hall brings extensive nonprofit and public sector management experience, notably as Staff Director for Governor Gray Davis. This talk was delivered at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

The "Rights of Nature" movement aims to protect rivers, mountains, and entire ecosystems by recognizing their inherent legal rights to exist, persist, flourish, and evolve, rather than treating them as property. This radical framework has gained global momentum, spreading from tribal lands to cities and nations.

In this session, activist attorneys Frank Bibeau, Thomas Linzey, and Samantha Skenandore, moderated by Alexis Bunten, will update us on their successes and challenges in Indian Country and beyond.

In 2018, scientists warned we have until 2030 to halve global emissions to avoid irreversible climate tipping points. Yet, that same year, Exxon aimed to increase oil and gas sales by 25% by 2030. This panel will explore three strategic approaches to target oil majors' bottom line and social license, aiming for an orderly wind-down of the fossil fuel industry within two decades and rapid growth of a clean energy economy.

Hosted by Rick Reed, Philanthropic Advisor, the panel features Sarah Thomas, Senior Advisor to the Funder Collaborative on Oil and Gas, and Rebekah Hinojosa, Sierra Club's Gulf Coast Campaign Representative.

Endangered Blanding's turtle hatchlings begin their journey into the wild. These turtles can live 80 years, but their population is critically threatened by predation, disease, habitat destruction, and human collection.

In 2011, a Center petition secured CITES protection for Blanding's turtles. The Center, joined by renowned scientists like E.O. Wilson, further petitioned in 2012 for U.S. Endangered Species Act protection for the turtle and 52 other threatened amphibians and reptiles.

While not yet federally protected in the U.S., Blanding's turtles are safeguarded by state laws in several states.

Explore groundbreaking developments in recognizing the legal rights of nature, including efforts by Indigenous communities to draft and adopt such laws. This bold approach, treating nature as a living entity with legal rights, offers a revolutionary path to protect the planet, enabling courts to enforce the rights of rivers, mountains, and forests.

Hear directly from communities on the front lines mobilizing to build a new environmental law system. Featuring insights from Mari Margil and Thomas Linzey of the Center for Democratic and Environmental Rights, alongside Guy Reiter, Executive Director of Menikanaehkem – Community Rebuilders.
