Prime Minister Sanna Marin of Finland visited Columbia for a World Leaders Forum event, offering students and faculty an 'extraordinary experience' with a leading sustainability figure. The event was hosted by Alex Halliday, director of Columbia’s Earth Institute, and moderated by Karenna Gore, director of the Center for Earth Ethics.

Columbia has long tackled climate change through cutting-edge research and grassroots student movements. A new series, 'Columbia on Climate,' now highlights the university’s central focus on climate and sustainability within its community.

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.

For millennia, the Chumash people have been a maritime culture, renowned for their plank canoes, *tomols*, used to navigate the Channel Islands. European colonization nearly erased the craft of tomol building, but today, Alan Salazar and his Chumash and Fernandeño Tataviam communities are dedicated to reviving this vital knowledge for future generations.

Support the Tataviam Land Conservancy's project to build two new tomols. This initiative will unite the Fernandeño Tataviam and Chumash tribes through educational events and workshops focused on tomol craft, culture, and paddling. To donate, please specify "Tomol Project" in the message box on the donation page: https://www.tataviam.land/donation/

Scientists recently discovered bats, like Tuvan throat singers and death-metal vocalists, produce sound using ventricular folds instead of vocal cords. A Danish biologist found bats use these for low-frequency calls. With their ability to also make extremely high-pitched calls, bats possess an unparalleled vocal range. The Center for Biological Diversity argues this makes them more akin to grindcore vocalists, who utilize both very low and very high frequencies.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a 501c3 nonprofit, works to secure a future for all species through science, law, and creative media. Check out our video to hear biodiversity-loving grindcore artists and see brutally cute bats. Learn more at biologicaldiversity.org or email us at center@biologicaldiversity.org.
