To move beyond current oligarchies and restore environmental protections and social safety nets, we must build a more equitable, partnership-based economy. Dr. Riane Eisler, author of *The Chalice and the Blade* and *The Real Wealth of Nations*, guides us to recognize our role in societal evolution and preserving life on Earth.

Nick Breeze's book, "COPOUT: How Governments Have Failed the People on Climate," offers an insider's account of UN Climate Conferences (COPs) from Paris 2015 to Dubai. He often crossed paths with the late Stuart Scott, founder of this channel.

Despite nearly 30 years of COPs, emissions have surged 60%, CO2 levels reached 421 ppm, and global temperatures averaged 1.64°C last year, exceeding safe limits. This year's COP in Azerbaijan, led by an oil and gas executive, promises emission reductions and renewable energy, but omits nature restoration.

Plastics are ubiquitous, found in electronics, food packaging, and home insulation. Their total mass now doubles that of all living organisms, impacting Earth's climate systems.

Plastic pollution researcher Patricia Villarrubia-Gómez details the consequences of plastic production, from fossil fuel extraction to the disposal of single-use items in landfills and oceans. Acknowledging this pervasive problem is the crucial first step toward addressing it.

The San Xavier talussnail, one of the world's rarest, lives exclusively on a single Sonoran Desert hill. These hermaphroditic snails can live up to 10 years, estivating for three and active only

The San Xavier talussnail, one of the world's rarest, lives exclusively on a single Sonoran Desert hill. These hermaphroditic snails can live up to 10 years, estivating for three and active only 3-4 days annually. Monsoon rains prompt their emergence from rock crevices to feed on lichen.

These unique snails are central to a major lawsuit filed by the Center against the Trump administration. The suit challenges the administration's failure to protect 241 endangered species, many facing imminent extinction.

The global climate emergency is undeniable, with extreme weather impacting every continent—from wildfires and heatwaves to droughts and ocean temperature anomalies. Despite these clear signs, political action to end fossil fuel subsidies remains insufficient. What future awaits us?

In this program, Peter Carter (Climate Emergency Institute) and Paul Beckwith (Climate System Scientist) explain why transitioning from fossil fuels is essential for our survival. The discussion is hosted by Dale Walkonen and edited by Mike Coe.

March 26, 2009, marked 20 years since the Exxon Valdez spilled nearly 11 million gallons of oil into Prince William Sound. Despite two decades of cleanup and legal battles, residents still struggle for justice, and a complete understanding of the disaster remains elusive.

Investigative reporter Greg Palast, whose career was shaped by the lack of thorough inquiries into the spill, discusses its true history with Ring of Fire's Mike Papantonio. Watch their interview on golefttv.

Governments, constrained by global economic competition, struggle to address the climate crisis effectively. John Bunzl offers The SIMPOL pledge, enabling citizens to vote for politicians who commit to simultaneous climate action once enough nations agree. Corporations can also sign to lower emissions.

Bunzl, with Nick Duffell, co-authored *The SIMPOL Solution*, which explores the psychological, political, and economic barriers preventing unified action on the #ClimateCrisis.

To learn more and take the pledge, visit simpol.org. Businesses can join at theclimatepledge.com. *The Simpol Solution* is available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon. For more information on our planet, visit the FacingFuture Library.
