MEPs Pascal Canfin (RENEW) and César Luena (S&D) co-hosted an event in the European Parliament, focusing on the EU Nature Restoration Law.

Businesses increasingly recognize their vital role in transitioning to a resilient, net-zero, nature-positive economy. They understand that nature restoration is key to EU resilience, offering significant socio-economic benefits, including sustainable jobs, recreation, and broader health improvements.

Organized by CLG Europe under the Green Growth Partnership, the event convened EU decision-makers, leading businesses, and NGOs. Discussions centered on how the Law addresses the dual climate and nature crisis, while also providing economic opportunities like high-quality jobs and new sector growth. Ursula Woodburn, Director of the European Corporate Leaders Group, moderated.

Paul Slovic examines "psychic numbing," our tendency to ignore mass tragedies despite valuing individual lives. He explains that as numbers grow, we become desensitized, failing to act against catastrophic losses from poverty, disease, climate disasters, and violence. Understanding this cognitive bias is crucial for motivating effective responses.

Dr. Slovic, a professor of psychology at the University of Oregon and President of Decision Research (which he co-founded), is a leading expert in risk perception. His extensive work, including research on global threats, has earned him numerous accolades, such as election to the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

The Center for Biological Diversity challenged the Federal Highway Administration over Interstate 11, citing its threat to endangered species like the cactus ferruginous pygmy owl. These tiny, fierce owls, weighing just 70 grams, are vital to the Sonoran Desert. Watch a video about them: Endangered Earth Online 1,224.

As a Tucson-based 501c3 nonprofit, the Center protects diverse wild animals and plants. We use science, law, and creative media to secure a future for all species, focusing on the lands, waters, and climate they need to survive. Learn more and take action at biologicaldiversity.org.

"Two American Families: 1991-2024" is a "knockout documentary" (The New York Times) chronicling the economic struggles of two Milwaukee families—one Black, one white—over three decades. From 1991 to 2024, the Stanleys and Neumanns have battled poverty amidst a changing U.S. economy, marked by global shifts and lower-wage work, raising unsettling questions about America's economic future.

With profound intimacy, this FRONTLINE film reveals how these families and their now-grown children have navigated six presidential administrations, facing continuous challenges. As Terry Neumann notes, "It's like we haven't come very far," yet Jackie Stanley declares, "I won't give up." Directed by Tom Casciato and Kathleen Hughes, it offers a powerful window into enduring hardship.

Published on February 19, 2015, the discussion "Dissecting the Diversity Problem: How Can Leadership Make an Impact?" addressed the critical lack of representation in digital technology. Despite the ubiquity of tech, its creators—who increasingly influence policy—rarely reflect the populations most impacted. Women and people of color comprise less than 30% of STEM professionals, a figure that has declined since 1990, highlighting a systemic failure.

This vital conversation, under the theme "Technology for the People, by the People," featured insights from U.S. CTO Megan Smith, FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel, New America President Anne-Marie Slaughter, and Code for Progress Program Director Aliya Rahman. The panel also included Open Technology Institute's Georgia Bullen and was moderated by Alan Davidson.
