As President-elect Biden prepares to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement, marking its 5-year anniversary, we turn to Christiana Figueres for insights on global climate commitments. As former Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC (2010-2016), Figueres marshaled 196 countries to sign the 2015 accord. She later co-founded Global Optimism to catalyze transformative climate action.

Figueres provides an overview of current climate efforts and future needs. For further details, including her work and related resources, visit her website: christianafigueres.com. Additional conference videos and presentations are available at: cclusa.org/presentations.

Join host Jeff Corwin on a conservation adventure, beginning in Big Sur, California, to aid the California condor's recovery. At the Ventana Wildlife Society sanctuary, Corwin helps prepare juvenile condors for release. Once critically endangered with only 22 individuals in 1982, the population has rebounded to approximately 500 worldwide, with 300 now free-flying. This remarkable success, involving captive breeding and tagging, demonstrates dedicated conservation.

Corwin learns about the challenges of protecting North America's largest flying bird, which has a slow reproductive rate. Later, he travels to Massachusetts to assist the Department of Fish and Wildlife in saving the unique saltmarsh sparrow, a species endemic to East Coast habitats.
