While forests have often been viewed as inert resources, Suzanne Simard’s revolutionary research is transforming forest ecology. A Professor of Forestry at the University of British Columbia, Simard’s groundbreaking work reveals the complex, interconnected nature of forests, particularly the below-ground fungal networks that facilitate interplant communication. Her findings echo the wisdom of First Peoples, offering a new paradigm for sustainable living on Earth.

The "Just Transitions" panel took place on June 25, 2025, as part of the Global Women's Assembly for Climate Justice: Path to COP30 and Beyond, hosted by the Women's Earth and Climate Network (WECAN) from June 23-28. Panelists included gina cortés valderrama (Colombia), Lorraine Chiponda (Zimbabwe), Serena Mendizábal (Canada), Ayshka Najib (UAE), and Margaret Kwateng (USA).

Organized by WECAN, the Assembly convened over 125 grassroots and frontline women leaders, global advocates, and policymakers from 50 countries.

A reactivated global Corporate Leaders Network (CLN) was launched at COP27 on November 11. Its aim is to catalyze national business advocacy on climate policy, uniting policy, NGO, and international business stakeholders to manage risks and seize opportunities in the transition to a low-carbon society.

Building on relationships fostered by Corporate Leaders Groups (CLGs) since 2010, the CLN formally re-establishes collaboration with global business groups. It will support the creation of new corporate leaders' groups worldwide, strengthening the network. Previous members are reinvited to join if their missions align.

COP26 aims for measurable progress in mitigation, adaptation, and finance, urging non-state actors, including businesses and financial institutions, to join the Race to Zero and set ambitious net-zero targets. Collaboration across governments, financial institutions, and corporates is crucial for achieving these transformations.

This event, held on Friday, November 5th, in Glasgow, convened leaders from government, finance, and corporate sectors. Participants examined current progress and discussed essential actions beyond COP26 to halve global emissions by 2030, foster post-pandemic recovery, and build climate resilience for communities and nature. Experts shared diverse perspectives on these critical challenges.

This episode explores how resetting systems empowers better choices. We examine ReLondon's circular economy initiatives, Barcelona's superblocks creating pedestrian spaces, and Sao Paulo's efforts to redesign the food system. The discussion also covers the circular economy's first principle—eliminating waste and pollution—and addresses key fashion questions.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, champions a circular economy that eliminates waste, circulates products, and regenerates nature. For more insights, subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Ms. Lia Nicholson discusses wealth creation as a top priority in Africa, noting that historical development was carbon-intensive. Amid global net-zero targets, she outlines three low-carbon development scenarios for Sub-Saharan Africa: jobs-for-emissions, clean industrialization, and leapfrogging to a services economy.

Nicholson is optimistic that 8 billion people can live sustainably. She advises governments and companies on environmental policy, currently supporting four West African cities with C40 to develop climate action plans for resilience and net-zero emissions. A Yale and Scripps alumna and award recipient, her insights were shared at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

Unsustainable, extractive farming practices have led to environmental and public health crises, depleting nature and driving climate change and biodiversity loss. With agriculture using half our land, farmers are crucial stewards. We must shift from extractive systems to regenerative, sustainable, and circular approaches.

In this talk, The Prince of Wales supports an international framework for measuring farm sustainability. A long-time advocate for sustainability, he has championed British farming and a more sustainable food future, raising awareness for critical issues.

This talk was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

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.
