Information that "sticks" isn't always at the top of the impactful action list, explains author Jonathan Safran Foer. "It's one thing to know that there is a cause-and-effect relationship... it's another thing to have to bring that into a kind of engagement with our psychologies and our cravings," says Foer.

Join Pathways to Planetary Health for a conversation with Rebecca Henderson, Harvard University economics professor, and Jonathan F.P. Rose, as they discuss the failings of modern capitalism and how businesses imbued with a sense of purpose can help create more sustainable, ethical economies powered by motivated and dignified personnel. Henderson observes that capitalism is the most successful economic system in history, and yet it’s in danger of destroying itself - and our world. Purpose can help. Cutting-edge research has found that firms that view profits as a means to an end, rather than as an end it itself – and who view their mission as the creation of social value – are often significantly more productive and creative than more conventional firms. They can also be powerful allies in driving the social and political change that is needed if we are to address the great problems of our time. This interactive online event is part of a continuing series in the Garrison Institute’s Forum on Pathways to Planetary Health (PPH). Building on the Garrison Institute’s earlier Climate, Mind and Behavior (CMB) program, Pathways to Planetary Health explores the moral, ethical, and human behavioral dimensions of the search for regenerative solutions, including Half-Earth, Ecological Civilization, Regenerative Economics, and Societal Altruism.

Dr. Haley Mellin, founder of Art-to-Acres and Conserve.org, artist, and researcher and Dr. Steven Brumby CEO/CTO and Co-Founder of Impact Observatory joined Garrison Institute co-founder Jonathan F.P. Rose to discuss innovative approaches to large-scale conservation, biodiversity’s role in planetary health, and using visualization to support these goals. Recorded on January 25, this was the first Pathways to Planetary Health (PPH) Forum event of 2022 and focused on our first pathway, Half-Earth. Half-Earth describes the required lands we, collectively, most conserve in biodiversity rich areas and connecting corridors to stabilize life and climate health on the planet, and emphasizes 50% of terrestrial and ocean conservation by 2050. Half-Earth is one necessary component of planetary health, but not singularly sufficient.

Desde que era un niño pequeño, el Dr. Jonathan Kolby estaba fascinado con los reptiles y anfibios y ahora está trabajando para evitar su extinción en Honduras. Un grave brote de enfermedad global causado por el hongo quitridio está matando a las ranas en todo el mundo, y las especies en los bosques nublados como el Parque Nacional Cusuco cerca de San Pedro Sula tienen mayor riesgo. Jonathan estableció recientemente el Centro de Conservación y Rescate de Anfibios de Honduras, un nuevo programa para Honduras donde las ranas enfermas de Cusuco pueden curarse de la enfermedad y prepararse para la reintroducción en el bosque. La meta de Jonathan no es solo salvar a las especies de la extinción, sino también compartir su amor por la increíble biodiversidad de Honduras con el resto del mundo y ayudar a brindar mayores oportunidades para que los estudiantes hondureños se involucren en la conservación.

There is an inner dimension to climate change that the world is ignoring — a need to heal the disconnection from ourselves, each other, and nature; a need for resilience as we face the chaos ahead.

There is an inner dimension to climate change that the world is ignoring — a need to heal the disconnection from ourselves, each other, and nature; a need for resilience as we face the chaos ahead. Join Jamie Bristow — co-director of The Mindfulness Initiative and one of the world’s leaders in applying mindfulness to politics and public life — for a special discussion about the importance of mindfulness and compassion practices as we move through the ‘age of consequences’ and into a new era of planetary health. In conversation with Garrison Institute co-founder Jonathan F.P. Rose, Jamie also shares top-level findings from the MI’s landmark report published earlier this year, “Reconnection: Meeting the Climate Crisis Inside Out,” which incorporates wisdom from more than two dozen policymakers and politicians, as well as growing research that links internal transformation to environmental sustainability.
