The distance between our green and brown spaces is increasing more and more. Shneel combines bio-research and architecture to design ‘living spaces that blur the lines between natural and concrete jungles. She also proposes a way to empower small-scale artisan communities to adapt futuristic solutions, through economical and easily available cultural techniques - thus creating a sustainable future city. Shneel Malik is a licensed Architect and an interdisciplinary Biodesign researcher. Currently pursuing her PhD Research as part of the Bio-Integrated Design (Bio-ID) Lab at the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London. She investigates the design and fabrication of large-scale photosynthetic membranes for applications within Architecture.

Healthy soil is essential to the future of food production but our planet is losing 24 billion tonnes of fertile soil every year. North Dakota farmer Gabe Brown practices regenerative farming which includes principles and practices to improve soil and promote diversity. By planting a mix of crops, using minimal chemicals, and letting animals graze freely, his family farm is thriving and so are the lands around it. As part of the #OurPlanet initiative we’ve collaborated with the World Economic Forum to show what’s possible when people try to find new ways of tackling climate change and restoring nature. Stay tuned as each week we’ll be bringing you a new inspirational story! Read more: https://wef.ch/pioneersforourplanet #ShareOurPlanet #VoiceForThePlanet

Dr Lindsay Murray’s talk will highlight examples of the impact of climate change, largely through human activity, on wildlife and, using the experience of the ‘anthropause’ during lockdown as a catalyst, aim to encourage a call to action towards greener, wilder and more respectful ways of co-existing with other species in nature for the shared benefit of all. Dr Lindsay Murray is a Senior Lecturer in Animal Psychology at the University. Her research interests are predominantly in primatology, particularly personality, laterality, social behaviour and self-recognition, but also extend to wider aspects of animal behaviour, including elephant grief and ecotourism involving brown bears. She is on the Council of the Primate Society of Great Britain and the Education Committee of the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour, and is a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.

Join host Jeff Corwin on an adventure to the great state of Alaska as he connects with the iconic North American brown bear. Jeff learns how people and bears coexist in Alaska and how we all share a common resource: salmon. Jeff travels into the Alaskan wilderness to observe brown bears up close and finds a mother bear with two cubs, a wild fox, and even watches bears hunt for salmon. Later, Jeff learns how the people of Alaska are managing the salmon across the state, ensuring this vital resource is sustainable for future generations. Video Transcript: Jeff Corwin: Today on Wildlife Nation... Jeff Corwin: "This is so awesome." Jeff Corwin: We are in the wilds of Alaska connecting with some of the largest bears on earth. Jeff Corwin: "Look at this, she's on the chase..." Jeff Corwin: We'll witness their incredible struggles for survival... Jeff Corwin: "and success!" Jeff Corwin: And discover how salmon have helped them become so big. Jeff Corwin: "Wow!" Jeff Corwin: We'll help conservationists manage and sustain salmon for future generations. And we'll enjoy a few surprises along the way. Jeff Corwin: "Wait a minute. Is there someone sneaking behind me?" Jeff Corwin: I'm Jeff Corwin and I've teamed up with defenders of wildlife to celebrate the awesome creatures of North America and the dedicated conservationists working to protect them. And you're invited to join the adventure. This is Wildlife Nation.
