California boasts a 150-year legacy of environmental leadership, protecting wilderness, restricting oil drilling, regulating emissions, and boosting energy efficiency. Its foresight was recognized in the 1963 Clean Air Act, granting a waiver for stricter state standards—a tool still vital today in challenging national CAFE standard changes.

Explore California's pioneering environmental policy, examining its successes and challenges. The state has committed to 100% zero-carbon electricity and carbon neutrality by 2045. Experts, including John Hofmeister (Shell), Bob Holycross (Ford), and Mary Nichols (CARB), will discuss this bold move for the world's fifth-largest economy. Learn more at https://climateone.org/.

Sarah Goff advocates for a revolutionary nationwide reuse retail system to address overconsumption, waste, and the climate crisis. This system would rival big box stores in convenience and square footage, utilizing existing local resources to eliminate the need for new manufacturing and shipping.

Goff is the executive director and co-founder of The Repurpose Project, a Gainesville, Florida non-profit focused on creative reuse and architectural salvage. Her passion stems from her childhood in the Marshall Islands, where she witnessed ocean plastic pollution and now sees her home threatened by climate change. Her work combines art, science, and a commitment to a better world.

Host Jeff Corwin returns to Massachusetts, joining Dr. Lindsay Rosa of Defenders of Wildlife at the New England Wildlife Center. The center provides vital veterinary care for sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife, from raccoons to owls. Corwin and Rosa highlight the surprising biodiversity of New England and the challenges species face due to human encroachment and pollution.

They observe the rehabilitation of a swan suffering from lead poisoning, a common issue from fishing sinkers and shotgun shells. The team successfully treats the swan and later releases a recovered barn owl into a protected habitat. This experience underscores the critical need for conservation efforts and mindful coexistence to protect our wildlife neighbors. To learn more, visit www.defenders.org/wildlifenation.

On January 28, 2010, the World Economic Forum (weforum.org) addressed increasing energy security concerns. Despite a significant decline in energy prices from their 2008 peak, major producing and consuming economies diverge on developing a more secure and stable energy system.

A central question was: How can producers and consumers develop mutually beneficial approaches to energy security?

Key participants included Ilham Aliyev (President of Azerbaijan), Thierry Desmarest (Chairman, Total), Khalid A. Al Falih (President & CEO, Saudi Aramco), Tony Hayward (Group Chief Executive, BP), Andrew N. Liveris (Chairman & CEO, Dow Chemical Company), and Peter Voser (Chief Executive Officer, Royal Dutch Shell).
