Colonial oppression severely damaged the relationship between tribal communities and their traditional lands. However, a new generation of First Nations activists is now working to restore these vital connections.

These activists are dedicated to safeguarding Indigenous identity for future generations. Their efforts include protecting traditional territories and sacred sites, while also renewing Indigenous land stewardship practices.

Key figures in this movement include Eriel Deranger (Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation), Valentin Lopez (Amah Mutsun Tribal Band), and Cara Romero (Mohave-based Chemehuevi Tribe).

Scientists increasingly find intelligence and consciousness prevalent across nature. This understanding demands we rethink what it truly means to be an animal.

Visionary naturalist Carl Safina suggests that understanding other species begins with observation and humility.

Amara Ifeji mobilized a grassroots effort to address racism in her high school in Maine, at age 14. She also developed a love for the mountains and woods around her, but she saw her passions for the environment and racial justice as distinct until she heard youth of color like herself share their experiences working at this intersection and realized these struggles were completely intertwined. She will share how this awakening shaped her subsequent work as a remarkably effective organizer and advocate who centers storytelling to realize environmental justice, climate education, and outdoor learning for ALL youth.

Amara Ifeji, 21, is an award-winning (2021 National Geographic Young Explorer and 2022 Brower Youth Award) climate justice activist, and Director of Policy at the Maine Environmental Education Association.
