Taylor McKinnon, an accidental artist and dedicated activist, serves as the Southwest Director for the Center for Biological Diversity. He oversees efforts to protect wildlands and endangered species, spearheading campaigns to end federal fossil fuel leasing and ban uranium mining around the Grand Canyon.

In this artist talk, McKinnon explores nature photography as a practice of natural history, intertwining observation, art, love, and activism. He will discuss his process in the field and Lightroom, including the compositional freedom of long lenses and developing a minimalist style absent art theory. McKinnon will also share abstract landscape photography not featured in the exhibit.

This infographic and animation tracks cumulative natural gas wells drilled in Pennsylvania from January 2005 to April 2012, highlighting the state's transition from conventional vertical to horizontal drilling.

Horizontal wells, primarily in the Marcellus, Utica, and Geneseo/Burket shale formations, increased significantly. Concurrently, less productive vertical wells declined, resulting in an overall decrease in new well counts.

Scientists have long studied climate change; now, the focus must shift to implementing solutions. As a technologist, I see immense potential for innovation to mitigate warming impacts—from preventing deforestation and preserving biodiversity to ensuring food security. The ambitious goal, central to "Operation Earth," is to leverage technology not just to limit warming, but to reverse damage and reduce global temperatures by one degree Celsius.

This urgent call to action comes from Daniela Rus, Director of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and a distinguished professor. Her expertise in robotics and data science highlights the innovative approaches required. This talk was delivered at a TEDx event, which you can learn more about here.

Our team, partners, and local communities are collaboratively tackling plastic pollution. In Panama City, we've partnered with Marea Verde Panama, utilizing research and cutting-edge technology to map waterways and reduce river pollution before it reaches the ocean. This effort is part of our 30 Cities Program, which aims to prevent up to one-third of all river plastic emissions from entering the ocean.

By understanding how plastic moves through local waterways, we create lasting social, economic, and environmental benefits for the people who live there.
