Join New York Times bestselling author Paul Hawken live on March 19, 2025, for an insightful journey into carbon, the planet's most versatile element. Often maligned as a climate change driver, carbon is, in fact, essential for all life, animating the entire living world. Lesley McClurg, Science Reporter for KQED, will also speak.

In his new book, *Carbon: The Book of Life*, Hawken explores this ubiquitous element's omnipresence, charting its role across planetary history, plants, animals, and food systems. He offers a new narrative, inviting us to embrace carbon's life-giving power and its possibilities for the future, seeing nature, carbon, and ourselves as inseparably intertwined.

Nobel laureate Paul Nurse calls evolution by natural selection "the most beautiful idea in biology." He unpacks Charles Darwin's theory, revealing how complexity emerges without a designer and highlighting the profound impact of tiny variations on our understanding of life.

Nurse explores the deep genetic connections linking all organisms, from humans to yeast. This shared ancestry prompts a crucial question: if all life is related, what is our responsibility to the living world?

Paul Nurse, a British biochemist, was awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize for his discoveries regarding cell cycle regulation and served as Rockefeller University's ninth president.

The ocean, vital for Earth's oxygen, carbon storage, and climate, supports the majority of our planet's life. Yet, the International Seabed Authority is considering opening the deep sea to companies vying to extract millions of tons of minerals like manganese, cobalt, nickel, and lithium. This heavy equipment mining threatens fragile deep-sea ecosystems.

Arlo Hemphill, Lead Ocean Campaigner for Greenpeace USA, exposes how the laws of the sea are being evaded to accommodate these mining interests.

As changing weather patterns bring stronger storms and droughts, we must restore land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age, with its gas cars, has caused immense environmental damage from extraction to emissions. Paved surfaces destroy ecosystems and absorb heat, a problem EVs won't solve. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this disaster.

Plastic poses serious health risks, from its production harming communities to its breakdown into ubiquitous microplastics infiltrating our environment and bodies. Over 9 billion tonnes have been produced since 1950, with ocean debris potentially outweighing all fish soon.

Greenpeace's John Hocevar will attend negotiations in Ottawa for a binding Global Plastic Treaty. Join the campaign by signing a letter to President Biden, urging a strong treaty: Greenpeace USA.

Greenland’s ice sheets hold enough freshwater to raise sea levels over twenty feet. While not an immediate threat, recent research shows glaciers are shrinking seven times faster than a few

Greenland’s ice sheets hold enough freshwater to raise sea levels over twenty feet. While not an immediate threat, recent research shows glaciers are shrinking seven times faster than a few years ago, losing an average of 30 million tonnes per hour.

This influx of freshwater into the ocean significantly impacts the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which is vital for maintaining global weather patterns. Experts like Peter Wadhams and Paul Beckwith are studying these critical changes.

The global climate emergency is undeniable, with extreme weather impacting every continent—from wildfires and heatwaves to droughts and ocean temperature anomalies. Despite these clear signs, political action to end fossil fuel subsidies remains insufficient. What future awaits us?

In this program, Peter Carter (Climate Emergency Institute) and Paul Beckwith (Climate System Scientist) explain why transitioning from fossil fuels is essential for our survival. The discussion is hosted by Dale Walkonen and edited by Mike Coe.

Canadian wildfires are generating hazardous smoke, drifting across the Northeastern and Midwestern U.S. These tiny particles pose serious health risks to the lungs, heart, and brain. Climate change is exacerbating the situation, with unpredictable weather, ice storms, and drought fueling the fires, which have already released 17 million tons of CO2.

Experts Paul Beckwith and Patrick Hogan explain this worsening air quality as a critical symptom of the climate crisis. When smoke reached Washington D.C., legislators experienced firsthand the effects, reminiscent of the 1930s Dustbowl. The key question is whether this event will finally prompt significant action.

Life on our planet faces imminent danger, demanding a shift from exploitation to caretaking and restoration. Cultivating our connection with nature is vital for both sanity and survival, fostering emotional and mental resilience amidst overwhelming challenges.

Psychotherapist Eva Jahn founded the Climate Emotional Resilience Institute (CERI) to address this crisis, providing coping skills and community support. She joins Paul Beckwith and Dale Walkonen for this conversation.
