Governments, constrained by global economic competition, struggle to address the climate crisis effectively. John Bunzl offers The SIMPOL pledge, enabling citizens to vote for politicians who commit to simultaneous climate action once enough nations agree. Corporations can also sign to lower emissions.

Bunzl, with Nick Duffell, co-authored *The SIMPOL Solution*, which explores the psychological, political, and economic barriers preventing unified action on the #ClimateCrisis.

Portland is celebrated for its strategic land-use planning, earning its reputation as one of the world's greenest and most livable cities. Successful revitalization of areas like the Pearl District and Alberta showcases this commitment. Yet, the city grapples with transforming its aspirations for equitable and healthy communities into concrete action, especially concerning long-stalled projects such as the Memorial Coliseum and Centennial Mills.

Moderated by Brian Libby, this program features John Russell, who will address these development challenges. He will propose solutions to advance urban growth while upholding Portland's core values. This discussion was originally published on January 16, 2013, by the City Club of Portland.

Recent technological advances, notably Project CETI, are enabling us to begin understanding animal communication, starting with sperm whales. This interdisciplinary initiative employs machine learning, robotics, and natural language processing to decipher nonhuman animal communication.

While these technologies offer significant promise for enhancing animal well-being and rights, they also present serious risks of manipulation and exploitation.

To address this, the NYU More-Than-Human Life (MOTH) Program and Project CETI are collaborating to establish ethical and legal guardrails. This conversation features David Gruber and César Rodríguez-Garavito, moderated by Teo Grossman of Bioneers.
