A panel featuring Geraldine Link (National Ski Areas Association), Mike Mielke (Silicon Valley Leadership Group), and Joseph Brinkley (Fetzer Vineyards) explores effective business climate advocacy and support for carbon pricing policies.

Business leaders are invited to the Business Advocates for Carbon Pricing conference. Learn about carbon pricing and the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, and discover how to advocate for these crucial climate solutions. This event is for both new and endorsing businesses.

Citizens' Climate Lobby (CCL) empowers individuals across 450+ chapters to build bipartisan support for national climate solutions. Find out more: energyinnovationact.org, businessclimateleaders.org, citizensclimatelobby.org.

At COP28 in Dubai, Raya Salter and Carlos Garcia hosted a panel examining the climate impact of military operations. With global conflicts destroying cities, lives, and ecosystems, peace is essential to prevent catastrophic climate failure.

Tamara Lorincz highlighted over two trillion dollars annually spent on military operations and resource extraction. Dr. Amara Eniya explained how climate crisis-driven droughts and floods compound national debt, crippling nations struggling to meet basic needs. John D. Liu, representing Commonland, showcased global efforts to restore land and hydrological cycles.

COP discussions on climate change mitigation and adaptation have proven ineffective. Instead, planetary-scale action is crucial for restoring natural ecological function. John D. Liu leads this effort, engaging thousands across over 80 global restoration projects.

Nick Breeze, author of COPOUT, and Liu explore ways to protect Earth’s vital systems. This program, from COP29 in Baku, includes an inspiring clip from "The Flourishing Path" featuring Jane Goodall.

To move beyond current oligarchies and restore environmental protections and social safety nets, we must build a more equitable, partnership-based economy. Dr. Riane Eisler, author of *The Chalice and the Blade* and *The Real Wealth of Nations*, guides us to recognize our role in societal evolution and preserving life on Earth.

Nick Breeze's book, "COPOUT: How Governments Have Failed the People on Climate," offers an insider's account of UN Climate Conferences (COPs) from Paris 2015 to Dubai. He often crossed paths with the late Stuart Scott, founder of this channel.

Despite nearly 30 years of COPs, emissions have surged 60%, CO2 levels reached 421 ppm, and global temperatures averaged 1.64°C last year, exceeding safe limits. This year's COP in Azerbaijan, led by an oil and gas executive, promises emission reductions and renewable energy, but omits nature restoration.

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.

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.

To learn more and take the pledge, visit simpol.org. Businesses can join at theclimatepledge.com. *The Simpol Solution* is available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon. For more information on our planet, visit the FacingFuture Library.

Taking climate scientists like Peter Wadhams and Paul Beckwith seriously at COP would yield vastly different outcomes than COP28's "bandaid" solutions. COP28's deals, focusing on minor fixes like leaky pipes and cow burps, are insufficient for the severe climate crisis. Wealthy nations offer millions where trillions are needed, failing to address the damage they've caused.

The COP process, exemplified by COP28's 100,000 attendees—many representing fossil fuel interests—has failed to enact real change over 28 years. Our team offers commentary on this year's "COP out." For more information, visit the FacingFuture Library at https://facingfuture.earth/library.

Changing weather patterns, with stronger storms and droughts, demand land restoration. We need to free land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2

Changing weather patterns, with stronger storms and droughts, demand land restoration. We need to free land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age has brought mobility at a steep environmental cost. Gas cars are disastrous, leading to ecosystem loss as paved surfaces cover soil and absorb heat; EVs don't solve this land-use issue. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this recipe for disaster.
