Beaver restoration offers ancient, nature-based solutions to climate disruption, addressing challenges like droughts, floods, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. These vital rodents heal ecosystems by working with nature.

In this episode, "Beaver Believers" Kate Lundquist and Brock Dolman of the Occidental Arts & Ecology Center (OAEC) share their journey. As co-directors of OAEC’s WATER Institute, they lead a global movement to reintroduce beavers, promoting healthy watersheds and climate resilience.

Research reveals how wealth can subtly alter the way we think, feel, and treat others. Discover the surprising truth and its implications for human behavior:

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

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.

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.

The Yale Environmental Sustainability Summit featured two key plenary panels. The first, "Flowing Capital to a Sustainable Future," explored impact investing with Yale alumni. Panelists included Tom Hodgman (NatureVest), Jeff Possick (MissionPoint Partners), Shelby Semmes (Intervale Advisors), and Adam Wolfensohn (Encourage Capital), moderated by Terry Kellogg (Helios Capital Ventures).

The second plenary, "Moving Ahead: Change Making, Sound Science, and the Rule of Law," discussed future directions. Speakers were Paul Anastas (Yale), Tom McHenry (Vermont Law School), and William K. Reilly (World Wildlife Fund; former EPA Administrator). Ingrid C. Burke, Dean of F&ES, served as moderator.
