Once nearly extinct, wolves have returned to states like California, Oregon, Washington, and the Southwest. However, their future remains uncertain, standing at a critical crossroads.

The presentation features Amaroq Weiss, a senior West Coast wolf advocate, and Michael Robinson, a senior conservation advocate. Attendees will gain valuable insights and be inspired to contribute to conservation efforts.

A crisis is unfolding off the U.S. West Coast as migrating whales become entangled in Dungeness crab fishing gear. Once entangled, whales drag heavy traps and lines for weeks or months, enduring severe wounds.

These entanglements cause deep cuts, infection, and disease, making it difficult for whales to swim, feed, and breathe. This often leads to their death. Join Oceana to help protect whales from these deadly entanglements off California, Oregon, and Washington.

In Midnight in Washington: How We Almost Lost Our Democracy and Still Could, Congressman Adam Schiff, who led President Trump's first impeachment, delivers a vital inside account of American democracy's darkest hour. Schiff argues the greatest threat comes from within, as Trump's presidency weakened institutions and fueled the dangerous appeal of authoritarianism, a peril he tracks through his own political journey.

Schiff discussed these insights and warned of authoritarianism's lasting potency during an October 14, 2021 event, in conversation with Marisa Lagos, KQED (@mlagos). This discussion was hosted by The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest public affairs forum. Explore more content: YouTube, Events, Watch & Listen, Twitter.

Southern Resident Orcas, iconic to the Pacific Northwest and frequenting Washington's Salish Sea, face a critical struggle for survival.

This endangered population made national headlines this summer after a newborn calf died, with its mother carrying the body for 17 days in apparent grief. A month later, a young female disappeared and is now presumed dead, further reducing the population to a mere 74 whales.
