Join the Commonwealth Club on October 18, 2021, for a critical discussion on the COVID-19 pandemic. As the world seeks to end this public health crisis, businesses are navigating mandates and playing a vital role in community safety and vaccination efforts.

A panel of business and healthcare leaders, generously supported by Kaiser Permanente, will explore how the private sector can collaborate to combat the pandemic and foster economic recovery. They will discuss effective strategies and responses to mandates.

The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's largest public affairs forum, hosts this event. For more information, upcoming events, and to support our mission, visit commonwealthclub.org.

Nature's Genius, a Bioneers podcast, explores how nature's wisdom offers solutions for human civilization and living systems. It posits an "Age of Nature," urging a radical shift in our relationship with the natural world for healing ourselves and the planet.

The series blends Indigenous wisdom and modern science, revealing interconnectedness and time-tested principles from 3.8 billion years of evolution that allow living systems to flourish.

It features scientists, ecologists, Indigenous practitioners, and authors like Brett KenCairn (naturebasedclimate.solutions) and Toby Kiers (spun.earth). They explore nature's inherent intelligence to model sustainable human organization.

Join CCL Education & Engagement Director Brett Cease and CCL Michigan Liaisons Coordinator Lisa DelBuono, MD, for a training on Climate Interactive's En-ROADS climate policy simulator, built with MIT Sloan. This session will review the tool's background, details, and how to host your own simulation events.

Lisa demonstrates sample presentations exploring carbon pricing (e.g., Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act) and other climate strategies. Examples for progressive (video) and conservative (video) audiences highlight impacts on energy, land use, and agriculture.

Access presentation slides (cclusa.org/enroads-update), the En-ROADS Simulator (en-roads.org), and further training (learn.climateinteractive.org). Share your experiences on CCL Community’s Forums (community.citizensclimate.org/forums).

Climate change demands urgent, integrated action: reducing greenhouse gas pollution, rapidly scaling carbon drawdown, and building societal resilience. These efforts must prioritize equity.

Climate change demands urgent, integrated action: reducing greenhouse gas pollution, rapidly scaling carbon drawdown, and building societal resilience. These efforts must prioritize equity. Fortunately, "whole problem" approaches are emerging globally, offering effective pathways forward through cross-sector collaboration.

This discussion, moderated by Kerry Fugett, featured leaders like Trathen Heckman, Lil Milagro Henriquez, and Brett KenCairn, who are outlining revolutionary blueprints. For more from the Bioneers 2020 Conference, visit https://bioneers.org/2020talks/.
