The "Doomsday Clock" stands at three minutes to midnight, reflecting the climate crisis as a threat to humanity as serious as nuclear weapons. While world leaders have largely failed to act, some, like Monaca, Pennsylvania's Borough Manager Mario Leone, Jr., are modeling solutions. Through Mr. Leone's energy-saving strategies, Monaca has reduced utility costs by 25 percent.

NASA scientists utilized 30 years of Landsat satellite data to track vegetation changes across 4 million square miles of Alaska and Canada. Their findings reveal a significant "greening" trend, with 30% of the area showing increased vegetation, while only 3% experienced "browning."

This pioneering study, the first to provide continent-scale detail alongside local information, underscores the impact of rapid Arctic warming. Elevated temperatures lead to extended growing seasons and altered soils, transforming tundras into shrublands. Future research will investigate local factors influencing these greening patterns and explore forested regions.

Growing concern about beef's environmental impact faces political backlash, driving new climate commitments. Food and climate experts will discuss the climate science of beef, exploring effective solutions, regenerative practices, and emission reduction strategies. They will also examine carbon markets, consumer awareness, and how cultural factors influence the debate.

Renowned experts Dr. Jonathan Foley (Project Drawdown), Dr. Matthew Hayek (NYU), and Dr. Silvia Secchi (University of Iowa) will lead this discussion. Sign up for our Food X e-newsletter: https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/population_and_sustainability/food-x/

“Dodging Bullets—Stories from Survivors of Historical Trauma” is a new film exploring the profound impact of generational oppression and trauma on Native Americans. It examines the loss and remarkable resilience of Indigenous communities.

The film reveals how historical trauma, stemming from first contact with Europeans, contributes to disproportionately high health and social issues among Indigenous populations. It features cross-generational perspectives from Native people, researchers, and politicians, highlighting the unique challenges resilient communities continue to face.

Watch “Dodging Bullets” on AppleTV and Prime Video.

"Health as a Social Movement" is a three-year NHS England-funded program. It aims to understand and support social movements in health and care, working with New Care Model vanguards and national partners (The RSA, New Economics Foundation, Nesta). The program develops and spreads effective ways to mobilize people, improving health and care outcomes with a positive return on investment.

The animation, "More Than a Pill," sponsored through the RSA Student Design Awards, clarifies and illuminates the ideas behind creating a social movement for health. It was voiced by Nathalie Spencer, with thanks to Matthew Stidwill.

"Why Climate Action Gets Stuck and What to do About it" explores why climate initiatives often stall or backtrack despite initial progress. Based on a five-year research project, Professor Matthew Hoffmann explains these obstacles and proposes strategies for transformative change to address the climate emergency.

Matthew Hoffmann is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto, Scarborough, and Co-Director of the Environmental Governance Lab. His research focuses on global governance, climate change politics, and international relations. Author of several books, including *Climate Governance at the Crossroads*, he is currently researching Political Pathways to Decarbonization. This talk was presented at a TEDx event.
