In an interview with Jungle Bird, Rebecca Moore, a computer scientist and software professional at Google, discussed her impactful work. She famously used Google Earth to halt the logging of over a thousand acres of redwoods in her Santa Cruz Mountain community.

Moore also initiated and leads the development of Google Earth Engine, a new technology platform supporting global-scale data-mining of satellite imagery for societal benefit. She holds a bachelor's degree in AI from Brown University, a master's from Stanford, and is on leave from a Stanford Ph.D. program. This interview was published on Sep 16, 2014.

Father Charles Moore (1927-2007) was a spiritual teacher, historian, and scholar. A Stanford Law graduate, he served as Santa Cruz County District Attorney in 1954. He later became a Roman Catholic priest in 1964, holding degrees in philosophy and theology from Catholic University.

Known as "Father Charlie," he studied many languages, including Native American. His teachings blended wisdom from Buddhist, Jewish, Hindu, Hawaiian, Celtic, and Native American spiritualities, and he particularly enjoyed working with the Esselen people of Monterey County.

The Center for Biological Diversity advocates for green energy that respects biodiversity and Indigenous cultures. In February 2024, we took significant action in Arizona. We filed an injunction with the Tohono O'odham Nation and San Carlos Apache Tribe to stop wind-power transmission lines damaging sacred sites and the fragile San Pedro River.

We also achieved a major victory with Navajo allies against proposed Black Mesa hydropower projects. These projects threatened aquifers, prehistoric sites, and Mexican spotted owl habitat. This win establishes a new nationwide policy granting Tribes veto power over permits targeting their land. More on this victory: insideclimatenews.org.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a Tucson-based nonprofit, advocates for green energy that respects biodiversity and Indigenous cultures. February 2024 brought key victories in Arizona. An injunction was filed with the Tohono O’odham Nation and San Carlos Apache Tribe to halt wind-power transmission lines damaging sacred sites and the San Pedro River. More: Twitter, ENR.

A significant win with Navajo allies, backed by 7,000 supporters, stopped Black Mesa hydropower projects threatening aquifers, prehistoric sites, and wildlife. This established a nationwide policy granting Tribes veto power over permits on their land. Details: Inside Climate News. As the Center's Russ McSpadden noted, "industrial energy plans are just greenwashing" without community consent.

Dr. Jonathan Kolby, long fascinated by reptiles and amphibians, is dedicated to preventing their extinction in Honduras. A global chytrid fungus outbreak severely threatens frog populations, especially in cloud forests like Cusuco National Park.

Kolby founded the Honduras Amphibian Conservation and Rescue Center to treat sick frogs from Cusuco, preparing them for reintroduction. His mission also includes sharing Honduras' incredible biodiversity and fostering greater involvement of local students in conservation.
