Plants are essential for life, yet their critical importance is often overlooked. Globally, nearly 16,000 plant species face extinction, with only 11% assessed. In the U.S. alone, over 900 plants are endangered, and 70 more await protection.

The Center actively works to protect imperiled plants across the country, from deserts to rainforests and swamps. Join our upcoming webinar to learn about our vital efforts to save endangered plants and discover how you can contribute.

The presentation will feature Hawaii Director Maxx Phillips and Senior Scientist Ileene Anderson. For more on Hawaii's plant extinction crisis, watch this Great Big Story video: https://youtu.be/XFAQeyUfiAc

Dr. Katrin Schuhen and her team at Wasser 3.0 (www.wasserdreinull.com) offer a groundbreaking, sustainable approach to remove micropollutants from water. Since 2012, their interdisciplinary expertise has developed cost-effective solutions to eliminate microplastics, pharmaceuticals, and other contaminants.

These flexible methods improve water quality and protect ecosystems globally. A pilot plant in Germany has successfully removed microplastics from urban wastewater since 2019. Dr. Schuhen, with a background in polymer chemistry, is driven by a mission to prevent micropollutants from entering our environment and bodies.

A Dutch company is transforming food typically fed to farmed animals into plant-based meat substitutes. Developed with Wageningen University scientists, vegetarian butcher Jaap Korteweg produces burgers, mince, and kebabs that look, feel, and taste like real meat.

This innovative method uses a fraction of the resources needed for animal farming, significantly reducing space and feed. This creative approach not only offers sustainable food alternatives but also contributes to tackling climate change and protecting our planet.

This initiative is part of the #OurPlanet collaboration with the World Economic Forum, showcasing new solutions for climate action and nature restoration. Stay tuned for more inspirational stories.

Skyelark Ranch, owned and operated by UC Davis graduate Alexis Robertson and her husband Gillies, utilizes rotational sheep grazing. This practice significantly benefits plant growth, drought resistance, and the climate.

The grazing encourages plant growth, which captures atmospheric carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. This carbon is then stored in the soil, promoting healthier ecosystems and reducing atmospheric CO2 levels.

A new NASA study reveals significant global declines in microscopic ocean plant-life, or phytoplankton, which form the base of the marine food chain. This research is the first to analyze long-term phytoplankton community trends using NASA satellite data.

Diatoms, the largest type of phytoplankton, decreased over 1% annually from 1998 to 2012, particularly in the North Pacific, North Indian, and Equatorial Indian oceans. This reduction could impact the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide absorbed and stored in the deep ocean. Dr. Cecile Rousseaux is featured.
