Indigenous communities continue to battle "fortress conservation" efforts that displace them and restrict access to their ancestral lands. This approach often conflicts with their traditional stewardship, despite Indigenous peoples being vital guardians of the Earth.

Though making up just over 6% of the global population, Indigenous peoples steward 25% of the Earth's surface and 40% of intact ecosystems. They protect 80% of the planet's remaining biodiversity, a direct result of their profound relationships with their territories.

Decades of warnings about climate change, fueled by CO2 emissions, highlight a warming atmosphere, melting ice, and collapsing ecosystems. Despite warnings, society's slow response has brought us

Decades of warnings about climate change, fueled by CO2 emissions, highlight a warming atmosphere, melting ice, and collapsing ecosystems. Despite warnings, society's slow response has brought us to a critical juncture. Now, contemporary climate activism, especially by young people, offers hope for the radical systemic changes needed to save humankind.

Jakub Hrbáň, a Slovak coordinator for "Fridays For Future," embodies this hope. After high school, he joined the March 2019 climate strike and completed Sweden's Youth Initiative Program. He now leads "Miznúca Domovina" (Disappearing Homeland), a project merging ecology, education, and passion to spread climate awareness. This talk was given at a TEDx event.

Millions of tons of construction waste annually pollute our environment and contribute to climate change. Mycoremediation, a nature-inspired solution, uses fungi to transform harmful construction

Millions of tons of construction waste annually pollute our environment and contribute to climate change. Mycoremediation, a nature-inspired solution, uses fungi to transform harmful construction and demolition waste into usable materials, mimicking natural decomposition.

Mycocycle, a 2022 Biomimicry Institute Ray of Hope Prize finalist, cultivates fungi to detoxify construction debris and asphalt. Their innovative process converts toxic trash into harmless, reusable materials, moving us closer to building waste-free, sustainable cities.
