Universities often teach subjects in isolation. Imagine the effort Fiona Charnley of Exeter University put into developing a cross-campus MSc on the circular economy. Similarly, consider the challenge Chris Grantham, a lead designer at IDEO, faced in convincing colleagues about a new, circular approach to product design.

Charnley and Grantham will share how they achieved these remarkable changes. They will discuss who they needed to persuade and their strategies. Learn valuable lessons from those who have successfully driven institutional change.

The environmental impact of beef production, from emissions to land use, is a critical concern, with solutions like regenerative grazing and grass-fed beef under debate. However, defining truly sustainable beef, especially given high U.S. consumption and its ecological implications, remains complex.

Experts Tara Garnett (University of Oxford, Table), Nicholas Carter (ecologist, PlantBasedData.org), and Chris Bugbee (Center for Biological Diversity) will explore these challenges. They will discuss food systems, wildlife interaction, and land stewardship. Discover more at GrazingFacts.com and join our webinar on April 7 at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern.

"Active Hope," by Joanna Macy and Chris Johnstone, challenges feel-good denial, cynical disengagement, and baseless optimism. Macy emphasizes that there are no comforting certainties or guarantees for safeguarding civilization or conscious life. We may be attending a dying world or birthing a new evolution, but the book stresses the imperative to act on issues we care about.

Inspired by "Active Hope," Cynthia Papermaster and Harvey Wasserman organized an evening of multi-issue presentations on January 10, 2016, at the Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian Universalists.
