Called "the voice of the resistance" by The New York Times, writer and activist Rebecca Solnit discussed her view that the future hinges on present action to counter institutional inertia and fossil fuel interests. She emphasized moving from climate despair to possibility, drawing from her book *Not Too Late: Changing the Climate Story from Despair to Possibility*.

Solnit was joined by co-editor and climate activist Thelma Young Lutunatabua and native Fijian Fenton Lutunatabua (participating virtually). Together, they called on the audience to embrace indigenous wisdom and new stories to rise to the moment. This event was presented in association with Bioneers 2023 on March 22, 2023.

Hosted by The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum. Join our Email List or BECOME a MEMBER.

While forests have often been viewed as inert resources, Suzanne Simard’s revolutionary research is transforming forest ecology. A Professor of Forestry at the University of British Columbia, Simard’s groundbreaking work reveals the complex, interconnected nature of forests, particularly the below-ground fungal networks that facilitate interplant communication. Her findings echo the wisdom of First Peoples, offering a new paradigm for sustainable living on Earth.

Recent technological advances, notably Project CETI, are enabling us to begin understanding animal communication, starting with sperm whales. This interdisciplinary initiative employs machine learning, robotics, and natural language processing to decipher nonhuman animal communication.

While these technologies offer significant promise for enhancing animal well-being and rights, they also present serious risks of manipulation and exploitation.

To address this, the NYU More-Than-Human Life (MOTH) Program and Project CETI are collaborating to establish ethical and legal guardrails. This conversation features David Gruber and César Rodríguez-Garavito, moderated by Teo Grossman of Bioneers.
