Boudreaux, President & CEO, discusses Oberon Fuels' mission to decarbonize the fuel and energy sectors. The company aims to slash the environmental impact of fuels, particularly in hard-to-abate areas like heavy-duty transportation and agriculture.

Oberon achieves this through renewable dimethyl ether (rDME). Their low or carbon-negative rDME fuel can reduce LPG's carbon intensity by up to 60% when blended, potentially cutting global CO2 by 750 million metric tons annually. rDME also offers a compelling approach for transporting hydrogen for its fast-growing applications.

Plastic poses serious health risks, from its production harming communities to its breakdown into ubiquitous microplastics infiltrating our environment and bodies. Over 9 billion tonnes have been produced since 1950, with ocean debris potentially outweighing all fish soon.

Greenpeace's John Hocevar will attend negotiations in Ottawa for a binding Global Plastic Treaty. Join the campaign by signing a letter to President Biden, urging a strong treaty: Greenpeace USA.

In Midnight in Washington: How We Almost Lost Our Democracy and Still Could, Congressman Adam Schiff, who led President Trump's first impeachment, delivers a vital inside account of American democracy's darkest hour. Schiff argues the greatest threat comes from within, as Trump's presidency weakened institutions and fueled the dangerous appeal of authoritarianism, a peril he tracks through his own political journey.

Schiff discussed these insights and warned of authoritarianism's lasting potency during an October 14, 2021 event, in conversation with Marisa Lagos, KQED (@mlagos). This discussion was hosted by The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest public affairs forum. Explore more content: YouTube, Events, Watch & Listen, Twitter.

Environmental justice advocates, including The Climate Reality Project, emphasize the urgent needs of communities of color. Greenaction for Health and Environmental Justice's "We Can't Breathe" campaign addresses severe environmental injustice in San Francisco's Bayview Hunters Point (BVHP), a low-income community. Residents suffer high rates of asthma and cancer due to radioactive and toxic contamination at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard Superfund site.

BVHP, one of San Francisco's lowest-lying areas, faces extreme vulnerability to rising sea levels, threatening to flood hazardous waste. Despite these risks, luxury homes are being built near, and thousands more planned for, the contaminated Shipyard Superfund Site, amidst allegations of cleanup fraud. A protest will highlight these critical concerns.
