Climate change pioneers John Elkington, Bjorn Stigson, Doug Miller, and David Suzuki anticipate worsening conditions before improvement. They fear significant progress remains elusive.

Millionaire Doug Tompkins, founder of Esprit, purchased a vast rainforest in Southern Chile to create Pumalin Park, a significant biodiversity reserve. However, his philanthropy faces suspicion from many Chileans.

Critics, including conservative politician Jaime Orpis, view Tompkins' 100km reserve as a national security threat, linking the Argentine border to central Chile. His anti-development stance also irritates a nation seeking economic growth. Despite calls for him to leave, Tompkins remains committed to protecting the park until the Chilean government assumes its preservation.
