Rafael Gallo's presentation, "Environmental Sustainability and Saving Resources," was filmed by Barry Heidt of sustainabletv (editing by Tom Hopkins of Sustainable Today) at TIES' 2010 ESTC event in Portland, Oregon.

A passionate whitewater paddler, Gallo founded a leading rafting company in Costa Rica. He has introduced thousands to the sport, successfully fought to save the Pacuare River from dam threats, and protects 2000 acres of rainforest. His eco-lodge has also planted nearly 14,000 native trees as part of the UN's "Plant for the Planet" campaign. For more on community development, visit Eltigredepacuare.com.

New research highlights how decades of U.S. housing policy have created urban environments where prosperous, white neighborhoods enjoy ample tree shade, while low-income communities of color lack green spaces. National Geographic writer Alejandra Borunda explores how activists are working to make Los Angeles greener and healthier for everyone, emphasizing that solutions extend beyond simply planting more trees.

In 2022, aspiring marine biologist Asa Miller, with deep roots in Cuba, learned about coral restoration efforts in the country's Matanzas Province. Recognizing that developing nations like Cuba disproportionately suffer from global coral loss and often lack resources, Miller launched `¡Viva el Vivero!` (Long Live the Nursery!) in 2023. This international campaign to restore Cuba's stunning coral reefs has since won multiple conservation awards.

During visits to Matanzas, 17-year-old Miller interviewed divers and scientists, analyzed coral nursery data, and mapped restoration sites. Back in New York, he founded a high school marine biology club to raise funds for planting coral fragments. Miller also produced an award-winning documentary showcasing his team's restoration methods, serving as a primer for other developing countries.
