Join Jeff Corwin as he explores climate change impacts, from California's drought-stricken Sierra Nevada and the Caldor Fire's aftermath, where he meets firefighters, to Washington State. There, he highlights conservation efforts for the resourceful American beaver and the endangered Pygmy rabbit.

In Washington, Corwin joins the Tulalip Beaver Project, which humanely relocates beavers from conflict areas. Beavers are vital ecosystem engineers, building dams that increase water storage, filter pollutants, promote biodiversity, and create crucial salmon habitat. Nearly hunted to extinction, these resilient animals are now recovering, with the Tulalip Tribal Community leading successful wildlife management and research efforts.

At Talks at Google, Peter Kohler (The Plastic Tide) and Dr. Stefan Leutenegger (Imperial College London) discuss the escalating ocean plastic crisis. They highlight how plastic threatens a vital $5 trillion economic resource and humanity's life support.

The Plastic Tide initiative quantifies this problem using drone imagery and machine learning. Their work involves a vast drone imagery database and a deep-learning algorithm for plastic detection and geo-referenced mapping.

The speakers will present early results, related research, and future strategies to limit ocean plastic. Learn more about their efforts at The Plastic Tide.

"Corazón Salado" by Patagonia Films follows activist Ramón Navarro as he joins the Kawésqar, an Indigenous community in Chilean Patagonia, to protect their ancestral waters. The encroaching salmon industry pollutes and destroys the delicate ecosystem, forcing the Kawésqar to struggle for food.

Navarro connects with Leticia Caro and her father, Don Reinaldo, a traditional fisherman, to expose the salmon farms' damaging effects. Together, united by their love for the sea, they advocate for establishing a marine protected area within Kawésqar National Park.
