Changing weather patterns, with stronger storms and droughts, demand land restoration. We need to free land to absorb flooding, recover hydrology, and enhance natural systems for CO2 sequestration.

The automotive age has brought mobility at a steep environmental cost. Gas cars are disastrous, leading to ecosystem loss as paved surfaces cover soil and absorb heat; EVs don't solve this land-use issue. Additionally, three-quarters of arable land converted to animal agriculture compounds this recipe for disaster.

America faces undeniable economic inequality. Bill's essay highlights extreme wealth and poverty, exemplified by California's Silicon Valley. There, tech giants like Facebook, Google, and Apple create millionaires, while the region's homeless population has surged 20% in two years, living in tent cities near these companies.

Sristi Kamal, Oregon Representative for Defenders of Wildlife, testified for House Bill 2548, which proposes a study to fund wildlife crossings and safe passage structures on Oregon highways. The goal is to reduce collisions and protect ecosystems.

Kamal emphasized the severe economic and ecological impacts of wildlife collisions, including property damage, human injury, and animal loss. Collisions hinder species' movement, food access, and genetic diversity. A neighboring state estimated $2.5 million in annual collision costs on just 12.5 miles of highway. She argued the study is crucial to finding solutions, demonstrating that passage benefits will far outweigh initial investment, preventing further losses. Kamal urged continued engagement in the Oregon Legislative session to support better wildlife policies.

Join a virtual discussion with "Framers" co-authors Kenneth Cukier, Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, and Francis de Véricourt. Their book explores "framing"—the unique human ability to create mental models for understanding complex global challenges like pandemics, AI, and climate change. Framing helps us see patterns and make decisions, a vital skill in an era of algorithms and societal upheaval. George Hammond will moderate.
