Mansfield Frazier, now in his third year with the Vineyards at Chateau Hough, has secured angel funding for his latest urban agriculture venture: the BioCellar at Chateau Hough.

This project envisions transforming Cleveland's 15,000 abandoned homes. Irreparable structures will be removed, and greenhouses built over their basements, creating "BioCellars" to cultivate high-value mushrooms ($12/pound). This innovative approach aims to grow crops, create jobs, and repurpose land, delivering significant economic, social, and environmental benefits.

"The End of the Line" is a powerful film exposing the critical issue of overfishing. Advanced technology threatens entire wild fish species, with key food stocks predicted to collapse by 2050.

The film identifies those responsible, including celebrity chefs, and outlines solutions. More than just a documentary, it's a campaign advocating for sustainable fish consumption, marine protected areas for ocean recovery, and a new ethic of responsible fishing.

On March 13, WECAN and the Indigenous Women's Treaty Alliance petitioned the Army Corps of Engineers in Washington D.C. They demanded a robust environmental review of the proposed Line 5 crude oil pipeline reroute.

Enbridge's Line 5 operates illegally, threatening sacred ecosystems, clean water, treaty territories, and the global climate. Despite opposition, Enbridge plans a reroute and expansion. Activists insist Line 5 must be shut down and decommissioned, not merely rerouted.

The Indigenous Women's Treaty Alliance, supported by WECAN, Sierra Club, and community allies, delivered the petition. WECAN has facilitated the Alliance, comprising Great Lakes Indigenous women leaders, since 2022.

Enbridge's Line 5 pipeline, operating 20 years beyond its engineered lifespan, threatens 20% of the world's surface freshwater in the Great Lakes, along with sacred ecosystems, drinking water, and

Enbridge's Line 5 pipeline, operating 20 years beyond its engineered lifespan, threatens 20% of the world's surface freshwater in the Great Lakes, along with sacred ecosystems, drinking water, and treaty territories. Indigenous women, tribal leaders, and allies are demanding its immediate shutdown and decommissioning.

Despite strong opposition, Enbridge proposes expanding and re-routing Line 5. This new route would devastate hundreds of waterways, including those vital to the Bad River Reservation, Lake Superior, and the Straits of Mackinac. It is imperative to stop this expansion and all fossil fuel projects now.

The Magnuson-Stevens Act, our vital fisheries management law, faces a significant threat. Certain members of Congress seek changes that could lead to the overexploitation of our oceans for short-term gain.

Urge lawmakers to protect and uphold the Magnuson-Stevens Act.
