Indigenous Peoples face a new wave of extractivism for transition minerals like copper, nickel, cobalt, and lithium, crucial for battery development. These mining projects risk replicating the harms of the fossil fuel economy by threatening Indigenous rights, especially those of Indigenous women, and destroying biodiverse ecosystems. This panel will prioritize Indigenous women’s rights.

Speakers include Galina Angarova (Cultural Survival), Lesley Muñoz (Plurinational Observatory of Andean Salt Flats - OPSAL), Jannie Staffansson (Cultural Survival), Guadalupe García Prado (Observatory of Extractive Industries), and Kate R. Finn (First Peoples Worldwide).

Beaver restoration offers ancient, nature-based solutions to climate disruption, addressing challenges like droughts, floods, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. These vital rodents heal ecosystems by working with nature.

In this episode, "Beaver Believers" Kate Lundquist and Brock Dolman of the Occidental Arts & Ecology Center (OAEC) share their journey. As co-directors of OAEC’s WATER Institute, they lead a global movement to reintroduce beavers, promoting healthy watersheds and climate resilience.

The U.S. faces a critical energy dilemma: immediate fossil fuel needs, exacerbated by global crises, conflict with the urgent scientific imperative to rapidly reduce production to avert climate

The U.S. faces a critical energy dilemma: immediate fossil fuel needs, exacerbated by global crises, conflict with the urgent scientific imperative to rapidly reduce production to avert climate catastrophe. Fossil fuel companies' claims of decarbonization are unsubstantiated, given their history of obstructing climate action.

Climate politics expert Kate Aronoff explores how policymakers must expand their toolkit to manage an orderly decline of the fossil fuel era, fostering a collective stake in our energy future.

The Pathways to Planetary Health initiative at the Garrison Institute hosted an online forum on June 24. Garrison Institute Co-founder Jonathan F.P. Rose joined Kate Raworth, Leonora Grcheva, and Erinch Sahan from Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL) to explore Doughnut Economics. This framework defines the goal of economics as "social and ecological wellbeing rather than growth."

The discussion highlighted its global application. Kate Raworth introduced the concept, followed by Leonora Grcheva's insights on city implementation and Erinch Sahan's perspective on business applications. This insightful forum, reflecting the Garrison Institute's "Timeless Wisdom, Timely Action," offered ideas for improving the quality of life for all.

Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett's *The Spirit Level* demonstrated how less equal societies perform

Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett's *The Spirit Level* demonstrated how less equal societies perform worse across various social measures, including health, education, and wellbeing. This work significantly heightened public awareness of inequality's impacts.

Their subsequent book, *The Inner Level*, argues that societies built on fundamental equality, sharing, and reciprocity foster greater wellbeing. It contrasts these with societies driven by excessive individualism and aggression, offering new perspectives on how we should organize our collective lives.
