The Working Forests & Carbon event took place on June 9-10, featuring a workshop at the Long Lake Conservation Center near Palisade, MN, and a subsequent field tour. For more information, visit: http://www.dovetailinc.org/content/working-forests-carbon

The workshop included presentations from the Climate Action Reserve and the American Carbon Registry on carbon offset standards and forest project requirements. Great River Energy discussed carbon policy from an energy provider's perspective, while the Aitkin County Land Department updated attendees on a Northwoods carbon offset project. The event was organized by the Aitkin County Land Department, The Forest Guild, Northeastern Area - US Forest Service, and Dovetail Partners.

COP discussions on climate change mitigation and adaptation have proven ineffective. Instead, planetary-scale action is crucial for restoring natural ecological function. John D. Liu leads this effort, engaging thousands across over 80 global restoration projects.

Nick Breeze, author of COPOUT, and Liu explore ways to protect Earth’s vital systems. This program, from COP29 in Baku, includes an inspiring clip from "The Flourishing Path" featuring Jane Goodall.

Preserving biodiversity and avoiding climate tipping points necessitate critical changes in land management and food systems, requiring us to work with nature. The Amazon, vital to Earth's system, is losing its carbon sequestration capacity due to logging and cattle ranching. Peatlands also face threats; their delicate hydrological balance is disrupted by drainage (emitting CO2) or excessive wetness (emitting methane), further imperiled by permafrost melt.

This discussion was recorded on November 16, 2024, at COP 29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, hosted by journalist Nick Breeze, with experts from the World Resources Institute, University of Leicester, and University of Cambridge. For more information on climate change, visit the FacingFuture Library.

Nick Breeze's book, "COPOUT: How Governments Have Failed the People on Climate," offers an insider's account of UN Climate Conferences (COPs) from Paris 2015 to Dubai. He often crossed paths with the late Stuart Scott, founder of this channel.

Despite nearly 30 years of COPs, emissions have surged 60%, CO2 levels reached 421 ppm, and global temperatures averaged 1.64°C last year, exceeding safe limits. This year's COP in Azerbaijan, led by an oil and gas executive, promises emission reductions and renewable energy, but omits nature restoration.

This episode, part of a four-part series on community wealth building, explores how communities transform local economies. By harnessing local assets and anchoring capital, they directly invest in their people and place, countering the corporate model of wealth extraction. The full series can be explored here.

Water is vital for life and climate regulation, but intensifying global floods and droughts demand a new understanding of its dynamics. The film "WATER IS LOVE" addresses this critical issue.

It champions restoring hydrological cycles and revitalizing rivers, placing water at the core of ecological restoration. The film showcases autonomous bioregions like Tamera, fostering a new consciousness and human-earth reconnection for a hopeful future.

The ocean, vital for Earth's oxygen, carbon storage, and climate, supports the majority of our planet's life. Yet, the International Seabed Authority is considering opening the deep sea to companies vying to extract millions of tons of minerals like manganese, cobalt, nickel, and lithium. This heavy equipment mining threatens fragile deep-sea ecosystems.

Arlo Hemphill, Lead Ocean Campaigner for Greenpeace USA, exposes how the laws of the sea are being evaded to accommodate these mining interests.

Plastic poses serious health risks, from its production harming communities to its breakdown into ubiquitous microplastics infiltrating our environment and bodies. Over 9 billion tonnes have been produced since 1950, with ocean debris potentially outweighing all fish soon.

Greenpeace's John Hocevar will attend negotiations in Ottawa for a binding Global Plastic Treaty. Join the campaign by signing a letter to President Biden, urging a strong treaty: Greenpeace USA.
