Join host Jeff Corwin on an adventure across the Great Plains, exploring the vital connection between species. He assists Native American tribes in re-establishing bison herds, a keystone species that once shaped the ecosystem. Historically, bison were nearly wiped out by western expansion, devastating both the plains and tribal cultures that depended on them.

The loss of bison had ripple effects, impacting predators, scavengers, and species like black-footed ferrets. Conservationists, led by the Intertribal Buffalo Council, are working to restore at least ten large herds. This effort not only revitalizes the environment but also helps Native American communities reconnect with their cultural heritage, ensuring the survival of the Great Plains ecosystem.

On November 10, 2021, at COP26 in Glasgow, the University of Cambridge’s Aviation Impact Accelerator (AIA) hosted a fireside chat titled 'Accelerating Aviation to Climate Neutrality.' Prof. Rob Miller, Eliot Whittington, and John Holland-Kaye discussed the opportunities and challenges for climate-neutral aviation, stressing a whole-system approach.

The event included a preview of the AIA simulator prototype, designed to guide innovation, investment, and policy. The AIA aims to accelerate the transition to climate-neutral aviation by building an interactive, open-source, whole-system simulator. This tool will facilitate industry alignment and decision-maker engagement, mapping pathways to achieve climate neutrality.

Join us for an exclusive talk with journalist and political strategist Jasmyne Cannick. Following wealthy socialite Ed Buck's conviction for crimes including the deaths of Gemmel Moore and Timothy Dean, Cannick stated, "Ed Buck is going to pay for the crimes he committed...to an entire community of Black men here." Her persistence was crucial in bringing this sordid story to light.

Cannick founded Justice for Gemmel and All of Ed Buck’s Victims, extending her advocacy beyond journalism. She co-founded My Hood Votes and the National Black Justice Coalition, the nation's largest Black LGBTQ civil rights organization. This event is presented by The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, established in 1903.
