Noticing a gap between student environmental concern and action at Wesleyan, Kate Weiner founded LOAM in 2014. Inspired by an internship, her student-run environmental arts collective uses a literary magazine and gardening program to engage students in sustainability.

LOAM's free campus magazine features student environmental art and writing. Its "Wild Walls" program involves students building and maintaining low-cost wall gardens. The collective has successfully produced multiple issues and installations, receiving widespread positive feedback.

Post-graduation, Weiner continues LOAM's mission, fostering off-campus sustainability exploration. She and her peers also hosted a national youth essay contest and launched a new online platform.

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.

Beavers offer ancient, nature-based solutions to climate disruption, addressing challenges like droughts, floods, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. This episode of Bioneers' "Nature's Genius"

Beavers offer ancient, nature-based solutions to climate disruption, addressing challenges like droughts, floods, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. This episode of Bioneers' "Nature's Genius" podcast explores how these "rodent relatives" can heal nature by working with it.

Kate Lundquist and Brock Dolman of the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center share their journey as "Beaver Believers." They are part of a passionate global movement to restore beavers, demonstrating how these animals help balance human civilization with living systems.

Gabriel Miller, 15, presents research indicating that increased climate change information can lead to public inaction rather than action. His 2019 study suggests that a saturated public has become overwhelmed over the past decade.

An 11th-grade Mock Trial Team leader, Miller conducts social science research for community organizations. He shared these findings in a TEDx talk, an independently organized event following the TED conference format. Learn more about TEDx events here.

Henry Miller proposes two essential guidelines for local climate change adaptation. First, communities must understand their local hydrographic system (watershed) and its integration with ecological, economic, social, and political subsystems to develop effective planning. Second, clear communication with stakeholders is crucial for education, motivation, and short-term decision-making.

With over two decades of experience in the Mexican countryside, Miller has worked directly with rural and indigenous populations, bridging cultures and organizations to foster community development and sustainable resource management. He directs El Maíz Más Pequeño, a non-profit promoting adaptive governance and ecological territorial management in Mexico. This talk was given at a TEDx event.
