SME Climate Hub: Supporting SMEs to decarbonise Wednesday 3 November COP26, WMB Business Pavilion, Blue Zone, SEC, Glasgow Globally, SMEs account for over 90% of businesses. Climate action by SMEs is therefore essential if we are to achieve our global goal of an inclusive net zero economy, consistent with the ambition of the Race to Zero. This session explored some of the challenges and opportunities for engaging SMEs, highlighting action by government, finance and businesses, as well as featuring SMEs who have already made the SME Climate Commitment. The session also introduced the SME Climate Hub tool being launched by BSR and CISL that will provide a free online training course for global SMEs in decarbonisation. Speakers: Andrew Griffith MEP, UK Net Zero Business Champion, BEIS Giulio Berruti, Director, BSR Peter Simpson, CEO, Anglian Water Oliver Holbourn, Head of Strategy, NatWest Gonzalo

Join host Jeff Corwin on an epic adventure to the stunning coast of California to connect with the giants of the sea: elephant seals. Jeff works alongside conservationists fighting to protect elephant seal habitats, collects important data on elephant seal migration, and helps ensure the next generation of pups are thriving. Jeff learns about the powerful connection between elephant seal mothers and babies and discovers new information about their time in the open ocean. Later, Jeff works to bring three rescued sea lions back to their homes in the wild. Video Transcript: Jeff Corwin: Today, we're on the coast of the Pacific ocean, near Los Angeles, California, helping conservationists save pinnipeds. Pinnipeds are the group of thin footed aquatic mammals that include seals, sea lions, fur seals, and walruses. Unfortunately, climate change, over fishing, and habitat laws have led to their decline. And other threats like fishing gear entanglements and ingesting plastic are on the rise. Thankfully, places like the Marine Mammal Care Center and organizations like Defenders of Wildlife are fighting to protect and rescue pinnipeds in trouble. This devoted team has given over 8,000 animals, a second chance at survival by providing critical medical treatment. I'm meeting up with hospital director, Dr. Lauren Palmer and Andy Johnson from Defenders of Wildlife. Jeff Corwin: So we have these four characters right here. These are California sea lion pups. Why are they here? What happened? Dr. Lauren Palmer: Well, these animals came in as malnourished pups a couple of months ago. One of these animals consumed this plastic bag. Fortunately, it didn't cause an obstruction. Jeff Corwin: Andy, plastics are a big obstacle to the survival of many animals, including sea lions. Andrew Johnson: They are. I mean, there's so much plastic in the ocean. And when these animals come across it, some of these animals might be starving. They'll ingest it. When these plastics are out there, they degrade in the ocean. The microplastics get into the food of the animal. So even if they don't ingest a bag, they're ingesting fish that has plastic in it. Jeff Corwin: This is a completely solvable problem, isn't it? Andrew Johnson: It's solvable, but we have to reduce our use of plastics, but it's a huge problem that it'll take a long time to fix. Jeff Corwin: But Andy, plastic trash is just one part of the challenge, isn't it? Andrew Johnson: Probably the biggest problem is climate change, so the warming of the oceans changes where the food that these animals need to survive goes. They have to travel farther to find it. And sometimes they starve. And that's why a lot of these animals are here. Jeff Corwin: But the good news, these four rambunctious, little pups were rescued. They're looking like they're ready to go. It's promising that freedom awaits, but we've got to do a little bit of an assessment. Dr. Lauren Palmer: We need to tag them and weigh them, get them out the door. Jeff Corwin: Andy I assist Dr. Palmer hurting these California sea line pumps into a squeeze box. This enclosure keeps the sea line stable and safe without having to anesthetize them. These pups get a quick weight before they're each given a flipper tag. Andrew Johnson: So with sea otters, we use a lot of different types of tags to identify the animal. What's the purpose of these tags with the sea lines? Dr. Lauren Palmer: Well, these tags provide a visual identification. And if the animal is sighted again at another location, then we can keep track of that. We know how far the animal has gone and went. Gives us an idea how well they do Jeff Corwin: These pups are looking healthy. Now it's time for the ultimate payoff. These four pups are going home. Jeff Corwin: Dr. Palmer, this moment right now, what we're about to do, this is what it's all about, isn't it? Dr. Lauren Palmer: It really is. It's a culmination of all the work we do. It's a culmination of the rescue, the rehabilitation, getting the animal better and returning them to their natural home. Jeff Corwin: So Andy, for you, your whole career has been about the conservation of marine mammals. What's this moment mean for you? Andrew Johnson: It's really important to provide actual care for these guys and get them back in the wild. They're extremely important to their ecosystem in the wild. They tell us a lot about that system and how healthy it is. We spend a lot of time doing science, doing all sorts of things, but these opportunities don't come along too often where we can help animals out, get them back in the wild. That's a really good story. Jeff Corwin: It never gets old to see creatures that were on the brink of survival, get a second chance. There ain't no going back there, buddy. Go on. Dr. Lauren Palmer: We're going to go... There you go. There you go. We've hit our character limit. Leave a comment for the rest of the transcript.

Episode drops here October 23rd: https://ccl.podbean.com/e/ccr-ep-53-andrew-stuhl-unearths-valuable-lessons-from-a-1972-flood Andrew Stuhl, an associate professor of environmental studies and sciences at Bucknell University, has been interviewing residents from Pennsylvania’s Susquehanna River Valley about what they remember about 1972. He keeps hearing about the powerful smell of flood mud. This was the pungent odor throughout the Susquehanna Valley after Hurricane Agnes brought historic rainfalls and a massive flood which upended lives and reshaped towns and waterways. “It reminds me of the connection between smell and memory, and how quickly a memory can come back to you if you smell something in the present day,” Andrew tells podcast host, Peterson Toscano. "I like to think about that as a metaphor for the importance of history and the importance of moments like Hurricane Agnes. They’re always with us, and sometimes they don’t come to our immediate senses, but they can be triggered, and they can be brought up really quickly. I like to believe in the power of memory and history, to mine those experiences, to reflect on them, and recognize and regard them, so we that can walk today in the difficult moments, and get through them.” Andrew talks about his community-based research, the Agnes Flood Project. You will learn why this one storm is still so important, not just for the region, but for the entire country. Lessons drawn from 1972 and the resiliency modeled by local residents during and after the storm will help us in coping and caring for each other during the Coronavirus Pandemic and with the growing risks of climate change. If you or someone you know have Hurricane Agnes stories to share for the Agnes Flood project, contact Andrew Stuhl and the team. They are also looking for pictures from the hurricane and its aftermath. Email [email protected]. This story was made possible through a collaboration with Susquehanna Life Out Loud podcast.

The Art House How does an artist decide to do the work she does? How does that work evolve overtime? What impact does it have on the audience and how can an artist deepen that impact? During a recent conversation with dancer and choreographer, Lynn Neuman, Peterson Toscano encountered an artist with boundless curiosity. This curiosity drives her work. As director of Artichoke Dance Company, Lynn recognizes the vital role art plays in addressing issues like climate change. Entertaining and Educating not enough though for Lynn and her company, though. They always want to do more to get people to act. Through community engagement and direct outreach to lawmakers, they are training community members how to change legislation. And in this time of the Coronavirus pandemic Lynn Neuman and Artichoke Dance Company have been adjusting and adapting once again.
