How are the leaders of some of the nation's biggest environmental organizations responding to a year of race and health crises? Groups such as the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), 350.org

How are the leaders of some of the nation's biggest environmental organizations responding to a year of race and health crises? Groups such as the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), 350.org and Greenpeace helped move climate onto the presidential agenda last year, pushing Joe Biden and other Democrats’ stances on bold action. Now, organizers and advocates are backing recovery plans that bolster clean energy jobs, help strengthen communities and dismantle systems that exploit people and the planet. How enthusiastic are they about Joe Biden’s $2 trillion climate plan? Can activism finally bring America’s political ambitions in line with climate science? Join us for a conversation on the state of our climate with Annie Leonard, executive director of Greenpeace, Gina McCarthy, CEO of the NRDC, and Tamara Toles O'Laughlin, North America director of 350.org.

Humans have made a profound impact on the planet, so much so that we have now entered a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. Ivo Kennedy implores viewers to explore what role urban agriculture can play in society and in our every individual’s life. From large-scale hydroponic systems to grassroots community gardening, Ivo investigates the routes we can take that could reshape our legacy to be about a people that reinvented nature, reinvented agriculture, and learned to appreciate and nurture nature, even in cities. Amid a global environmental crisis, Ivo Kennedy reflects on his seemingly incompatible love for both the natural world and the vibrant character of city life. A graduate student studying public health, he considers how urban agriculture can turn gray skylines green and help us reach environmental sustainability in energy-demanding cityscapes.
