Powered by Restream https://restream.io/ Design has the power to trigger systemic change, achievable through individual, business and community levels. Join us for this episode as we hear from Malin Nordin, the Head of Circular Business Development at Inter IKEA Group, on the ability of large organisations to scale up the circular economy through designing affordable furniture. This will include a dive into how the circular economy can shift the perception that ‘affordable’ means cheap and poorly made, to one that gives rise to quality design. We will also hear from Emily Pilloton, founder of Girls Garage. Emily promotes design with inclusivity, encouraging economic development for all with emphasis on the importance of exercising voice and power, bringing communities together.

Thalia's talk focuses on how individuals can optimise the impact of their actions with regard to the climate crisis, by not only changing their behaviour, but by exploring their wider connections and influence. Thalia is a big picture thinker and the picture for the planet, our life support system, is not good. After a career in community development, teaching and behaviour change in private, public and third sectors, she set up Thalia Carr Coaching, to help mid-career sustainability professionals to rediscover confidence, clarity and agency to increase their impact and build a better world. Alongside coaching, Thalia facilitates open spaces where groups and networks can speak and share openly to come to good decisions. One such network is the Oxford Women in Sustainability group, part of an international network helping women to flourish in their sustainable careers. Thalia is the Oxford Hub Lead. What motivates Thalia is deep concern for the environment. She sees her part as supporting and enabling the people working to protect and restore our planet, as well as informing and inspiring others to understand the situation as it is and to join together to bring about radical change. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Join host Jeff Corwin as he connects with a collection of amazing mammals that face difficult conservation challenges. First, Jeff travels into the remote forests of New England to help care for a rowdy group of orphaned baby black bears. Jeff learns about bear conservation and discovers the unique and friendly behaviors bear cubs have towards each other. Later, Jeff travels to Florida to meet orphaned baby manatees. Jeff learns about the threats to manatee habitat and what biologists are doing to save them. Finally, Jeff assists veterinarians to help two adorable opossums heal from their wounds and return to the forest. Video Transcript: Jeff Corwin: Today on the Wildlife Nation, we're connecting with some of the most diverse mammals in North America, from the shores of Alaska to the waterways of Florida and the forests of New England. We'll meet the women and men on the mission to protect and save America's most amazing mammals. Jeff Corwin: "Marlow please get off the cameraman." Jeff Corwin: I'm Jeff Corwin. And I've teamed up with Defenders of Wildlife to celebrate the awesome creatures of North America and the dedicated conservationists working to protect them. And you're invited to join the adventure. This is Wildlife Nation.

How do we ensure that racism is addressed in health care at all levels, including influencing systemic change and implementing accountability measures? Setting the Foundation for Good Relations in Our Homeland was a webinar held on January 11th, 2021.

Subscribe to The Well on YouTube ► https://bit.ly/thewell-youtube Watch Albert-László Barabási’s next interview ► https://youtu.be/E1eo80fFblM Our world is filled with an abundance of data. Albert-László Barabási, a network scientist, believes that understanding the underlying structure and relationships of complex systems is crucial. Barabási’s research has challenged the notion of random connections and led to the discovery of a more accurate representation of how these systems are organized. Barabási’s exploration began with the vast internet. Surprisingly, he found that the intricate web of connections did not follow random patterns but instead followed a power load distribution. He named these networks “scale-free networks.” Barabási’s groundbreaking work reveals that new connections in our networks tend to form with already well-connected elements. Scale-free networks exist in various complex systems, such as cellular interactions and social networks. This discovery is an important step toward comprehending the remarkable complexity that arises from countless interactions among the world’s many components. 0:00 Networks: How the world works 1:23 The theory of random graphs 3:15 What is network science? 6:49 Complex systems Read the video transcript ► https://bigthink.com/the-well/decoding-our-world-graph-theory-networks?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=youtube_description ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Albert-László Barabási: Albert-László Barabási is a network scientist, fascinated with a wide range of topics, from unveiling the structure of the brain and treating diseases using network medicine to the emergence of success in art and how science really works. His research has helped unveil the hidden order behind various complex systems using the quantitative tools of network science, a research field that he pioneered, and has led to the discovery of scale-free networks, helping explain the emergence of many natural, technological, and social networks. Barabási is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He is the author of The Formula (Little Brown), Network Science (Cambridge), Bursts (Dutton), and Linked (Penguin). He co-edited Network Medicine (Harvard, 2017) and The Structure and Dynamics of Networks (Princeton, 2005). His books have been translated into over twenty languages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read more from The Well: Eastern philosophy says there is no “self.” Science agrees ► https://bigthink.com/the-well/eastern-philosophy-neuroscience-no-self/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=youtube_description I’m “spiritual but not religious.” Here’s what that means for a physicist ► https://bigthink.com/the-well/spiritual-not-religious-physicist/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=youtube_description Groupthink is for mindless pawns, but group thinking will push humanity further ► https://bigthink.com/the-well/groupthink-vs-group-thinking/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=youtube_description When do humans become conscious — in the womb or after birth? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About The Well Do we inhabit a multiverse?

Episode drops Sept. 25th: https://ccl.podbean.com/e/ccr-ep-52-doug-parsons-on-adaptation-resilience-and-bouncing-forward/ Climate change related work often comes down on one of two sides: 1. Mitigation to reduce or end human causes greenhouse pollution in order to slow down and lessen the impacts of global warming. 2. Adaptation of our communities and infrastructure in order to prepare for the impacts of climate change and respond to extreme weather and other consequences of climate change. Doug Parsons, the host of the America Adapts Podcast talks to us about what he has learned from nearly 100 episodes interview adaptation experts. He will discuss the difference between adaptation and resiliency. He highlights efforts to adapt to sea level rise, wildfires, and flooding, and points out an impact of climate change that will affect almost everyone at some point in their lives—extreme heat. You can hear Citizens’ Climate Radio on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher Radio, SoundCloud, Podbean, Northern Spirit Radio, Google Play, PlayerFM, and TuneIn Radio.
