“MRS ROBINSON” chronicles Mary Robinson's half-century fight for justice and equality, told in her own words. It illuminates her battles on the streets, in courts, at the ballot box, and in corridors of power.

A reforming constitutional lawyer and senator, Mary made history as Ireland's President in 1990. She then served as UN High Commissioner, fearlessly challenging human rights abuses worldwide. Today, she chairs The Elders, an independent group founded by Nelson Mandela, dedicated to peace and human rights.

Directed by Aoife Kelleher and produced by Loosehorse, “MRS ROBINSON” was funded by Fís Éireann /Screen Ireland and the Utah Film Center. Pat Mitchell is among the executive producers.

At the COP15 Biodiversity Conference in Montreal, John D. Liu, Paul Beckwith, Raya Salter, and Dale Walkonen provided an update. They discussed the #30by30 proposal, which aims to conserve 30% of the world's lands and oceans for nature by 2030. Key questions regarding implementation, governance, indigenous involvement, and funding remain unresolved.

Addressing the Climate Crisis requires restoring natural systems. The final agreement, crucial for this effort, is being finalized and expected by Friday, December 19th.

Al Gore criticized leaders at the January 2023 Davos forum for climate inaction, emphasizing how fossil fuel-based economies are pushing us toward the IPCC's worst scenarios. Daily, 16 million tons of greenhouse gases enter the troposphere, a number that continues to climb.

While we appreciate Gore's vital passion, it's also crucial to address animal agriculture alongside fossil fuel reduction.

For further details, refer to the IPCC Report and the FacingFuture Library.

Stark global temperature rise predictions and the urgent need for climate action are taking an immense emotional and psychological toll on scientists. Inspired by The Guardian's "Hopeless and Broken: Climate Scientists Despair," climate attorney Raya Salter and IPCC Lead Author Dr. Ruth Cerezo Mota discuss their personal experiences with this despair.

Dr. Cerezo Mota, a climatologist with over 15 years in climate modeling, shares her work's real-world impacts and the challenges of political resistance, funding, and public apathy. Despite these hurdles, her motivation fuels vital research.

Topics also included personal resilience and strategies for shifting governmental worldviews.

Our world faces a crisis, with life on the planet under attack. Beyond false solutions, critical questions emerge regarding food systems, economic models, and halting fossil fuel expansion. Climate justice groups are actively challenging dominant patriarchal cultures that exploit nature, other cultures, and women, advocating for biodiversity, ecosystem health, and the Rights of Nature.

Osprey Orielle Lake, founder of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network, discusses her new book, The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis, with host Dale Walkonen. Her work explores how climate justice can address these global challenges.

Understanding the land footprint of various energy sources is crucial for current global energy requirements. Solar power utilizes 1% of the world's land, while wind energy demands 5%.

In contrast, nuclear power is significantly more land-efficient, requiring only 0.1% of the world's land to meet current energy needs.

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.
