Insight and inspiration in turbulent times.
Voters in 2026 are going to be looking for answers to bread-and-butter issues. It will be up to the clean energy and environmental communities to help frame the debate in a manner that resonates with voters, particularly independents and conservative youth and builds a foundation for the 2028 elections.
The least responsible for climate change are often the ones who suffer more. Global justice demands that the world’s major emitters support vulnerable nations like Pakistan. The world must unite for this cause.
Green liberation is the answer to these dire times of brutality, aggression, anxiety, and fear. It aims to build from the grassroots up and to deliver the Green vision at the national and transnational levels.
Failing to stop the assault on the tools to even track our GHG emissions will mean at best the U.S. becoming a pariah state, at worst it can derail the global efforts to curb climate change and progress to transition beyond fossil fuels.

The Lummi, who consider themselves related to these whales and have lived amongst them for millennia, say these mother whales are not only grieving, they are communicating, calling out for us to see their plight.
Lands vital for climate resilience and the forestry industry are also critical habitats for declining bird species, offering a rare opportunity to align conservation with ecosystem services and secure a resilient future for both birds and people.
A recent piece in New Scientist has reminded me that it is a myth that humans, if they are wise and clever enough, can learn to “manage” the biosphere.
Thus, although rewilding is often thought of as keeping humans “away”, in fact, people must be integrated into much of the rewilding process, living alongside and allowing space for “wildness”.
