From Oscar-nominated filmmakers Betsy West and Oren Jacoby, "This Is Not a Drill" documents three unlikely heroes confronting the powerful fossil fuel industry amidst escalating extreme weather. Justin J. Pearson rallies a multiracial coalition against a crude oil pipeline in Memphis, Roishetta Ozane transforms personal loss into political action in Louisiana, and Sharon Wilson, a former oil insider, exposes invisible methane leaks in Texas.

Backed by John D. Rockefeller's descendants, this coalition uncovers "Big Oil’s Big Con"—an industry promoting fossil fuels while disguising the truth. This Patagonia film showcases how courage, grit, and determination can inspire grassroots victories against powerful forces.

COP discussions on climate change mitigation and adaptation have proven ineffective. Instead, planetary-scale action is crucial for restoring natural ecological function. John D. Liu leads this effort, engaging thousands across over 80 global restoration projects.

Nick Breeze, author of COPOUT, and Liu explore ways to protect Earth’s vital systems. This program, from COP29 in Baku, includes an inspiring clip from "The Flourishing Path" featuring Jane Goodall.

Late Native American scholar John Mohawk explored the interrelationship of human evolution and today's climate crisis. He observed that historically, hunter-gatherers and farmers maintained an intimate knowledge of the natural world, especially plants, a connection now rapidly diminishing.

Mohawk highlighted "Native American pragmatism," which successfully balanced practical and spiritual aspects for millennia. He argued that re-establishing this kinship with the plant world, guided by such pragmatism, is crucial for surviving dramatic climatic changes.

At COP28 in Dubai, Raya Salter and Carlos Garcia hosted a panel examining the climate impact of military operations. With global conflicts destroying cities, lives, and ecosystems, peace is essential to prevent catastrophic climate failure.

Tamara Lorincz highlighted over two trillion dollars annually spent on military operations and resource extraction. Dr. Amara Eniya explained how climate crisis-driven droughts and floods compound national debt, crippling nations struggling to meet basic needs. John D. Liu, representing Commonland, showcased global efforts to restore land and hydrological cycles.

Governments, constrained by global economic competition, struggle to address the climate crisis effectively. John Bunzl offers The SIMPOL pledge, enabling citizens to vote for politicians who commit to simultaneous climate action once enough nations agree. Corporations can also sign to lower emissions.

Bunzl, with Nick Duffell, co-authored *The SIMPOL Solution*, which explores the psychological, political, and economic barriers preventing unified action on the #ClimateCrisis.

To learn more and take the pledge, visit simpol.org. Businesses can join at theclimatepledge.com. *The Simpol Solution* is available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon. For more information on our planet, visit the FacingFuture Library.
