The Chumash, a maritime culture for millennia, built strong *tomol* plank canoes to navigate the Channel Islands' treacherous waters. European colonization nearly eradicated this craft through forced assimilation. Today, Alan Salazar and his Chumash and Fernandeño Tataviam communities are revitalizing *tomol* building and paddling, passing vital knowledge to new generations.

Support the Tataviam Land Conservancy’s project to build two *tomols*. This initiative will unite the Fernandeño Tataviam and Chumash tribes through educational events and workshops focused on *tomol* craft, culture, and paddling. Please specify "Tomol Project" when donating at tataviam.land/donation/.

High school senior Raghav Kalyanaraman has dedicated two years to restoring North Texas's Blackland Prairie Ecosystem. This vital habitat, with less than 0.001% remaining, supports over 500 native species, prevents soil erosion, and replenishes aquifers.

Leading hundreds of youth volunteers, Raghav has restored five acres at the Heard Museum. His work includes clearing invasive species, planting native flora, installing 118 waterbars to mitigate trail erosion, and constructing enclosures to aid dwindling box turtle populations. He also founded Eagles For Environment to further community involvement. Learn more at broweryouthawards.org.

Jeff Corwin joins conservationists in California to protect pinnipeds, including elephant seals and sea lions. Organizations like the Marine Mammal Care Center and Defenders of Wildlife are crucial in rescuing and rehabilitating these animals, which face severe threats from climate change, overfishing, habitat loss, and plastic pollution.

Corwin assists Dr. Lauren Palmer and Andy Johnson in rehabilitating four malnourished California sea lion pups, one of whom ingested plastic. After critical care, tagging, and weighing, the pups are successfully released back into the wild. This effort underscores the vital role of conservation in giving endangered animals a second chance and addressing environmental challenges for ecosystem health.

Technology is vital for sustainable agriculture, especially in water conservation. Techniques like drip irrigation precisely deliver water, while hydroponics recycles every drop, boosting yields

Technology is vital for sustainable agriculture, especially in water conservation. Techniques like drip irrigation precisely deliver water, while hydroponics recycles every drop, boosting yields ten-fold and strengthening plants. The focus is on "right-tech," not just high or low, paving the way for autonomous farms.

Sachin, CEO of Simply Fresh Private Limited, exemplifies this innovation. His team successfully combined hydroponic soil-less farming with AI to create "Farm in A Box" (FiAB), India's largest state-of-the-art precision farm. This transformative approach was shared at a TEDx event.

Join a virtual discussion with "Framers" co-authors Kenneth Cukier, Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, and Francis de Véricourt. Their book explores "framing"—the unique human ability to create mental models for understanding complex global challenges like pandemics, AI, and climate change. Framing helps us see patterns and make decisions, a vital skill in an era of algorithms and societal upheaval. George Hammond will moderate.
