During SF Climate Week, Climate One hosted 2025 Goldman Environmental Prize winners Laurene Allen and Carlos Mallo Molina. These inspiring leaders protect their communities from powerful interests, often at great personal risk. Join Co-Host Greg Dalton to explore their extraordinary actions.

Carlos Mallo Molina led a campaign to stop Fonsalía Port construction, canceled in October 2021. The terminal threatened a 170,000-acre marine protected area in Tenerife, home to sea turtles, whales, and sharks. He now envisions a marine conservation and education center.

Laurene Allen protected New England families from PFAS-contaminated drinking water. Her campaign pressured an industrial giant, responsible for toxic "forever chemicals," to close in May 2024, ending over 20 years of pollution.

Syukuro Manabe delivered his Nobel Prize lecture, "Physical modelling of Earth’s climate," on Wednesday, December 8, 2021. Professor Thors Hans Hansson introduced him.

Manabe shared the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics with Klaus Hasselmann. Their work was recognized for "physical modelling of Earth's climate, quantifying variability and reliably predicting global warming."

The prize, awarded for "groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of complex systems," also saw Giorgio Parisi receive the other half for his discoveries on disorder and fluctuations in physical systems.

Mountain lions, more closely related to housecats than lions, face challenging lives in Central California's urban wildlands. Their habitat is fragmented by freeways and development. Despite their wild nature, puma kittens behave much like domestic cats, and their mothers even purr. (Footage courtesy of the National Park Service)
