Climate change demands urgent, integrated action: reducing greenhouse gas pollution, rapidly scaling carbon drawdown, and building societal resilience. These efforts must prioritize equity. Fortunately, "whole problem" approaches are emerging globally, offering effective pathways forward through cross-sector collaboration.

This discussion, moderated by Kerry Fugett, featured leaders like Trathen Heckman, Lil Milagro Henriquez, and Brett KenCairn, who are outlining revolutionary blueprints. For more from the Bioneers 2020 Conference, visit https://bioneers.org/2020talks/.

Join us for an online talk with acclaimed environmental journalist Eugene Linden, author of nine non-fiction books. He will discuss his new book, *Fire and Flood*, which examines how business interests have historically obscured scientific warnings and hindered climate action. Linden, whose *Winds of Change* won the Grantham Prize, previously covered environmental issues for *Time*.

In *Fire and Flood*, Linden reveals how big money prioritizes short-term profits over long-term threats. He details the insurance industry's dramatic shift, now retreating from high-risk regions like Florida and California due to unmanageable fire and flood risks. This signals a broader business awakening to the urgent need for rapid climate action as long-term consequences become immediate.

To mark the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, Professor Gabrielle Wong-Parodi shared her reflections on April 17, 2020.

Claire Fyson, a Research Analyst at Climate Analytics and co-author of "Governing Large-scale Carbon Dioxide Removal: Are We Ready?", highlighted specific governance challenges related to large-scale CO2 removal, using Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) as an example.

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.
