John Todd's lyrical exploration reveals essential ecological design principles, demonstrating how mimicking nature leads to breakthrough solutions. He shares insights from his award-winning eco-industrial park and strategies for purifying water bodies, from Lake Champlain to Venice. His natural sewage treatment systems utilize native plants to break down pollutants and produce clean water, aiming to evolve a holistic technological and social framework.

This talk was delivered at the 2002 Bioneers National Conference, part of the Ecological Design Collection, Vol. 1. Since 1990, Bioneers has served as a vital hub for social and scientific innovators, offering practical solutions for pressing environmental and social challenges.

The Endangered Species Act (ESA) secured a major victory last week as growing opposition halted the House of Representatives' effort to roll back this vital wildlife protection law. As Executive Director Kierán Suckling notes, the ESA is one of the world's most effective conservation laws, having prevented 99% of protected species, including bald eagles and gray wolves, from extinction.

This triumph benefits countless species like whales, sea turtles, and monarch butterflies, underscoring the power of collective voices. We extend our deepest gratitude to all Center supporters whose advocacy made this win for the wild possible.

The Center for Biological Diversity experienced a fast and successful 2025, despite multiple investigations and attacks from President Trump and far-right House members aimed at intimidation.

The Center for Biological Diversity experienced a fast and successful 2025, despite multiple investigations and attacks from President Trump and far-right House members aimed at intimidation. These efforts failed to slow us down.

Since Trump's second inauguration on January 20, we have filed 65 lawsuits. These actions targeted destructive policies, climate-killing fossil fuels, widespread chemical approvals, and the despoilment of vital ecosystems like the Everglades. We also fought corruption threatening wilderness areas and defended national parks from exploitation.

We are deeply grateful for your continued faith and anticipate more hard-fought battles and victories in 2026.

Far-right Republicans have launched another congressional "investigation" targeting the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD). CBD condemns this as a fraudulent abuse of power, designed to intimidate opponents. However, CBD remains unintimidated and is prepared to fight back aggressively.

CBD's Executive Director immediately called for Congress to investigate a real scandal: a Chilean billionaire and his mining company spent millions influencing Trump officials to reverse protections for the Boundary Waters Wilderness Area. This mine threatens endangered species and public lands. Suckling offered to testify publicly about these shady dealings, including corporate donations to the "investigators." CBD is committed to protecting wildlife and public resources.

The Endangered Species Act celebrates 50 years as one of the strongest laws for species protection, having saved 99% of those under its care. It has fully recovered species like bald eagles and gray whales, and is more vital than ever with millions facing extinction.

The Center for Biological Diversity is a Tucson-based 501c3 nonprofit. We believe human welfare is deeply linked to nature's diversity. Through science, law, and media, we work to secure a future for all species by protecting the lands, waters, and climate they need.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife released five GPS-collared gray wolves (three males, two females) from Oregon into Grand County on December 18, 2023. This historic effort aims to reestablish a healthy wolf population, fulfilling a 2020 voter mandate.

Under a finalized restoration plan, the agency will release up to 10 more wolves by mid-March 2024 and 30-50 over the next three to five years. The Center for Biological Diversity, a nonprofit, advocates for the protection of all species and their habitats through science and law.
