Border Patrol is consuming millions of gallons of groundwater for wall construction in southeastern Arizona. This practice imperils rare desert springs and the endangered species that depend on them.

We visited the San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge on the border to observe the impact firsthand.

Filmed at the new border wall construction within Arizona's Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, this poem addresses the complex struggles unfolding along the border.

It powerfully conveys the challenges faced by migrants seeking refuge, the fragmentation of wildlife populations and ecosystems, and the militarization impacting indigenous communities.

Robin Wall Kimmerer, a mother, scientist, and Citizen Potawatomi Nation member, is an acclaimed author. Her books, including the widely praised "Braiding Sweetgrass" (also adapted for young adults) and award-winning "Gathering Moss," highlight Indigenous wisdom and scientific knowledge, fostering ecological understanding through plants.

This short film is part of The Arachne Project, a May 2024 gathering by Oregon State University's Spring Creek Project. This diverse community of writers, scientists, and Indigenous leaders explored new visions for conservation in an uncertain future. Learn more at https://beav.es/arachne.

The pandemic highlighted humanity's need to address future global crises like climate change and biodiversity loss, which lack simple solutions. Romain Troublé, Executive Director of the Tara Ocean Foundation since 2009, has dedicated his career to understanding our planet.

Troublé's extensive experience includes organizing polar missions (2003-2006) and managing the Tara schooner expeditions since 2004. The Foundation has led 12 expeditions, significantly advancing ocean knowledge through studies on marine plankton, micro-plastic pollution, coral reefs, and the oceanic microbiome.

This TEDx talk relates to the Tara Ocean Foundation's work. Learn more at Tara Expeditions and TEDx.

Michael Robinson, a conservation advocate with the Center for Biological Diversity, highlights the severe impact of Trump’s border wall.

He explains that the wall will halt the free migration of wildlife, including the Southwest's last wild bison herd and endangered jaguars. #BorderViews

The border wall is advancing towards a crucial jaguar corridor that links the rugged mountains of Sonora, Mexico, with Arizona's unique sky islands. This area is vital for jaguar movement and genetic diversity.

Randy Seraglio, Southwest Conservation Advocate for The Center, highlights the significant environmental consequences and what is at stake for this endangered species and its habitat.

Under the Trump administration, thousands of ancient saguaros, some over a century old, were bulldozed for the border wall. Many transplanted cacti died within six months. These slow-growing desert sentinels are irreplaceable. Please share this video showing their tragic fate.

Despite a previously unknown jaguar sighting in southern Arizona, border-wall construction crews recently detonated explosions in Coronado National Memorial. This destruction impacts federally protected critical jaguar habitat, along with threatened Mexican spotted owls and the endangered beardless chinchweed flower.

Russ McSpadden of the Center for Biological Diversity, who filmed the destruction, stated the wall "will fracture jaguar migration routes, choke genetic diversity, and wipe out natural connections." The administration waived environmental laws to accelerate this work, setting the stage for "long-term ecological collapse."
