Spending 90% of our time indoors negatively impacts health more than diet or exercise. Hexagro Urban Farming, an Italian startup, addresses this by creating a modular, nature-inspired system. Mimicking honeybee hives and tree structures, their solution transforms interior spaces into beautiful gardens, increasing access to healthy food.

Hexagro's automated indoor garden is modular, scalable, and utilizes high-pressure aeroponics, LED horticulture lighting, and environmental sensors. Join this session, streamed via Restream.io, to discover the first automated indoor garden designed to deliver abundance for everyone.

Transforming our energy infrastructure to meet greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals necessitates deploying electric vehicles and energy storage. However, their real-world effectiveness depends on proper grid integration and careful planning. Research by Brian Tarroja and his UC Irvine colleagues identifies these critical integration needs and life cycle planning considerations to ensure the full GHG benefits of these technologies are realized in future electricity systems.

This program is from the Institute for Energy Efficiency, presented by UCTV. As the University of California's broadcast and online media platform, UCTV offers in-depth programming from its campuses and research institutions, exploring a broad spectrum of subjects for a global audience, embodying UC's core missions of teaching, research, and public service.

C40's Women4Climate initiative empowers women to lead climate action. Through a global mentorship program and leadership events in C40 cities, it aims to foster new thinking and momentum among future leaders.

Women, who comprise over half the world's population, are often disproportionately impacted by climate change but lack representation in decision-making. Enhancing their participation and leadership is crucial for a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable future for all.

Climate activist Luisa Neubauer, co-founder of "Fridays For Future," envisions a future where humanity has overcome the climate crisis. She emphasizes that addressing this challenge is a collective responsibility, not limited to one generation, and offers four initial steps for anyone to become an activist.

Women are disproportionately affected by climate change, yet their voices are often unheard in decision-making. Enhancing their participation and leadership is crucial for a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable future, as highlighted by the Women4Climate initiative.

Clara Duchalet exemplifies this, having joined the C40 Women4Climate program to develop Vépluche, her circular economy startup valorizing organic waste.

Aspiring climate leaders are invited to join this session to learn how they can contribute.

Collapsing ice shelves and calving icebergs in Greenland and Antarctica are now major drivers of sea level rise. The speed of these changes highlights significant gaps in our understanding of how ice sheets respond to climate change, largely due to insufficient measurements from glaciers' marine edges.

For over a decade, Fiammetta Straneo and her Scripps Institution of Oceanography team have probed Greenland's calving glaciers using diverse vehicles. Their research provides crucial data, improving models and sea-level rise predictions. This presentation was recorded on May 13, 2019, as part of the "Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean Science Lecture Series."

Flowing through the arid Arizona-Sonora borderlands, the San Pedro River is a vital lifeline. This "damned miracle" is one of the Southwest's last undammed rivers, supporting over 80 mammal

Flowing through the arid Arizona-Sonora borderlands, the San Pedro River is a vital lifeline. This "damned miracle" is one of the Southwest's last undammed rivers, supporting over 80 mammal species—including jaguars and pumas—along with amphibians, imperiled yellow-billed cuckoos, 250+ migratory bird species, and unique native fish. Its incredible biodiversity demands protection.

However, the San Pedro is drying up. Unsustainable groundwater pumping by a growing population has caused base flows to decline by 67% since the 1940s, creating a significant annual water deficit. This crisis stems from unchecked population growth and a lack of effective water-conservation planning.

To help protect this critical ecosystem, join the Center for Biological Diversity's e-list of activists and animal lovers here.

Stigma surrounding female sexuality has created a significant pleasure gap and inequality in intimate spaces. Female pleasure remains a taboo topic, hindering progress towards a sex-positive

Stigma surrounding female sexuality has created a significant pleasure gap and inequality in intimate spaces. Female pleasure remains a taboo topic, hindering progress towards a sex-positive future.

Billie Quinlan, co-founder and CEO of Leika—a platform dedicated to improving women's sexual well-being—addresses this issue. In her TEDx talk, she challenges the status quo, asking uncomfortable questions to confront societal norms around sexuality.
