The American Southwest grapples with complex water issues, from prolonged drought to flash floods, prompting questions about water rights, equitable sharing, and diverse cultural perspectives.

Join the Natural History Institute for an in-person screening of the "Parched" documentary, featuring comments from curator Julie Comnick and producer Jane Marks. The film chronicles the creation of the "Parched: The Art of Water in the Southwest" exhibit.

This exhibit explores water complexities amid climate change and increasing demands. Nine regional artists, guided by scientists and advocates, spent a year creating original art pieces that reflect the conflicting demands on water for agriculture, recreation, households, and nature.

In October 1972, following public action, Congress passed the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). The first federal law of its kind, it aimed to protect marine mammals in U.S. waters, allowing them to recover and thrive.

The MMPA has since saved countless marine mammals from unregulated hunting and pollution. Yet, significant threats like climate change, fishing gear entanglement, and oil and gas development persist, underscoring the need for continued implementation and enforcement.

Join us through October to celebrate the MMPA's 50th anniversary. We'll share stories, host events, and provide opportunities for action. Help spread awareness by sharing our video with #MMPA50.

Plastic pollution worsens daily, with millions of tonnes entering our environment due to a "take-make-waste" economy. This harms nature, depletes resources, fuels climate and biodiversity crises, and wastes billions in valuable materials.

While companies have made voluntary efforts like reducing virgin plastic and piloting reuse, these actions lack the necessary scale. Plastic pollution is a global challenge, transcending borders, and requires a coordinated, globally aligned response.

We must urgently translate ambition into action. A legally-binding UN treaty on plastic pollution offers a permanent solution. This episode explores its potential, featuring insights from Eirik Lindebjerg (WWF) and Rolando Castro Cordoba (Costa Rica, MINAE).
