Rachel Armstrong on using "living architecture" to remediate environmental damage. She proposes saving Venice by encrusting the wood pilings that support the city with programmable proto-cells which would build a carbonate reef around the wood- "rather than the city of Venice wearing stilettos, as it currently does, it would be wearing platform shoes. . .

"The time has come to move beyond eco-elitism to eco-populism."
The Commonwealth Club awarded Van Jones a 21st Century Visionary Award for guiding the nation to ecological equality. Jones called for a 'serious' climate and energy bill to stop companies from dumping 'planet-cooking pollution' into the atmosphere. 'If you take away that right to pollute for free,' says Jones, 'you send a signal to the only force in the world that can solve this problem - the entrepreneur.'

The Green Patriarch:
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew
The name "Green Patriarch' is hardly sufficient to describe this amazing man, who, while still in the grip of the tidal forces of human history unleashed by the collapse of the Roman Empire, is one of the few who really grasps the significance of the current moment for the future of humanity and Creation. His quiet and persevering influence has been great, up there with Al Gore, maybe more so. This is a powerful film on a true spiritual leader working behind the scenes to change the way humanity relates to Earth and Nature. (watch The Green Patriarch)

Author Derrick Jensen:
Deep Green Resistance
Amy Goodman: "We speak with Derrick Jensen, who has been called the poet-philosopher of the ecological movement. He has written some 15 books critiquing contemporary society and the destruction of the environment. His many books include A Language Older than Words, Endgame, What We Left Behind, Resistance Against Empire, and Deep Green Resistance. "I think a lot of us are increasingly recognizing that the dominant culture is killing the planet," Jensen says. "I think its very important for us to start to build a culture of resistance, because what were doing isnt working, clearly." (watch video)
