While many of the issues being talked about at the Bioneers conference are serious, there's no need not to have some fun once in a while! That's why we decided to wrap up our 'live' coverage of the conference with a light hearted look at a world wide problem - the environmental impact of plastic bags. So we dressed up one unlucky Terra producer in a year's supply of plastic bags to see what bioneers had to say about the issue - who said we don't suffer for our art!

From the very beginning, the soul of Bioneers has been rooted in the spirit of inclusion. All are welcome - those who share a commitment to understanding and defending the natural world especially so. This is the reason you are likely to be sitting next to a biologist, a shaman, and an urban farmer at the same lunch table. By bringing such a diverse group into the forum, Bioneers sparks rich and unusual connections which, in turn, inspire elegant new solutions. This creative energy manifests the ability of diverse human knowledge to transcend cultural and practical differences in pursuit of greater and more meaningful truths.

Green has gone global. But for the past 18 years, one of the major epicenters of the movement has been the national Bioneers conference in San Rafael, California. Now that green is moving rapidly into the mainstream, their is a new buzz in the air in San Rafael this year. There are also some new challenges: like how to preserve the moral compass of the movement and how to keep on the cutting edge . . . join us for a 'live' glimpse into Day One (more coverage to follow).

This weekend Terra will be taking off to California for an amazing event. The Bioneers conference is held once a year and offers thousands of people the chance to figure out how to grow their own food, reduce their impact on the environment, hear visionary thinkers talk and learn how to make positive change for all! The Terra crew will be interviewing plenary speakers, hearing what conference goers have to say and getting behind the scenes with the people that make it all happen. It's going to be a great trip - so tune in from Friday to Monday as we come to you live from San Rafael.

Years ago, back on the farm in Mississippi, a wetlands was just an area of pasture that was too swampy to grow hay or graze cattle. Little did I know back then that wetlands are some of the most biodiverse ecosystems on earth, and worthy of our preservation and amazement. Montana's Lee Metcalf Wildlife Refuge is a great example of a wetlands that is managed for the benefit of people and wildlife, with a special emphasis on migratory birds and endangered and threatened species. Crawl through the mud with Jeremy Roberts and watch "Wetlands in the Bitterroots".

Ray Bandar is not your average museum curator. How could he be with nicknames like Dr. Bones and Reptile Ray? He spends his days dressed in tattered clothes, walking San Francisco's beaches in search of the ultimate specimens for his collection - and what is he collecting? Skulls! Not just any old skulls though - these skulls are for one of the most diverse and exotic museum collections in the world. Seals, sharks, lions, hyenas - Ray has collected them all!

What have we learned from the debate over drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge? Is it just another place where we should take what is there and use it with no thought of the consequences? Does ANWR represent a vital resource to keep our society running the way it has for much of the 20th Century? Hopefully, if nothing else, it makes us think about the other possibilities out there. The finale to "Oil on Ice" shows us there are not only viable alternatives to using oil, but that these alternatives would actually be cheeper and better for all of us. Solar power, hybrid cars, wind power - take your pick, we just need to take that first step into the unknown. We'll have to change our behavior some time soon, so why not do it now and preserve some of the most beautiful areas of the world while we're at it?

Gwich'in natives travel to Washington to square off with George W. Bush and Alaska's pro-drilling congressional leaders. In the past, the 'impact' of drilling has been perceived to be a local environmental issue - relevant, surely, to the caribou and the Gwich'in but who else? The disastrous implications of climate change have certainly changed that attitude. ANWR is not a local issue anymore; it is a global issue. The burning of fossil fuels affects us all as global citizens not as local ones; therefore, Alaskans, Americans, the people of Tuvalu, all have something at stake. With respect to climate change, Buckminster Fuller said it best: "think globally, act locally." It is now time to recognize alternatives globally and to put those alternatives into practice locally.

TERRA 429: Working with Fire PREVIEW
05/21/08

The Nokuse Plantation is a 48,000 acre private conservation initiative in the Florida Panhandle. It is designed to be both a model and a catalyst for future landscape level conservation projects, which is the only way to preserve nature's intrinsic biodiversity. Danny Ledonne takes us on a prescribed burn at Nokuse in "Working with Fire".
