In 2010, New York City's carbon footprint was 54 million metric tons of CO2, equating to 1.72 tons per second. This immense scale of atmospheric pollution is often difficult for most people to comprehend.

Carbon Visuals and the Environmental Defense Fund aim to make these emissions more tangible. They help visualize both the total output and the rate of emission, making the city's environmental impact more understandable.

Bill McKibben spoke at the Marion Institute in New Bedford, MA, from October 26-28, 2012. His presentation focused on the ongoing fight against global warming, urging New Englanders to join the effort.

McKibben, author of a dozen environmental books including the seminal *The End of Nature* (1989), co-founded the grassroots climate campaign 350.org. A fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, he notably led the 2011 White House protest against the Keystone pipeline, which resulted in 1,253 arrests—the largest civil disobedience action in 30 years.

Pioneers John Elkington, Bjorn Stigson, Doug Miller, and David Suzuki fear climate change issues may worsen before improving. They believe unity and meaningful progress will only occur when daily life disruptions force a realization of the connection between actions and consequences.

This perspective is from one of twenty Ray Anderson Memorial Interviews. These interviews are part of The Regeneration Project, a collaborative initiative by Sustainability and GlobeScan.

The CBC has produced a documentary exploring the life and career of Maurice Strong.

Strong was a prominent figure, known as both an oil executive and an environmentalist, instrumental in the creation of The Kyoto Protocol.

Bjorn Stigson is president of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), a global association of 200 CEO-led companies focused on sustainable development.

He emphasizes that climate change is primarily a competitiveness issue for businesses. Those operating under resource and pollution constraints must innovate.

Ultimately, companies delivering green and clean solutions will emerge as winners. (ABC Radio/Australia)

F. Sherwood Rowland, UCI Bren Research Professor of chemistry and Earth system science, received the 1995 Nobel Prize in chemistry. He was honored for his discovery that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in products like aerosol sprays damage the Earth's protective ozone layer. Although initially controversial, this crucial finding ultimately led to a worldwide ban on CFCs.

Professor Rowland passed away on Saturday, March 10, 2012. This video was produced by Kerrin Piche Serna, University Communications. For more information, visit F. Sherwood Rowland's Wikipedia page or read an Al Jazeera article on ozone.
