Peter Singer, author of "Famine, Affluence and Morality,” discusses effective altruism and our moral obligation to help others. This philosophy advocates for raising minimum living standards, encouraging everyone—not just the wealthy—to contribute and find happiness in improving the world.

Singer outlines the movement's history, highlighting Zell Kravinsky, who exemplified effective altruism by donating most of his wealth and a kidney to a stranger. He also emphasizes the critical need for thorough research before donating to any cause, ensuring the greatest possible good.

Indigenous Pacific peoples possess centuries of deep ocean knowledge. Today, commercial farming, overfishing, resource extraction, and global warming severely threaten these vital ocean ecosystems, intensifying the climate crisis.

A panel of three leaders, intimately familiar with land-ocean relationships, will explore strategies to restore balance to the Pacific and the planet. Moderated by Alexis Bunten, the discussion features Loa Niumeitolu, Kiana Frank, and Andrea Kealoha. This talk was delivered at the 2023 Bioneers Conference.

Amid growing success in Indigenous-led #landback campaigns and triumphs over extraction, this session highlights the crucial link between land restoration and addressing collective trauma. It explores how #landback efforts can benefit from including Black and other marginalized groups, and critically examines if ‘call out culture’ hinders decolonization movements.

Moderated by Eriel Deranger, with Jodie Geddes and Carlee Loft, panelists will share practical strategies. These include an intergenerational focus, ceremony, and spending time on the land.

This monumental achievement highlights tribal activism and groundbreaking partnerships.

Learn about this success, culture-based restoration, and tribal collaboration with state and federal governments. This talk, delivered at the 2023 Bioneers Conference, was moderated by Cara Romero, with Samuel Gensaw, Isaac Kinney, and Craig Tucker. For more information, visit bioneers.org.
