Featured Podcast

Janine Benyus on Biomimicry and Designing with Life’s Intelligence – Nature is not just a place — it’s a teacher, a guide and a blueprint for innovation. Willow is joined by Janine Benyus, biologist, author and co-founder of the Biomimicry Institute, whose groundbreaking work has transformed the way we think about designing with Nature rather than against it. Together, they outline the principles of biomimicry — the practice of looking to ecosystems, organisms and natural patterns for sustainable solutions to human challenges. From the way forests manage resources to the aerodynamics of fish, Janine reveals how nature has already solved many of the problems we face today. The Nature Of with Willow Defebaugh of Atmos

COP30: Shaping the Next Phase of Global Climate Policy – In November, world governments will gather in the heart of the Amazon for COP30, the United Nation’s climate talks. Ambassador André Corrêa do Lago, the president of COP30, has called out “economic denial” as the new front in the climate fight. As the battle to shape the future of global climate action reaches a critical moment, we open Climate Forward by pressing Corrêa do Lago on what must change — and who’s still standing in the way. Moderator: Somini Sengupta, International Climate Correspondent at The New York Times Filmed live at the 2025 New York Times Climate Forward event in Sept 2025
