Honoring Environmental Heroes in 2025

Would you stand up against a giant corporation to stop toxic chemicals from harming your town’s water? Could you get policy enacted to cut emissions affecting people living in your state’s “diesel death zone?” How would you launch a global campaign to stop the construction of a new port threatening marine life on your island? Every year, the Goldman Environmental Prize is awarded to six grassroots environmental heroes from around the world at a grand ceremony at the San Francisco Opera House. This year, Climate One was honored to host two of the winners for an intimate conversation. In this episode we also share a conversation with a winner of last year’s Prize. All three are remarkable examples of ordinary people taking extraordinary action to protect the environment and their communities.  Guests: Andrea Vidaurre, Cofounder, People's Collective for Environmental Justice Laurene Allen,  Cofounder, Merrimack Citizens for Clean Water Carlos Mallo Molina, CEO & Founder Innoceana On June 4, Climate One is hosting a special screening of the documentary “Good Grief: The 10 Steps” to be followed by a climate anxiety workshop. Join us for this intimate conversation about the importance of mental health live at The Commonwealth Club. Tickets are available through our website. Support Climate One by going ad-free!
