I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

Aired 12/18/19 and also played on Xmas and New Years Day! Hello Sacramento! It's time again for the Climate Report. It's been officially declared now in Sacramento and as of 12/10/19, like the rest of the world, we are in a climate emergency. Now the real work begins to reduce our carbon budget to get to zero as fast as possible. Volunteering with 350Sacramento is a great way to help. A couple of great ways to contribute are to participate in the Mayors' Climate Commission and the Sacramento Transportation Authority is now considering a sales tax measure to fund transit/transportation for the next 40 years which will have a huge role on our carbon budget. There is much more you can do too so check out the 350sacramento.org website. The UN COP25 climate conference has just ended with disappointing results. That just makes our work more important to continue and expand. Meanwhile, it's also the holiday season and time for good music to put us in the mood for both. There are lots of songs to do just that and I'm not talking about the classics. A lot of new, climate change, holiday songs have come out in the last few years and I've even got a country music climate tune so get ready to sing along. Music is an important way to communicate and the message couldn't be more important now! Music: "Climate Crisis Xmas Carol" by Jennifer Leitham, "All I want is truth for Xmas" by Myna Birds "Climate Change Christmas" by The Dead End Streets, "Climate Change" by Cooper Alan, (country music!) "Manhattan in January" by Jill Solbe "Global Warming Christmas" by Sherwin Linton, "Climate Change Christmas" by Drew Jacobs, "Global Warming Stole Christmas" by Phillyblunts, "Shadows" by Sandel…

Happy Thanksgiving! With that in mind let's talk turkey again. If that doesn't make you hungry after going outside, what about peacocks? More on that today too. If that isn't a tasty idea, how about the 32nd Annual Un-Turkey Thanksgiving Dinner, 100% vegan community potluck hosted by the Sacramento Vegetarian Society, free admission with a potluck dish. Doors open at 5:30 at Warehouse Artist Lofts 1108 R Street. Sacramento.…

Did you know that gas powered lawn mowers/blowers create huge amounts of pollution including GHG emissions as well as health issues from dust and particulates? This must change and the time has come as we'll hear today. Also, the city has again delayed consideration of declaring a climate emergency. We'll hear draft language again to remind us why this is an urgent need. I also have a brief update on recent progress by the Mayors' Climate Commission who unanimously approved revised and stronger Land Use Strategy language consistent with the regional Sustainable Communities Strategy at their most recent meeting. The Mayors' Climate Commission also unanimously voted in favor of strong high level recommendations from the Mobility TAC. Previous meetings and materials are available online. The next meeting will be 12/2/19 with a focus on Community Health & Resiliency preliminary recommendations. Visit https://www.lgc.org/climatecommission/ for details.…

Hello Sacramento! It's time again for the Climate Report. It's also time for the Environmentalist of the Year Awards so listen up if you didn't have tickets for the event . What does it mean that the Trump administration is withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accord? I've got an update today and why it is so important for cities and states to continue to lead the way on efforts to address climate change. Sacramento, like many other cities, may be moving forward to declare a climate emergency and I've got draft language of what that resolution should look like.…

Today I share a recent interview about climate anxiety and depression by Ecosia. I've talked about the non-profit Ecosia before here. They have a search tool for your computer and other digital devices that raises funds for effective tree planting projects and other activities that fight climate change. Visit ecosia.org for details. We'll also revisit the local Language Academy school who have taken on a project to education parents, teachers and themselves about the harm from idling internal combustion engines.…

Fires seem to be everywhere again threatening lives, property and habitat. Top priority is to protect people, homes and communities. It's also important not to forget about nature which has the ability to heal the environment and protect us too. I'm going to replay Harrison Ford's recent passionate call "Don't Forget Nature" as a reminder today. Besides all the ecological services including clean air and water nature also has much to teach us as well as provide space where we can relax. Let's listen to nature again today. We'll also discuss how we can coexist with urban coyotes, the many values of listening to Nature and give thanks to the late Frank Cirill, who worked tirelessly for many years to establish and protect the American River Parkway.…

Earlier this week approximately 100 very energetic and creative students met at the latest Youth Climate Summit. No details are available yet but we will hear from an earlier student climate summit at Sacramento State University today. Where does SMUD, our utility company get it's energy? We'll here more from them on that today. We'll also hear some intriguing discussion about how to assess damage related to climate change today with mention of recent fires caused by PGE. There's a great film coming to Sacramento this Saturday the 26th. "MotherLoad" is about the use of cargo bikes and the important role they play in addressing climate change and much much more. This award winning crowd sourced film is free but priceless and is shown to benefit local bicycle organizations. Details on the 350Sacramento.org website.…

I'll share with you some observations about a recent event to welcome the salmon back to the American River while downstream many thousands of heavy metal music fans returned to that same river again this year. I've also got detailed comments that were recently submitted to the city of Sacramento regarding the many and unnecessary impacts that would occur to wildlife and habitat in the American River Parkway because of a poorly planned bike trail extension.…

Our thoughts and support go to the people in the Bahamas and surrounding region. We are only beginning to hear the stories of those that have survived Dorian, one of the worst hurricanes known. What does the science tell us about these storm events and what to expect in the future? Listen up today. As climate change continues to disproportionately impact those with the least ability to avoid these impacts what is the connection between a healthy planet and healthy people? I've got an amazing presentation by an emergency doctor to bring perspective to that.…

On today's show: I've talked before about how unique the American River Parkway is in our region and how Sutter's Landing Park is a gateway for Sacramento to the Parkway and all the nature, wildlife and recreation to be found there. The city has a draft environmental document to extend the Two Rivers Bike trail from Sutter's Landing Park to CSUSac out for review now. This is a great idea but the city's proposal is badly flawed. As proposed, the paved trail would be located off the levee, disturbing wildlife, impacting habitat, increasing habitat fragmentation, introducing invasive plants and more in a narrow, fragile section of the Parkway. Look at the recently constructed segment where similar impacts occurred as a result of the recent construction of a segment of this trail. A better solution that would avoid these problems is easily available too. Look at the upstream and downstream sections of the Two Rivers Bike trail. Existing trail segments are mainly on top of the levee avoiding impacting the Parkway. Reluctance by the AR flood control district and some neighbors has the city promoting an off levee proposal instead now. Like many people, I'd rather wait and work this out rather than go forward with a project that harms the Parkway. Meanwhile, work parties are underway at Sutter's Landing Park to remove recently introduced invasive plants and restore native habitat that was impacted as part of the last Two Rivers Bike trail project trail location. This will be an ongoing struggle now. Find out more at sutterslandingpark.org and friendsoftheriverbanks.org The huge number of fires in the Amazon has caused great concern and is truly a global issue but what can we do about it here? I've got a simple but important way you can help restore damaged Amazon and other forests. Ecosia is a nonprofit organization that provides a sustainable internet search tool generating funds for forest restoration. More on that today. What about insects? Did you know that there are millions of insect species and they are some of the most successful on the planet? Pollinators, food, predators, recyclers and more insects do it all. There has been quite a bit of discussion lately about an "insect apocalypse" but that's not an easy subject to study. I've got a suggestion today on how you can do just that, well kind of anyway, as you zoom around on your busy day.…
