There are few people like Dr. Paul Zeitz.
He is a medical #doctor, a #rabbi, an #activist, and an #author to name a few. He has a unique ability to deconstruct what makes us โtickโ and help people manage their triggers, ultimately leading to healing and repairing ourselves, our relationships, awaken political imagination, and stimulate a new vision of peaceful, revolutionary transformation.
His book, โRevolutionary Optimism โ 7 Steps for Living as a Love-Centered Activistโ, is a must-read manual that leads you to a deepened understanding of yourself, your past traumas, and how to lead with empathy and understanding.

Tony and his team have had numerous accomplishments within his community, including the โPick Up Brickโ events for school and scout groups, partnering with local NGOs like Clean Ocean Action on Beach Sweeps, Save Barnegat Bay, and of utmost importance, Tony organized his community to save 30 acres of woods from being destroyed for a high-end housing development.

Mark Legacy is a true polymath as well as a hands-on inventor focused on solving complexย problems for a world in need of climate change solutions with an environmental justice focus. His work has spanned the construction industry, having worked as a carpenter, mason, builder, and welder as well as a blacksmith.
For 8 years he was a competitive cyclist until a motor vehicle accident left him with a permanent disability. He had to quit college due to not being able to afford the tuition. But he could afford a library card! and reimagined his future. He embraced mental work and began the many related studies that would help confirm the proof of concept for his future inventions. Without formal training, he devoted himself to research and development within the marine energy storage, design and structural engineering industry culminating with a patent granted without prior art in 2014 for Humpback Hydro, a long duration pumped hydro energy storage solution (US 8823195-B2).
More patents are in process.

In the past few years, 7 crucial insurance carriers have either ceased property coverage in the State of California or severely reduced the coverages offered. On Friday, September 22, 2023, the California Insurance Commissioner announced key changes to the insurance industry in an effort to bring these carriers back.
The question is, will it work? Rex Frazier, President of the Personal Insurance Federation of California (PIFC), discusses these proposed ideas in detail and outlines what the โcatchesโ are.

Globally, Extreme Wildfire Events (EWEs) are becoming more frequent. They burn bigger, at a higher intensity, and can quickly sprawl out of control accounting for 80% of total associated fire-damages and are increasingly contributing to global greenhouse gas emissions and worsening health impacts from pollutants.
Jay Stalnacker, Technical Lead for Wildfire with XPRIZE, has 27 years of experience providing government and private industry health, safety, disaster, and emergency management services. His experience in emergency and disaster management includes serving as Operations Branch Director for the Pacific Northwest Federal Type 1 Incident Management Team (PNW2). PNW2 is one of the only eight federal teams that respond across the world for complex disaster management. Mr. Stalnacker previously served in non-military government special operations and a member of the elite Federal Smokejumper Program and have served as a commissioned SWAT police officer. ย

Stephen Pallrand is the president of Home Front Build. His background in construction, architecture, architectural history, painting, and set design has aided him in pulling together the diverse group of artists, craftsmen, architects, and designers who work on the โCarbonShackโ projects.
His father was a scientist/educator and his mother was an educator and patron of the arts. This exposure to art, science, and education led him to realize that building in an environmentally conscious manner is unimportant if you do not communicate the need and educate the consumer, for there are no green buildings, only green users. Our understanding of the environment is changing radically and so is the fate of the earth based on our actions as a civilization. Art and architecture have always played a critical role in representing the knowledge and culture of a period. Pallrand's use of the CarbonShack projects is to transform our shelters and homes into vehicles of change.
