Human-caused climate change is redistributing species across the globe, re-ordering ecological communities, and even driving genetic changes in some populations. We need to better understand these changes, and to adapt biodiversity conservation strategies to take them into consideration. To address these issues, the third international Species on the Move conference convened in Bonita Springs, Florida, in May 2023.

Climate change is putting more people and property in harm’s way—and also exposing hard limits to the protection that property insurance can offer. Far too many people don’t have insurance against damage caused by flooding, wildfires, and intensifying storms, either because they are not aware of the risk they face, or because they cannot afford insurance.

California has a long history of poor air quality and much of the pollution fouling the air is from cars and trucks. As early as 1966 , the state began to take regulatory action to reduce pollution from passenger cars and trucks. As a result of continuing progress on regulations, the air-polluting emissions of new passenger vehicles currently for sale are thankfully much lower than those of older vehicles.
