Earth on Track to Become Uninhabitable, Scientists Say

The planet is close to entering a death-spiral that could bring about a worst-case-scenario known as "hothouse Earth."

🌎 For Earth Day, we're launching our newest climate film: The White House Effect!

Using exclusively archival material, The White House Effect tells the dramatic origin story of the climate crisis & how a political battle in the George H.W. Bush administration changed the course of history.

The film explores how early promises of action were reshaped by political pressure and economic interests, and how those decisions set the stage for the climate challenges we now face.

Our film guides explore key themes of the film through reflection on leadership, responsibility, and more. Resources include a Climate Emotions Wheel and tools for centering hope through action and engagement. For grades 6-12, higher ed/adult and community use.

Happy birthday to astronaut, author, professional football player, and STEM educator Leland Melvin, born on this day in 1964.

He's also one of the stellar cast of astronauts featured in National Geographic's series One Strange Rock, which tells the story of Earth’s history from a planetary perspective. (Plus he has one of the greatest official work photos of all time!)

Within our solar system, planet Earth is utterly unique among the planets, moons, and dwarf planets found there. Only Earth has a breathable atmosphere, the ability to “heal” itself following planetary bombardment in its early history and more recent “extinction events,” and large amounts of liquid water on its surface.

We offer free lessons plans for this series to teach in science, English and history classes.

It's a great cross-curriculum teaching tool for Earth Month!

What can a century of mountain photographs tell us about a rapidly changing world? 🏔️

The Mountain Legacy Project has spent nearly 30 years combining Library and Archives Canada collections, provincial archives, museum records, and repeat photography from historical vantage points to find out—and now it's a book.

Join us this Thursday (Feb 12, 7 PM) at UVic Libraries (Room A308, DSC) for the launch of Mountain Voices and a panel on why mountains matter and how awe can become action.

Free event, open to everyone. No expertise required - only curiosity. Stay for the reception after!
