ALAN PEARLMAN
Alan moved to Santa Fe ten years ago after a long career in Neurology and Developmental Neurobiology. Recent photographic projects have explored the rapid and disturbing transformation of the landscape of New Mexico, the remains of structures built by various empires that were once mighty and are now gone, and portraits of the fascinating people who now make up Santa Fe. CHANGING FISHING PRACTICES IN MAURITIUS: A SUCCESS STORY Fishers were reluctant at first, but, thanks to the hard on-the-ground work of NGOs, the initiative was a success. The next step was launching a national seasonal octopus closure in 2016, a difficult task. Mauritius is nearly 20 times bigger than Rodrigues, and therefore more challenging to regulate. PROTECTING THE ARCTIC REFUGE: GWICH’IN PEOPLE DEFEND THE The Refuge’s coastal plain is held sacred as the birthing grounds of the Porcupine Caribou Herd that sustains the lives, culture, subsistence economy and spirit of the Gwich’in People. Named for the Porcupine River, this herd of caribou migrates across vast distances in Alaska and Canada, returning to ANWR each year for calving. ROSS HONIG | VOICES FOR BIODIVERSITY Ross Honig is a junior accounting major at American University and a member of the swim team. He is originally from Worcester, Massachusetts, where he lived with his parents, Lisa and Peter, and sisters Laura and Rachael. ILLEGAL TRADE REVEALS UNKNOWN ORCHIDS Illegal Trade Reveals Unknown Orchids. Ornamental orchids and Huperzia sp. for sale at a market. You might not expect to discover new plants at your local city market, but scientists recently documented new orchid species found for sale at a market in downtown Bangkok. Commercial trade of wild-collected plants is restricted in mostcountries.

BIODIVERSITY AWARENESS: A STORY OF HOPE I came to realize the importance of biodiversity through science. I was blessed with the opportunity to continue my education after elementary school; secondary school and university were not easily accessible for me. It was a miracle, really, because our family situation was so very difficult. The Genocide of 1994 took my father. THE GROWING IMPORTANCE OF ECOFEMINISM In a world of growing pollution, increasing climate change and dramatic biodiversity loss, ecofeminism can offer humans a new lens through we which we can view our role in conservation. These new ideas suggest a way of thinking and organizing ourselves by encouraging interconnectedness with our environment and addressing the subjugation of women and marginalized peoples. THE ECONOMIC VALUE OF NATURE In recent years there has been an effort to determine the economic value of nature by national governments and international committees. Although this utilitarian view applied to the complexity of nature could result in underestimating the value of biological resources, it is, at least, an attempt to make the discipline of economics acknowledge that nature has been providing humanity with what INSPIRING YOUNG PEOPLE TO CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT Extracurricular work can do more than just inspire youth to care about the environment; it can also combat depression, build self esteem, and provide professional job skills.

Bonnie Lee Black weaves beautiful tales from her life as a Peace Corps volunteer in Gabon and introduces readers to the many ways of how to cook a crocodile. GARBAGE TO GARDEN: USING COMPOST TO REDUCE LANDFILL WASTE Landfills create big problems. Toxins in electronic refuse — old cell phones, computers, televisions, etc. — can eventually leach into the soil and groundwater, causing decades of environmental health hazards. Food scraps and green waste are covered and packed down as they decompose, a process that reduces oxygen and eventually releases methane, a gas 21 times more potent than carbon BIODIVERSITY AWARENESS: A STORY OF HOPE I came to realize the importance of biodiversity through science.
