“The Earth is what we all have in common,” said novelist and environmentalist Wendell Berry. And it is that spirit that drives this OZY Sunday Magazine, exploring how people are banding together to protect species and fight climate change. Technology is playing its part too, from drone shepherds and solar skyscrapers to lab frogs engineered to replace our appetite for real ones. But lasting change depends on brave advocates, some of whom even put their lives on the line, leading the charge.

Mothers of Reinvention
From the moment Honolulu shut down in early March 2020, restaurants and bars have valiantly swiveled to counteract the pandemic’s effects. We have had a dazzling choice of takeout (with spots such as Senia turning it into a high art), chef kits (Pai Honolulu had a creative series), and premium produce (MW Restaurant sold farmer friends’ goods). But some are reinventing the integral idea of what a restaurant is. Alejandro “Aker” Briceño, the former Nobu Honolulu pastry chef who was part of the pioneering eateries V Lounge (where he introduced the city to Neapolitan pies and Caputo flour) and Prima, returned to Honolulu in 2019 after five years with Nobu Malibu expressly to open a V Lounge 2.0 with then-partner Chris Kajioka. They were negotiating a lease when the pandemic hit. “It changed everything. Financially it didn’t make sense,” Briceño says.
If you learned from Lynda Garvinâs column in the News-Bulletin last week that âApril Means Earth Day,â did you know that this special celebration started 51 years ago, on April 22, 1970?
Today, Earth Day reminds us of our duty to recognize the fragility of our natural world. Earth Day also invites us to celebrate the beauty of our world, while asking us to imagine a healthy planet, to contribute meaningfully to solutions and to make all of our days Earth Day.
The theme of this yearâs Earth Day is âRestore our Earth.â Across the globe scientists, nonprofits, businesses, governments and individuals are examining natural system processes and emerging green technologies to restore the worldâs ecosystems and forests, conserve and rebuild soils, improve farming practices, restore wildlife populations, and reduce the burden of plastic from our oceans, lakes and waterways.
