SUMMARY:Changemaker Speaker Series Keith Ladzinski:  Forces of Nature
DESCRIPTION:In Forces of Nature\, National Geographic photographer and Emmy‑nominated director Keith Ladzinski explores the raw beauty\, volatility\, and interconnectedness of the natural world. Presented as part of the Changemaker Speaker Series\, this evening pairs immersive visuals with firsthand storytelling drawn from decades spent documenting the planet’s most extreme environments. \nLadzinski’s work has taken him from storm‑chasing across Tornado Alley to first ascents in interior Antarctica\, free diving with alligators in the Florida Everglades\, and scaling ancient redwood forests. Through images captured at the edge of human endurance\, he reveals both the power of nature and humanity’s responsibility to protect it. \nA founding member of the Sea Legacy Collective and co‑founder of Triage Creative\, Ladzinski is a three‑time Telly Award winner with two Emmy nominations. His photographs and films have appeared in National Geographic\, The New York Times\, and The Washington Post\, offering a compelling perspective on conservation\, climate\, and adventure. \nPresented in association with Aspen Center for Environmental Studies

SUMMARY:Changemaker Speaker Series Casey Anderson: Among Wild Predators
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Changemaker Speaker Series\, wildlife filmmaker and National Geographic explorer Casey Anderson brings audiences face‑to‑face with the animals most people avoid: grizzlies\, mountain lions\, tigers\, and other apex predators. Drawing on three decades in the field—including being charged\, bitten\, clawed\, stung\, and even raising a grizzly bear—Anderson pairs breathtaking imagery with deeply personal stories that challenge long‑held myths about “dangerous” wildlife. \nAmong Wild Predators is both an adventure and a reframing: predators as vital\, intelligent beings—and as mirrors of our own courage\, empathy\, and survival instincts. At 26 he adopted an orphaned cub and later co‑founded Montana Grizzly Encounter\, a sanctuary for bears rescued from inhumane situations. A familiar presence across Nat Geo WILD\, BBC\, PBS\, and Discovery\, Anderson translates close‑range encounters into insight about coexistence\, risk\, and respect for the wild. \nPresented in association with Aspen Center for Environmental Studies
