 This year’s Earth Day theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,’ focuses on mobilizing communities to action.

In the Loop checks in with local conservationists to ask how Chicagoans can make a meaningful impact and work together to protect our food, land and wildlife.

At the table: Nitya Jakka, a Chicago organizer at the Eat for Impact initiative, Seth Magle, senior director of Urban Wildlife Institute at the Lincoln Park Zoo and Gina Roxas, citizen of the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation and executive director of Trickster Cultural Center.
