While emissions often dominate the sustainability conversation, today we’re shifting the spotlight to an issue just as critical—water. With climate change intensifying droughts and disrupting global water cycles, it’s time we talk about solutions that are as innovative as they are essential.

On this episode of The Resilience Report, we’re joined by Tatiana Estevez, founder and CEO of Permalution—a climate tech company pioneering the use of fog and cloud harvesting as a viable, scalable water source. From explaining how Permalution’s technology works to illustrating its impact through powerful on-the-ground stories, Tatiana brings clarity to a topic that’s both deeply technical and deeply human.

We explore how fog harvesting could reshape global water security, what “democratizing access to water” really means, and how Permalution is already supplying water to vulnerable communities around the world. Tatiana also opens up about the funding realities of building a cleantech startup, her work empowering women in tech through her nonprofit Tech Quiero, and her long-term vision for water resilience that is as community-driven as it is forward-looking.

Today, we are honored to welcome award-winning filmmaker and environmental activist Rebecca Tickell. Alongside her husband, Josh Tickell, Rebecca has spent decades telling stories that have sparked global movements—from FUEL and The Big Fix, to The Earthing Movie and, of course, the breakout hit Kiss the Ground.

Now, she’s back with a powerful follow-up: Common Ground—a Tribeca award-winning documentary featuring voices like Jason Momoa, Laura Dern, Rosario Dawson, and Donald Glover. The film peels back the layers of our broken food system and shines a light on the farmers—Black, Indigenous, and White—who are leading a new agricultural revolution.

In this conversation, Rebecca shares what regenerative agriculture really means, why storytelling is her vehicle for change, and how we can all make more conscious choices without losing heart in the process.

This might very well be one of the most important conversations we have had on The Resilience Report since launching over two years ago. As Rebecca shares: "Each one of us can help restore our local ecosystem. Or we could help restore an entire province or state or an entire region or country. I mean, that's the power that these conversations have and that each one of us has. That’s why it’s so exciting — because we are on the forefront of this movement, and those who step in right now are going to see tremendous change."
