Karlos Edmonds plans for his greatest climate protest action yet—to illegally plant trees in New York City’s Central Park—even after getting arrested 12 times in the last year. With the 50th anniversary of Earth Day coming up, he is well on his way to building his protest army until a worldwide pandemic threatens to cancel mass gatherings. But what at first seems like a downfall of his plans, becomes an opportunity for others to plant trees in their own homes, fulfilling Edmonds' vision of helping make a greener earth in a non-radical way.

Brittany Baccari is raising what she calls a celebrity dog. Her dog, Kiki, was most recently on an Emmy-nominated Netflix show, “It’s Bruno” and has made appearances on several smaller pieces. And now, Baccari is determined to make the dog famous by taking her to more auditions and by growing its Instagram page. Right now, Kiki has only 317 followers, but perhaps a photoshoot with her professional photographer boyfriend might help.
