The Much-anticipated Experience was Meticulously Designed to Ignite a Passion for Elephant Conservation

SAN DIEGO, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the San Diego Zoo Safari Park celebrated the official opening of the all-new Denny Sanford Elephant Valley. Park guests were invited to experience the much-anticipated space for the first time following an opening ceremony with San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance leaders and government officials. The ceremony included remarks from San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria and San Diego Councilmember Marni van Wilpert. Other city and community leaders including Escondido Mayor Dane White were in attendance.

Now open, Elephant Valley has been meticulously designed to generate greater empathy, understanding and appreciation for elephants, while igniting a desire to protect them and their native habitats. Surrounded by African savanna elephants on multiple sides, guests of all ages will encounter what it feels like to share common ground with the herd. Walking beside the world’s largest land mammal, they will notice the intricacies of the elephants’ wrinkled skin and long eyelashes, and create a connection with one of the most powerful, sensitive, and complex animals on the planet. Walking over the bridge to reach the other side of the valley, visitors will notice an elephant passageway directly beneath their feet. This underpass is similar to wildlife corridors in native habitats.

“If you talk to any of our experts here today or throughout our Alliance, they will tell you that conservation is a long-term commitment. Victories and successes are built on years, decades of focused efforts and research, and meaningful collaboration,” said Shawn Dixon, president and chief executive officer, San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. “Elephant Valley not only mirrors the African grasslands—it represents the vital role San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance plays in international conservation.”

The Safari Park’s elephant herd consists of eight individuals: matriarch Swazi, Ndlulamitsi (Ndlula), Umngani, Qinisa (Nisa), Phakamile (Kami), Khosi, Mkhaya and Umzula-Zuli (Zuli). The herd’s founding members, Swazi, Ndlula and Umngani, were rescued in 2003. Elephant Valley is an immersive journey for guests to learn about the crucial role elephants serve as ecosystem engineers and better understand the nuances of the herd’s rich social structure.

At the heart of Elephant Valley is the two-story restaurant Mkutano House. Inspired by the rich and varied culinary traditions across Africa’s many regions and blending them with global influences, the restaurant offers a harmonious fusion of familiar flavors with bold notes. The Swahili word Mkutano refers to gathering with purpose. Mkutano House is uniquely positioned directly alongside one of Elephant Valley’s two expansive watering holes, a 240,000-gallon oasis where the herd wades, swims and plays—a profound experience for those who pay witness to their natural bonding behavior. Nearby, Mkutano Park serves as a gathering place to learn from educators about the awe-inspiring wildlife of the region.

“I am so proud to see Elephant Valley become one with the Safari Park today,” said Pat McTigue, interim executive director, San Diego Zoo Safari Park. “A central component of this transformative space is community. Visiting Elephant Valley gives us chance to celebrate the wonders of nature together, whether it’s the African savanna or the San Pasqual Valley. I’m excited to see how this space inspires our community to protect and connect with wildlife and wild places for years to come.”

The Elephant Valley experience will shine a spotlight on San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance’s global conservation partners and celebrate the vibrant cultures and local communities in Kenya where people and elephants coexist. Vibrantly beaded talking sticks representing traditional Samburu artistry are unique location markers and storytelling stopping points throughout Elephant Valley. Mkutano House is adorned with stunning artifacts hand made by BeadWORKS Kenya artisans. San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance is proud to partner with BeadWORKS Kenya, a social enterprise of Northern Rangelands Trust. BeadWORKS helps women artisans in seminomadic, pastoralist communities earn a reliable income using traditional beading skills passed down through generations.

The rich plant life in Elephant Valley has been curated by a team of expert horticulturists and arborists to authentically replicate the sights, sounds and smells of Africa’s diverse ecosystems, specifically the vast savanna and grasslands. More than 350 individual plants have been grown for Elephant Valley, representing rare and endangered African plants.

Elephant Valley bridges the vital work happening in San Diego to the collaborative elephant conservation initiatives San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance supports in the African savanna. African savanna elephants are currently listed as Endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species due in large part to the rise of human-elephant conflict across range countries. Research conducted in Africa and with the Safari Park’s elephant herd provide an opportunity to advance technologies and approaches to monitor and protect elephants in the wild, and support coexistence. Increasing knowledge of elephant health needs and the complexity of their social behaviors has equipped the organization and its partners with valuable insight into what successful conservation outcomes look like for the species.

San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance is grateful for the more than 5,200 donors who have made Elephant Valley possible, including a lead gift from Denny Sanford and foundational gifts given by Stephanie Petersen, the Warren Family Foundation, Marian Frank, Gisela Hill, Nelson Millsberg, Frank and Linda Riolo, Lisa and Wayne Stelmar, Tisha Hunte Wheat, and Betty Jo Williams.

The Safari Park, spanning 1,800 acres in Escondido, California, is home to over 3,000 animals representing more than 290 species. This one-of-a-kind destination offers guests of all ages the opportunity to strengthen their connection to wildlife and the natural world. Elephant Valley is included with Safari Park admission.

GRETNA, Neb., March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What can homeowners gain by upgrading to an energy-efficient HVAC system? According to a HelloNation article, Ben Fleck of GP Fleck & Sons Heating & Air Conditioning explains how a modern system can lower utility bills, improve comfort, and support healthier indoor living. His insights help homeowners understand why an energy-efficient HVAC system offers both immediate and long-term advantages.

The article notes that heating and cooling often make up a large portion of household energy use. An energy-efficient HVAC system is designed to deliver steady temperatures while using less power. Fleck explains that features such as variable-speed motors, smart thermostats, and high-efficiency compressors allow the system to adjust output based on real-time demand. This reduces wasted energy and lowers monthly costs, especially during the hottest and coldest months.

Comfort also improves with a modern setup. Older systems tend to cycle on and off, creating uneven temperatures and weak airflow. A newer energy-efficient HVAC system runs longer at lower speeds, keeping temperatures consistent while improving airflow and humidity control. For many families, this leads to a more stable and comfortable indoor environment throughout the year.

Indoor air quality is another key benefit. Many newer systems include advanced filtration and better ventilation to help remove dust, allergens, and excess moisture. Fleck notes that these features can support healthier breathing, especially for people with allergies or respiratory issues.

Environmental impact is also an important factor. By using less electricity or fuel, an energy-efficient HVAC system helps reduce carbon emissions. For homeowners aiming to make their household more sustainable, this upgrade offers a meaningful step toward lower energy use.

Financial incentives provide additional support. Rebates, tax credits, and utility-sponsored programs can offset part of the upfront cost and improve long-term savings.

The article, The Benefits of an Energy-Efficient HVAC System, features insights from Ben Fleck, HVAC Expert of Gretna, NE, in HelloNation.

The 2026 REMADE^® Circular Economy Tech Summit & Conference Will Convene Next Week in Washington, DC

ROCHESTER, N.Y., March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The REMADE Institute^®, a 150+ member public-private partnership established in collaboration with the United States Department of Energy (DOE), is pleased to announce that presentations on nearly 50 innovations to increase the reuse, remanufacturing, recovery and recycling of critical and key materials will be featured next week at the 2026 REMADE® Circular Economy Technology Summit & Conference.

The nearly 50 presentations are based on, and detailed in, peer-reviewed research papers covering a range of novel technologies, including efforts in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to advance a Circular Economy in the U.S.

The 2026 conference, which is organized by REMADE in partnership with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, will take place next Wednesday and Thursday, March 11-12, 2026, at the National Academy of Sciences Building, 2101 Constitution Ave., N.W., in Washington, D.C.

“In addition to the 50 innovations, our conference will feature renowned global experts as keynoters and panelists,” said REMADE CEO Nabil Nasr. “These experts represent industry, academia, leading government and scientific agencies, and more. Industry innovators, academic and national laboratory researchers, business and NGO leaders, policymakers, as well as others interested in advancing a Circular Economy are strongly encouraged to attend this national thought leadership event.”

A detailed conference agenda is available here: 2026 Agenda – REMADE Institute.

The annual REMADE conference attracts hundreds of attendees and advances the conversation on how a circular approach can benefit nations, including the U.S., in meeting their multiple energy, environmental, manufacturing competitiveness, supply chain resilience, and economic growth goals. The event highlights technologies capable of increasing the reuse, remanufacturing, recovery and recycling of critical and key materials in U.S. manufacturing.

The 2026 REMADE conference will feature several high-level keynote speakers and expert panel discussions in addition to the 50 paper presentations. Panel topics include critical minerals and rare earths recovery and recycling; textiles recycling; and the importance of university-based research and innovation.

Keynoters include:

• Paul Ekins, Professor of Resources and Environmental Policy, University College London Institute for Sustainable Resources, in the United Kingdom, and lead coordinating author of the recently released UN Environment Programme (UNEP) International Resource Panel (IRP) report, “Financing the Responsible Supply of Energy Transition Minerals for Sustainable Development”
• John Shegerian, CEO of ERI, the largest electronics recycler in the U.S.
• Heinz Schandl, Senior Science Leader, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), in Australia
• Nancy Bocken, Professor in Sustainable Business & Circular Economy, Maastricht University, in the Netherlands
• Billy Frank, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Remanufacturing Division, Caterpillar Inc.
• Jeff Pacuska, Lead – Office of Future Technology Transition, U.S. Army DEVCOM Solder Center
• Nabil Nasr, CEO, REMADE Institute, and Associate Provost, Academic Affairs, and Director, Golisano Institute for Sustainability, Rochester Institute of Technology

“Economic growth and more resilient supply chains would be well served by strong moves towards a Circular Economy,” said Ekins, who will provide a broad overview of the concept in his keynote talk. “This is particularly true for the critical minerals that are at the heart of so many important modern technologies.”

“We’ve rarely been at such a crucial crossroads as we are now,” said Shegerian, who will discuss the vital need for increased electronics recycling in his keynote. “It is critical we ensure that there is a safe and secure supply of the critical minerals needed to power our future. Responsible circularity and the efficient recovery of rare earths is the solution, and I’m honored to have been invited to share insights and participate in these important discussions alongside my industry colleagues at the REMADE Institute and their esteemed lineup of expert speakers at the Circular Economy Tech Summit & Conference in Washington. Our friends at REMADE continue to produce vitally important impact events, and this timely and informative gathering is no exception.”

Schandl, who like Ekins and Nasr is a member of UNEP’s IRP, will present a case study on Australia as part of his keynote. He believes a circular approach can benefit not only industry, but everyone.

“At its core, the circular economy is a productivity strategy: restoring value in material use systems, strengthening economic competitiveness, and easing cost-of-living pressures,” Schandl said.

“Industry is getting better at recycling,” Bocken said. “While this is an important circular economy strategy, we need to prioritize the acceleration of advanced circular strategies: reduce, reuse and regeneration. In this way, the pace of resource use can be slowed and natural systems that have been exploited for our unsustainable production and consumption patterns can be restored and enhanced.”

Bocken will cover these important issues in her keynote presentation, “Accelerating Advanced Circular Business Models.”

In his keynote, Billy Frank, vice president of sales and marketing for Caterpillar’s Remanufacturing Division, will share insights on the company’s Circular Economy journey. Caterpillar is one of the world’s leading remanufacturers.

“For more than 50 years, Caterpillar has built a proud remanufacturing legacy, delivering value to our customers by extending the life of their products and lowering their total cost of ownership,” Frank said. “Today, we remain just as focused on serving our customers, supporting the Circular Economy and living our purpose of building a better, more sustainable world.”

The 2026 REMADE Circular Economy Technology Summit & Conference is open to REMADE members, non-members, and all of those interested in increasing the reuse, remanufacturing, recovery and recycling of critical and key materials. Members of the media are also welcome to attend.
