En el sur de Bogotá, en la localidad de Ciudad Bolivar, hayun sitio mágico. Se llega por medio de un telesferico llamado TransmiCable, y se aloja en la base de una de sus estaciones. Al entrar, puedes dejar tus hijos – los que te pasas en lacasa sola cuidando – en la guardería, antes de entrar a clases para adultos para terminar tu bachillerato. Para quienes lograron terminar sus estudios, pueden tomar clases técnicas de capacitación para conseguir empleo, recibir apoyo jurídico o psicosocial. Si eres vítima de violencias, acá encontrarasayuda. O simplemente puedes parchar un rato mientras lavas la ropa de tu familia en una de las lavanderías gratis.Lo se, porque he estado ahí, en una de las llamadas Manzanasdel Cuidado de Bogotá. Me sentí transportada a un mundo donde el cuidado  - o para decirlo en terminos marxistas-feministas, la reproducción social – por fin ha empezado a recibir el reconocimiento que se merece.  En Bogotá, las mujeres dedican en promedio 6 horas y 43 minutos diarios al trabajo de cuidad no pago; en este lugar, se busca apoyarlas en ese cuidado, y devolverles un poco de ese tiempo. Aunque no dudo que tengan sus imperfecciones, sinceramente sentí ahí que era una ventanita a la utopía. No se ve como una revolución dramática y extravagante – se ve como un lugar donde se reconoce y apoya la dignidad de lo cotidiano.   Hoy vamos a hablar de estas Manzanas del Cuidado y delSistema del que forman parte. Para ello, entrevisto a dos profesoras quienes han estado liderando un proyecto que mira la historia y actual implementación del Sistema, como verán.  María José (o Majo) Alvarez es profesora Titular deSociología en la Unviersidad de los Andes. Combina métodos cuantitativos y cualitativos para entender la desigualdad social, y las políticas que la pueden disminuir.  Es autora del libro Política en los Margenes, sobre la historia de la ciudad informal en Montevideo, y Costly Opportunities, sobre la movilidad social en sociedades segregadas. Friederike Fleischer es profesora asociada de Antropología,también en los Andes. Su trabajo en antropología urbana en China y Colombia se enfoca en procesos de estratificación socioeconómica y especial y sus libros publicados incluyen «Suburban Beijing», «Soup, Love, and a ‘Helping Hand': Social Support in Guangzhou, China» (Berghahn, 2018).

Un pensamiento ambiental complejo que cuestiona las simplificaciones sobre Colombia: Julio Carrizosa Umaña, exministro de Ambiente e investigador por más de cinco décadas en asuntos ambientales, conversa sobre su libro Colombia compleja. ¿Por qué Colombia ha sido tan difícil de gobernar? ¿Por qué ningún poder central ha logrado ejercer autoridad plena sobre todo el territorio? La respuesta, dice, está en la complejidad ecosistémica: tres cordilleras, dos océanos, abundancia de agua y cenizas volcánicas que han hecho posible que la población crezca y se disperse, que los pueblos encuentren refugio y sustento. Contra los pesimismos y optimismos dogmáticos, señala logros extraordinarios construidos en medio de la guerra: los parques nacionales, la Universidad Nacional, espacios como el Parque Explora. “La gran mayoría de la gente en Colombia es extraordinariamente buena”, afirma. Julio Carrizosa Umaña (Bogotá, 1935) es ingeniero civil de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia, máster en Administración Pública de Harvard y magíster en Economía de la Universidad de los Andes. Fue director del Instituto Geográfico Agustín Codazzi (1969-1973). Lideró la creación de 17 parques nacionales naturales y participó en la redacción del Código Nacional de Recursos Naturales de 1974. Cofundador y director del Instituto de Estudios Ambientales (IDEA) de la Universidad Nacional, ha desarrollado durante más de cinco décadas el concepto de “visión ambiental compleja”, que integra las dimensiones ecológicas, sociales e históricas para comprender los problemas del país. Entre sus obras destacan ¿Qué es ambientalismo? La visión ambiental compleja, Colombia: de lo imaginario a lo complejo y Colombia compleja. En 2010 recibió el Premio Nacional al Mérito Científico en la categoría Vida y Obra.

El Senado argentino examina este miércoles un proyecto de modificación de la ley de protección de glaciares. El presidente Milei, que niega el cambio climático, busca flexibilizar la norma en beneficio de la industria minera, prometiendo proyectos millonarios de explotación de oro y cobre. Pero organizaciones ecologistas y habitantes temen el sacrificio de reservas hídricas vitales "por un par de monedas". Reportaje de nuestro corresponsal en Argentina, Théo Conscience.   Estamos en la provincia de San Juan, en la quebrada de San Lorenzo, a más de 4.000 metros de altitud. "Es un lugar encantador de los Andes áridos entre Argentina y Chile", dice Silvio Pastore, coordinador del Gabinete de Estudios de Glaciología, Nivología y Cambio Climático de la Universidad de San Juan. El viento sopla fuerte, pero el oxígeno se hace más escaso. Respirar y hablar ya cuesta un poco más. Alrededor hay montañas de color ocre, rojizo, marrón. Y arriba, un manchón blanco: el glaciar de San Lorenzo. "El paisaje es espectacular porque estamos arriba de un glaciar de escombro. Lo que vemos hacia el fondo es el límite internacional con Chile, el famoso límite divisorio de aguas, con un glaciarete que drena sus aguas hacia el territorio argentino", agrega Silvio Pastore. El glaciarete al que se refiere está cubierto de penitentes, formaciones de hielo características de los Andes, que toman la forma de cuchillas afiladas orientadas hacia el cielo. "Está tipificado como un glaciar, pero hoy la situación es que se ha llenado de penitentes, como lo podemos observar. Eso significa que ya está en un proceso continuo de degradación. Y, en tiempo humano, vamos a ver que esto va a desaparecer casi totalmente". El gobierno planea modificar la ley de los glaciares  En los últimos 30 años, Argentina perdió el 42 % de la superficie de sus glaciares por culpa del calentamiento global. Desde 2010, los 17.000 cuerpos de hielo inventariados y los suelos congelados del ambiente periglacial están protegidos y reconocidos por ley como reservas estratégicas de agua. Pero el gobierno del presidente Javier Milei quiere modificar la ley para dejar que las provincias definan qué zonas deben protegerse, con el objetivo de abrir la puerta a la industria minera. Y, sin embargo, estamos rodeados de una gran riqueza, como una roca que le muestro a Pastore. "Esto que vemos aquí es una composición mineralógica extraordinaria. Esta variedad de colores, de textura… Esta está llena de cristales indicadores de minerales. No sé si los ves, algunos de ellos brillan. Tómale el peso. Es muy pesada. Tiene una densidad que lo que va a dar esta densidad son sulfuros o contenidos de metales, principalmente cobre, oro, plata, zinc". Para Silvio Pastore, la presencia de estos minerales plantea un dilema. Las zonas periglaciales de San Juan son ricas en cobre, un mineral clave para la transición energética y para la lucha contra el calentamiento global que agobia los glaciares. Para el científico, hay que aclarar y flexibilizar la ley de protección de glaciares. "Esta zona que te estoy mostrando es un ambiente periglacial. La ley actual prohíbe la actividad en este ambiente. Pero yo puedo observar, a simple vista, y demostrar con metodología científica, que gran parte de estos cerros que están aflorando no contienen ni agua ni hielo. Pero es un ambiente periglacial. Su significancia hídrica es mínima, comparada, en la misma área, con estos glaciares blancos o glaciares de escombro. Lógicamente, hay sectores en los cuales no se va a poder hacer ninguna actividad, de ningún tipo, pero hay sectores que pueden ser liberados". A pesar de pertenecer a una agrupación del lobby minero, el Grupo Sarmiento, Silvio Pastore dice que no quiere hacer política. Asegura que solo quiere aportar datos científicos al debate público. Pero sus posiciones han sido cuestionadas por otros glaciólogos, incluso en su propia universidad. Juan Pablo Milana, doctor en geofísica e investigador del Conicet, considera que la modificación de la ley propuesta por el gobierno es peligrosa. "Esa modificación deja a criterio de las provincias la posibilidad de desclasificar glaciares. Y el problema es que los criterios están a la venta. Entonces, si hay mucho interés del gobierno de que ocurra una explotación minera, dentro de la universidad siempre vas a encontrar a alguien que diga: 'este glaciar no sirve porque tiene poco hielo, contribuye poco, o lo que sea'". Sacrificar una reserva hídrica por unas monedas  Este científico denuncia que el gobierno quiere cambiar el espíritu de la ley de protección de glaciares, pasando de un criterio de tipo científico a uno político, a la hora de definir lo que es una reserva estratégica de agua. "Este es el problema de utilizar la palabra 'estratégico'. Porque a lo mejor para la provincia es mucho más estratégica esta explotación minera porque va a sacar muchos más impuestos, va a dar más trabajo. Pero, a la larga, es pan para hoy y hambre para mañana. Estás sacrificando una reserva hídrica por unas monedas”. El tema es que estos minerales representan mucho más que unas monedas. Con la incertidumbre del contexto geopolítico actual, el valor del oro y de la plata viene marcando récords históricos. Y el cobre también: el metal rojo es un muy buen conductor. Entre vehículos eléctricos, paneles solares y turbinas eólicas, la demanda explotó estos últimos años, y el precio también. En la cordillera sanjuanina, las multinacionales Lundin Mining (canadiense) y BHP (australiana) impulsan una de las iniciativas mineras más grandes del mundo: el proyecto Vicuña. Tiene reservas estimadas en 35 millones de onzas de oro y 12 millones de toneladas de cobre. Iván Grgic, responsable de relaciones institucionales de Vicuña y presidente de la Cámara de Minería de San Juan, evoca algunos de esos proyectos. "Hay proyectos mineros en distintas etapas. Tenemos dos proyectos… podríamos decir cuatro de cobre en etapa avanzada de exploración. Entonces, cuando el mundo dice '¡cobre, por favor!', San Juan está casi lista para empezar a vender cobre". Chile y el cobre, ¿fuente de inspiración para Argentina?  Iván Grgic destaca el potencial que representa la minería para la provincia y para el país en términos de empleo y de inversiones. Para él, Argentina tiene que inspirarse en Chile, primer exportador de cobre a nivel mundial. "Una frase que me decía mi papá cuando era chico: no te olvides que lo que está del otro lado de la cordillera está de este lado. Si Chile exporta entre 50 y 60 mil millones de dólares al año, Argentina también puede exportar esa cantidad. O sea que podemos generar al país rápidamente un desarrollo muy grande porque el mundo lo requiere y con la seguridad de que lo que estamos iniciando es un desarrollo inmenso para el país, y sin embargo todavía incipiente". Los proyectos mineros de la provincia de San Juan ya atrajeron más de 17 mil millones de dólares de inversión a través del RIGI, el régimen de incentivo a las grandes inversiones impulsado por Javier Milei. Pero para que estas inversiones puedan materializarse y multiplicarse, la ley de protección de glaciares tiene que flexibilizarse, sostiene Iván Grgic. "Todos estos proyectos están avanzando porque entienden que hay seguridad jurídica. Es decir, tú tomas una propiedad minera en donde vos te encontrás con crioformas inventariadas, en donde los estudios iniciales de los proyectos mineros determinan que no tienen aporte hídrico, que no son glaciares ni son crioformas a custodiar. Pero no pueden avanzar en ningún tipo de exploración hasta que la ley no les determine. Entonces, esas inversiones o intereses han quedado latentes". "Jáchal no se toca" Este es justamente el caso del proyecto Vicuña, cuyo futuro open pit, o tajo a cielo abierto, se encontraría en parte sobre un glaciar registrado en el inventario nacional, el GE 110. La empresa quiere desclasificarlo, pero la población local se resiste. "Nosotros desde la asamblea "Jáchal no se toca" generamos, con asesoramiento técnico apropiado, un reclamo en el año 2021”, dice Saúl Zeballos, integrante de la asamblea "Jáchal no se toca". "Ese reclamo fue atendido y fue incorporado al inventario nacional de glaciares. Cuatro años después, estamos peleando nuevamente para que no lo hagan desaparecer al glaciar GE 110". "Jáchal no se toca" es un grupo de vecinos autoconvocados que se reúne todas las semanas en una carpa instalada en la plaza del pueblo con la misión de preservar el río Jáchal. Carolina Caliva, integrante de la asamblea, dice: "Sabiamente, nuestros pueblos originarios se asentaron al lado de un río. Nosotros vivimos en una zona árida. Si no tuviésemos agua, no existiría este pueblo". Los glaciares funcionan como reguladores del recurso hídrico. En las zonas áridas como San Juan, compensan el déficit de precipitaciones. La provincia declaró la emergencia hídrica hace tres años, y los habitantes padecen cada vez más la escasez de agua. "Nosotros ya sufrimos los cortes de agua por días. Hasta perdemos la dignidad. A ver, no tenemos agua para el baño, no tenemos agua para las necesidades básicas. A veces uno abre la canilla y piensa que nunca se va a acabar. Pero cuando padecés esta escasez, hace que uno tome conciencia", denuncia Carolina Caliva. Carolina Caliva y los integrantes de la asamblea ya no creen en las promesas de la industria minera. Hace 20 años que conviven con la mina de oro a cielo abierto de Veladero, propiedad de la empresa canadiense Barrick Gold. "Dejaron contaminación, enfermedad y muerte"  "Venían con el discursito del pleno empleo, del desarrollo sustentable. Ahora está claro que nuestro pueblo sigue tan pobre o más pobre que antes. Y si nos dejan algo, nos dejan contaminación, enfermedad y muerte", subraya Carolina Caliva. Carolina Caliva se refiere a los escándalos de contaminación ambiental por parte de la mina Veladero. "En el 2015 se produce el derrame más grande de la historia de Argentina, por parte de la empresa Barrick Gold. Miles de litros de solución cianurada que afectan a cinco ríos; y ahí ya se ve totalmente modificada nuestra vida". Este derrame y los siguientes impactaron profundamente al pueblo, que depende exclusivamente del río Jáchal para su agricultura. "Acá tenemos alfalfa", dice Omar Aciar, productor, mostrando sus tierras agrietadas por la sequía. "Tenemos otro cuadro ahí de algodón. Y tenemos algo de cebolla también. Eso es básicamente para lo que nos alcanza el agua, nada más". Este productor denuncia el consumo y la contaminación del agua por parte de la industria minera. "Los yacimientos mineros sacan el agua dulce. Entonces acá, cada vez viene el agua más salinizada. Mucho más boro, mucho más arsénico. Entonces ya los crecimientos de las mismas plantas no son iguales. Y ahora se complica porque cada vez tenemos menos agua para el regadío". Por falta de agua, Omar solo pudo sembrar 60 de las 100 hectáreas de su explotación este año. Está muy preocupado por el avance de la minería. El proyecto Vicuña necesitará un promedio anual de 1.200 litros de agua por segundo, 10 veces más que el consumo actual de toda la industria minera en la provincia. "Al paso que van las concesiones de agua para la minería, nosotros estimamos que en 10 años no vamos a poder hacer agricultura acá en Jáchal. Si eso ocurre, moriríamos como pueblo. ¿Qué le dejamos a nuestros hijos? Yo tengo nietos, unos nietos chicos. ¿Y dónde nos vamos nosotros? Ya no tenemos agua potable para el consumo humano, se están secando los pozos. No hay recargas. ¡¿Cómo vamos a sacrificar los glaciares?! Es una cosa muy evidente que el agua es la vida". Agricultores, organizaciones ecologistas y poblaciones locales están juntando fuerzas para resistir el avance de la industria minera en los Andes. A lo largo de la cordillera, ciudadanos se organizan en asambleas populares con una consigna: el agua vale más que el oro, la ley de glaciares no se toca.

 Starting in the autumn of 2025, the US began attacking small civilian boats in or near Venezuelan waters, summarily executing over 126 people. January, 2026 began with it kidnapping Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife, and bringing them to the US. This month, just weeks after the kidnapping, Haymarket Books published the immensely useful and urgent book, Venezuela in Crisis. The historical range of the book begins with the regime of Hugo Chavez and ends with the 2024 elections in Venezuela.We are immensely fortunate to be able to speak with the editor and translator of this collection of essays, Anderson Bean, and two of its contributors, Emiliano Terán and Simón Rodríguez.  The key argument of the book is that, even by his own admission, Chavez was not able to completely transform Venezuela into a socialist state. The book explains the roots of this failure, despite the inspiring successes of Chavismo. It then tracks an ever-increasing neoliberal and oppressive trend carried forward by Maduro, which is characterized by burgeoning extractivism, corruption, and suppression of human rights.  We end by calling on socialists and progressives everywhere to resist the tendency to side with Maduro's false claims to socialism, and to focus instead on building solidarity with the people of Venezuela.Anderson Bean is a sociology professor at North Carolina A&T State University, a member of the Tempest Collective, and a North Carolina–based activist and editor. He is a contributor to Venezuela in Crisis: Socialist Perspectives (Haymarket Books) and the author of Communes and the Venezuelan State: The Struggle for Participatory Democracy in a Time of Crisis (Lexington Books).Simón Rodríguez is a Venezuelan socialist writer and journalist. He was a student organizer and later became professor at the Universidad de los Andes. When he was a member of the national leadership of the Socialism and Freedom Party, he ran as a candidate for the National Assembly in 2015. He is a founding member of Laclase.info and Venezuelanvoices.org and has published articles in Humania del Sur, NACLA Report on the Americas, The New Arab, and Rebelión and on dozens of electronic outlets, and his articles have been translated into six languages. He has given talks and lectures in Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. He is coauthor with Miguel Sorans of the book Why Did Chavismo Fail? A Left-Opposition Balance Sheet.Emiliano Terán is a sociologist from the Central University of Venezuela and has a master's degree in ecological economics from the Autonomous University of Barcelona. He is a PhD candidate in environmental science and technology at the same institution. He is also an associate researcher at the Center for Development Studies in Venezuela and a member of the Observatory of Political Ecology of Venezuela   

In this unflinching episode of the Crux True Survival Story Podcast, hosts Kaycee McIntosh and Julie Henningsen delve into one of history's most harrowing survival stories. On October 13, 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 slammed into the Andes Mountains, leaving 33 survivors stranded at 12,000 feet in subzero temperatures. For 72 days, they battled avalanches, frostbite, and starvation. When their meager supplies ran out, they faced an unthinkable decision: consume the dead or die themselves. This episode chronicles the psychological torment, the impossible moral choices, and the superhuman trek of two survivors who walked ten days through the frozen mountains to find rescue. A raw testament to human resilience and the terrifying price of survival. 00:00 Welcome and Housekeeping 01:25 Introducing the Podcast 01:48 Setting the Scene: The Andes Flight Disaster 02:08 The Crash 03:11 Immediate Aftermath 04:05 Struggle for Survival 15:55 The Search is Called Off 18:16 Facing the Unthinkable 20:06 The Grim Reality of Survival 21:01 A Desperate Decision 23:35 The Psychological Toll 25:44 Avalanche Strikes Again 27:18 A Daring Escape Plan 28:38 Journey Through the Mountains 35:36 Rescue and Aftermath 39:22 Legacy of Survival Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ Check out our website! www.thecruxsurvival.com REFERENCES Primary Sources: Alive: The Story of the Andes Survivors by Piers Paul Read (1974) Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home by Nando Parrado (2006) Out of the Silence: After the Crash by Eduardo Strauch (2019) Technical Documentation: Official Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 accident investigation reports Medical journals documenting survivors' conditions upon rescue Geographic surveys of crash site location Aviation records and flight data Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Are you being pulled in a thousand directions by the people you care about? Are you questioning who you are and where you’re going? The way you’ve been living is not sustainable. You are not burned out because you're weak. You're tired because you're carrying intensity that your old tools were never designed to hold. More is being asked of us than ever before. More responsibility. More emotional labor. More truth. More fire. And now, the temperature is rising even higher with the Fire Horse entering on February 17, 2026. Every 60 years, the Fire Horse brings transformative yang energy that either purifies or overwhelms. The last Fire Horse was 1966 – a year that brought massive cultural shifts, breakthroughs in consciousness, and radical change. Astrologically, this means that the pressure is building and it’s likely to get more intense in 2026 than it already has been. You don’t have to know a lot about astrology to see for yourself that the old strategies of numbing, pushing, or self-improvement will not work anymore to get you through this.

En la patagonia Chilena, el parque nacional Torres del Paine atrae cada año a miles de turistas, en gran parte extranjeros. Pero últimamente se han incrementado las expulsiones de personas que no respetan las normativas que protegen este tesoro de la naturaleza. Entre las infracciones, hacer fogatas o utilizar cocinillas en áreas prohibidas. Por Ivonne Sánchez El Parque Nacional Torres del Paine es una de las áreas silvestres protegidas más importantes de Chile, con sus glaciares, bosques, lagos, además de su espectacular cordillera Paine. Ubicado entre la Cordillera de los Andes y la estepa Patagónica, a dos mil 700 kilómetros al sur de Santiago, este extenso territorio, de 227 mil hectáreas, atrae cada año 280 mil visantes, la gran mayoría extranjeros. Pero en los últimos años, se ha dada una alza de expulsiones de turistas, ya que no respetan las normativas que rigen esta área protegida, como por ejemplo, no hacer fogatas, o no utilizar cocinillas en zonas no habilitadas para ello. Jorge Morales es ingeniero forestal y docente en la Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH), él explicó a RFI la problemática actual: Entrevistado: Jorge Morales, exdirector regional de Conaf y académico de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Ambiente Construido de la Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH).

Ben Stookesberry paddles kayaks in his home state of Montana, and around the world. In his teen years he learned to make home movies showing off his rollerblading moves, and in college he learned to kayak. Today he blends the paddling and film making as he runs rivers in global settings. He has created deep and lasting friendships in his travels, and returns to rivers again and again, to paddle more stretches, to learn more, and sometimes to engage in protection work. In this episode, Ben talks through all of this with us, and goes into depth about his current paddling and film efforts on the Jatunyacu and Mulatos Rivers in Ecuador.GUESTSBen Stookesberry@benstookesberryBio @ KokatatBio @ Jackson KayakLatest Film:  ¡Ay Chihuahua!Diego Robles:  @ecuskayaker RESOURCESEcuadorian Rivers Institute@ecuadorianriversSteven Donzinger storySavages, book, by Joe Kane PADDLERS TO FOLLOW@ecuskayaker (Diego)@williehenkel@wyatt_doyle@salmonsourcetosea@elizabeth.tobey@brookehess@oceansandmountains (Hailey)@pedroolivakaiak@riverratmountainkat@mayuwarmikayak@teepee_boys SPONSORSDenver Area Nissan Dealers@nissanusa     THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteRunoff signup (episode newsletter)InstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin speaks with Jhaimy Alvarez-Acosta, a traditional Andean curandero from Cusco, Peru, about lineage, ceremony, and responsibility within Indigenous wisdom traditions. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-341/?ref=278  They explore Andean cosmology as a living worldview and reframe master plant work as a form of deep education rather than clinical healing. The conversation emphasizes mentorship, initiation through lived experience, and healing as a relational process rooted in land, ancestors, and community. Maestro Jhaimy Alvarez Acosta has walked the path of Andean wisdom for over thirty years, guiding ceremonies and pilgrimages throughout the Andes and internationally. His work emphasizes humility, relationship, and long-term commitment to lineage-based traditions. Highlights: Fear as a guide rather than an obstacle Initiation through lived experience Huachuma in Andean tradition Roles within Indigenous healing lineages Master plants as teachers, not tools Healing as acceptance and relationship Andean cosmology in the modern world Mentorship and community-based learning Episode Links: Children of the Seven Rays Heart of the Condor Podcast Jhaimy's Instagram Episode Sponsors: The Practitioner Certification Program by Third Wave's Psychedelic Coaching Institute.

La inteligencia artificial ya no es solo una herramienta para hacer renders más rápido o “sacar ideas” con un prompt. Hoy también empieza a meterse en la forma en que se diseñan espacios, se planifican barrios y se toman decisiones sobre cómo debe funcionar una ciudad. En teoría, la promesa es poderosa, diseñar con retroalimentación temprana, anticipar impactos ambientales, optimizar energía, y conectar creatividad con análisis técnico desde el inicio. Pero cuando el diseño se apoya en modelos entrenados con datos, también aparece la pregunta incómoda: ¿qué pasa cuando esos datos no representan a todos?En este episodio de IA, luego existo, la cuarta temporada de Clase a la Casa, nos preguntamos qué ocurre con la creatividad, la participación y la justicia espacial cuando el diseño empieza a delegarse en sistemas automatizados. ¿Puede la IA abrir el proceso creativo a más voces, o termina reforzando estéticas dominantes y formas de exclusión ya conocidas? ¿Qué tipo de ciudad se produce cuando “lo legible” para el algoritmo se vuelve la medida de lo posible?Hablamos de diseño participativo, de justicia de datos, de exclusión algorítmica y de cómo las tecnologías pueden traducir las necesidades de quienes habitan los espacios. Nuestras invitadas son Zayra Valentina Baquero, arquitecta e investigadora que trabajó una metodología de co-diseño apoyada en IA generativa, y Ana María Bustamante, profesora de Arquitectura en la Universidad de los Andes, experta en justicia de datos y planificación urbana, que ha investigado cómo los territorios pueden ser gestionados con tecnología sin perder ética, inclusión y mirada crítica.Una producción de 070 Podcasts y la Dirección de Comunicaciones de la Universidad de los Andes

#761 What if growing your home service business slower is actually the fastest path to profit and freedom? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with returning guest Mike Andes, founder of Augusta Lawn Care, to break down how home service businesses can grow without getting crushed by seasonality, overhead, or the “bigger is better” trap. Mike shares his origin story (including starting college at 13!), then dives into his practical “off-season cures” (from winter services to inverse-demand add-ons like holiday lights), how pay-for-performance compensation can drive speed and quality with the right guardrails, and why open-book management + profit sharing can align the whole team like owners. They also unpack Mike's “Copy + Paste” growth philosophy — focusing on profitability and smart capacity limits before scaling locations — plus why many operators would be better off raising prices and reducing ad dependency than endlessly chasing more revenue! What we discuss with Mike: + Solving the off-season + Five “cures” for seasonality + Winter services & subscriptions + Inverse demand add-on services + Pay-for-performance pay model + Quality control & “yellow slips” + Open-book management basics + Profit sharing incentives + Copy-and-paste growth strategy + Raising prices vs. chasing growth Thank you, Mike!

En el año 1701, los indios chiriguanos, del pueblo guaraní, navegaron el río Pilcomayo hasta llegar a la frontera del imperio de los incas. En el Valle de Salinas divisaron, maravillados, las primeras alturas de los Andes, y decidieron sentar bases. Un día aparecieron en su comarca, también después de mucho andar, los frailes franciscanos de Chuquisaca. En sus alforjas llevaban objetos extraños y fascinantes. Afortunadamente, no se hicieron rogar los mensajeros de Dios antes de abrir y mostrarles aquellos objetos. Más bien, aprovecharon el visible interés que manifestaron para comunicarles, por medio de intérpretes, que eran libros sagrados. Como aquellos indígenas nunca antes habían visto el papel, ni se les había ocurrido que lo necesitaban, no tenían en su propio idioma ninguna palabra para llamarlo. Así que cuando se enteraron de que el papel servía para enviar mensajes a los amigos que estaban lejos, decidieron ponerle por nombre «piel de Dios».1 El hecho de que los chiriguanos relacionaran el papel con la piel no tiene mayor importancia, pues desde tiempos antiguos hasta hoy se escribe y se forran libros en pergamino, que procede precisamente de la piel de animales. Pero es muy significativo que esa piel fuera la de Dios, y que la razón fuera que el papel sirve para enviar mensajes a los amigos que están lejos. Porque lo cierto es que Dios el Padre, desde el cielo lejano, envió a la tierra a su Hijo Jesucristo como su mensaje encarnado, forrado con piel humana,2 a fin de dar la vida por nosotros y así identificarse como el amigo que más nos ama. Antes de morir, Cristo dijo que «nadie tiene amor más grande que el dar la vida por sus amigos».3 Con eso nos dio a entender que su muerte serviría no sólo para salvarnos, sino también para demostrarnos que es nuestro mejor amigo. Lo que Dios espera de nosotros es que correspondamos al supremo amor de Cristo aceptando su oferta de amistad. No tenemos que hacer nada para merecerla, pero sí tenemos que aceptarla para que se haga realidad en nuestra vida. De nada nos sirve que Cristo haya dado la vida por nosotros si no le entregamos la nuestra a Él. ¿Por qué no le enviamos un mensaje de vuelta al que nos ofrece la mejor amistad del mundo? Digámosle: «Querido Señor Jesucristo, gracias por tu amor y tu amistad. Los acepto consciente de que no he hecho, ni jamás podré hacer, nada para merecerlos. Perdona todo pecado que he cometido y toda infidelidad pasada de la que sea culpable. Toma posesión completa de mi vida. Ayúdame a servirte de todo corazón y a ser fiel amigo tuyo hasta la muerte. Gracias porque, lejos de estar distante, has querido estar conmigo hasta el fin del mundo.4 Y gracias porque un día te limitaste a piel humana como la mía, para que la mía pueda un día ser glorificada como la tuya.» Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Eduardo Galeano, Memoria del fuego II: Las caras y las máscaras, 17a ed.

Every time the forecast even whispers the word “snow” down here, the grocery store turns into a zombie movie with shopping carts. Milk vanishes. Bread disappears. People act like they're about to be trapped in the Andes for six months… when the reality is usually a couple days of icy roads and everyone staying home.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by LMNT, we are joined yet again by our pal and Hall of Fame trail name holder Marla Davidson, better known as "Fancy Feast".  Fancy Feast is a wealth of knowledge and unfortunate and embarrassing stories. She shares a nasty medical mishap involving poodle dog bush on the PCT, we look back at her time with the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps, where she and other "malnourished minors" subsisted on moldy bread and Sriracha, which was presented as a vegetable.  Fancy Feast gives us an overview of her 2024 calendar hikes of the PCT and CDT, her experience navigating the Hayduke Trail with Horsepower (former guest) after he convinced her with a PowerPoint presentation, and the hilarious mismatch in hiking styles from this somewhat random pairing.  She details what it's like being a PNTA crew lead, and the challenges associated in light of funding cuts and crews being reduced to a skeleton staff.  Feast also shares standout stories from her international travels, including a "pig water" disaster in the Andes, her time at the Green Mountain Club with a persistent bear that turned her food box into a rolling pinata, and her hot takes on thru-hiker "main character energy" and entitlement.  We wrap the show with whether we'd rather have three butt cheeks or just one, the triple crown of mild yet particular icks or phobias, and the news of how one Hayduke hiker got caught in quicksand. Yes, really.  LMNT: Get a free sample pack with any order at drinklmnt.com/trek.

We will discuss how to be love, in action, in the midst of fiery reactivity. We will explore how to move beyond spiritual rhetoric to an actual embodiment of our values. We will share sacred tools for doing the transformational work of 2026, and we will support you in moving from a vision of your purpose into daily intentional practice.

Grace Under Fire – Free Live Series https://subscribepage.io/GraceUnderFire   It’s Time To Cross the Threshold Meet Your Power Differently and Ride the Fire Horse Does it feel like life is pushing you harder than usual? Are you being pulled in a thousand directions by the people you care about? Are you questioning who you are and where you’re going? The way you’ve been living is not sustainable. You are not burned out because you're weak. You're tired because you're carrying intensity that your old tools were never designed to hold. More is being asked of us than ever before. More responsibility. More emotional labor. More truth. More fire. And now, the temperature is rising even higher with the Fire Horse entering on February 17, 2026. Every 60 years, the Fire Horse brings transformative yang energy that either purifies or overwhelms. The last Fire Horse was 1966 – a year that brought massive cultural shifts, breakthroughs in consciousness, and radical change. Astrologically, this means that the pressure is building and it’s likely to get more intense in 2026 than it already has been. You don’t have to know a lot about astrology to see for yourself that the old strategies of numbing, pushing, or self-improvement will not work anymore to get you through this. You’re being invited to cross a threshold that will change how you meet life’s challenges.

As geleiras guardam a memória da evolução do clima no planeta – mas estão ameaçadas pelo aquecimento global. Na Antártida, pesquisadores de 13 países – inclusive do Brasil – começaram a abastecer o primeiro acervo glacial do mundo, para garantir a preservação desse patrimônio natural para as futuras gerações. Lúcia Müzell, da RFI em Paris As amostras que inauguraram o Santuário da Memória do Gelo (Ice Memory Sanctuary), instalado na base científica franco-italiana Concordia, foram retiradas dos Alpes. O primeiro cilindro, de 128 metros, saiu do Mont Blanc, na França, e o segundo, de 99 metros, foi extraído do Grand Combin, na Suíça. A prioridade é resguardar vestígios das geleiras que provavelmente não resistirão até o fim deste século, destruídas pelo aumento da temperatura média da Terra. "Os cilindros de gelo retirados de geleiras ameaçadas de desaparecer serão conservadas na Concordia pelas próximas décadas e séculos à frente, para estarem disponíveis para as futuras gerações de cientistas, quando essas geleiras, infelizmente, terão derretido”, indica o biologista Jérôme Fort, vice-presidente da Fundação Ice Memory e diretor de pesquisas do Centro Nacional de Pesquisas Científicas (CNRS), da França. "Elas serão um rastro da história do nosso planeta: são arquivos extraordinários não só da história do clima, como da vida na Terra.” 'Balão' gigante formou a caverna de gelo O transporte da Europa até o polo sul foi quase uma operação de guerra: os cilindros precisaram ser mantidos a -20 °C durante todo o trajeto, que durou 50 dias. A chegada ocorreu no último dia 14. O santuário das geleiras, a 3,2 mil metros de altitude, é um projeto ambicioso, iniciado em 2015. O local foi construído todo em gelo, praticamente sem necessidade de outras infraestruturas, à exceção de uma espécie de balão gigante que serviu de fôrma para a caverna, agora transformada em “biblioteca do gelo”. A estrutura tem 35 metros de comprimento e fica a 9 metros abaixo da superfície. A temperatura constante de -54 °C no local permitirá preservar os cilindros por pelo menos 24 anos. Depois, a pressão do gelo tende a começar a deformar a caverna, e será preciso construir uma nova. Geleiras da América do Sul estão entre as mais ameaçadas Entre os pesquisadores que participam do projeto, tem um brasileiro: Jefferson Simões, diretor do Centro Polar e Climático do Instituto de Geociências da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Membro da Academia Brasileira de Ciências e com 29 viagens à Antártida no currículo, Simões é o primeiro glaciólogo do país. "O que nós estamos vendo, ao longo das últimas quatro décadas, é o derretimento principalmente das geleiras não polares. São as que estão nos trópicos, nas regiões temperadas, a exemplo dos Andes, dos Alpes, das Montanhas Rochosas e do Himalaia”, afirma. As da Venezuela já não existem mais, e outras desaparecerão em poucos anos, como as das montanhas Rwenzori, na África Central. "As geleiras, como um todo, guardam um registro muito importante. Elas são formadas pela acumulação, ao longo de milhares de anos, de cristais de neve, que, ao precipitarem-se e se acumularem, com o passar do tempo, carregam todas as características da atmosfera no momento em que se formaram”, sublinha Simões. Importância para a compreensão do aquecimento global O glaciólogo destaca a contribuição das geleiras para a paleoclimatologia, o estudo do passado do clima e de suas variações. Esses registros foram fundamentais para a descoberta e comprovação do aquecimento global. A análise das bolhas de ar retidas no gelo, ao longo de 800 mil anos, levou os cientistas a identificarem o acúmulo anormal de dióxido de carbono (CO2), metano (CH4) e óxido nitroso (N2O) na atmosfera – os principais gases de efeito estufa. "Foi ali que nós demos as evidências de que esses gases atingiram, nos séculos 20 e 21, uma concentração nunca antes vista”, ressalta. Simões é o representante brasileiro no Comitê Científico de Pesquisa Antártica do Conselho Internacional para a Ciência (ICSU), onde é um dos coordenadores de projetos de “perfuração de gelo não polar”. Ele participou das operações de captura de uma amostra na geleira Illimani, na Bolívia, que está sendo transportada para o Ice Memory Sanctuary. No futuro, a meta é coletar cilindros de outras partes dos Andes, como da calota de gelo Quelccaya, no Peru. "Nos trópicos, no Peru e na Bolívia, elas estão derretendo mais rapidamente e guardam registros, por exemplo, da história da química da atmosfera da Amazônia. Essa é uma das áreas pelas quais nós temos muito interesse, para reconstruir a história não só das queimadas e das mudanças do ciclo hidrológico, como também a história das culturas pré-colombianas”, salienta o pesquisador. Acervo com 20 amostras Além da amostra de Illimani, devem chegar nos próximos meses ao Ice Memory cilindros já recolhidos em Svalbard, no mar da Groenlândia, no Cáucaso e nas montanhas de Pamir, no Tajiquistão. No total, 20 amostras farão parte do acervo. Segundo projeções dos cientistas, metade das geleiras do mundo terá desaparecido até 2100. "Desde 1975, as geleiras perderam mais de 9 trilhões de toneladas de gelo, o equivalente a um bloco do tamanho da Alemanha, com 25 metros de espessura", observou Celeste Saulo, secretária-geral da Organização Meteorológica Mundial, na inauguração do projeto. O Ice Memory custou € 10 milhões nesses primeiros 10 anos, a maior parte financiados por fundos públicos de instituições científicas, e cerca de um terço por organizações filantrópicas. * Colaborou Géraud Bosman-Delzons, da RFI

Juliana Garcia started climbing the mountains of Ecuador at fifteen years old. Since then, she has climbed and guided many mountains and big walls throughout the Andes, Peru,Bolivia, Colombia, as well as in Pakistan, Alaska, United States and the Alps. She became the first female Latin American certified IFMGA mountain guide and served as the President of the Ecuadorian Association of guides for 6 years. She is currently one of the instructors of the Ecuadorian guiding school ESGUIM. Juliana is also a Patagonia Brand Ambassador and an AIARE Avalanche Education Instructor and POW ambassador. She served as “board member” at the IFMGA for six years and became the first female and non-European to occupy that position. Recently she was recognized by the IFMGA as an “honorary member”. Juliana got her “ski guide” diploma this spring 2025 in U.S by the AMGA. She became the first female Latin American to obtain this status as a full IFMGA. She is passionate aboutlearning and sharing.Episode Intro:Dear listeners of the Female Guides Requested Podcast,welcome back! I am your host, Ting Ting, from Las Vegas. Today's guest is a true trailblazer in the international guiding community: Juliana Garcia. Juliana is an Ecuadorian mountain guide whose career is a series of "firsts". She was the first woman to pass the rigorous aspirant exams in the Bolivian system and became the first female IFMGA-certified guide in all of Latin America. Juliana's influence extends far beyond the technical terrain of the Andes. She served two terms as the president of the Ecuadorian Mountain Guides Association, where she was instrumental in bringing their national school up to international standards. She also shattered glass ceilings at the highest level of the profession as the first woman ever to sit on the board of the IFMGA. At the time of this interview, Juliana was based in Washington state and was in the final stages of a multi-year journey to become a certified ski guide—a discipline she picked upas an adult to bring high-level snow science and safety back to her home community in Ecuador. (And to no one's surprise, she passed!) Now, let's dive into Juliana's inspiring life journey—her transition from volcanoes to the Cascades, the power of mentorship, and why she believes the most important tool a guide can have is the ability to listen.Links:Her Place in the Mountains – Patagonia StoriesJuliana's Instagram page – julianagarciaguideQuotes:I'm just a person that loves to be outside, loves to be in the mountains. yeah, that's it, I think.When I became part of the board… I became the first female to sit at that board ever. That blew my mind. I was like, ‘You kidding me?I knew that that discipline exist… and I was like, what? I'm going to learn how to ski as an adult. I'm going to learn a lot of our snow science and I'm going to do it.I love sharing how people put themselves outside of their limits, sometimes and they do it and they found joy doing it. I love to be part of that journey of other people.I think we are really good on listening. I think we are really good on perceiving what is going on in our surroundings when we are guiding… and I think we're really good on not being ashamed to turn around.I don't care anymore. I don't need to prove anything to anybody… I realized… I was pushing myself for no reason… no one is going to pushing me… I'm doing my own path.What we can do to help is just to choose to be uncomfortable for a moment in our daily life… We need to choose in our daily life things that we can do that support the energy overall.

WhoJimmy Ackerson, General Manager of Corralco, ChileRecorded onJuly 24, 2025About CorralcoClick here for a mountain stats overviewLocated in: Curacautín, Araucanía, ChileYear founded: 2003, by Enrique BascurPass affiliations: Indy Pass, Indy+ Pass – 2 days, no blackoutsBase elevation: 4,724 feet (1,440 meters)Summit elevation: 7,874 feet (2,400 meters) top of lifts; 9,400 feet (2,865 meters) hike-toVertical drop: 3,150 feet (960 meters) lift-served; 4,676 feet (1,425 meters) hike-toSkiable acres: 2,475 acres lift served; 4,448 acres (1,800 hectares), including hike-to terrainAverage annual snowfall: 354 inches (899 cm)Trail count: 34Lift count: 7 (1 high-speed quad, 1 double, 5 J-bars)Why I interviewed himThe Andes run the length of South America, 4,300 miles from the southern tip of Argentina north to Venezuela. It is the longest continental mountain range on Earth, nearly six times the length of the Alps and 1,300 miles longer than the Rockies. It is the highest mountain range outside of Asia, topping out at 22,841 feet on Mount Aconcagua, more than a mile higher than the tallest point in the Rockies (14,439-foot Mount Elbert) or Alps (15,772-foot Mont Blanc).So this ought to be one hell of a ski region, right? If the Alps house more than 500 ski areas and the Rockies several hundred, then the Andes ought to at least be in the triple digits?Surprisingly, no. Of the seven nations transected by the Andes, only Argentina and Chile host outdoor, lift-served ski areas. Between the two countries, I'm only able to assemble a list of 37 ski areas, 33 of which skiresort.info categorizes as “temporarily closed” – a designation the site typically reserves for outfits that have not operated over the past several seasons.For skiers hoping to live eternal winter by commuting to the Upside Down each May through October, this roster may be a bit of a record scratch. There just aren't that many ski areas in the Southern Hemisphere. Outside of South America, the balance – another few dozen total - sit in Australia and New Zealand, with scattered novelties such as Afriski lodged at the top of Lesotho. There are probably more ski areas in New England than there are south of the equator.That explains why the U.S.-based multimountain ski passes have been slow to move into the Southern Hemisphere – there isn't much there to move into. Ikon and Mountain Collective each have just one destination on the continent, and it's the same destination: Valle Nevado. Epic offers absolutely nothing in South America.Even with few options, Vail moved south a decade ago with its purchase of Perisher, Australia's largest ski area. That English-speaking nation was a logical first pass frontier, but the five Kangaroo resorts claimed by the Epic and Ikon passes are by far the five largest in the country, and they're a 45-year flight from America. New Zealand is similarly remote, with more but generally less-developed ski areas, and Ikon has established a small presence there.But South America remains mostly wide open, despite its obvious appeal to North Americans: the majesty of the Andes, the novelty of summer skiing, and direct flights with no major timezone hopping required. Mountain Capital Partners has dropped anchor in Chile, purchasing Valle Nevado in 2023, neighboring La Parva the following year, and bidding for also-neighboring El Colorado in 2025 (that sale is pending regulatory review).But perhaps it's time for a broader invasion. Last March, Indy Pass added Corralco as its first South American – and first Southern Hemisphere – ski area. That, as Ackerson and I discuss in the podcast, could be just the start of Indy's ambitions for a continent-spanning (or at least, Argentina- and Chile-spanning) resort network.So this is a good time to start getting to know Chilean skiing. And Ackerson, longtime head of the Chilean Ski Areas Association, former leader of Chilean giants Portillo and Valle Nevado, and a Connecticut-born transplant who has been living the upside-down life for more than 50 years, is probably better suited than anyone on the planet to give us that intro.What we talked aboutReverse ski seasons; why Corralco draws (and retains) so much more snow than any other ski area in Chile; no snowmaking; Corralco as training ground for national ski teams; the logistics of moving a high-speed quad from Holiday Valley, New York to the Chilean Andes; rebuilding a lift as a longer machine; how that lift transformed Corralco; new lift, new alignment; the business impact of replacing a double chair with a high-speed quad; how a dude who grew up in Connecticut with non-skiing parents ended up running a ski area in South America; Chile's allure; Portillo; Chilean skiing past and present; Corralco's founding and evolution; shrinking South American ski areas; Mountain Capital Partners (MCP) buying four more ski areas in Chile after purchasing Valle Nevado in 2023 and La Parva in 2024; the Americans are coming; why La Parva, Valle Nevado, and El Colorado “have to be consolidated” for the benefit of future skiing in Chile; MCP's impact on Chilean skiing so far; “the culture is very different here” both on the hill and off; MCP's challenges as they settle into Chilean skiing; why Corralco joined Indy Pass; a potential Indy Pass network in South America; and getting to Corralco from the U.S., from airplane to access road – “we have no switchbacks.”What I got wrong* In the intro, I said that it was the “heart of ski season in South America.” This was true when we recorded this conversation in July 2025. It's not true in January 2026, when the Chilean ski season is long over.* I said the highest peak in Chile only received a few inches of snow per year and didn't retain it, but I couldn't remember the name of the peak – it is 22,615-foot Ojos del Salado.* I gave new stats for Corralco's high-speed quad, but did not mention where those stats came from – my source was skiresort.info, which catalogues a 4,921-foot length and 1,148-foot vertical drop for the lift, both substantially longer than the 4,230-foot length and 688-foot vertical rise that Lift Blog documents for the antecedent Mardi Gras lift at Holiday Valley, New York. We discuss the logistics and mechanics of moving this machine from North to South America and extending it in the pod. Here are a few pics of this machine I took in New York in January 2022:Podcast NotesOn Corralco's evolving footprintCorralco is a new-ish ski area, at least insofar as public access goes. The 2008 trailmap shows a modest vertical drop served by surface lifts:But growth has been rapid, and by 2022, the ski area resembled modern Corralco, which is now an international training center for athletes:On Camp Jewel, ConnecticutAckerson learned to ski on a two-tow bump called Camp Jewell, a YMCA center in Connecticut. NELSAP has some fun info on this defunct ski area, including photos of what's left of the lifts.On Sigi GrottendorderAckerson's conduit to South American skiing came in the form of Austrian-born Sigi Grottendorfer, who led the ski schools at both Sugarbush, Vermont and Portillo, Chile. He passed away in 2023 – The Valley Reporter ran an obituary with more info on Grottendorfer's expansive and colorful life.On Chile “five years after the coup had occurred”We reference past political instability in Chile, referring to the 1973 coup that launched the military dictatorship of the notorious Augusto Pinochet. The nation transitioned back to democracy in 1990 and is considered safe and stable for tourists by the U.S. State Department.On PortilloWe discuss Portillo, a Chilean ski area whose capacity limits and weeklong ski-and-stay packages result in Windham-is-private-style (it's not) confusion. Skiers can visit Portillo on a day pass. Lift tickets are all of $68. Still, the hotel experience is, by all accounts, pretty rad. Here's the bump:On previous podcastsWe mention a few previous podcast guests who had parallels to Ackerson's story. Bogus Basin GM Brad Wilson also left skiing for several years to run a non-ski resort:Longtime Valle Nevado GM Ricardo Margolis appeared on this podcast in 2023:On the shrinking of Volcán Osorno and PillánI won't reset the entire history here, but I broke down the slow shrinkage of Volcán Osorno and Pillán ski areas when Mountain Capital Partners bid to purchase them last year:On Kamori Kankō buying HeavenlyFor a brief period, Japanese company Kamori Kankō owned Steamboat and Heavenly. The company sold both to American Skiing Company in 1997, and they eventually split owners, with Heavenly joining Vail's roster in 2002, and Steamboat now part of Alterra by way of Intrawest. Today, Kamori Kankō appears to operate five ski areas in Japan, all in Hokkaido, most notably Epic Pass partner Rusutsu:On MCP's free season passes for kids 12 and underOne pretty cool thing that Mountain Capital Partners has brought to Chile from its U.S. HQ is free season passes for kids 12 and under. It's pretty incredible:On Sugarbush Ackerson worked for a long time at Sugarbush, an Alterra staple and one of the best overall ski areas in New England. It's a fully modern resort, with the exception of the knockout Castle Rock terrain, which still spins a double chair on all-natural snow:On skiing El ColoradoWe discuss the insane, switchbacking access road up to El Colorado/La Parva/Valle Nevado from Santiago:The route up to Corralco is far more suited to mortals:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Many of our followers turn to us for product recommendations as they remove toxic chemical exposures from their everyday products such as household and personal care products. While household and personal care products can contribute a significant amount of exposure to harmful chemicals such as BPA, phthalates and parabens. These are not the only exposure sources. A recent study from the Center for Environmental Health (CEH) found BPA in sports bras and baby socks. BPA enters clothing during the manufacturing process of polyester, which can help dyes hold and prevent static. The exposure of BPA through skin may actually be worse than ingesting it as the body detox process takes longer. This is why we should choose clothes made from sustainable materials such as organic cotton and wool. Today we invited Meli and Rensso Hinostroza, brother and sister, from AYA Eco Fashion and Arms of Andes to join us to talk about these two fast growing plastic-free fashion brands they created. We are going to discuss their materials, manufacturing process and their bigger visions for a more sustainable planet.Learn more about AYA and Arms of Andes: https://ecoaya.com/ https://armsofandes.com/Get tested for BPA, phthalates, parabens, and other hormone-disrupting chemicals with Million Marker's Test Kit: https://www.millionmarker.com/

Joanne Urioste is an American rock climber who was inducted into the elite group of Honorary Members of the American Alpine Club which includes 136 climbers worldwide “who have had a lasting and highly significant impact on the advancement of the climbing craft.” In the late 1970s and early 80s, she and her husband, Jorge, established many internationally-recognized long technical climbs in the Red Rocks of Southern Nevada. She was the first woman to publish the first guidebook—ever—to a major climbing area that was previously unknown. She also contributed to pioneering ultra-distance adventure running in the 1990s. She lives with Jorge in Las Vegas, NV, and continues to establish first ascents, even in her seventies.Episode Intro:Welcome back to the Female Guides Requested. Happy New Year! This is your host Ting Ting from Las Vegas. Today's guest is a legendary figure whose name is etched into the very sandstone of Red Rock Canyon. Joanne Urioste is a pioneering rock climber, author, and guide who re-imagined what was possible on the towering walls of the American Southwest.Starting her climbing journey in the early 1970s—a time when female climbers were often sidelined—Joanne sought out the high-risk, death-defying situations that most would avoid to prove her independence and mastery. Alongside her husband Jorge, she established hundreds of first ascents that are now world-renowned classics, including Epinephrine, Crimson Chrysalis, and Levitation 29.Joanne didn't just climb; she literally wrote the book on the region, publishing the original Red Rock guidebook in 1984. After a ten-year hiatus to raise her children—a period where she channeled her drive into becoming an elite ultra-runner—she returned to the rock with a renewed passion. Today, we sit down in her home to discuss her ‘renegade' early days, the evolution of climbing ethics, and why she believes that taking risks is the only way to truly stay alive.Links:Book: Collages of Rock & Desire: Re-imagining Climbing in Red Rock, Risk in the Andes & Running into Dreams (amazon)Quotes:On the spirit of climbing: “It doesn't matter if you are physically disabled or not perfect. If you have the spirit and love of climbing, there are different ways that you can climb.”On her ‘renegade' beginnings: “We were just absolute renegades, just you know, shooting from the hip. Boom, boom! Let's do this! Let's do that!”On the intensity of managing risk: “Calculation, risk assessment was the game… you had very strong consequences if you did not calculate correctly.”On the purpose of pushing limits: “This was not about enjoyment. This was about managing the risk in a way that was where you would survive. Pitting yourself against very strong elements and succeeding.”On the ‘Bolting Police': “As we started putting up better and better routes that were like amazing, then people started recognizing that… they started having tremendous hatred for us. As a matter of fact, that type of hatred actually pushed us to do more outrageous things.”On climbing as a spiritual act: “I wanted to really put yourself out there so that you would calculate as humbly as you could with nature and lay yourself down… almost as a form of worship to the natural forces.”On the unique wisdom of female climbers: “The groups of men will absolutely plug their ears and not listen to my advice… it's actually detrimental to the men because they would benefit from the wisdom that they're not listening to.”On why she continues to seek risk: “Having some risk in everything that I do… just keeps me alive. It expands my humanity. Looking at my weakest points and trying to work on them a little bit… it's just such a beautiful way to live.”

This week, in a special episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard is joined by Crisis Group's Caracas-based senior Andes region analyst Phil Gunson to unpack the U.S. military operation in Venezuela that led to the capture of President Nicolás Maduro and to assess what may come next. They examine how the operation unfolded, how it was experienced inside Venezuela, and the government's initial response. They discuss Vice President Delcy Rodríguez's assumption of power and whether Washington may be willing to work with a Maduro-less but still Chavista government to secure oil concessions rather than pursue full regime change. They talk about what Trump meant when he said the U.S. would “run” Venezuela. They also explore the weakened state of the opposition, the role of the military and armed groups, regional reactions, and the prospects for resolving Venezuela's political crisis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After a months-long pressure campaign, the U.S. military stormed into Caracas this weekend, capturing Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. We look at what this means for the future of Venezuela—with Phil Gunson, a senior analyst for the Andes region of the International Crisis Group and Luis Duno-Gottberg, a Venezuelan scholar, and the Lee Hage Jamail Professor of Latin American Studies at Rice University.

Quelle était la destination de ce site bâti par les Incas ? L'archéologue du début du 20e siècle appliquait-il les mêmes techniques que celui d'aujourd'hui ? Pour en parler, Stéphane Bern reçoit Patrice Lecoq, archéologue, maître de conférence honoraire en archéologie andine de l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

https://vimeo.com/1147502145?fl=ip&fe=ec What if your spiritual awakening requires you to go through madness of some sort or other, and mess? In order to really fully embody yourself as human and divine. It's such a horribly lovely journey to go through that madness. Today's guest, Jon Kohrs is with us, as we dive into this topic of madness, navigating your life in relationships and personal discovery and more.  Join us, to find out more! Jon Kohrs has spent twenty years in corporate America as a business and executive coach.  He is a teacher, as well as an advocate for caregivers and he is the author of, Getting Unstuck by Design.  Jon uses experiential teaching methods grounded in Reiki, Andean energy practices, shamanism, Jungian alchemy and mystic traditions. Jon Kohrs is a Chestnut-Paes Enneagram Academy Certified Coach and utilizes the Enneagram to design systems that help leaders in some of the most highly bureaucratic organizations in the United States to unlearn how they work, unlock organizational potential, creatively facilitate change within their team and work in a whole new way. In an effort to break the norms of how we express ourselves authentically, Jon Kohrs wrote, Horribly Lovely, a spiritual romantic memoir of a man's unconventional journey through love, addiction, infidelity, heartbreak, the overall messiness of being human and searching for the beauty of beginning again and again. It is a soulful story told with raw honesty,  poetic intensity and written with psychological depth to explore the truest sense of love and what remains after heartbreak. It is an ideal companion for anyone who's ever felt broken in a relationship or lost in their search for the perfect love story. Watch or listen to the show to find encouragement for facing the madness and messiness of our human journey and embodying yourself as fully human and fully divine.

His writing defies genre, weaving symbolic narratives that are dreamlike, lyrical, and poetic—inviting readers into the raw, unfiltered beauty of being human.  With roots in shamanism, the Enneagram, and Jungian alchemy, Jon explores the phenomenological experience of love—how it melts the hardened statues of identity and invites us to play with the clay of the soul. Through this work, he seeks to break the norms of expression and awaken truth in its most idiosyncratic, real, and uncomfortable forms.  Jon also works as a designer, coach, and teacher who bridges the worlds of inner transformation and organizational innovation. He helps leaders shape visionary ideas into ventures that honor both soul and strategy.  Jon dives into the depth not to explain reality, but to live into his own truth. He lives in Kansas City with his three children and is a relative of the Slovenian writer Ivan Tavčar.

The man was busy harvesting onions when we prayerfully approached him during the home visits we were conducting on our mission trip in Ecuador. In broken Spanish, I told him my friends and I’d like to briefly speak to him about the Bible. He paused to listen as we shared our testimonies with him. One of my teammates took out his Bible and started reading Scripture aloud (in English). What a sacred moment it was to hear Scripture being read on the side of the Andes mountains and to see the man reading along in Spanish with the booklet we had given him! We talked with him and his family who’d been working off in the distance, prayed for them, and continued to the next house. As we walked along the mountainside reading Scripture and talking to people about Christ, I thought of Jesus and His disciples walking along the hills and valleys of Israel during His earthly ministry. Isaiah 52:7 says, “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation.” The prophet was referring to the time when God’s people would return to their homeland after years in exile, but it still applies to us today whenever we share the Good News of Jesus with others. Our opportunities may not be in the spectacular Andes, but wherever God has placed us, the Holy Spirit can help us share the message of salvation with those He puts in our path.

The Andean Condor is one of the largest flying birds in the world. With a wingspan that can stretch over 10 feet across, the condor doesn't flap so much as sail, using rising thermals to glide across the Andes for hours. Once revered in Inca mythology as a messenger of the gods, the Andean Condor now graces the coat of arms of Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, and Ecuador. But like many scavengers, condor populations are declining due to threats like lead poisoning and habitat loss.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?
