When they were invented in the '90s, renewable energy certificates were meant to stimulate the green energy market. Back then, building wind and solar farms was way more expensive than it is today. The idea was that renewable energy producers could sell certificates that represented the “greenness” of the energy they made. Anyone buying those certificates, or RECs, could claim that green power and also claim they were helping the environment. For years, corporations have bought RECs as a low-commitment way to claim they're “going green” – all while using the same old fossil fuel-powered electricity. So how exactly do RECs help the climate crisis? This week, Reveal investigates RECs and finds that the federal government uses them to pad its environmental stats. Reveal's Will Evans starts with Auden Schendler, the man in charge of sustainability at Aspen Skiing Co. Schendler initially convinced his company to buy RECs to go green, then realized he made a mistake. But even after he spoke out and evidence piled up showing that RECs were ineffective, other companies kept buying them – and the federal government did, too. Evans and Reveal's Melissa Lewis determined that since 2010, more than half of what the government has claimed as renewable energy was just cheap RECs. Next, Reveal's Najib Aminy takes us to Palm Beach County, Florida, to find out where some RECs are made: in a trash incinerator. Amid all the sounds and smells of burning garbage, Aminy looks into whether buying RECs actually helps the environment and where the money goes. He meets Andrew Byrd, who lives nearby and worries about the fumes. It turns out that federal agencies bought RECs from this incinerator in order to meet renewable energy mandates. Finally, we explore another place where the government buys  RECs: two biomass plants in Georgia, where residents complained of toxic pollution. Evans looks into where the government's modest environmental goals come from and why federal agencies buy RECs in the first place. He also talks to a REC industry veteran and examines how a plan from the Biden administration could change things.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

Profesor Byrd na co dzień zajmuje się badaniem języków w College of Arts & Sciences. Pewnego razu zadzwonił do niego zupełnie niespodziewanie telefon, a głos po drugiej stronie zaproponował jemu i jego żonie (także badaczce języków) pracę przy wyjątkowym projekcie. Ich zadaniem miało być stworzenie języka, którym mogli posługiwać się ludzie niedługo po zakończeniu epoki lodowcowej. Zleceniodawcą okazał się jeden z największych producentów gier na świecie - Ubisoft. Przygotowywał właśnie kolejną część cyklu "Far Cry" pod tytułem "Primal". W grze nie pada ani jedno słowo w języku angielskim lub innym znanym nam dziś. Państwo Byrd opierając się na źródłach oraz wiedzy lingwistycznej stworzyli własną wersję języka praindoeuropejskiego. Posłuchajcie naszej rozmowy z profesorem Byrdem!  Rozmowę emitujemy w oryginale, czyli po angielsku.

Drs Michael Chambers and Andrew Byrd know the questions to ask, the people to talk to, and the processes to explore to get your business idea or invention started. They work with individuals and companies that are trying to break through and offer coaching, feedback, and introductions. If it's going to fail, they want it to fail fast so that you can quickly pivot and take the idea in a different direction where a market may be eagerly awaiting your idea. It's intense and rigorous and not for everyone but Drs Chambers and Byrd agree - entrepreneurs are often the most satisfied people they know and their drive can't be stopped.

The Linguistics Program is excited to welcome Assistant Professor Andrew Byrd to its faculty! This podcast is part of a series highlighting the new faculty members who joined the College of Arts and Sciences in the fall 2014 semester. This podcast was produced by Casey Hibbard.

Just recently, the Linguistics Program's Andrew Byrd was interviewed by the BBC's Newsday radio series. The interview served to highlight Byrd's work studying the "Proto-Indo-European" language which dates back thousands of years. In the interview, Byrd gives listeners a glimpse of the language's history and a chance to hear the language given breath. A special thanks to the BBC World Service and The World Today as well as the College of Arts & Sciences and the Linguistics Program for making this podcast possible. https://linguistics.as.uky.edu/podcasts/linguistics-professor-andrew-byrd-interviewed-bbcs-newsday This podcast was produced by Patrick O'Dowd.
