Our fascination and allure with Salmon salar dates back to Neanderthal man and ancient Roman civilization. It is truly the fish of kings and queens, and rivers that run through regal estates, and vast wilderness areas in the north like Labrador, Arctic Russia and Scandinavia . Why I am so grateful we have a thriving Atlantic salmon fishery in Michigan. But to the gastronomic world , it could be one of the most cherished dishes we have ever come to love to death . However, to the fly fisher, it is by far the most sporting, most savagely beautiful, and beguiling fish that will rise to take the fly. Its relationship to the highly sought after brown trout makes Atlantic salmon the king of all bucket list game fish Though many Atlantic salmon fisheries are experiencing hardships in the world due to the effects of over-harvesting, commercial fish farms and the extremes of climate change, the Gaspe of Quebec's rivers and wild Atlantic salmon are thriving very well, thanks to forward thinking and tight ecological management. David Bishop is one of the top Atlantic salmon guides on the planet- bar none! And together with host Matthew Supinski , they bring you the secret world of diving into the fish's mind and spirit, tactics and flies, and current world challenges facing the courageous Salmo salar and its verve to survive- don't miss this one!

Have you ever wondered what will become of the competition among major powers when it comes to the Arctic? While the world's attention is focused on the Middle East, the race for dominance in the Arctic is quietly intensifying. When I say major power, I'm talking about the three countries that matter the most: China, Russia, and the United States. Each of these nations has its own strategic interests in the Arctic, and they are making moves to secure their positions.One of the main driving forces behind this competition is the Arctic's vast natural resources, particularly natural gas. It is estimated that natural gas provides almost a quarter of all global energy usage. And with global energy demands relentlessly growing, these powerful nations are eyeing the Arctic as a new frontier for energy exploration and exploitation.But the battle for the Arctic is not just about energy. It is about asserting dominance and control over a strategically important region. It is about geopolitical influence, national security, and economic supremacy. The melting Arctic ice is creating new shipping routes, opening up the possibility for faster and more cost-effective trade routes between Asia, Europe, and North America.☎️ For Business inquiries, please go to ➡︎ show@geopoliticsinconflict.comAbout David:Dr. Oualaalou served a fifteen-year career in the United States Armed Forces in support of the US government's security agencies in Washington DC and around the world.

Last year, The Guardian did a five-month investigation into “carbon bombs,” or fossil fuel projects that would, over the course of their life, emit over one billion tons of carbon. They found that there are 195 planned oil and gas carbon bombs around the world, and if they proceed as planned, these projects alone would blow past internationally agreed upon climate targets. For our eleventh deep dive on carbon bombs, we take a look at the Bovanenkovo Gas Field: a major natural gas formation in Arctic Russia. The Bovanenkovo Gas Field holds 6.05 trillion cubic meters of natural gas, giving it the potential to emit 11.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide. But beyond climate and environmental issues, Bovanenkovo presents another major concern: revenue from that natural gas is funding the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Today, we explore how Bovanenkovo gas affects the surrounding community, how it ties into the war in Ukraine, and what needs to happen for Russia, Ukraine, and NATO to achieve a more sustainable and peaceful future.

More evidence continues to be exposed about the fraud in America’s presidential election, yet the mainstream press continues to insist that claims of fraud are baseless. Anticipating a Joe Biden administration, Iran’s parliament passed two laws this week that expose as never before the nation’s intentions to build nuclear weapons. In pursuit of the rich resources of the Arctic, Russia is rapidly militarizing this region, staking its claims and pushing back on anyone who would challenge them. We also talk about the problem of far-right groups in Germany; a special counsel to investigate the origins of the Russia collusion hoax; China imprisoning a prominent advocate of democracy in Hong Kong; Hezbollah’s leader fleeing Lebanon, a startling sign of his group’s weakness there; and Portugal’s plan to shrink the European Union.

I caught up with my long time Twitter friend David Dinsley to talk about his obsession with wildlife conservation, photography and adventures as a ranger working with the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust. We talk about his expedition to Arctic Russia trapping and tagging Bewick's swans to trace their movements and find out why they are declining. There's also some healthy, competitive debate in the great North-South divide in who has the best wildlife, Northumberland or London. Sadly for me I think David's winning. Wait until you hear about some of the fantastic species he sees and photographs regularly! Jealous, me?!Sean's Wild Life podcast is produced and edited by Thomas Ntinas.

The coldest battlefield in the world is opening up, and old regional rivalries are beginning to flare. This is moving trade routes from the US's backyard toward the Russians. A battle is about to begin for the far North, but only one side is really prepared. Russia is rolling out Arctic divisions, new bases and groundbreaking new missiles which threaten the US naval dominance across the world's oceans. Are these new missiles going to make carriers obsolete or are they just the next step in the rapidly changing landscape? We pose this question to our panel of experts.

Sacha is an Australian-born conservationist, adventurer and motivational speaker. She works for the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT) in the UK. Over the past 20 years, Berwick swan numbers have nearly halved with just 20,000 remaining in the wild but experts are unsure what is causing the population crash. Sacha had an idea to investigate the problem, which she though was crazy at first. However, after 18 months of planning in the winter of 2016, Sacha decided to followed their entire 7,000 km migration route from Arctic Russia to the UK. She did this by flying with the birds on a paramotor. Essentially hanging from a paraglider with a propellor on her back!  During this podcast, we learn more about her early life, growing up in Australia, before moving over to the UK. Sacha also shares more about her life as a champion free-diver! She provides advices and top tips that you’ll be able to apply to your next challenge or adventure!  Show notes Who is Sacha Dench?

After flying thousands of kilometres from faraway Bangladesh and New Zealand via the Yellow Sea, the shorebirds of the East Asian Flyway complete their northward migration. They touch down in the Arctic Russia and Alaska to breed. In May and June, birds such as the endangered spoon-billed sandpiper and red knot fill the air of the Russian tundras with their mating calls and display flights. But why travel so far to raise the next generation? Presenter Ann Jones also discovers why Russian and British conservationists are taking eggs from the nests of the spoon-billed sandpiper, the most endangered shorebirds in the world, in a last ditch effort to save the species from extinction. Finally, with the mating season finished and a new generation ready to migrate for the first time, we follow the incredible non-stop flight of nine days by the bar-tailed godwit, as it migrates south from Alaska all the way to New Zealand. The record-breaking species is helped by somehow being able to sense the weather patterns across the entire Pacific Ocean. The series is a co-production from the BBC World Service and Australian ABC Radio National. The sound recordings from Russia and Alaska were provided by the Macaulay Library of Natural Sounds at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. (Photo: Spoon-billed sandpiper chick in Chukotka, NE Russia.
