En este episodio de Ivannia Vanni Podcast, conversamos con Johana Fernández, directora de Runway Fashion Design (RFD), pionera en Latinoamérica en impulsar la moda sostenible, la creatividad y el emprendimiento ético en la industria textil.Johana nos cuenta cómo la industria del fast fashion afecta al planeta, a la calidad de la ropa y a nuestros hábitos de consumo, y qué se está haciendo en Chile para enfrentar este desafío, desde políticas locales hasta iniciativas de sostenibilidad y circularidad.En esta conversación exploramos:- La relación de la humanidad con la moda: identidad, pertenencia y expresión.- Por qué la ropa dura cada vez menos y cómo la moda rápida ha cambiado nuestros hábitos.- El impacto ambiental y ético de marcas como Shein, Temu, H&M y Zara, y del desecho textil en el Desierto de Atacama.- Cómo RFD conecta diseñadores, artesanos y marcas para crear un modelo productivo ético, circular y con identidad local.- Qué podemos aprender de leyes y prácticas internacionales para generar cambios en Chile.- Consejos para consumir moda de manera consciente sin dejar de expresarte y disfrutar de tu estilo.
En este episodio de Junto al Agro y el Clima analizamos el cierre de la temporada invernal, observando un leve descenso de Horas de Frío respecto al promedio histórico y precipitaciones acumuladas superiores en regiones como Atacama, Coquimbo, Valparaíso, Metropolitana y O'Higgins, mientras otras aún muestran déficit. Además, el aumento de temperaturas en julio y agosto ha adelantado la madurez de especies frutales como avellanos, cerezos, almendros y arándanos.
María Morena EchegarayEl podcast analiza el impacto del fast fashion en el ambiente, con énfasis en la contaminación plástica generada por la industria textil. Se abordan las consecuencias sociales y ambientales de este modelo, ejemplificadas en el caso del desierto de Atacama, y se menciona el rol del greenwashing en las prácticas de las marcas. A partir de alternativas de la economía circular, busca generar concienciación sobre la necesidad de reutilizar, reciclar y reducir en la producción y el consumo.CV Abogada - UCA (Diploma de honor)Especialización en Derecho Ambiental - UBA (2023 - 2024)Tesis en corrección.

Le supplément de ce samedi nous emmène dans le nord du Chili, là où le ciel est exceptionnellement translucide, mais diverses pollutions menacent la bonne vue des télescopes. Nous verrons également en quoi les systèmes d'alertes sont devenus des véritables gages de prévention stratégiques face aux catastrophes naturelles. (Rediffusion) Catastrophes naturelles : le monde en alerte Cyclones, inondations, feux de forêts, glissements de terrains ou tremblements de terre et tsunamis. Les catastrophes, souvent qualifiées de naturelles, sèment la mort et la destruction, chaque année, à travers le monde. Elles frappent particulièrement durement les plus vulnérables. Mais les drames humains entrainés par ces catastrophes ne sont pas si inéluctables : les systèmes d'alerte et les plans de mise en sécurité de la population peuvent sauver des vies. Pour aider les États à se préparer… un exercice de simulation grandeur nature d'un séisme suivi d'un tsunami est organisé chaque année dans la zone caraïbe. Cette année, 48 pays et près de 500 000 personnes ont été mobilisés sous l'égide des Nations unies. « Catastrophes naturelles : le monde en alerte », un Grand reportage de Jeanne Richard. L'observation des étoiles au Chili, sous la menace Le nord du Chili est devenu le maître incontestable de l'astronomie mondiale. Les observatoires les plus puissants de la planète y sont construits, attirant les meilleurs astronomes, mais aussi, de très nombreux touristes. La ville de San Pedro de Atacama s'est ainsi transformée en capitale mondiale du tourisme astronomique, ou astrotourisme. Cela s'est fait rapidement : en une dizaine d'années. Mais rien ne garantit que le ciel le plus pur du monde ne le reste pour toujours... « L'observation des étoiles au Chili, sous la menace », un Grand reportage de Marion Bellal.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson interviews Stanford professor and prolific biotech entrepreneur Dr. Garry Nolan, covering the cutting-edge of cancer research and atomic-level imaging as well as his work with the U.S. government on anomalous health effects linked to unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs). Nolan explains how his scientific curiosity—and integrity—led him from debunking the infamous Atacama “alien” mummy to analyzing bizarre materials and biological effects tied to UAP encounters. Artificial intelligence, intuition, consciousness, and the blurry line between science fiction and scientific frontier, culminate in Nolan's provisional belief: “something non-human has been here a long time.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/total-disclosure-ufos-coverups-conspiracy--5975113/support.

Cosa sta succedendo al pianeta? Sempre più spesso assistiamo a fenomeni meteorologici estremi: piogge torrenziali, grandine, caldo torrido, inondazioni, incendi. Solo nell'ultima settimana: tornado in Francia, grandine con chicchi di diametro fino a 10 cm in Italia, +46,6 °C in Portogallo, neve nel deserto di Atacama, inondazioni catastrofiche in Cina, cedimenti del terreno e un terremoto atipico in Siberia e tragiche inondazioni in Pakistan.Ma la cosa più importante è la minaccia nascosta nelle profondità della Terra. Il pennacchio magmatico in Siberia mostra segni preoccupanti di risveglio. È stato proprio questo, 250 milioni di anni fa, a causare l'estinzione di massa sul pianeta. Oggi i segni sono simili: aumento anomalo delle temperature, aumento dell'attività sismica, cedimenti del terreno, degassificazione profonda delle profondità terrestri e molti altri
In this episode, Divya speaks with Scott Hardy. Scott is an Extension Educator with the Ohio Sea Grant College Program, where he leads research and runs education and outreach programs on watershed restoration, coastal zone management, and stormwater runoff. He is also an Adjunct Associate Professor of Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences at Case Western Reserve University, where he works on several research projects. Scott's work is all about collaboration — bringing people together to solve problems that no one can tackle alone. He knows that collaboration isn't automatic. It takes time, trust, and spaces where people feel heard and included. He also believes that every place is different, and you need to really understand the local context to make teamwork work. Different projects need different kinds of partnerships, and Scott is skilled at figuring out what each situation needs. In this episode, they talk about Scott's ongoing work on Cuyahoga River restoration, where he has been closely collaborating with a wide range of stakeholders ranging from state agencies to industry to local communities. They also talk about his recent experience as a Fulbright Specialist at the Universidad de Atacama in Copiapó, Chile, where he was invited to share his expertise on sustainable water management.

fWotD Episode 2989: Llullaillaco Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 11 July 2025, is Llullaillaco.Llullaillaco (Spanish pronunciation: [ʎuʎajˈʎako]) is a dormant stratovolcano on the border between Argentina (Salta Province) and Chile (Antofagasta Region). It lies in the Puna de Atacama, a region of tall volcanic peaks on a high plateau close to the Atacama Desert, one of the driest places in the world. Its maximum elevation is most commonly given as 6,723 metres (22,057 ft), making it the second- or third-highest volcano in the world. Despite its height, it is not clear whether the volcano has any glaciers or merely patches of perennial snow and ice. Between 3700 m and 5000 m elevation there is a sparse plant cover, while at lower altitudes the climate is too dry for plants to grow. A species of mouse on Llullaillaco is the highest-living known vertebrate species.The volcano formed during the Pleistocene in two stages, named Llullaillaco I and Llullaillaco II. The oldest rocks are about 1.5 million years old. About 150,000 years ago, the volcano's southeastern flank collapsed, generating a debris avalanche that reached as far as 25 kilometres (16 mi) from the summit. During the last stage, three conspicuous lava flows were emplaced on the summit. The youngest dated rocks are 930 ± 140 years old, but there are reports of activity from the 19th century. There are a number of archaeological sites on the mountain and at its foot; Llullaillaco marks the highest archaeological site in the world. The first recorded ascent was in 1950. In 1999, the mummified remains of three children, known as the Children of Llullaillaco, were found at its summit. They are presumed to have been human sacrifices.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Friday, 11 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Llullaillaco on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Ruth.

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From October 2024. Today's 2 topics: - To discover what would happen if an asteroid were to strike a large body of water, Dr. Galen Gisler led a team of scientists who used high performance computing facilities at Los Alamos National Laboratory to calculate and visualize a 3-D model of an asteroid entering the Earth's atmosphere over one of the world's oceans. These efforts won them the Best Visualization and Data Analytics Showcase award at Supercomputing 2016. Reality is that what happens depends upon the mass, size, speed, angle of approach, and composition of the impacting object. Galen's group of scientists documented the hunch that since an asteroid strikes the water at a single point, it only effects the immediate region around the impact point, whereas to create a tsunami, you need something like an under water landslide which disturbs an entire water column from the ocean floor to the surface. - The ALMA radio telescope located in the Atacama desert of northern Chile is able to see the faint millimeter wave length glow emitted by gas molecules and dust particles in the disk of material surrounding the very young star named HD 163296. This solar system in formation is located about 400 light years away in the constellation of Sagittarius. HD 162396's age compared to our Sun is like that of a 3 day old human baby compared to a 65 year old adult.

Highlights:- SpaceX Starship Explosion: In this episode, we delve into the latest developments from SpaceX as their Starship spacecraft experienced an explosion during a static fire test at the Starbase site. Initial analyses suggest a failure of a composite overwrapped pressure vessel, but thankfully, no injuries were reported. We discuss the implications of this incident on the timeline for future flight tests and the challenges faced by the upper stage of the Starship programme.- Monstrous Oort Cloud Comet: Astronomers have made remarkable observations of the colossal comet C/2014 UN271 Bernardinelli-Bernstein, one of the largest Oort Cloud comets ever discovered, measuring 140 kilometres across. We explore its surprising activity, including jets of carbon monoxide gas, and its long journey towards the Sun, with a perihelion expected in January 2031.- Europe's Space Ambitions: French President Emmanuel Macron has called for Europe to reclaim its status as a global space power, particularly in the competitive low Earth orbit satellite market. We discuss his vision for increased investment and collaboration with international partners to build a robust European satellite infrastructure and the significance of this push for independence in space capabilities.- ESA's 50th Anniversary: The European Space Agency celebrates its half-century milestone with a new publication highlighting key achievements over the years. From landing on a comet to developing advanced satellite navigation systems, we reflect on the agency's pivotal role in advancing Europe's capabilities in space and its importance for maintaining independence in the field.

We embark on the first part of a series begun in 2024 by Jack Eidt who joined the artistic residency of Osceola Refetoff, a Canadian-American visual artist and photojournalist, in Antofagasta, Chile. Supported by SACO Cultural Corporation, this residency places a spotlight on the Atacama Desert, one of the driest places on Earth, and its rich yet troubled history with mining. We delve into the environmental and social impacts of mining in this region, the historical context of Latin American exploitation, and the legacy of colonialism and neoliberal policies. Featuring poignant quotes from local authors and music that reflects Chile's cultural heritage, this episode is a profound exploration of eco-justice, history, and art. This episode sheds light on the difficult working conditions, pollution, and migratory phenomena that have shaped the Atacama's legacy. **Historical Context and Colonial Legacy** We journey through the historical context of mining in the Atacama, from the nitrate boom of the 19th century to the present-day lithium rush. The episode explores the economic motivations and political maneuverings that have led to the region's exploitation, including the devastating impact of colonialism and neoliberal policies. **Interview with Don Victor Loyola** One of the highlights of the episode is an interview with Don Victor Loyola, a former miner who has worked at the municipal museum in Maria Elena. **Indigenous Presence and Geoglyphs** The Atacama Desert is also home to a rich indigenous history, evidenced by the thousands of geoglyphs that dot the landscape. These ancient works of art, created by the region's early inhabitants, offer a glimpse into the spiritual and practical lives of the people who once thrived in this harsh environment. The episode explores the significance of these geoglyphs and their role in the transportation networks that connected ancient South American civilizations.

For nearly 20 years, the women of Calama traveled into the desert each day to search for their loved ones — their husbands and partners who were ripped from them, detained, tortured, executed, and disappeared in the weeks following Chile's US-backed 1973 coup d'état.Monday through Sunday, sun-up to sundown, they scoured the harsh desert earth with strainers and rakes, searching and hoping.And finally, in 1990, on the edge of a hillside overlooking the expansive Atacama desert, the women found fragments of bones and pieces of teeth. This was the location their loved ones had laid buried for 17 years. This is the May Week of the Disappeared — a week to remember and honor those who have been forcibly disappeared and the fight for truth and justice for their families.This is episode 38 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange.

This week, we look at another case that has been solved--the Atacama Skeleton. Found in a ghost town in 2003 and exploited as a potential alien body, will this girl ever get to rest in peace?

“If you’re someone who’s always dreamed of going to Mars but you don’t have the time to become an astronaut, you can just visit the Atacama Desert.” –Mark Johanson In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Mark talk about how Mark became interested in the Atacama Desert, and his experience in other world deserts (1:45); what Mark sought when he traveled through the region (16:00); what it’s like to experience the area, and why it’s known as “Mars on Earth” (26:00); what travelers can do there, and what it’s like for Mark to live in Chile (36:30).

Hello! What are we actually doing? Our unwanted clothes don't belong dumped in Chile's beautiful Atacama Desert...Everyone knows reasons why the global north exports used clothing to the global south - it's because fashion is too fast, quality is too low, volumes are too high, and for rich countries it's often cheaper to export your problem than it is to deal with it onshore. But even if that wasn't the case, even if you had a big dream and deep pockets, that horse has bolted - the system at scale today is about global trade.Certainly, some of it is a reuse stream, some of it does get re-worn and recycled. Also sorted, processed and re-exported. But the fact is, too many of of these clothes become unsustainable waste that, once they reach their final destination, escape into the environment and pollute Nature and communities.According to the UN, about 40% of the clothes imported through Chile's Iquique free trade zone in the northern Atacama, have no value in the local second-hand clothing market and cannot be re-exported. Many end up dumped in the desert.In our annual Fashion Revolution ep, we meet the activists and creatives behind a genius campaign - Recommerce Atacama. Bastian Barria and Angela Astudillo from Desierto Vestido have joined forces with creative agency Art Plan, ecommerce platform Vtex, and Fashion Revolution Brazil to sell these clothes back to where they come from. The price? Zero dollars. The slogan: "Don't buy, rescue!"Clare sits down with Fernanda Simon and Paula Lagrotta to unpack the issues.More info at thewardrobecrisis.comTell us what you think?

Carolina Colque and Sergio Armella are the owners of Ephedra Restaurant outside of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile. Let me be clear when I say that this is a very unlikely restaurant. Two young, local Atacameños with no cooking experience, have opened a tasting menu restaurant in the Atacama Desert, the driest place on earth. It's not even in the main town, San Pedro de Atacama, but in an ayllu, a traditional community a dozen kilometers away. I urge you to just go to their Instagram page right now and look at the food they are making and the ingredients they are working with. It will blow your mind.The Atacama Desert, in the far north of Chile, is a special place. I have been there a few times over the years. The scenery is unreal, almost lunar at times, but it is the flavors there that have always excited me. In a place with little rain, most of the plants grow slowly, into large shrubs with brittle branches that develop one-of-a-kind flavors. There are also fruit trees, leguminous pods and fragrant flowers that only come out when there is a hint of moisture in the air. This is the kind of landscape Carolina and Sergio are working with.Before starting the restaurant, Sergio's cooking experience consisted of a Neapolitan pizza business they tried out during the pandemic, then he staged at Geranium, the 3 Michelin star restaurant in Copenhagen, which is extremely technical, for a few months. What makes Ephedra special is their will to create a distinct experience in the place they are from. These unique ecosystems, not to mention the cultures that support them, are what makes Latin American food special.Read More at New Worlder.

Tamara and her husband recently took a couple's trip to Chile and this week on the podcast she shares her impressions, experiences, and tips for Santiago and Atacama Desert. In a future episode, she will talk about her week in Chile's Winelands. Episode Highlights Tamara flew Avianca Airlines on a flight deal from Boston to Bogota and Bogota to Santiago. Avianca Airlines business class is more like premium economy and not a very impressive business class but overall the flights went smoothly. She really enjoyed her stay at the Hyatt Centric Las Condes. Las Condes is a nice area to stay in Santiago. If you are visiting Santiago or Valparaiso, be on alert of pickpockets and petty crime and don't wear jewelry and keep your phone secure. Foodies would love the chef's tasting dinner at Borago in Santiago. To get to the Atacama Desert, you fly 1.5-2 hours to Calama and then it is a 1.5 hour drive to San Pedro de Atacama, which is the central hub for the region. Tamara stayed at the Nayara Alto Atacama, which provides a transfer to and from the airport. They offer an all-inclusive rate that includes food, drink, and group excursions. Other options include the Explora and the Tierra and the Awasi offers private excursions. She wouldn't recommend self-driving because there is very little cell service and getting to some of the attractions includes driving on dirt roads. The Atacama Desert is at a higher elevation so it is good to stay at least 3 nights so that you can do the higher elevation excursions later in your stay after you have time to acclimate. Nayara Alto Atacama is part of Virtuoso and booking through Tamara you can get perks that include a $100 spa credit. They did three excursions: Sunset excursion to the Valle de la Luna (Valley of the Moon) with some short hikes and finishing with a sundowner Salt Flats and Flamingo Reserve - the salt flats are not the flat white salt that you see in Bolivia or Utah, the salt is mixed with minerals and the flats looks a lot like a white lava field Rainbow Valley - not as dramatic as Rainbow Mountain in Peru but a great landscape with layers of red, white, and green rock Star gazing - the Atacama Desert is well-known for its dark skies and star gazing The food at the resort was fine but lunch was a three-course meal and if you want something more casual you can eat at the bar. The portions are small and there are only a few options per meal, but at least the menu changes every day. Make sure you get the correct adapter for electrical outlets. You need cash for small shops and some tips but you can mostly use a credit card or charge tips to your room Make sure you wear sunscreen and a hat because there is a high UV index Be sure to stay hydrated and bring lots of moisturizer and lip balm Bring plenty of layers because the desert gets cold at night Remember that it is in the Southern Hemisphere so the summer high season is December - March and winter is during our summer. Bring shoes with good traction.
Le supplément du samedi de ce 19 avril 2025 nous emmènera dans le nord du Chili, là où le ciel est exceptionnellement translucide, mais diverses pollutions menacent la bonne vue des télescopes. Nous verrons également en quoi les systèmes d'alertes sont devenus des véritables gages de prévention stratégiques face aux catastrophes naturelles. Cyclones, inondations, feux de forêts, glissements de terrains ou tremblements de terre et tsunami. Les catastrophes, souvent qualifiées de naturelles, sèment la mort et la destruction, chaque année, à travers le monde. Elles frappent particulièrement durement les plus vulnérables. Mais les drames humains entrainés par ces catastrophes ne sont pas si inéluctables : les systèmes d'alerte et les plans de mise en sécurité de la population peuvent sauver des vies.Pour aider les États à se préparer… un exercice de simulation grandeur nature d'un séisme suivi d'un tsunami est organisé chaque année dans la zone caraïbe. Cette année, 48 pays et près de 500 milles personnes ont été mobilisés sous l'égide des Nations unies.« Catastrophes naturelles : le monde en alerte », un Grand reportage de Jeanne Richard. Le nord du Chili est devenu le maitre incontestable de l'astronomie mondiale. Les observatoires les plus puissants de la planète y sont construits, attirant les meilleurs astronomes, mais aussi, de très nombreux touristes. La ville de San Pedro de Atacama s'est ainsi transformée en capitale mondiale du tourisme astronomique, ou astrotourisme. Cela s'est fait rapidement : en une dizaine d'années. Mais rien ne garantit que le ciel le plus pur du monde ne le reste pour toujours...« L'observation des étoiles au Chili, sous la menace », c'est un grand reportage de Marion Bellal.

Cooperation, respect and strategic interdependence have long characterized the US-Canada relationship. Now, in a matter of weeks, that mutual friendliness has been jeopardized by a trade war and increasing threats from President Donald Trump about annexing Canada. Also, in Turkey, the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, has announced a ceasefire. What the ceasefire means for security in the region. Also, Bhutan is leaning on bitcoin mining to power a much-needed economic recovery. And, astronomers are sounding the alarm about the impact of a planned renewable energy plant in Chile's Atacama desert. The area is home to some of the most-advanced observatories on Earth because of the unmatched darkness of the night sky. Listen to today's Music Heard on Air.
