APPLE INICIA UN FONDO DE $ 200 MILLONES PARA ELIMINAR EL CO2 MEDIANTE LA RESTAURACIÓN DE BOSQUES Fuente: Engadget https://www.engadget.com/apple-restore-fund-carbon-capture-143420054.html Apple no está completamente seguro de que pueda convertirse en carbono neutral para 2030, y apuesta a que una actitud más amable hacia la naturaleza lo ayudará a alcanzar ese objetivo. El gigante tecnológico Conservation International y Goldman Sachs lanzaron un Fondo de restauración de 200 millones de dólares destinado a eliminar "al menos" 1 millón de toneladas métricas de CO2 de la atmósfera cada año mediante la inversión en proyectos de restauración forestal. La empresa no se limita a plantar árboles y esperar lo mejor. Se basa en los estándares de la Convención sobre el Clima de la ONU, Verra y el Panel Intergubernamental sobre Cambio Climático para cuantificar adecuadamente la captura de carbono y garantizar que el CO2 se mantenga fuera de la atmósfera. Apple agregó que se estaba enfocando en bosques en funcionamiento que ayudan a la biodiversidad. No hay duda de que esto está destinado a llamar la atención en el período previo al Día de la Tierra, y no es tan ambicioso como el objetivo de Microsoft de convertirse en carbono negativo en un período de tiempo similar. Sin embargo, como señaló Apple, este es un enfoque "primero en su tipo" para que una empresa elimine el CO2. Podría llevar a otras empresas a hacer lo mismo y volverse neutrales o negativas en carbono cuando antes no era una opción. APPLE FITNESS + ESTÁ AGREGANDO ENTRENAMIENTOS PARA MUJERES EMBARAZADAS Y PERSONAS MAYORES Fuente: Engadget https://www.engadget.com/fitness-plus-180632241.html Fitness + ya hace un trabajo admirable al hacer que los entrenamientos divertidos sean accesibles para aquellos que recién comienzan su viaje de acondicionamiento físico. Y Apple está introduciendo entrenamientos diseñados específicamente para mujeres embarazadas y adultos mayores. Hay 18 sesiones para encontrar en las dos categorías, y cada entrenamiento individual tarda unos 10 minutos en completarse. Apple dice que estará en buenas manos con entrenadores que saben un par de cosas sobre el ejercicio en esa etapa de la vida. Por ejemplo, las clases de embarazo están dirigidas por la futura mamá Betina Gozo. Al igual que con la mayoría de los otros entrenamientos de Fitness +, habrá varios otros entrenadores disponibles para demostrar posibles modificaciones. Además, Apple está agregando nuevos entrenamientos para principiantes que encontrará en las categorías de yoga, fuerza y ​​entrenamiento en intervalos de alta intensidad. Si está buscando aprender la forma adecuada, este es el lugar para comenzar. Todas las adiciones de Fitness + estarán disponibles a partir del 19 de abril. En los EE. UU., Fitness + cuesta $ 10 por mes u $ 80 por año. También está incluido en los planes Apple One Premier. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/elgordocircuito/message

Eddie Sandoval set out to bring a traditional food from his homeland to the masses—while supporting those who shared his heritage. Betina Gozo has used her influence as a celebrity trainer to marshall resources for children in need, through the Dance With Mweyne Foundation. And Steve Umberger, co-host Maggie’s dad, used his theatrical talents in an entirely new way, inspiring dialogue between very different communities in their hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina. This past quarter, we talked to these inspiring guests—and more—on the #WeGotGoals podcast, as we explored the theme of Contributing Generously. Along the way, we were struck by the way these big thinkers followed their guts to big-hearted accomplishments, and found more than a few gems that changed the way we thought about our own altruism. We discuss: 2:26: The powerful moments that stood out for us from our interviews 6:40: The way intuition guided guests to worthwhile endeavors 10:40: How some of their efforts had multiple layers and dimensions 11:33: How they knew when it was time to dig in on a goal—and when it was time to move on 14:46: Why giving back sometimes requires separating yourself from the outcome of your efforts 16:20: Why, and how, to make an impact in your own backyard 18:02: Specificity, and how it can help you achieve somewhat nebulous-seeming aims 19:06: How we fared on our own goals for contributing generously last quarter (and the help we’d like moving forward) 20:06: What you can expect in season 4 of the #WeGotGoals podcast, heading your way after a short break! 26:51: Some news from me, your co-host Cindy Kuzma, about that next season. My heartfelt thanks to the team, and to you, our listeners, for your support these past three years—and I look forward to joining you.

Celebrity Trainer Betina Gozo and I met in a gym before "Celebrity Trainer" came before her name, though she's always had a larger-than-life spirit. With a light and infectious energy, she's a human tractor ray. It was only natural that we took our in-class relationship to the next level: after a few workouts led by Betina, I asked her to be my friend. And over these years we've seen each other grow, change and evolve. The most marked change took place for Betina after she moved away from her home-town of Chicago - first to Portland, then to Los Angeles. Today, Betina is the founder of the Dance With Mweyne Foundation, a Nike Global Master Trainer, and sits on the Women's Health Magazine's Advisory Board. She also trains famous people in her spare time. You can hear us catch up about her goals, what she's proud of and how she's changing the world on this week's episode of #WeGotGoals. 2:20: Betina shares how she tries to define herself by what she does, not by her titles, (but if you want to get fancy, she's a Nike Master Trainer and is on Women's Health's Advisory Board) 4:30: Betina talks about one of her original goals: to be the "nice version of" a celebrity trainer you've seen on reality TV. 6:35: Jeana and Betina talk about how their friendship started and evolved. 7:35: Betina talks about the life of playing in a cover band in Chicago and running the bar/bat mitzvah circuit. 9:20: Betina talks about being selected as Women's Health's Next Top Fitness Star and how she benefitted from the relationship. 12:20: Betina shares how her foundation - Dance with Mweyne - started from a trip that she took to Kenya. 15:15: Betina outlines the evolution of the foundation - fundraising, creating community and raising awareness. 18:54: Betina talks about how she's protecting herself, her sleep, and her recovery "so that she can give to others." 21:00: Betina talks about her future goal: integrating her passion for Dance with Mweyne and her life as a fitness professional. 22:20: Betina shares the mission at the heart of Dance With Mweyne - disability awareness. 24:22: Betina talks about embracing the turns of life, especially as she integrated her life as an entertainer, a fitness professional, as an aid for a friend with special needs. 26:29: Betina talks through the experience of intuition and how it guides her - for everything from starting her foundation to moving to LA. 28:20: Betina talks about her Sneaker Ball event that raised funds for Dance with Mweyne.

These days, Betina Gozo makes a living with a side of sweat as a Nike Master Trainer. But not all that long ago, the Philippines-born bombshell was playing bass in a rock band. In episode 72, we talk about the workout class that changed her life entirely (and ultimately, her career path), and how she went from hardly being able to do exercises with 5-pound dumbbells to crushing barbell-friendly workouts on the Nike Training Club app. We also talk about one of the hardest parts of adulting — balancing a career and your personal life, and the tough decisions she made after spending some time cell phone free on a work trip.
