Ranchers care about the animals they raise. That is why when it's -50 with the windchill - they are on high alert watching out for those newborn calves. Sometimes it means going to any lengths to get them warmed up quickly so they can be returned to their mothers.One rancher in southern Saskatchewan had several calves born on a very cold day. Those three newborn calves spent some time on a bathroom floor in the home of Chris Lees at Arcola, Saskatchewan. Chris will tell us about the busy start to calving season on his farm. ANDNearly all forestry biomass pellets are shipped to the European Union, which wants environmentally friendly energy solutions that reduce the need to import oil and natural gas. Work at the University of Saskatchewan is exploring turning canola and oat hulls --along with canola meal into a better biomass pellet. The main work is being done by PhD candidate Tumpa Sarkar, under the supervision of Dr. Ajay Dalai.The hope is to have a final version of the biomass pellet in one to two years. Dr. Dalai is a professor of chemical engineering at the University of Saskatchewan and holds the Canada Research Chair in bio energy.He will share the research and the ultimate goal of developing a technology that would eventually be adopted by the private sector.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Saturn's largest moon, Titan, is a world of methane rivers and lakes, icy boulders, sandy dunes, and a vast subsurface ocean. Could this distant world harbor life? A new study led by Dr. Antonin Affholder, now a fellow at ETH Zurich, suggests that Titan's ocean might support life—but only in the tiniest amounts, making it incredibly hard to find. Join communications specialist Beth Johnson as she chats with Dr. Affholder to explore what this means for the search for life beyond Earth, why organics on Titan may not provide enough fuel, and how NASA's Dragonfly mission might help answer these questions.

On Episode #175 of the PricePlow Podcast, we sit down with Juan BenÃtez-GarcÃa, Chief Sales Officer, and Sini Möttönen, Senior Application Scientist from Solar Foods at IFT First 2025 in Chicago. Broadcasting from the Sensapure Flavors booth, we explore the revolutionary Solein® protein that's literally made "out of thin air". This isn't your typical alternative protein story. Solar Foods has achieved what seemed impossible: creating complete, high-quality protein without farms, animals, or even plants. Using ancient Finnish microbes and renewable electricity, they've developed a process that bypasses photosynthesis entirely, producing protein that's 80% pure with a complete amino acid profile including 20% BCAAs. The result is a golden-colored powder with exceptional nutritional density, including naturally high levels of iron and vitamin B12. Our conversation reveals how biomass fermentation differs from precision fermentation, why Solein® tastes creamy with subtle nutty notes, and how this technology earned NASA recognition for feeding astronauts on Mars missions. From ice cream to protein bars, Juan and Sini demonstrate the versatility of this groundbreaking ingredient while explaining why it represents a fundamental shift toward sustainable, location-independent protein production. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/solar-foods-solein-175 Video: Solar Foods Brings Protein "Out of Thin Air" to IFT First 2025 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQ3hlgn0cZI Detailed Show Notes: The Science and Future of Air-Based Protein (0:00) – Introductions: Meeting the Solar Foods Team at IFT First (9:00) – The Science Behind Solein®: How Protein Gets Made from Air (13:00) – Biomass vs. Precision Fermentation: Understanding the Key Difference (18:00) – Nutritional Profile: Why 80% Protein Changes Everything (29:00) – Flavor Innovation: Partnering with Sensapure for Taste Excellence (34:00) – Versatile Applications: From Ready-to-Mix to Ice Cream (43:00) – Protein Bar Innovation: Soft Texture That Lasts (52:00) – Space Applications: NASA Recognition and Mars Mission Potential (1:00:00) – Global Flavors and Ice Cream Success (1:04:00) – Market Timeline and Consumer Availability (1:07:00) – Contact Information and Industry Connections Where to Follow Solar Foods and Connect with the Team Juan BenÃtez-GarcÃa: LinkedIn Sini Möttönen: LinkedIn Solar Foods: Company Website LinkedIn Learn more about Solein® on PricePlow Sign up for PricePlow's Solar Foods news alerts Thank you to Juan and Sini for sharing the incredible story of Solein® and demonstrating how ancient Finnish microbes, renewable electricity, and innovative engineering are revolutionizing protein production. ...

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Good news from the offshore wind industry today. Vattenfall has named a new leader for its wind business division. Catrin Jung will take over as Head of Business Area Wind starting July first. Jung currently leads the company's offshore wind operations. She replaces Helene Bistrom, who is leaving the company. Jung joined Vattenfall in two thousand two. She has managed some of the company's largest investments in recent years. The wind division handles both offshore and onshore wind projects. It also manages large solar and battery projects. Jung says staying focused on fossil freedom is more important than ever in these uncertain times. The Netherlands reached a major renewable energy milestone last year. Renewable energy made up nearly twenty percent of the country's total energy use in twenty twenty four. That's up from seventeen point four percent in twenty twenty three. Statistics Netherlands released the preliminary data. The increase comes mainly from new offshore wind turbines and more biodiesel use in transportation. The overall renewable energy consumption reached three hundred fifty eight petajoules. That's a fifteen percent increase from twenty twenty three. Biomass remained the largest renewable source. Wind came second, followed by solar power. Renewables were mostly used for electricity at sixty percent. Heat and cooling accounted for twenty eight percent. Transport fuels made up twelve percent. The share of renewables has more than doubled compared to five years ago. A major wind energy project in Quebec has secured its funding. Invenergy and a consortium of 209 municipalities and territories in Eastern Quebec announced the closing of one point one billion dollars Canadian in financing. The money will fund the PPAW 1 Wind Energy Centre. The work will create three hundred fifty jobs during construction. Construction will happen throughout twenty twenty five and twenty twentysix. Commercial operation is expected in late twenty twenty six. Once operational, the project will add three hundred fifty megawatts to the local grid. France has achieved a renewable energy first. EDF Renewables has fully commissioned the country's first floating wind farm. The Provence Grand Large wind farm has a power capacity of twenty five megawatts. The farm features three floating wind turbines installed seventeen kilometers off the France's Mediterranean coast This is the first floating wind farm in France and across the entire Mediterranean basin. The project uses unique anchoring technology. Siemens Gamesa built the turbines. They're installed on floats with tight anchor lines. The technology was inspired by systems used to stabilize oil platforms. SBM Offshore and IFP Energies Nouvelles developed this technology. It's suitable for deep sea areas and provides excellent float stability. Bernard Fontana, Chairman and CEO of EDF, says the project helps diversify renewable energy sources. He calls it an important project for France's energy sovereignty. The experience will help with construction of EDF's second floating wind farm, Mediterranee Grand Large. EDF was awarded that contract in December twenty twenty four.

I denne RumNyt kommer vi igen vidt omkring. Vi følger op på både SpinLaunch og Biomass, hører om mærkelige exoplaneter om brune dværgstjerne, rumfartøjer der skal transportere ting ned fra kredsløb, og vender også kort balladen om molekylerne på K2-18b, der måske og måske ikke er tegn på liv. I vores hovedhistorie sætter vi fokus på rumstationer og fremtiden for mere eller mindre permamente ophold i kredsløb om Jorden. Vi er blandt andet blevet inspireret af besætningsskiftet på den kinesiske Tiangong-rumstation for nylig, men ser også på status for ISS og på nogle af de kommercielle projekter, der er under udvikling.

Note: This is the second part of the interview that didn't make it into the radio version. The podcast version includes the entire interview.-----Biomass energy, that is, burning pelletized wood for electricity generation, is a classic false climate solution. It has been devastating forests and communities in the Southeast for years, and the Biomass industry is dead set on expanding into the Pacific Northwest. We did a deep dive into Biomass a couple of years ago, which you can find in the Coast Range Radio podcast feed.But with the Trump administration and Congressional Republicans (along with some Democrats) attempting to gut protections for forests, now is a good time to learn from activists in the South and check in on the state of Biomass here in the Northwest.So I'm joined by two amazing guests, Dr Treva Gear with The Dogwood Alliance, and Brenna Bell of 350PDX.While you're here, please make sure you're subscribed, and consider leaving us a nice review on your podcast app!My email is coastrangeradio@gmail.com, reach out anytime with questions, feedback, or just to say hi.Show Notes:https://dogwoodalliance.org/https://350pdx.org/ax-drax/https://www.nobigbiomasspnw.org/"Burned: Are Trees the New Coal?" - https://burnedthemovie.com/Support the showSupport the show

We did a deep dive into Biomass a couple of years ago, which you can find in the Coast Range Radio podcast feed.But with the Trump administration and Congressional Republicans (along with some Democrats) attempting to gut protections for forests, now is a good time to learn from activists in the South and check in on the state of Biomass here in the Northwest.So I'm joined by two amazing guests, Dr Treva Gear with The Dogwood Alliance, and Brenna Bell of 350PDX.While you're here, please make sure you're subscribed, and consider leaving us a nice review on your podcast app!My email is coastrangeradio@gmail.com, reach out anytime with questions, feedback, or just to say hi.Show Notes:https://dogwoodalliance.org/https://350pdx.org/ax-drax/https://www.nobigbiomasspnw.org/"Burned: Are Trees the New Coal?" - https://burnedthemovie.com/Support the show

I denne RumNyt sætter vi i vores hovedhistorie fokus på ESAs Biomass-mission, der snart skal sendes i kredsløb, og i de næste 5 år skal kortlægge og måle biomassen især i de store tropiske skove og jungler rundt om på kloden. Biomass er udstyret med en smart radar, der gør det muligt at skabe et detaljeret og dynamisk 3D-kort over bevoksningen på steder hvor man ellers aldrig ville kunne samle data. Missionen er i øvrigt en del af ESAs serie af store Earth Explorers missioner. I de korte rumnyheder skal vi som sædvanligt langt ud i hjørnerne. Vi fortæller blandt andet om en kommende supernova som ligger i vores kosmiske baghave, om udviklingen af ultrapræcise atomure og om hvordan vi stadig venter på de første observationer på ESOs ELT – Extremely Large Telescope. Endelig skal vi også kort vende den (ret spekulative) plan om at hente en af verdens første kunstige satellitter, Vanguard 1, der blev opsendt helt tilbage i 1958, men som nogen drømmer om at bringe tilbage til Jorden igen...

Rebuilding fisheries in Canada: Capelin biomass is only at 16% of its pre-collapse level, which spells disaster for northern cod's recovery. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin breaks down the troubling state of Canada's east coast fisheries. With DFO ignoring science-based recommendations, capelin is being harvested despite dangerously low numbers—and the ripple effects are hurting northern cod and entire coastal ecosystems. Northern cod cannot recover without capelin, their primary prey, yet management plans still treat these species separately. Andrew explores the science behind this ecological link, why Oceana Canada is calling for an immediate pause on the capelin fishery, and how outdated management approaches are failing both fish and fishers. It's time for bold leadership, honest science communication, and smarter fisheries policy.

This week we break down Norway's proposed overhaul of its aquaculture licensing system—a seismic shift that could redefine global standards. From scrapping biomass-based licenses to introducing sea lice emission quotas and a mortality tax, the new framework flips traditional input-based regulation on its head. We walk through the 115-page white paper to unpack what this means for farms, investors, and suppliers alike—and why this policy could drive both innovation and industry shakeups.For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.
“We've worked with partners like AcelorMittal… and oil and gas refineries. Emissions that would've been destined for the atmosphere are piped into our bioreactor and our magnificent microbes turn that gas into ethanol. When we pull out that ethanol, we can send it a lot of different places. You can go to On, Adidas, Athleta and buy products made by these mighty microbes from steel mill emissions. We actually flew a Virgin Atlantic flight from Orlando to London with 50 percent of the fuel in that plane made from our ethanol.” Zara Summers on Electric Ladies Podcast Addressing the climate crisis involves confronting some enormous challenges, from decarbonizing aviation to reducing fashion's carbon footprint. Fortunately, technology and innovation provide an opportunity to make significant strides forward. Meet LanzaTech, a company turning carbon dioxide into the raw materials and energy we need for our lives. Listen to Zara Summers, Chief Science Officer at LanzaTech, as she explains how the company is harnessing the power of nature's oldest metabolism, the mighty microbe. This innovation is turning greenhouse gases into everyday materials like shoes and clothing, sustainable aviation fuel for our jets, and even fish feed! You'll hear about: How LanzaTech transforms captured industrial emissions into valuable materials and fuels. The global brands working with LanzaTech (and how you can spot fabrics made from recycled emissions). How the technology is driving a circular economy in fashion and textiles. The uses of LanzaTech's protein-rich biomass in food and feed. Plus, advice on making a career transition. “Just jump in. Because even if it crashes and burns, it's experience and you learn no matter up and down inside it. But if you keep doing the same thing you've always done, you're robbing yourself of those opportunities. Even small risks – putting your hand up for a project where you might know 20 percent of what it takes to do it. Gosh, isn't that the best way to motivate yourself to learn something new?” Zara Summers on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.
