Hi there! Feel free to drop us a text if you enjoy the episode.In this episode of the New England Endurance Podcast, we sit down with Firefly Bicycles co-founders Tyler Evans and Kevin Wolfson to explore the craft, philosophy, and real-world decision-making behind world-class custom titanium bikes.From geometry choices and material tradeoffs to bike fitting instincts honed in the peloton, Tyler and Kevin pull back the curtain on how Firefly designs bikes for how people actually ride. We dig into the myth of the “quiver killer,” why one bike can't always do it all—especially in New England—and how compromises show up when terrain gets rough.We also cover what it's like to order a Firefly: realistic build timelines, what customers should (and shouldn't) control in the design process, and what carbon-neutral manufacturing looks like in practice—not just on paper.Whether you're dreaming about a custom build or simply want to understand why some bikes feel right and others don't, this conversation is a deep dive into intention, craftsmanship, and choosing the right tool for the ride.Key TakeawaysThe “quiver killer” bike isn't for everyone — especially in New England, where rough mixed terrain often demands purpose-built tools.Tire clearance alone doesn't define versatility — geometry and ride intent matter just as much as tire size.Custom bikes shine when rider intent is clear — the best outcomes happen when riders share goals and trust the builder.Bike fit is about reading the rider, not just numbers — experience, posture, and movement tell a deeper story.Custom doesn't mean infinite choice — knowing what to leave to the builder can dramatically improve the final result.Great craftsmanship includes invisible details — many of Firefly's most important design decisions are ones customers never see.Carbon-neutral manufacturing is an active process — not a marketing label, but a set of real operational commitmentsThis podcast embarks on a journey to showcase and celebrate the endurance sports community in New England.

Todd has Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Jason Lisle back in the studio today for Wretched Radio. Segment 1 • UFOs are a perennially hot topic, but most have a reasonable explanation. • Belief in aliens often fills a void for people in the realm of ultimate questions. • We're not alone, because God is already here—and He's revealed the truth. Segment 2 • Most UFO sightings are predictable science, not extraterrestrial visitors. • Scripture makes Earth the center of God's plan—no need for alien saviors. • The burden isn't on Christians to disprove aliens, but on skeptics to prove them. Segment 3 • The world's climate has always changed, and warming has historically been a positive thing. • Modern panic relies on conjectural models, not measurable facts. • Carbon isn't the enemy; it fuels food, life, and growth. Segment 4 • Climate alarmism thrives on fear because fear drives power and control. • God promised stable seasons—global collapse isn't coming. • Using technology to heal honors God; using it to replace Him repeats Babel. ___ Thanks for listening!

This episode features Dr. Jocelyn Johnson with STgenetics, a speaker at the 2025 ADSA Breeding and Genetics Symposium: Creating Carbon-Friendly Cows and Leveraging Omics to Improve the Sustainability of Dairy Production.Dr. Johnson's presentation was titled “Advancing dairy sustainability through feed-efficient genetics and genomics: Research insights and applications.” She gives an overview of her talk, which focused on data STgenetics has collected and how the company has applied that data to help their customers be more sustainable. She goes on to describe some of the residual feed intake research they've conducted in dairy cows. (4:20)STgenetics has invested in feed efficiency technology and has shown that selection for improved feed efficiency is correlated to a lower carbon footprint. Dr. Johnson talks about the heritability of feed efficiency compared to other traits we select for in the dairy industry.  (8:16)Dr. Pralle asks Dr. Johnson if STgenetics is measuring emissions from cows in their research. The company has partnered with Texas A&M to measure methane emissions in heifers divergently selected for feed efficiency. They found that more efficient animals produced less methane. Since that pilot project, STgenetics has purchased equipment to measure emissions at their own research facilities and has collected 2-3 years of data on beef, beef on dairy, and Holstein populations. Dr. Johnson emphasizes that the relationship between methane emissions and high milk production is somewhat of a balancing act. (11:29)The group discusses feed additives purported to decrease methane emissions and the differences in rumen microbiomes between high and low efficiency animals. They also talk about how best to get information and technology in front of producers.  (17:59)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

A assinatura do contrato de energia de reserva entre a Diamante Geração de Energia e o Governo Federal, com validade até 2040, foi apontada como uma das principais conquistas de 2025 para o setor carbonífero catarinense. O acordo garante segurança jurídica e econômica a uma cadeia produtiva responsável por cerca de 21 mil empregos diretos e indiretos e por uma movimentação anual estimada em R$ 6 bilhões na economia regional. A avaliação foi feita pela presidente do Sindicato da Indústria de Extração de Carvão do Estado de Santa Catarina (Siecesc – Carvão +), Astrid Barato, durante entrevista concedida nesta terça-feira (23) ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias. Segundo ela, o ano foi marcado por avanços importantes tanto na área econômica quanto ambiental, consolidando um novo momento para o setor. Entre os destaques, Astrid ressaltou o desenvolvimento de projetos de pesquisa e inovação no Centro Tecnológico da SATC, voltados à transição e à sustentabilidade da atividade carbonífera. As iniciativas incluem estudos sobre captura de carbono, além da produção de fertilizantes por meio de zeólitas obtidas a partir das cinzas do carvão, ampliando o aproveitamento de resíduos e agregando valor à cadeia produtiva. Outro ponto relevante foi o avanço na Ação Civil Pública (ACP) do Carvão, com a retomada das reuniões do Grupo Técnico de Assessoramento à Execução da Sentença (GTA), por determinação da Justiça Federal. O grupo discute parâmetros técnicos para a recuperação ambiental das áreas impactadas pela mineração no passado. Atualmente, cerca de 55% dessas áreas já passaram ou estão passando por obras de recuperação ambiental, resultado considerado significativo pelo setor. O Siecesc – Carvão + encerra o ano também com progressos nas tratativas para a liberação do uso de áreas da ACP localizadas em regiões densamente urbanizadas, o que pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento ordenado desses espaços. No campo social, o sindicato mantém o projeto Carvão Amigo, que presta auxílio a 12 entidades filantrópicas do Sul Catarinense, além de apoiar iniciativas como o Proerd, da Polícia Militar, os Protetores Ambientais da Polícia Militar Ambiental, o Projeto Golfinhos, do Corpo de Bombeiros, e o Pelotão da Esperança. Já no eixo esportivo, o Carvão + atua como patrocinador master do projeto Tigrinhos e do Campeonato Regional da Larm. Para Astrid Barato, os resultados de 2025 demonstram que o setor carbonífero segue em transformação, buscando conciliar desenvolvimento econômico, responsabilidade ambiental e compromisso social com a região Sul de Santa Catarina.

In this episode of Created to Reign, Dr. David Legates revisits the most controversial sentence he's ever spoken: “Carbon dioxide contributes very little to the greenhouse effect.” That single line has earned him everything from eye-rolling to outright insults—but it also reveals how deeply misunderstood the science has become. Dr. Legates breaks down, in plain language, why CO₂ is only a minor player compared to other greenhouse gases, why the famous “1.5°C tipping point” is more politics than physics, and why doubling CO₂ isn't the doomsday trigger many claim it to be. If you've ever wondered whether the alarm matches the actual science, this episode cuts through the noise.But he doesn't stop there. Dr. Legates tackles popular myths head-on—from claims that the greenhouse effect violates basic thermodynamics to conspiracy theories suggesting 19th-century physicists engineered a global warming hoax. With clarity and a bit of humor, he explains how the greenhouse effect really works, why climatologists aren't ignoring physics, and why Earth's stable, life-supporting climate is something to marvel at—not fear. It's a straightforward, no-nonsense look at climate science that challenges assumptions without the panic.https://global-tipping-points.org/the-dartington-declaration/ https://climate-change-theory.com/https://climate-change-theory.com/Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.

Mexican Navy forensic expert Dr. José Zalce details the forensic analysis of Peru's Nazca mummies: the tridactyl bodies he's certain represent a genuine non-human species discovery, in episode 230 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Dr. José Zalce is a Mexican Navy forensic physician with decades of experience conducting anatomical and forensic investigations for the military. Trained as a medical doctor and forensic specialist, Zalce was invited to Peru in 2017 to examine a series of anomalous desiccated bodies discovered near the Nazca region. Working directly with the specimens, he participated in on-site observation, X-ray imaging, CT tomography, carbon-14 dating coordination, and comparative anatomical analysis. Zalce has repeatedly emphasized that his conclusions are based on physical evidence and standard forensic procedure, and that the bodies he examined show no signs of assembly, fabrication, or modern interference.In this conversation, Faust and Dr. Zalce walk step by step through the scientific findings surrounding the Nazca mummies, beginning with the initial discovery and extending through years of imaging, dating, and anatomical comparison. Zalce explains why he believes the bodies represent at least two, and possibly three, previously undocumented biological species, and describes the professional consequences he faced after refusing to retract his findings. The discussion explores preservation methods, skeletal structure, reproductive biology, metallic implants, and the broader implications of acknowledging non-human intelligence within Earth's evolutionary history.In this episode:

A recent study reveals that bedroom ventilation plays an essential role in sleep quality. Carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels need to remain below 1,000 ppm, ideally under 800 ppm, for deeper, uninterrupted sleep Opening windows can help with airflow, but it's not always ideal due to outdoor pollutants, noise, or security risks. In such cases, a ventilation system is a safer and more reliable option Air purifiers filter indoor air but do not introduce fresh air. To maintain optimal air quality, pair filtration systems with proper ventilation rather than relying on one system alone Monitoring CO₂ levels in your bedroom helps ensure proper air exchange. Using a reliable CO₂ meter provides insight into ventilation efficiency and allows adjustments to improve sleep quality To further improve indoor air quality, regularly clean or replace air filters, minimize the use of synthetic air fresheners, scented candles, and harsh cleaning chemicals, opt for natural, nontoxic alternatives, and air out your home safely

The Sustainability Journey
Can we really put a price on nature? This nature‑finance expert says we must.

The Sustainability Journey

When you clear a forest to plant maize and make charcoal, you've already put a price on nature—the future cash flows from the maize and the wood. The problem is that price is far too low. In this episode of The Samuele Tini Show, I speak with Josep Oriol, Managing Partner at Okavango Capital Partners and a leading nature‑finance expert working across Sub‑Saharan Africa. A Catalan who fell in love with African wildlife as a child, Josep trained as a lawyer, moved into venture capital and banking, then finally to Southern Africa to build a different kind of private equity firm—one that backs nature‑positive businesses whose performance depends on how they treat forests, soil and water. Today, Okavango‑backed companies help protect around 8–9 million hectares of land (about twice the size of Switzerland) and create income streams for hundreds of thousands of rural people. We dive into: The mispricing of nature: every land‑use decision—from forest to maize field—is already a price signal, and why that's dangerous if we ignore the true value of ecosystems. Forest carbon in practice: the story of BioCarbon Partners, REDD+ projects, and rural families living on ~$20/month in cash who now earn income by keeping forests standing. Carbon market backlash: Josep's response to critics of carbon credits, and why, compared to agriculture, mining or logging, high‑integrity projects are often far more transparent and generous to local communities. Three big opportunity themes: smarter agriculture and agroforestry to boost yields and cut waste, tech for soil, post‑harvest, insurance and finance, monetising ecosystem services via tourism, carbon, biodiversity and water credits—and why fuelwood is still the elephant in the room. Why classic 5‑year 10x PE funds don't fit Africa: and how Okavango uses longer horizons and flexible instruments (loans with equity options, convertibles, prefs) instead of only straight equity. We close with Josep's advice for entrepreneurs in nature‑based sectors—live with existential threat, love cash flow and margins, and assume everything will take twice the time and three times the money—and his vision of Africa's future looking more like South Korea or Malaysia than Europe, if we get the nature piece right. If you care about where climate capital should actually go, this is a sharp, grounded conversation from inside the deal flow.

In this episode of Plan Sea, hosts Anna Madlener and Wil Burns sit down with researchers Dr. Leila Kittu, Dr. Giulia Faucher, and Dr. Charly Moras to discuss the latest updates from the Ocean Alk-Align consortium's exploration of ocean alkalinity enhancement's (OAE) environmental safety and efficiency. Representing expertise from the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research and the University of Hamburg, Leila, Giulia, and Charly join Anna and Wil to share valuable insights on what's needed for monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) and environmental safety assessments.Ocean Alk-Align is dedicated to evaluating the efficacy and durability of carbon uptake and storage;  environmental safety and potential co-benefits; and MRV requirements of various OAE approaches. Leila, Giulia, and Charly discuss how understanding OAE's efficiency — commonly measured by how many tons of carbon dioxide is removed per ton of material added to the ocean — is incredibly nuanced. The group's research suggests we must also consider factors such as dilution, sinking, and horizontal mixing when discussing the efficiency of various OAE approaches in different real-world settings.To evaluate OAE's environmental safety and better understand how scientists can protect living ecosystems without sacrificing efficiency, Leila, Giulia, and Charly discuss mesocosm experiments that were conducted. The team gradually included multiple species of plankton to identify how biological life responds to seawater changes. Mesocosm research is advantageous for breaking down complex problems into manageable pieces — but is limited in terms of scale, duration, and ability to capture higher trophic levels.Looking ahead, the group called for more robust frameworks for environmental safety assessment and thresholds as OAE projects move towards field research. The group argues that the broader benefit of carbon removal seeks to outweigh the potential risk of interfering in delicate ocean environments, and requires careful consideration and standardization across these frameworks. Ocean Alk-Align's work aims to provide a scientifically-rigorous, informed pathway to weighing this “give and take” decision.Plan Sea is a semi-weekly podcast exploring ocean-based climate solutions, brought to you by the Carbon to Sea Initiative and the American University Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal.ACRONYMS/CONCEPTS:OAE: ocean alkalinity enhancementMRV: monitoring, reporting, and verificationmCDR: marine carbon dioxide removalOAE-PIIP: Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement Pelagic Impact Intercomparison ProjectPlan Sea is a semi-weekly podcast exploring ocean-based climate solutions, brought to you by the Carbon to Sea Initiative & the American University Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal.

What if you could build a yacht that combined the speed and efficiency of a racing craft with the grandeur of a floating villa? That was the vision founder Peter Johnstone brought to life when he launched Gunboat in 2002, creating an entirely new category of high-performance cruising catamaran. Gunboat's twin-hull design provides remarkable stability compared to traditional monohulls, allowing the deck to stay flat and maintain pace even in challenging sea conditions. Carbon fiber is used to construct the catamarans for extreme lightness and exceptional durability that lasts forever. The lightweight design isn't just about speed, but also sustainability. Lighter boats sail more and motor less. With solar integration, electric systems, and ongoing research into recycled composites and bio-resilient materials, these vessels represent responsible seamanship for the future. We traveled to Gunboat's purpose-built shipyard in La Grande-Motte in southern France to meet Rodolphe Cadoret, Marketing Director at Gunboat. Rodolphe walks us through every stage of the building process, from the composite workshop through to assembly, carpentry, and the meticulous painting rooms where flawless metallic finishes emerge. He gives us a full picture of how, supported by PTC partner 4CAD, Gunboat uses digital precision to transform physical performance on the water. PTC's Brian Thompson then joins us to explain how Creo's model-based approach and integrated surfacing capabilities enable Gunboat to accelerate time to market dramatically. Find out more about Gunboat here.Find out more about Creo here.Your host is Paul Haimes from industrial software company PTC.Episodes are released bi-weekly.

Sequestering Carbon in Building Materials, with Dr. Sabbie Miller

ClimateBreak

Introduction to the SolutionUC Davis researchers are examining a novel approach to combating climate change: turning our buildings into carbon sinks. The solution is based on incorporating biochar, a carbon-rich material obtained from plant material, into common construction materials like concrete, brick, and asphalt. By embedding carbon directly into long-lasting infrastructure, this approach reduces atmospheric CO₂ and also transforms one of the most carbon-intensive industries in the world into a tool for climate mitigation.Background: How Carbon Storage in Building Materials WorksBiochar is created through pyrolysis, a process involving heating organic material, such as crop residues or wood waste, in a low-oxygen environment. This process locks in carbon that plants absorb during photosynthesis and prevents it from being re-released into the atmosphere through decay or burning.The research team at UC Davis, headed by Professor Sabbie Miller and Dr. Elisabeth Van Roijen, proposes the use of biochar as a partial replacement for the materials in concrete and other construction compounds. Since more than 20 billion tons of concrete are produced every year by the construction sector, substituting 10% of that with biochar-based mixtures could store up to 1 gigaton of CO₂ annually, or the equivalent yearly emissions from Japan.Unlike temporary carbon storage methods, like soil burial, embedding biochar in durable infrastructure ensures long-term sequestration, potentially spanning decades or even centuries. It also leverages the global scale of construction as a medium for climate action.Advantages of This SolutionApart from net carbon emissions reduction, the introduction of biochar-enriched building materials has tangible engineering benefits. It has been found that the addition of biochar can enhance thermal insulation, fire resistance, and durability in some uses. The process also fits well within the circular economy principles because of the organic waste used and reduced need for virgin materials.Because construction is already a high-volume, resource-intensive industry, integrating biochar into existing supply chains could make climate-positive practices scalable and economically viable without requiring dramatic infrastructure overhauls. Equally important, this solution provides dual benefits: supporting both carbon sequestration and the development of sustainable materials.Drawbacks and CritiquesThe approach faces several scientific and logistical obstacles despite such a promising premise. Producing biochar requires energy in quite significant quantities, with sourcing biomass at large scales risking unforeseen ecological impacts such as nutrient depletion or habitat disruption. Some critics even ask whether its broad adoption might inadvertently encourage the removal of older buildings in favor of the construction of newer, carbon-storing ones, offsetting any climate gains.Another factor is the life cycle of the biochar-infused materials themselves. While they can store carbon for decades, it remains undetermined how these materials at the end of a building's life are to be managed to avoid re-release of CO₂. Future policy frameworks and recycling technologies will be required to address these challenges if there is to be long-term effectiveness.About the GuestDr. Sabbie Miller is an Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Davis. Her research focuses on sustainable infrastructure materials, life-cycle assessment, and reducing the environmental footprint of the construction industry.Further ReadingUC Davis News: Storing Carbon in Buildings Could Help Address Climate ChangeNature Geoscience: Carbon Sequestration Using BiocharScience Magazine: Building Materials as Carbon SinksScienceDirect: Alternative Sequestration Options in Construction MaterialsFor a transcript, please visit https://climatebreak.org/sequestering-carbon-in-building-materials-with-dr-sabbie-miller/

My guest is Grant Canary, founder and CEO of Mast Reforestation, a company rebuilding forests after catastrophic wildfires — and reinventing carbon credits so that reforestation can actually fund itself.Mast takes the most expensive part of post-fire recovery — dealing with hundreds of dead, unstable, methane-emitting trees — and turns it into a high-integrity carbon removal credit. The fire-killed biomass gets buried in engineered clay “vaults” that lock away carbon for centuries, and the revenue pays for restoring forests with native seed, nursery-grown seedlings, and good old human labor. It's the super-sexy carbon accounting we desperately need.We get into:Grant's origin story: the high-school teacher, the brutally honest friend, and the maggot factory (this is a true story)From DroneSeed to Mast: why drones weren't enough and what really unlocks reforestationWhat high-severity “Mordor” fires do to ecosystems — and why invasives take overHow biomass burial works: clay soils, lasagna layers, 24/7 monitoring, and 5 different verification processesWhy high-quality carbon credits are hard — and why they matterWho buys these credits (tech, airlines, real estate, Shopify, consulting firms) and the incentives behind eachWhy relying on altruism won't scale — but pricing ecosystem services willHow modern carbon accounting sets the stage for the actual holy grail: a price on carbonLink:Mast Reforestation: https://www.mastreforest.com/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show:https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

The COP30 climate summit is taking place in the Brazilian city of Belém, a gateway to the Amazon rainforest, which continues to face widespread deforestation. We all know that our climate is changing and that we are largely responsible for this, but we can't tackle the problem unless we understand what's going on.One scientist who's done more than most to rectify this is Professor Pierre Friedlingstein. He's a prominent climate scientist and Chair in Mathematical Modelling of the Climate System at Exeter University. His models have transformed our understanding of climate change, revealing a complex dynamical system with carbon at its centre, cycling between the atmosphere, oceans and land, to directly influence the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.Pierre is actively involved in assessing the state of our climate through the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and, as director of the Global Carbon Budget, estimates the remaining amount of carbon dioxide that can be emitted before we breach our global climate targets. It's the ultimate test of effective climate action and the latest annual update will be released at COP. Pierre explains how we can all play our part to reduce carbon emissions, and he practises what he preaches - he won't be flying to COP this year so as to minimise his own carbon footprint.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced by Beth Eastwood Executive Producer: Alexandra Feachem A BBC Studios Production

Temple University’s Kornberg School of Dentistry is looking to open its rural dental education center and clinic at the site of a former Rite Aid in downtown Tamaqua. Temple has partnered with the Tamaqua Area Community Partnership on the project. The center awaits approval by the Temple University Board of Trustees. The proposed center would have 24 chairs and will host 20 dental students on the rural dentistry track. Dental students will complete the final two years of dental school at the Tamaqua campus and provide dental services to residents of Schuylkill, Carbon and Luzerne counties. Students will live in downtown Tamaqua, in an old department store that will be renovated into apartments. Temple told WVIA earlier this year that the dental school will cover students’ housing costs, which will be financially supported by tuition. The clinic also is expected to create about 20 new jobs. Temple’s dentistry school also started discussions with Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) about a dental hygiene program that will train six to 10 students. Argall chaired a public hearing through the Senate Majority Policy Committee about dental care shortages in rural Pennsylvania. Renovations on both the education center and student housing are expected to begin before the end of this year.

All the cool kids are doing it! ------------- When talking about climate change, it's easy to get caught up in the scientific terms. Carbon emissions, parts per million, global average temperature, etc. But I always want to make sure I'm framing this conversation in the human impacts that result from the crisis. That's why I wanted to have Sharon Lerner back on the show this week. Sharon Lerner is a journalist and author at ProPublica, where she cover health and the environment and the agencies that govern them, including the Environmental Protection Agency. Her recent piece is "Trump's Anti-Green Agenda Could Lead to 1.3 Million More Climate Deaths. The Poorest Countries Will Be Impacted Most." Lerner and experts conducted an analysis of how the Trump Administration's expansion of fossil fules and rolback of clean enegy and other climate initiatives would impact people around the globe. In this conversation, she explains how that modeling was conducted, what areas of the Global South will be impacted the most, and the questions on impacts that remain unanswered. Lerner also discusses the differences in covering this Trump Administration versus the president's first term and we explore some of the more popular talking points being used against climate action.  Read "Trump's Anti-Green Agenda Could Lead to 1.3 Million More Climate Deaths.

Drylands play a critical role in global ecosystems as well as the carbon cycle. We talk with ecologist Brooke Osborne about the fascinating world of biogeochemistry and dryland science. Covering 40% of the Earth's surface and hosting a third of the human population, heterogeneous drylands have low resource availability and therefore are highly sensitive to climatic changes. We discuss Brooke's ongoing research into soil carbon storage and sequestration, particularly in the context of grazing practices and land management.

3/4. Price Discovery, Trade Policy, and Government Market Distortions — Terry Anderson (Editor) — Andersondiscusses Timothy Fitzgerald's analysis demonstrating that border carbon adjustment mechanisms frequently disguise protectionist trade policies, aligning with the "bootleggers and Baptists" theoretical model. Anderson stresses that authentic price discovery in financial markets is absolutely crucial for effective climate adaptation. However, government intervention, including subsidized insurance programs for flood and crop losses, systematically distorts accurate price signals, preventing consumers from developing effective behavioral and economic adaptations to genuine environmental risks. 1905

A pool route looks peaceful from the curb, but the work sits where chemistry, electricity, plumbing, and customer trust collide. We brought on Sean Reardon, the insurance broker serving the United Pool Association, to unpack the real risks pool technicians face and why generic coverage so often misses the mark. From the UPA's origins as a mutual support network to the evolution of group policies built for technicians, we explore how smart coverage, good training, and honest reporting can turn worst-day scenarios into manageable claims.We walk through claim stories that stick. A heater installation near a shared wall led to alleged carbon monoxide poisoning when someone powered it up before venting was complete—an expensive reminder that pollution exclusions can swallow a “normal” pool tech job unless your policy is modified. A veteran pro mixed the wrong chemicals and triggered leaks across a skimmer line, proving that one rushed moment can mean weeks of remediation. A new hire “frisbeed” trichlor tabs into a dark-surfaced pool and branded it with round stains. And in a painful mix-up, chlorine meant for a dirty fountain ended up in a koi pond, wiping out prized fish within an hour.Sign up for UPA Insurance here:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfRQjHJGFLIOqZVzHm4_PNUz8Tokl_InR0wjyp5ahO93h3Z0Q/viewform?usp=send_form• UPA's origin as chapters covering routes and sick leave• Why group insurance tailored to pool techs saves money and risk• Pollution exclusions and how endorsements change outcomes• Carbon monoxide claim and the importance of duty to defend• Chemical handling errors and skimmer line damage• Training gaps leading to “hockey puck” stains• Koi pond chlorination loss and rapid response• Cameras, transparency, and reporting incidents early• Practical habits to avoid co-mingling and mislabeling• How to join UPA and find the sign-up formThe easiest way to find the sign-up form for UPA is to go to my website, swimmingpoollearning.com.
