Podcasts about Carbon cycle

In what started out as a May Day date (that's a truckload of compost in Rick and Elara's world), a visit to San Pasqual Valley Soils struck black gold (again, compost).  In one of the most fortuitous spontaneous Backyard Green Films conversations yet, an extremely knowledgeable dirt farmer by the name of Craig Kolodge, PhD (“Dr. K.” to pretty much everyone) gave an impromptu interview, surrounded by towers of amendment and beeping trucks full of manure, compost and wood chips.  Elara was in heaven, with the conversation chock full of words such as “nematode,” ”sequestration,” “carbon cycle,” and other sciency stuff.Don't ever say there's no such thing as romance anymore, especially in Springtime. Links:https://spvsoils.com/https://spvsoils.com/craig-m-kolodge/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Dayhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dionysushttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphroditehttps://clairemontonline.com/event-6080495Support the show

Join us this month on GeOCHemISTea as we sit down with Brittany Hupp, Assistant Professor at George Mason University in the Department of Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Earth Sciences. Brittany specializes in micropaleontology, sedimentology, and low-temperature geochemistry, exploring ancient climates and ocean conditions to better understand modern environmental challenges.In this episode, Brittany shares her unconventional path into geosciences—from a dairy farm in rural Ohio to oceanic research cruises—and offers practical advice for aspiring geochemists seeking interdisciplinary careers. She introduces listeners to the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), a pivotal ancient global warming event used as a critical analog to current climate change. Brittany explains how geochemical proxies, such as stable isotopes and trace elements in microfossils (foraminifera), illuminate past temperature shifts, ocean acidification, and hydrological changes.Tune in for captivating stories from life at sea, including the social dynamics aboard research vessels, and discover how paleoclimatology provides valuable insights into Earth's climate sensitivity and future scenarios.Grab your tea... it's time to spill!For this episode we read:The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum: A Perturbation of Carbon Cycle, Climate, and Biosphere with Implications for the Future (McInerney and Wing, 2011)Diagenetic Attenuation of Carbon Isotope Excursion Recorded by Planktic Foraminifers During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (Kozdon et al., 2018)Development of a novel empirical framework for interpreting geological carbon isotope excursions, with implications for the rate of carbon injections across the PETM (Turner and Ridgwell, 2016)Individual foraminiferal analyses: a review of current and emerging geochemical techniques (Fehrenbacher et al., 2024)

In this episode, Julien is sitting down with Paul Hawken—visionary thinker, entrepreneur, author and founder of Project Drawdown. A leading, pioneering voice in the regeneration movement, Paul challenges the way we approach climate, biodiversity, and corporate responsibility. Not only doing less harm is not enough—businesses must actively do good. But to truly transform, we need more than new solutions; we need a fundamental, ontological shift in how we see the world and our role within it. His latest book, Carbon: The Book of Life, reminds us that all life-supporting systems are deeply interconnected.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on rethinking business, reimagining our relationship with the planet, and moving beyond sustainability toward true regeneration.Hosted by Ausha.

To the majority of humankind, rocks may appear to be static, timeless objects, but not to the geologist Marcia Bjornerud. In her mind, rocks are rich pieces of text that have evolved (and continue to evolve) across millennia, and are therefore incredibly timeful. “They almost demand reading,” Bjornerud says on this episode of Time Sensitive. “You have the feeling that you're communicating with some larger, wilder, more ancient wisdom.” A two-time Senior Fulbright Scholar, a professor of geology at Lawrence University in Wisconsin, and an expert on the geophysics of earthquakes and mountain building, Bjornerud serves as a sort of geological translator of these “texts,” reading their encrypted messages and stories—tracing their etymologies, essentially—and from there inferring why things are the way they are. Bjornerud's translations shine across her four books, including the newly published Turning to Stone: Discovering the Subtle Wisdom of Rocks.On the episode, she discusses the power of looking at the world through a Deep Time lens, why we're currently in what she considers a “golden age” of geoscience, and what a “time literate” society would mean for humanity and the planet.Special thanks to our Season 10 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Marcia Bjornerud[15:18] Timefulness: How Thinking Like a Geologist Can Help Save the World[07:16] Turning to Stone: Discovering the Subtle Wisdom of Rocks[07:16] “Studying Stones Can Rock Your World”[07:16] Geopedia: A Brief Compendium of Geologic Curiosities[07:16] Carbon cycle[09:47] Rock deformation[13:54] The overview effect[17:42] “Geology Is Like Augmented Reality for the Planet”[21:28] Colonization of Mars[21:28] Anthropocene[29:06] Planned obsolescence[29:06] Green technology revolution[31:40] Seventh Generation Principle[34:01] Stonehenge[38:29] University of Minnesota[41:02] Svalbard, Norway[41:02] Norwegian Polar Institute[44:15] Yoshihide Ohta[50:06] “Lost Time in Amatrice”[54:19] Kola Superdeep Borehole

Canadians have continued to move further and further away from food production. We can see this in our expanding urban centers and less individuals growing the food we consume. This has led to more discussions about consuming food that is more sustainable. Not only sustainable environmentally, but also economically and socially. The Global Institute for Food Security (GIFS) at the University of Saskatchewan, was tasked in 2022 with understanding agriculture's contributions to improved sustainable outcomes. As a part of this, GIFS has examined the carbon footprint of agricultural production in Saskatchewan and Canada and compared that to other producers across the globe. Dr. Steve Webb, who is the CEO of the Global Institute for Food Security in Saskatoon SK walks through how we're doing growing cereals, pulses and oilseeds based on the latest research. Host: Clinton Monchuk  Clinton Monchuk grew up on a mixed dairy, beef and grain family farm outside of Lanigan, Saskatchewan. He received his Bachelor's of Science in Agriculture majoring in Agricultural Economics from the University of Saskatchewan and Masters of Business Administration in Agriculture from the University of Guelph. Clinton has enjoyed numerous roles across Canada, the United States and Mexico as a researcher, educator, manager, economist and director of trade policy.   In 2016, Clinton accepted the role of Executive Director with Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan to promote farming and ranching to consumers. Clinton understands the value of increasing public trust in agriculture and actively promotes engagement between the agriculture industry and consumers.   Clinton, Laura and their children Jackson and Katelyn, are active partners on their family grain and layer farm in Saskatchewan and cattle ranch in Oklahoma.Guest: Dr. Steven WebbSteven joined the Global Institute for Food Security (GIFS) as Chief Executive Officer in 2019, following a 23-year career with Corteva Agriscience (formerly Dow AgroSciences) in Indiana, United States. His most recent role at Corteva was Research and Development Director of External Technology, where he led many research collaborations with private sector companies, research institutes and universities around the world. Steven earned a PhD in immunochemistry (1998), a Master's degree in biochemistry (1992) and a Bachelor of Science degree in microbiology (1990) from the University of Guelph, Ontario.   About the Global Institute for Food Security  The Global Institute for Food Security (GIFS) works with partners to discover, develop and deliver innovative solutions for the production of globally sustainable food. Founded by Nutrien, the Government of Saskatchewan and the University of Saskatchewan (USask), GIFS is agriculture's innovation catalyst, connecting the agri-food ecosystem, advancing innovation and bridging the gap to commercialization to deliver resilient and sustainable food security for all stakeholders.

Fragmented rocks can absorb carbon dioxide from the air. Great! Could this save us?

Today, Jesse and Chris tackle the topic of the Slow Carbon Cycle.  We've been talking about this for a while now.  This is a very complicate cycle that involves many variables.  In this episode, we work through some scenarios such as the Himalayan uplift and plug them into the Carbon Cycle.  It's a little bit of mental gymnastics.  The ingredients for the Carbon Cycle to operate are freshly exposed rock, water (both in the oceans and the atmosphere), and plate tectonics.  If one of these variables is taken out, the Carbon Cycle ceases.  Join us in this fun and interesting discussion.We now have a live Mobile App for iOS and Android.

The climate had a bad year in 2009. Talks collapsed. Emails were hacked. And several papers found even 50-80% reductions weren't enough: we had to get to net zero. Yet six years later, negotiators from 190 countries acknowledged the need for net zero in the Paris Agreement, even resolving to try to limit warming to 1.5 °C, which means net zero global emissions around 2050. Can it be done? It certainly can. Will it be done? That's up to all of us. A lecture by Myles Allen recorded on 23 May 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/world-zeroGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

We want to make these recorded podcast more directly about RC research, but you'll see that even that plan gets derailed! The Carbon Cycle and Carbon “sinks” are revisited, as RC gets into an overview of his detailed article “Redemption of the Beast” that he compiled in 2017, which includes numerous quotes and articles about the absolutely vital role of Carbon Dioxide in the biosphere. He digresses, however, in an attempt to defend his friend Graham Hancock, and ends up in a tussle with Normal Guy Mike. First episode of “Randall Rants” to be extracted from this classic RC diatribe?

What happens to carbon dioxide after we emit it? Half is absorbed within a year or two by plants and the oceans, the rest, in effect, stays in the atmosphere. So, does that mean we have to halve emissions to stop concentrations rising? Unfortunately, no.Despite the vast reserves of carbon dissolved in the oceans, carbon dioxide released by burning fossil fuels does not get diluted away, but makes an indelible mark on climate for hundreds of thousands of years.A lecture by Myles Allen recorded on 7 March 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/carbon-zeroGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Joy is...Waking Up.Dr Kate Rawles is giving the world a wake up call. She is an outdoor philosopher, with multiple degrees to their name, a writer, cyclist and activist who is passionate about the need to find urgent, intelligent and effective responses to our multiple environmental challenges. With a love for endurance, she uses what she terms ‘Adventure Plus' journeys to communicate on environmental issues and inspire positive change. Her book, The Carbon Cycle, Crossing the Great Divide, based on a bike ride from Texas to Alaska exploring climate change, was shortlisted for the Banff Mountain Festival Adventure Travel Book Award, 2013 and her upcoming book, The Life Cycle, sets our focus on Biodiversity as she cycles over 8,000 miles from Costa Rica to the southern tip of South American on a bamboo bike she built herself. Having left academia, she now lives in Cumbria and works freelance running courses that harness the power of wild places to support personal and professional positive action on environmental sustainability, alongside her activism and writing.I spoke to Kate as she emerged from the tornado that finishing a book project entails, and I was increasingly struck, as we spoke, of the urgency of the stories that she is platforming through her writing and speaking. She is a passionate and knowledgeable communicator and, though peppered with Kate's chuckles and wry humour, many of the themes that we touched on are both shocking and vital. We discussed why statistics are not enough to wake people up; bikes as magicians and how to start conversations; the problems with a conquering mentality and being one animal amongst many; adventure as a means and metaphor for raising awareness and inspiring action; the hidden catastrophe of biodiversity loss and paying witness to both the tragedy and beauty of our relationship with the earth; the big 'Cs' of activism, and not having to be an expert. Kate's book The Life Cycle; 8000 miles in the Andes by bamboo bike, is out with Icon Books on June 1st 2023.Web: www.outdoorphilosophy.co.ukFB: www.facebook.com/biodiversitybikerideTW: @CarbonCycleKateInst: @CarbonCycleKate Hosted on Acast.

Join Hugh Ross and James Patterson, MD, as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. Viruses Fuel the Carbon Cycle (Hugh Ross) A recent study shows that DNA and RNA viruses in the oceans play a crucial role in the ocean carbon flux cycle. Additionally, they play significant roles in the sulfur, nitrogen, and deep ocean cycles. Viruses deposit huge amounts of carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen on an ongoing basis onto the ocean floors. Once there, subducting plates move these elements into Earth's mantle. Without this process, advanced life wouldn't be possible. These huge deposits require that ocean viruses be extremely abundant and diverse and that they be specifically designed in a variety of ways so that advanced life can thrive.   References: Diversity and Ecological Footprint of Global Ocean RNA Viruses   Digital Health (James Patterson) In a world that is now more connected than ever in a digital sense, it seems that humans are becoming more and more disconnected. We've all seen it—a room full of people, all staring at their smartphones. Why is that? Why are more people depressed and suicidal now than ever before? What can we do to promote healthy living in a digitally connected society?    References: Glenn Geher, “The Dark Side of Civilization,” https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/darwins-subterranean-world/202209/the-dark-side-civilization

Today's ID the Future continues geologist Casey Luskin's presentation about how Earth is fine tuned in numerous ways for life, a talk he gave at the 2022 Dallas Conference on Science and Faith. Here in the second half, he highlights the many ways Earth's precise mix of atmospheric gases is strikingly fit for life. On top of that (or rather, beneath that), Earth's active geology and water-rich surface—unique in our solar system—are masterful at helping maintain our life-friendly atmosphere over long ages. Luskin argues that these and other finely tuned characteristics of planet Earth strongly suggest intelligent design. He then offers an additional design argument, this one aesthetic in nature, and then takes questions from the audience. Part 1 of his talk Read More › Source

Randall's extensive Carbon Cycle essay - with full Bibliography: https://randallcarlson.com/the-redemption-of-the-beast-the-carbon-cycle-and-the-demonization-of-co2/   Review of the recent Sacred Geometry workshop and trip to Nashville's full-scale Parthenon leads RC to reveal one of the Master Diagrams that encode a common template for ancient measure. Then he shows how politicizing science and “creative graphsmanship” has manipulated climate data to mislead people – noting that some has been selectively eliminated for a desired result. Also, the Carbon Cycle is a highly effective pump, but with the oceans sequestering huge amounts of CO2, concentrations can get so low that photosynthesis would stop and the biosphere would collapse, and our current levels are actually extremely low compared to much of Earth's history.

Mangrove forests play a vital role in the health of our planet.  These coastal forests are the second most carbon rich ecosystems in the world.  A patch of mangrove forest the size of a soccer field can store more than 1,000 tons of carbon. It does this by capturing carbon from the air and storing […]

In this second episode of our two-part series on forest carbon, we explore ways to enhance carbon storage and sequestration through silviculture.  Whether it is through our choice of silvicultural system, how and when we employ intermediate treatments, or our tree retention practices, we will discuss how we can impact forest carbon and a host of other stand objectives.  Join us for this fascinating conversation with Todd Ontl and Luke Nave from the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science!To learn more, earn CEUs/CFEs, or to interact with the SilviCast team visit: https://www3.uwsp.edu/cnr-ap/WFC/Pages/WFC/Research-and-Development/TheCarbonCycleWontLeaveMeAlone.aspx

The current state of plastic recycling is not very effective.  Plastic recycling is only able to replace 15-20% of the fossil-fuel-derived raw material needed to produce society's demand for plastic. Researchers at Chalmers University in Sweden have now demonstrated how the carbon content in mixed waste could be used to replace all of the fossil […]

Today on Mushroom Hour we are joined by illustrious lichen expert Matthew Nelsen PhD. Matthew is a Research Scientist at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. Matt's research began in botany, ecology and environmental science and has more recently gravitated towards: (i) the evolution of symbiotic associations; and (ii) the evolution of eukaryotic microbes (fungi and algae), and the roles they have played in shaping terrestrial ecosystems and nutrient-cycling over geologic timescales. Both avenues of his research attempt to link diverse fields and organismal groups. He also has conducted work addressing the timing and evolutionary consequences of ant-plant interactions.

Welcome back to the rose bros podcast!This episode we are joined by Jamie Bakos,  President of Titan Clean Energy Projects, for another edition of the Rundle Eco-Capitalism Podcast Series, where the idea is to explore companies giving back to the environment while also making a profit. Titan collects & repurposes waste products such as wood waste and agricultural residue (think flax or hemp) and  converts the material into pure carbon for future use in products like soil additives, animal feed and water and purification.Instead of burning carbon trapped in waste products, Titan is able to prevent additional carbon from being released into the atmosphere. In addition, Titan has recently developed a use for the activated carbon in new plastic products, and has been generating revenue from selling carbon credits as well.We sat down for a smooth cup of rose bros coffee and discussed the carbon cycle and how new products can be made from waste products, the $200 billion carbon credit market, finding product market fit, the $5 billion carbon extraction industry and a lot more.

My AP Biology Thoughts  Unit 1 Episode #36Segment 1: Introduction To The Carbon CycleCarbon cycle Def  The way nature reuses carbon atoms The process in which carbon travels from the atmosphere into organisms and the Earth and back into the atmosphere Background info about cycle Carbon in constant state of movement from place to place and stored in reservoirs - moves between these reservoirs through photosynthesis, burning fossil fuels, respiration, etc. Cycle = cyclic - if you start at one reservoir, you will get back to that same reservoir Earth = closed system - amount of carbon on the planet never changes Nature keeps carbon levels balanced - amount of carbon released from reservoirs equal to amount obtained by same reservoirs Steps Carbon moves from atmosphere to plants - carbon first came from frequent volcanic activity and asteroid impacts - carbon attached to oxygen in CO2 For photosynthesis, CO2 is pulled from the air by plants to help in the process of producing food in the form of glucose which the plants consumes Carbon moves from plants to animals through food chains - animals eat these plants that have this carbon that the plants got from atmosphere Carbon moves plants and animals to soil - bodies, wood, leaves decay - carbon released as production from decomposition reaction go into ground - buried sometimes and turned in fossil fuels in millions of years Fossil fuels burned as human energy resources, carbon is then moved to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide - every year, 5.5 billion tons of carbon is released by burning fossil fuels and around 60% of this amount stays in the atmosphere while remainder becomes dissolved in seawater Carbon can get to atmosphere by respiration - release carbon dioxide as animals exhale - producers use energy from sunlight to make bonds between carbon atoms; animals break these bonds to release the energy they contain - turns carbon compounds into single carbon units - released into atmosphere as carbon dioxide Carbon could be released back into the atmosphere - volcanoes erupt, fires blaze, solid waste Carbon moves from the atmosphere to bodies of water - bodies of water absorb carbon from the atmosphere - dissolved into water Oceans release CO2 - carbon dioxide from atmosphere comes into contact with ocean water - reacts with water molecules to form carbonic acid When carbonic acid > carbon dioxide amount in the atmosphere, some carbonic acid may be released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide Segment 2: Getting Into Specifics: The Carbon CycleGeosphere Geological component of the carbon cycle - operates slowly  Important determinant of amount of carbon in the atmosphere  Of the carbon stored in geosphere, 80% of it is limestone and its derivatives which form from the sedimentation of calcium carbonate stored in the shells of marine organisms; other 20% is stored as kerogen (organic matter in sedimentary rocks) - kerogen formed through the sedimentation and burial of terrestrial organisms under high heat and pressure How its released into atmosphere Carbon dioxide could be released during the metamorphism of carbonate rock - recycled into the Earth's mantle at convergent boundaries. Through volcanoes and hotspots Removed by humans through extraction of kerogens in form of fossil fuels - burned and emit carbon Ocean reservoir - biological pump Ocean divided into surface layer and mixed layer 300 feet below Dissolved inorganic carbon in the surface layer exchanged rapidly with the atmosphere - deep ocean contains more carbon mainly due to its larger volume - exchange of carbon between these two layers of the ocean is extremely slow Carbon enters the ocean through the dissolution of atmospheric carbon dioxide - small part of turned into carbonate; can also enter through rivers as dissolved organic carbon It is converted by organisms into organic carbon through photosynthesis and can then be either exchanged...

Brigid Rooney connects environmentalism to a SWOT analysis, Larry Fink, and all sorts of other business related topics in this episode of WIBcast. As a sustainability analyst at CodeGreen, Brigid's job is to make strategy and implementation plans for commercial real estate clients looking to make their buildings more environmentally friendly. We talk a lot about the upswing in motivation for corporate partners to invest in the environment, and the importance of communication to motivate further action. Something really interesting to me on that topic is how effective the rankings system acts as an incentive. On top of her full time job at CodeGreen, Brigid is currently enrolled in Columbia University's Sustainability Masters program. In this program, she breaks down the intense business focused training she is getting to fuel her future impact. Brigid talks about one of her previous classes where she worked with a hyper local produce delivery company and helped them reduce their environmental impact directly. In her eventual capstone project, she will employ her skills and act as a pro bono consultant for a client who other wise would not be able to afford services like those at CodeGreen. The social justice and humanitarian view of environmentalism is just as important to Brigid as her role at work. Brigid put beautifully into words the purpose of what she does. As a member of the first graduating class in Boston College's environmental studies program, she explains her love for Earth science itself and how that plays into her personal motivation for her career. We also talk about how capitalism paired with strong governmental innovation can help to create positive change. In a truly inspiring episode, Brigid opened my eyes to how people who don't understand the carbon cycle can leverage business school skills to address the climate crisis.
