Hörspiel nach dem gleichnamigen Roman von Daniel Kehlmann, Teil 2 Im Jahre 1799 begibt sich Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) zusammen mit seinem Gefährten Aimé Bonpland auf eine fünfjährige Forschungsreise nach Mittel- und Südamerika. Mit Hilfe von Sextant, Quadrant, Teleskop, Thermo-, Baro-, Aero-, Hygro- und Cyanometer will er die unbekannte Welt vermessen. Er sammelt Pflanzen, Tiere, exotische Leichen, zählt die Läuse auf den Köpfen Einheimischer, erforscht Vulkane, entdeckt die Verbindung zwischen Orinoko und Amazonas, besteigt den Chimborazo und wird in Washington von Thomas Jefferson, Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika, empfangen. Der Mathematiker, Astronom, Geodät und Physiker Carl Friedrich Gauß (1777 - 1855) bleibt zu Hause. In seinem Zimmer beobachtet er Planeten, denkt und rechnet und weist ganz nebenbei nach, dass Kant bei seinen Ausführungen zu Raum und Zeit geschludert hat. Im September 1828 ist Gauß gezwungen, zum ersten al seit Jahren seine Heimatstadt Göttingen zu verlassen, um am Deutschen Naturforscherkongress in Berlin teilzunehmen. Er soll dort Alexander von Humboldt treffen. So kreuzen sich die Lebenswege zweier Genies, die beide die Welt vermessen haben - jeder auf seine Weise: der eine empirisch, der andere kraft seiner Ratio.

Millán Ludeña nunca fue un atleta de alto rendimiento ni su trayectoria deportiva empezó de la forma tradicional, pero entendió que la verdadera carrera se gana en la mente. Desde Ecuador, decidió desafiar lo que parecía "casi" imposible: conectar el punto más profundo y el más cercano al sol en un reto. Así nació 'From Core to Sun', un documental y desafío sin precedentes que lo llevó desde la mina más profunda del mundo, en Sudáfrica, hasta la cima del Chimborazo, el punto más cercano al sol desde la Tierra. Con temperaturas extremas, falta de oxígeno y un recorrido extenuante, su hazaña le otorgó un Guinness World Record y lo convirtió en una inspiración mundial. Ha participado en carreras en el desierto del Sahara, la Antártida o la montaña más salvaje de la Patagonia, pero Ludeña no corre solo por alcanzar la meta, sino por demostrar que los límites solo existen en la mente. Hoy comparte su historia como conferenciante, demostrando que los sueños más grandes no son los más fáciles, sino aquellos que nos transforman. "Las personas crecemos solo cuando enfrentamos nuestros miedos. Crecemos en el desafío, en la penumbra, en la incertidumbre, cuando te estás preguntando cómo lo resuelvo. Allí estás en tu máximo esplendor cognitivo, allí es cuando realmente estás pensando, porque el cerebro solo resuelve problemas, no resuelve pretextos", concluye el deportista.
Subieron el Chimborazo, el volcán en Ecuador más alto en esa época y las observaciones que hizo Alexander von Humboldt en ese ascenso de la gradación de la temperatura y la estratificación de la vegetación en la ladera, sentaría las bases de la biología moderna. Un espacio de Bárbara Espejo.
Nous sommes en 1847. Dans le tome 1 de « Cosmos », son essai d'une description physique du monde, Alexander von Humboldt écrit : « En maintenant l'unité de l'espèce humaine, nous rejetons, par une conséquence nécessaire, la distinction désolante de races supérieures et de races inférieures. Sans doute il est des familles de peuples plus susceptibles de culture, plus civilisées, plus éclairées ; mais il n'en est pas de plus nobles que les autres. Toutes sont également faites pour la liberté, pour cette liberté qui, dans un état de société peu avancé, n'appartient qu'à l'individu, mais qui, chez les nations appelées à la jouissance de véritables institutions politiques, est le droit de la communauté tout entière. » Alexander von Humboldt naturaliste, géographe et explorateur allemand, par la qualité des relevés effectués lors de ses expéditions, est l'un de ceux qui ont fondé les bases de l'exploration scientifique. Il est l'un des précurseur de l'écologie. Invité : Marcel-Etienne Dupret, guide-conférencier.

A l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de Darwin, le 12 février, BSG rediffuse une série consacrée au père de la théorie de l'Évolution.Dans cet épisode, l'explorateur Alexander Von Humboldt, le botaniste et entomologiste John Henslow et le géologue Charles Lyell, dont les explorations, les études et les théories ont beaucoup influencé le jeune Darwin.Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) est le «second découvreur de l'Amérique». Cet allemand, frère intrépide du fondateur de l'université de Berlin, était un mix entre De Vinci et Mike Horn pour faire simple;) Un esprit universel, qui remonté l'Orénoque en pirogue, escaladé le volcan Chimborazo (un volcan très spécial, cf épisodes volcans avec JM Bardintzeff), bravant bien des tempêtes au long cours...John Stevens Henslow obtient en 1822 la chaire de minéralogie de l'université de Cambridge. Ce religieux progressiste se passionne pour la botanique et l'entomologie. Henslow est un professeur très recherché. Son élève Charles Darwin lui doit son intérêt pour l'histoire naturelle. C'est grâce à Henslow que Darwin rencontre le capitaine Robert FitzRoy du HMS Beagle.Le géologue Charles Lyell expose vers 1830 une théorie très controversée: la terre aurait été façonnée lentement, pendant des millions d'années, par des forces toujours existantes (uniformitarisme). Cette vision s'oppose au catastrophisme soutenu par Cuvier. Selon le Français, la Terre avait été modelée par une série de catastrophes, tel le déluge, dans un laps de temps court. Cuvier was wrong... Lyell, ami proche de Charles Darwin, est l'un des premiers scientifiques reconnus à apporter son appui à L'Origine des espèces, à une époque où Darwin essuyait une grosse shitstorm...Jean-Claude Simard est professeur de philosophie et chercheur à l'Université du Québec à Montréal, et un grand connaisseur de la vie de Charles Darwin.Sur la photo: Alexander Von Humboldt_______
Tilbage i 1802 stod den tyske videnskabsmand Alexander von Humboldt nær toppen af vulkanen Chimborazo i Ecuador og blev ramt af en erkendelse, som sidenhen har formet vores forståelse af, hvordan verden sammen: alt er forbundet. På vejen op havde han krydset adskillige klimazoner og kæmpet sig gennem jungle, tågeskov og højslette til den gletsjerdækkede vulkantop. Knap 200 år senere gentog makroøkolog Carsten Rahbek turen gennem det forunderlige landskab i de sydamerikanske Andesbjerge. Også for ham satte den friske bjergluft og det artsrige økosystem gang i tankerne. For Rahbek blev det tydeligt, at biologerne hidtil havde undervurderet livet i bjergene, og hans opdagelser skulle sidenhen omskrive en af biologiens fundamentale love. Han har sidenhen forsøgt at komme tættere på at besvare på biologiens fundamentale spørgsmål: Hvordan fordeles livet på jorden? Men der er stadig uforklarlige observationer fra verdens bjergkæder, som ikke passer ind i forskernes modeller. Så måske biologiens love skal omskrives endnu en gang? Sammen med naturformidler Alexander Holm kaster Carsten Rahbek et nysgerrigt blik på klodens højest beliggende økosystemer. For hvilke nye svar skal findes i bjergene? Skal biologiens gåder ved hjælp af gummistøvler eller computerkraft? Og kan naturkrisen løses ved at tænke som et bjerg?

MONTAÑAS DE AMÉRICA, 25 AÑOS DE ALPINISMO, POR MAYAYO: Del Aconcagua 1999 al Pico Orizaba 2024 en Radio Trail.Buenos días os habla una vez más Mayayo para nuestro podcast RADIO TRAIL en la web CARRERASDEMONTANA, con un programa especial celebrando 25 años de una pasión personal por las montañas de América.Una pasión que me ha llevado del Pico Bolívar de Venezuela en Octubre 1999 al Pico Orizaba en este Octubre 2024 pasando por el Aconcagua como techo de la Argentina o Mount Elbert como cima de las Montañas Rocosas en Colorado.El Lunes 30SSEP viajamos en avión con la ilusión de ascender los 5.636m del techo de México. Repasando una breve lista de las cimas abordadas, no puedo menos que recordar que cuando encaras montañas de gran altitud, por encima de los cuatromil metros, no siempre tienes éxito. En general sí he gozado muchas más caras que cruces pero como sabe todo montañero a veces no se logra alcanzar la cima y es mejor dar la vuelta para volver otro día, otro año incluso. Todo empezó en Octubre de 1999 en Venezuela donde coronamos primero el sencillo Pico Humboldt ( 4942m) y después el algo más técnico y complejo Pico Bolívar (4978m) como techo de Venezuela. Fue durante la primera expedición Cacique Orinoco, lanzada por motivos de trabajo que podéis oír detallados en la radio.Poco después en diciembre muy animado me iba en solitario a por el Aconcagua, en la frontera de la Argentina y Chile, cuya cima de 6.959m coroné el día de Navidad de 1999 como techo de las Américas tras una feroz odisea causada por el famoso Viento Blanco. El siguiente asalto iba a ser en el año 2000 al Pico Alpamayo (5.947m) por la mítica vía Ferrari pero aunque nuestro equipo sí logró viajar y coronar, yo hube de quedarme a última hora con la familia por una inesperada cirugía de cáncer sobre mi hermana. Salió bien, eso era lo más importante.Llegó después en Julio del 2001 una triple ascensión en Ecuador. De nuevo en solitario, abordé en el propio Quito, la cima del volcán Guagua Pichincha (4.748m) y después ya en el vecino Parque Nacional del Cotopaxi, el Rumiñahui (4.712m). Ambas fueron cimas de aclimatación para el objetivo principal de la expedición, el Cotopaxi (5897m). Una expedición que bauticé como "Montañas del Sol" y que me dejó muy lindos y variados recuerdos.Pasaron cinco años de mucho trabajo y pocos viajes, hasta que pude afrontar la siguiente ilusión. Esta vez era Junio 2006 y el objetivo era el Nevado Sajama (6452m) situado casi en la frontera andina entre Bolivia y Chile. Un fantástico volcán extinguido, emplazado en un lugar desolado al que abordé en solo también. Esta vez salió cruz y unas prolongadas tormentas me mandaron a casa cuando ya estaba durmiendo en el campo alto a 5.680m a un solo día final, de asalto a cumbre.La siguiente expedición fue al Chimborazo (6.263m) como techo de Ecuador. Viajé junto a Jacobo desde Cercedilla y aunque logramos varios objetivos parciales del viaje, como nueva cima en Rimuñahui para aclimatar o el descenso del barranco San Jorge en Baños de Ambato….la cima buscada no pudo ser.En 2007 entramos en una nueva época tras fundar CARRERASDEMONTANA. Como editor de la web, a partir del lanzamiento apenas he tenido tiempo para largas expediciones a montañas sin más. En su lugar, trazo escapadas a cimas que me interesan cuando alguna carrera me lleva cerca.Si en 2010 el objetivo era ser el primer español en completarla Leadville 100 Miles, me resultó irresistible no escaparme un día antes y otro después de la carrera para subir algunas de sus famosas Nolan´s 14. Las catorce montañas de más de 4.200m que rodean este pueblo minero de Colorado. De esta forma, junto con Ana Samuelsson ascendimos al techo de las Rocosas, el sencillo Mount Elbert (4401m) antes de la carrera y después de cruzar meta en Leadville 100 fuimos a por el segundo de los picos del macizo, La Plata Peak (4377m)Mis siguientes visitas a las montañas de América fueron a partir del 2017 a Patagonia Argentina y Patagonia Chilena. Por desgracia, ni en las tres ediciones que visité la k42Argentina (2017-18-19) ni en la chilena Ultrafiord 2017 sumé otra cima que los muy modestos 1.800m del CerroBayo que domina Villa La Angostura entre las nieves. En 2018 llegó mi siguiente pico en Las Rocosas, y qué pico. Bautizado como “El Capitán” por los descubridores españoles dada su prominencia en la región, fue durante el seguimiento de la Pike´s Peak Marathon 2018 ganada por Dakota Jones y Megan Kimmel cuando pude escarparme un día para remontar la centenaria ruta de Barr Trail y ascender por mi cuenta la cima de Pike´s Peak (4302m) La próxima aventura arranca el Lunes 30SEP rumbo al Pico Orizaba (5636m) como techo de Méjico Apenas surgió la oportunidad de traeros en vivo en la carrera del Reto Vulcano que se disputará el 12OCT con nuestro bicampeón del mundial Masters Eduard Hernández entre los favoritos de una prueba que sube tan solo hasta 4600m. En mi caso iré unos días antes para intentar ascender esos 1000m extra hasta la cima del volcán que da nombre a la pruebaTras listar lo más destacado en estos 25 años, si os parece cogemos el avión y vamos a empezar por el principio: Aquella primera expedición Cacique Orinoco de 1999 que se debió al trabajo y que dio lugar al nacimiento de mi ya larga pasión por las Montañas de América. #carrerasdemontaña#radiotrailConviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-trail-carreras-de-montana-mayayo--4373839/support.

Wykład Marcina Romeyko-Hurko towarzyszący wystawie "Biedermeier". Muzeum Narodowe w Warszawie. 26 października 2017 https://wszechnica.org.pl/wyklad/krajowidoki-ze-sztafazem-o-pejzazowej-ikonosferze-epoki-biedermeieru/ Biedermeier, kojarzony ze statecznością, to czas przemian w postrzeganiu przyrody, rozwoju turystyki oraz kształtowania się lokalnej i narodowej tożsamości. Opowiedział o tym – ilustrując swoje wystąpienie bogatą ikonografią z epoki – Marcin Romeyko-Hurko podczas wykładu w Muzeum Narodowym w Warszawie. Historyk sztuki mówił w trakcie swojego wystąpienia o rewolucji w naukach o przyrodzie, jaka dokonała się sprawą Alexandra von Humboldta (1769-1859). Niemiecki przyrodnik jako pierwszy spojrzał na przyrodę jako jednolity system zależności, bez dzielenia jej na ożywioną i nieożywioną. Jak mówił Romeyko-Hurko, można go nazwać również w tym kontekście "prekursorem infografiki". Za pomocą rysunków i tabel zilustrował on w jednej ze swoich prac powiązania między klimatem, roślinnością i ukształtowaniem terenu na górze Chimborazo (6263 m n.p.m.) w Andach w Ameryce Południowej, uważanej wówczas za najwyższy szczyt świata. W ślady Humboldta szli inni, jak np. Stanisław Staszic (1755-1826), który badał przyrodę Tatr. Biedermeier to również czas zainteresowania pieszymi wędrówkami, w trakcie których notowano widoki, detale architektury czy typy ludowe. Prelegent przypomniał postać Karla Beadekera (1801-1859), pioniera w zakresie wydawania przewodników turystycznych. Rozwój technik reprodukcji graficznych, jak litografia, umożliwiał rozpowszechniania takich ilustrowanych publikacji w dużych nakładach. Z turystyką wiązał się również rozwój uzdrowisk. Początkowo były one uczęszczane jedynie przez arystokrację, ale z czasem również przez mieszczan, co wpływało na "demokratyzację obyczajów". Biedermeier to też okres zainteresowania ochroną zabytków i kształtowaniem wokół nich narodowych i lokalnych tożsamości. Ich wizerunki - rozpowszechniane w dużych nakładach - kształtowały "pamięć historyczną" europejskich społeczeństw.

Meu convidado tem uma história bastante peculiar. Apesar de ter nascido e vivido no Brasil até os 33 anos, faz três décadas e meia que não possui residência fixa. Vive literalmente rodando o mundo atrás de experiências e sonhos, que o proporcionaram uma vida pouco ortodoxa para os padrões que conhecemos. Nascido no interior do Rio Grande do Sul, com 1 ano de idade mudou-se para Porto Alegre e com 11 veio morar em São Paulo. Durante alguns anos praticou natação e atletismo. Depois de formar-se em pediatria, decidiu mochilar por dois anos pela Europa e Ásia, atrás das sensações que havia vivido alguns anos antes, durante uma viagem que fez à Bolívia e ao Peru, quando pisou em uma montanha nevada pela primeira vez. De volta ao Brasil, começou a trabalhar e ao longo de cinco anos, percebeu que a vida que levava não fazia sentido. Em 1989, então com 33 anos, largou a profissão, namorada, familiares, amigos e partiu, sem passagem de volta, rumo ao desconhecido. Seu primeiro destino, Katmandu. Nunca antes ou depois sentiu-se tão livre, tão aberto para o que a vida lhe apresentaria. Foi o ano mais importante da sua vida e viajar passou a fazer parte da sua rotina. Em 1992 abriu sua primeira empresa de turismo, levando brasileiros para viajar pelos lugares que amava. Desde então vem adquirindo uma vivência única e guiando centenas de pessoas por inúmeros países. Em sua convivência com as culturas asiáticas acabou entrando em contato com yoga, meditação e o budismo, que influenciaram profundamente sua maneira de ver o mundo. Também teve a oportunidade de praticar vários esportes de aventura como o caiaque, o rafting, a vela, o ciclo turismo e a escalada em rocha e em gelo. Estar rodeado por montanhas nevadas, porém, é o que faz com que se sinta mais realizado. Escalou dezenas de montanhas do mundo, entre elas o Sajama, na Bolívia, o Chimborazo no Equador, o Damavand, no Irã. Em 2009 escalou o Cho Oyu, a sexta montanha mais alta do planeta, para em maio de 2010, colocar os pés no cume do Everest, tornando-se o oitavo brasileiro a chegar ao topo do mundo. Em dezembro de 2011 concluiu a escalada da montanha mais alta de cada continente, o chamado Sete Cumes, tornando-se o segundo brasileiro a conquistar este feito. Durante seis anos dividiu seu tempo entre as montanhas realizando suas próprias expedições ou guiando seus clientes e seu veleiro “Good Karma”, fazendo a circunavegação do planeta. Ele foi de São Paulo ao topo do Aconcágua pedalando, remando, correndo e escalando. De bicicleta, viajou duas vezes mais de 3.000km pelo Himalaia Indiano e veio da Austrália até o Brasil. Já correu algumas maratonas e recentemente aprendeu a velejar de Kitesurfe. Ano passado tornou-se o primeiro latino americano a completar o mais exigente trekking de longa duração do planeta, o Great Himalayan Trail, onde atravessou em 125 dias o Nepal de leste a oeste por trilhas próximas à fronteira com o Tibete. Para ele, só existe uma maneira de fazer algo bem feito. É fazer com amor, com todo o coração. Conosco aqui, o montanhista, hiker, médico, velejador, empreendedor, guia de montanha que vive viajando e já esteve 77 vezes no Campo Base do Everest. Um especialista em realizar sonhos e ajustar o seu rumo em busca do verdadeiro sentido da vida, doutor formado pela Escola Paulista de Medicina com PH.d e Pós doc em felicidade, o farroupilhense Manoel Augusto Monteiro Morgado.

NotiMundo Estelar - Luis Escobar, Efectos De Las Lluvias En Chimborazo by FM Mundo 98.1
1-¿Qué es bueno para protegerme del Sol en el verano? 2-¿Qué hay más allá del universo? ¿Es un espacio vacío? ¿Cuánto mide el universo? 3-¿Cuáles alimentos son los más importantes para tener una dieta equilibrada si una persona no puede comer cítricos, ni ácidos, ni productos lácteos? 4-¿Si uno recibe un golpe en el cráneo pierde la memoria? 5-Cuando escuchaba el programa en mi infancia, junto a mi padre, recuerdo que se llamaba Escuela Para Todos. ¿Por qué le cambiaron el nombre? 6-Unas personas dicen que el monte más alto del mundo es el monte Everest, pero otras dicen que es el Chimborazo que está en Ecuador. ¿Serían tan amables y darme la respuesta? Programa de radio "Oigamos la Respuesta" del Instituto Centroamericano de Extensión de la Cultura (ICECU). El programa se hace con las preguntas que envían nuestros oyente y las respuestas que se elaboran en el ICECU con un lenguaje claro y sencillo desde el año 1964.
"Año 5560 del calendario andino (2063). Dos amigas se escapan juntas de sus hogares para adentrarse en el volcán Chimborazo, donde anualmente se celebra El Ruido, un festival popular que, como un gran tributo a la música y a la tierra, congrega a miles de personas. Atrás quedan la brutalidad de las ciudades, las familias y las bandas armadas para la autodefensa, y se abre un paisaje alucinado que tiembla al ritmo de la música y las erupciones volcánicas bajo un cielo surcado por meteoritos. La nueva novela de Mónica Ojeda es un gran viaje místico al corazón primitivo de la música, de la danza y de la tierra; un viaje lisérgico y emocional que a la vez es la búsqueda de un padre y de un sentido de pertenencia en un mundo asolado por la violencia y la crisis climática." Conversamos en el #TraficantesDeCultura con la escritora ecuatoriana Mónica Ojeda, autora de #ChamanesEléctricosEnLaFiestaDelSol, libro editado por RANDOM HOUSE. Conduce: Humberto Fuentes

Recuerdos del techo de los Andes, por Mayayo. Nuestra sección MONTAÑISMO recupera el diario de una expedición vivida 25 años atrás, ascendiendo en solitario al coloso argentino. El objetivo era hacer cima en solo sin más: Sin apoyo externo alguno, pero sin buscar tampoco complicaciones adicionales Al final, dos semanas permitieron ir de Madrid a pisar el techo de las Américas. Un gigante técnicamente amable Aconcagua es, con sus 6,959m de altitud, la montaña más alta de las Américas. Es por tanto una montaña muy frecuentada por alpinistas de todo el mundo, que deben cumplir con la ascensión durante un período limitado del año. Desde hace más de 25 años, los accesos de entrada y salida están controlados por los guardaparques y suponen el abono de una tasa especial. La entrada al Parque en la temporada permitida, registra una afluencia de 6.000 a 7.000 visitantes por temporada, que se extiende entre diciembre y marzo en años normales.En lo técnico, se trata de una las grandes ascensiones de altura más amables, pues no hay necesidad de encordarse en ningún paso y el uso de crampón y piolet es a menudo necesario tan solo en ataque a cima. Aunque la altitud afecta algo más que en otras latitudes, el gran peligro es el «Viento Blanco» que supone ventiscas de nieve a más de 100 Km/h que se desatan sobre el Rey de los Andes con una feroz fuerza destructora.ASCENSIÓN ACONCAGUA: MÁS DE 150 VICTIMASLa peor temporada de la historia en el techo de las Américas fue en 1998, con diez escaladores fallecidos. En total, en el Aconcagua habían fallecido hasta el pasado 2022 un total de 153 alpinistas, desde la primera ascensión realizada en 1897 por Matthias Zurbriggen (40) el 14ENE a quien siguieron otros dos miembros de la expedición unos días después.El 70 % de las muertes en el Aconcagua se produjeron en esta vía normal. Las principales causas de las muertes fueron los edemas cerebrales y pulmonares por la intolerancia a la altura.ASCENSIÓN ACONGACUA EN SOLO, POR MAYAYOEl objetivo de Mayayo al partir era hacer cima en solo sin más: Sin apoyo externo alguno, pero sin buscar tampoco complicaciones adicionales Al final, dos semanas permitieron ir de Madrid a pisar el techo de las Américas.

Owning raw land, timberland, and farmland is often the domain of the wealthy. This is partly because it is difficult to obtain loans for this property. Today, we discuss an income-producing timberland that also tends to increase in value. For under $7,000 you can own quarter-acre parcels of producing teak trees in Panama and Nicaragua. You can invest yourself. All at once, this provides diversification with a hard asset in a foreign nation and a different product type. Over a twenty-five year period, each $7K quarter-acre teak parcel is projected to return $94K. You get title to the property. Learn more at: www.GREmarketplace.com/Teak With ownership of two quarter-acre parcels, you can qualify for a second residency in Panama for under $22K with legal fees, etc. A SFR does not grow into a duplex. But teak trees grow in volume while its unit price typically appreciates. Teak price growth is historically 5.5% annually. I've met the company CEO and Chairman in-person. This provider has offered this opportunity for 24+ years. They've recently added a sawmill, increasing profits. What are the risks of teak tree investing? Disease, pests, fire, geopolitics and more. They are proven mitigation plans. In-person teak tours for prospective investors are offered. Trees grow through recessions, COVID, market cycles, and Fed rate decisions.

Corey Coates (00:01:28) - You're listening to the show that has created more financial freedom than nearly any show in the world. This is get rich education. Keith Weinhold (00:01:44) - What category? From Sorrento, Italy to Sacramento, California, and across 188 nations worldwide. I'm Keith Reinhold, and you're listening to get Rich education the Voice of Real Estate since 2014. As we're two months into the year now and the US economy has continued to stay strong. Let me ask, how's your portfolio doing and how resilient is your real estate? How diverse is it? How would you grade yourself on those criteria? Donald Trump (00:02:17) - I would give myself, I would look, I hate to do it, but I will do it. I would give myself an A-plus. Is that enough? Can I go higher than that? Keith Weinhold (00:02:29) - Well, well, whether your, I guess, straight A's or not. Consider this land report.com. They recently published a report about America's top 100 Las donors. Now, Lynn could be vacant and nonresidential, yet have active ranching or agriculture or forestry taking place. Keith Weinhold (00:02:52) - That way the land produces something while it might increase in value at the same time. But the reason that often land is the domain of the wealthy is that it's harder to get loans for land, and therefore one must often pay all cash. Well, by the time they were done. Today, you'll learn about producing land that's actually available at such a low price point that alone typically is not required for you to buy it. In 2024, America's largest land owner is Red Emerson, and that's what the report found. Read and his family owned 2.4 million acres in California, Oregon and Washington through their Timber products company and the number since they became America's largest landowners in 2021, when they acquired 175,000 acres in Oregon from another timber company. Well, with that acquisition, the Emerson surpassed Liberty Media chairman John Malone's 2.2 million acres. And then in third place is CNN founder Ted Turner. Yeah, he's America's third largest landowner, with 2 million acres in the southeast on the Great Plains and across the West. And it was a few years ago now. Keith Weinhold (00:04:05) - It was 2020 when news broke that Microsoft co-founder Bill gates was America's largest farm land owner, with more than 260,000 acres. So the wealthy are attracted to real assets that can produce yield in something like land, which they aren't making more of. That's the backdrop for today. Surely we'll talk about income producing land, although most years it won't pay out and it's available to any investor, big or small. But before we do, let me share that. About ten days ago, I climbed up the highest point on Earth here while we're talking about non-residential real estate. Well, where was it? Where was I? Yes, I was on Earth's highest piece of real estate. Kind of a trivia question here, and I used to think that that must mean Mount Everest, but it's not. So there's a clue for you there. Where is Earth's highest point is you ponder that. I'll give you the answer later. Let's talk about investing like a billionaire with the opportunity to own producing land did it to you? We've discussed this topic before, but it's been quite some time and there have been some important updates, including a sawmill for the production timber. Keith Weinhold (00:05:32) - After success in the computer industry, today's guest formed ECI development in 1996. I suppose going on nearly 30 years now. He served on advisory boards for the Na as a resort community developer. They have projects in Belize, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras and Panama, and neighborhoods include homes, condominiums, golf courses and over five miles of beachfront. So they got some really beautiful properties. He and I first met in person in 2016. He and his family lived in Central America from 2002 to 2016. It's always fantastic to have back on grea, and I guess I must button up here because it is the chairman and CEO, Michael Cobb. It's good to be with you. Thanks for having me. Michael Cobb (00:06:21) - Back on the show. It's fun to have these conversations. I didn't realize we met in 2016. That's a little while ago. Keith Weinhold (00:06:27) - Yeah, it has been eight years. Yes, we met in the region then down there and Mike's about the most relatable and down to earth guy that you can find and literally down to earth is. Keith Weinhold (00:06:41) - Besides the resort development, you've made it easy and inexpensive for investors worldwide to buy producing teak tree parcels. But before we discuss that, you've got a project that's drawn a lot of interest on Ambergris Key, Belize, which many of our listeners already know, that's Belize's largest island and its top tourist destination. I have visited and owned property there, and it's coming online next year. It's pretty exciting. Tell us about it. Michael Cobb (00:07:08) - It is exciting. It's been in the works for goodness, eight years. I think we signed our contract with Marriott maybe 7 or 8 years ago. We started construction just about a year ago last January. So almost exactly a year. Yeah, it's a marriott resort, 202 room oceanfront resort. It's fantastic. It will be done in August of 2025. Soft opening heart opening October 25th. So yeah, about 1618 months from now have this project finally finished. You know, the big challenging thing in this part of the world is financing. But it's really hard to get financing or affordable financing. Michael Cobb (00:07:42) - Let me say it that way. Yeah. And so we took our time and we would not start a project until it was fully funded. I think a lot of challenges are people start these projects are kind of betting on the. Com. Right. Oh well we'll figure it out later. And we don't operate that way. We've been around for yeah 28 years. And so we're very very conservative. And until we had all the money to build the hotel, the resort, we did not start. And so we kicked it off last January. It was just down there last week. Steel is arriving. The superstructure is already going up. Yeah, man. It's just so nice to see it really coming to fruition. But you know, it's prudence and patience to take our time, make sure we have all the funding and then launch so that what we start finishes. And that's really been our mantra for almost three decades now. Keith Weinhold (00:08:27) - Make it up, make it real, make it happen. In the largest town there on Ambergris Key, Belize, just a few decades ago, it was still this sleepy fishing village. Keith Weinhold (00:08:37) - And with the setting that that island has and all the great snorkeling and everything else, it's really become popular and is boutique hotels grew into larger hotels. Yeah, it was probably, what, ten years ago perhaps, that you saw some of these big brands start to take more of an interest, like Hilton and Marriott, in branding the buildings what is. Michael Cobb (00:09:00) - And, you know, I give a presentation called Why Belize, Why Right Now? And you nailed it there when you talked about the timelines. Right. And how a country or a region, it's not even a country in this case. Ambergris key. It's very specific. Right. How ambergris Key Belize has moved through this timeline, this path of progress. And at some point it goes from being a niche market or a no name market to a niche market, to a boutique market. And then all of a sudden, you're right, at some point the brand start to pay attention and then you move into popular acceptance and really mainstream tourism. And so, right. Michael Cobb (00:09:31) - The cruise ships started going to Belize about 15 years ago, which put Belize as a country into the mind of a more mainstream traveler. And then you're right, about eight, ten years ago, the brand started to pay attention. And we do. We have a Hilton, we have a curio by Hilton, we have an autograph by Marriott, our company, ECI. We picked up the best Western franchise, and so we operate a Best Western on the island for that middle class market. And then Marriott, obviously, for the very high end traveler who wants an oceanfront 4 or 5 star kind of property. So yeah, but the brands are paying attention. And by the way, we're just seeing the beginning of that happening. This popularity curve Belize has entered what I would call the fast growth period. And over the next five, maybe eight years, we're going to see incredible growth in the tourism industry. Airlift is up. JetBlue just started flying down. So we're starting to WestJet. So we've got Canadian Air. Michael Cobb (00:10:22) - We've got a discount carrier southwest. So when those things start to happen what you see is a market dynamism that's you know really it's exciting and it's going to change. Very, very rapidly. The pace of change is going to grow rapidly as well. So great time to look at Belize. If folks are interested in sort of that positioning in the path of progress in the marketplace. Keith Weinhold (00:10:43) - Each time I visit Ambergris Key, Belize, the level of development increase is palpable. And, you know, this is an opportunity for a US or Canadian buyer or a buyer from outside that nation to come in. And it's just a very easy step with the English language and the common law in Belize, where you can invest yourself in this Marriott project that Mike discussed. Now, Mike, a while ago, to change topics, you recognize that the world has been really deforested and losing its valuable teak hardwood forests so continuously since 1999, you've offered a program so that individual investors at a really affordable price. We'll get to that price later. Keith Weinhold (00:11:30) - They can own quarter acre parcels with the property deeded in their name, and reap the benefits and returns from the growth of the teakwood on top of the land. And now this is pretty novel, because for hundreds of years, only the hedge funds and super wealthy had access to an investment like this. So get us up to date with what you're doing on the teak hardwoods, because I know that so many of our listeners and viewers have already gotten involved. Michael Cobb (00:11:56) - They haven't really. Thank you for being one of the people who put the word out there. Right? Because most people don't even know you can own teak or let's just back it up and you say, own timber, right? You start there. You're right. Only the super rich land barons, hedge funds. Those are the people that have always owned timber for centuries. Right. And so I think in most people's minds it's like, oh, I can't even get there. How would I even do that? Right. Well, then you take it overseas and you take it into something very, very specific, like teak timber. Michael Cobb (00:12:25) - That's just not on anyone's radar. So. So you have done a great job. Thank you for getting the word out to just let folks know that this is something that they can do. So quarter acre teak parcels. We are now on our third plantation in Panama. We have one in Nicaragua as well. And so we're in our third plantation in Panama. Just because of the incredible number of folks, well over a thousand folks now who have decided they want to invest in own teak. You said something really interesting, Keith. You said you get to own the land, you get title to land and you get the harvest of the trees. That's absolutely correct. But it gets better because when the trees are harvested, they get replanted. And then the next generation of people your children, your grandchildren, whoever that might be, get the next harvest. But because you still own the land and the trees are replanted, a third harvest, you know, and a fourth harvest. So what you've really created with teak ownership is generational wealth stewardship. Michael Cobb (00:13:24) - And that is something that's just so far beyond the comprehension of so many people that it can be so easy and so affordable to do. Keith Weinhold (00:13:32) - I'm an investor myself in producing land like this in Latin America, so I know what some of my reasons are for being interested in this. And yes, it's more than the fact that I'm just a geography guy. It's the fact that I know I'm diversifying in multiple ways at the same time, a different product type in residential real estate. And I'm getting international diversification in a different nation, for starters. So are those some of the reasons that you see for why so many people are interested in teak investing like this? What are their reasons? Michael Cobb (00:14:05) - Yeah, I think you've nailed a big part of it, which is the hard asset. A lot of folks, your listeners, readers in the news that are right, I mean, hard assets are important. I hope more people recognize that. Right. And more and more people are, thank goodness. So hard. Asset real estate being this particular hard asset. Michael Cobb (00:14:22) - Right. And then the international diversification, one of the challenges we have is us, especially in Canadians to some degree, is that we kind of locked into the US system like we can own, say, Toyota stock, right? Japanese company, we can own Nestlé, a Swiss company, but generally we're doing it on the New York Stock Exchange. And so even if we own an international stock, it's still the US basket are still the Canadian basket that we hold it in. Right. And so when you physically own a titled property outside your home country, you have now truly diversified internationally. And there's a lot of prudence in that. And even just tiny little percentages of your portfolio, 5% of your portfolio, 10% of your portfolio outside your home country and hard assets is prudent because you want some other baskets for those nest eggs. Antiqued because it's such a low price point of entry with a huge yield, by the way, that it has become very, very popular for folks who want that international diversification in a hard asset. Michael Cobb (00:15:23) - But to have the true international diversification because it's a physical asset outside your home country. And then I. Just say this and we can pick up on the theme or not. The other reason that people are looking at teak in Panama and Nicaragua, by the way, both countries, is because of the availability or the qualification for a visa for a second residency. And a lot of times people look at that as a plan B, if we kind of think maybe the US is going off the rails or Canada or wherever your home country is at, or it could go off the rails. Doesn't have to be now. It could be going off the rails in the future. You sort of that Boy Scout mentality of, you know what, I want a plan B, and if we have a second residency outside our home country, we now have an option. If we don't like the way things are going or where they get to, we can actually pick up and we can move and we have the right legal right, because we have a residency to live in another country. Michael Cobb (00:16:17) - That's another reason that a lot of people have picked up the teak because it qualifies you for that residency. But I think the bigger reason is the international hard asset diversification. I think that's the leading reason people do it. Keith Weinhold (00:16:31) - I want to ask you more about the residency shortly, but tell us more about the investment. We're thinking about maybe capital growth as the trees grow. And then what about the income? Michael Cobb (00:16:42) - Sure. And so I think let me back it up. A lot of people think in cash flow cycles, right? If we have a job, we get paid every two weeks. You know, you have a lot of folks that have invested in properties. We get a monthly rent check, right? Or if we have stocks, maybe we get a quarterly or annual dividend. Right. So those are the what I would call the common time frames that we think about in cash flow. But what the Uber wealthy, what the hedge funds, what the family offices, what the endowment for places like Harvard, Yale, these big institution or big institutional thinkers have known for centuries is that there are actually other cash flow cycles that are largely ignored by the what I would say, the average investor. Michael Cobb (00:17:21) - And those cash flow cycles are much longer. Teak, for example, is a 25 year cash flow cycle, right? You plant the trees and in 25 years you harvest them. You plant them again, not them. You plant new ones, right? In 25 years you harvest those and then so on and so on. So what you're creating is this 25 year cash flow machine. Now the kinds of returns are truly outsized. I mean you're talking about double digit ers. Now a lot of people say, well Mike, that's great. But what happens if I need the money in year 15? You can't have it because there is no money in year 15. Your trees are still growing, right? So it's this weird investment timeline. It's almost flatlined until the very end. And then it jumps way up and then it drops back down to a flatline again. And so it'd be silly to put tons of money into teak unless you had thousand times tons of money, right? But for some small piece of your investment portfolio where you have enough cash flow coming in from your maybe your job, your rent, your dividends, whatever, that a small piece that moves into this 25 year cash flow cycle with the thought process that this is how I steward wealth into the future, to children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, because the 25 year cycle is almost generational, right? In fact, in the US, it probably is generational because we're having children in the ages of, you know, 25 to 30. Michael Cobb (00:18:44) - So it kind of starts to line up with generational income as opposed to, you know, sort of that whatever biweekly, monthly, yearly income. So it's just a different cash flow cycle. Keith Weinhold (00:18:56) - That's right. And I brought up before that, when you think about the growth of one of your investments, you now get to think about it in two ways. If you own a duplex, it might have growth in its price. However, it doesn't grow into a fourplex and have growth in its price. However, with teak, you might have an increase in the value of the wood, perhaps on a board foot unit basis, and at the same time it is growing in height and volume. Michael Cobb (00:19:26) - Absolutely no. That's a cute way to say it. I never really thought about a duplex growing into a fourplex, right? That's good. Exactly. And so what you do, you're right. You have the physical growth of the trees. And we have located our plantations in the optimal growing conditions, fatigue. And they are very known. Michael Cobb (00:19:42) - Right? I mean, the British started plantation growing teak 350 almost 400 years ago in Southeast Asia. And so the Brits have just meticulously kept statistical records of every plantation that they were involved with the altitude, soil type, rainfall, temperature, on and on and on. And so it's really well known exactly where teak will grow well, and both where we have our plantations, it does Nicaragua and Panama, and we'll stick on Panama today, but the locations are dead center bull's eye locations for the best optimal growing of teak. So you have this growth of a physical thing, right. But you mentioned the board foot price. And by the way, the track record on teak being grown in plantations is 350 years. So what a track record, right? But since 1970. Two. The average price of teak over 5152 years has been 5.5% a year. That's the growth in the price of teak, right? And so you know who knows the future, right? I mean, the future is the future, right. Michael Cobb (00:20:44) - But if a 50 year track record on a 5.5% increase in the value of the teak itself is pretty powerful, right? That's the long track record of nice growth. And when we factor in our teak into our business plan, we take that 5.5 and we make it zero. We just say, what if there is no increase in the price of teak over 25 years? How much will the tree grow? And if that tree is cut down and is sold as lumber? When we'll talk about our Solomon in a minute. If that tree is sold as lumber, what's the value of that lumber today? And what will the tree be worth in that value 25 years from now? And so if things do continue to increase at 5.5% a year, that's just all gravy. And that just starts to take that rate of return and just ratcheted up even further. Keith Weinhold (00:21:33) - Teak has a number of physical properties that make it valuable, from its beauty to its fire resistance and more. Mike has now touched on a few interesting things. Keith Weinhold (00:21:44) - We'll come back and talk about that soon, including how you can achieve residency in Panama by owning teak, what the risks are, and more about their sawmill that he just mentioned, adding value to the operation there. And then we're going to talk about what the prices are. We're talking with ECI Development Chairman and CEO Michael Cobb more when we come back. I'm your host, Keith Wynn. You know, I'll just tell you, for the most passive part of my real estate investing, personally, I put my own dollars with Freedom Family Investments because their funds pay me a stream of regular cash flow in returns, or better than a bank savings account, up to 12%. Their minimums are as low as 25 K. You don't even need to be accredited for some of them. It's all backed by real estate and that kind of love. How the tax benefit of doing this can offset capital gains and your W-2 jobs income. And they've always given me exactly their stated return paid on time. So it's steady income, no surprises while I'm sleeping or just doing the things I love. Keith Weinhold (00:22:52) - For a little insider tip, I've invested in their power fund to get going on that text family to 66866. Oh, and this isn't a solicitation. If you want to invest where I do, just go ahead and text family to six, 686, six.

Speaker 5 (00:23:49) - This is the Real World Network's Cathy Fekete, and you are listening to the always valuable get Rich education with Keith Reinhold. Keith Weinhold (00:24:06) - You're listening to the SOS created more financial freedom for busy people just like you than nearly any show in the world. This is guitarist education. I'm your host, Keith Whitehill. We're talking with ECI development chairman and CEO Mike Cobb about teak hardwood investing in Panama and Nicaragua. Keith Weinhold (00:24:22) - Like, tell us more about how one can achieve residency, for example, in Panama if they own teak there maybe just how residency varies from citizenship? Michael Cobb (00:24:33) - Sure. Well, why don't we start with the second part, how residency differs from citizenship. And there's a good place to start. You know, citizenship is you become a citizen of the country. You have a passport, you can vote. You have every legal right of that country. Right. The decision would have residency to use a US term is like a green card, right? It's the legal permission to live in that country for some period of time. Many of them are permanent. In fact, Panama's is permanent. So once you have a Panama permanent residency, you could literally pick up, you could move there tomorrow, and you could live for the rest of your life in Panama. And so it gives you the legal right to live there. But you don't have a passport. You can't vote. I guess that's the main difference, right? You don't have a passport, you can't vote. Michael Cobb (00:25:18) - But for most people, in fact, the overwhelming majority of people, a residency delivers exactly what somebody wants, which is the ability to live somewhere. Right? And we don't care if we vote or not. I mean, right, we'd still be citizens of our home country, US, Canada, or wherever we can vote back home or citizen. We have our passport from those countries, but the right to live somewhere else is powerful. And so the teak in Panama qualifies you in two ways for two quarter acre parcels, and then the legal fees and stuff like that. It's just under 22,000. A little less gives you permanent residency in Panama. Right? That's such an affordable way to be able to I call it the back pocket. Right. The insurance policy or the plan B in the sense that, like, I think a lot of folks are worried about the direction things are headed. And, you know, you have the teak parcels, which are going to produce a tremendous return. And then this byproduct that you qualify for and you have to go, you have to get down there a couple times. Michael Cobb (00:26:16) - I mean, there's a little bit of administrative stuff, some legal fees, that's all included in that 22,000. Right. So that's all included. You have to go there a couple times. So there's a little bit of friction I would say. But when you get finished with that friction, you are a permanent resident of Panama and you only have to go there one day every two years. So you fly down every other year, whatever. Go, go talk to your trees, maybe sing to your trees a little bit, whatever you want to do and fly. All right. And you have a permanent residency. So it's a very easy, fast way to get that plan B now in the future, if you ever said, well, I really love Panama, I'd like to live here. Panama is beautiful. The city itself, it's got skyscrapers, apartments on the 50th floor of use or killer. You can be out on the beach or somewhere. You can be up in the mountains. So there are a lot of different climates and geographies in Panama where you might say to yourself, yeah, I think I want to come down here and live someday. Michael Cobb (00:27:09) - Well, you already have your residency. You already have the legal right to do that. Keith Weinhold (00:27:14) - Yeah, I mean, 100%. Now, Panama isn't predominantly English speaking like Belize is, but Panama just has a lot of inherent familiarity and feel to a lot of Americans. Since the canal is there and there is that strong American presence, and they've even dollarization their economy there, for example, in Panama. So it might be that nice plan B for you. And tell us more about the residency and the investment into the sawmill and how that works. So it sounds like there's now a value added component is you essentially vertically integrated and now have this sawmill with the teeth. Tell us more about that. Michael Cobb (00:27:56) - So we've always factored in the sawmill into the investment proposition. Because if we were to just take the logs for example, 25 years, you cut down the trees, you stick the logs in the container and send them off to China or India, which is where most of the logs go. The return on investments. Michael Cobb (00:28:13) - It's not great, it's okay, but it's not great. The way you actually get a phenomenal return on investment is you take those logs and you turn them into lumber, which has about a 3 to 4 x differential, or what we call first stage end product or simple end product, which would be something like flooring, which is basically lumber that's been finished one more level rooted and bulldozed so that you can put them together right on a wood floor. So those two modifications from the log all the way to the first degree of finished product, the returns start to really jack it up into that double digit IRR right over 25 years, which again is phenomenal. So we talked about price. But just to give an idea, a $7,000 quarter acre parcel at harvest turned into lumber and first level finished. Product turns into about $94,000, right? So 7000 turns into $90,000, which is a tremendous return. But the way you get that return is to deliver to the marketplace lumber and first grade finished product. And so Soma has always been part of our business plan. Michael Cobb (00:29:19) - Well, we are now two years away from our harvest on our first plantation, the one I planted back in 1999. Right? I mean, it's incredible thinking that, you know, 20, gosh, 24 years ago planted a teak plantation. So we're two years from harvest. We have one more set of kind of odds and end thinning of just trees that didn't quite grow. Right. We're going to use those thinning over the next couple of years to practice in our sawmill. Because you know what? We are going to make mistakes. I mean, you don't ever get it right the first time. So we're going to make mistakes. We're going to learn from them. And by the time we actually do the real harvest of that first plantation, 100 acres of teak, two years from now, we will be up to speed with our sawmill will size up, we'll capacity up to do that. But yeah, so folks can actually we have a $2 million opening in the sawmill. And it's a real simple formula. Michael Cobb (00:30:07) - It's two times your money and then a proportionate 10% interest in the sawmill. So for example, just rough numbers off the top of my head. You put in $100,000, you get twice your money back in about a 3 to 4 year period. As a sawmill really becomes operational. We take the first harvest, like the thinning, aren't going to produce much. In fact, we hope to just basically kind of break even over the next two years while we practice. Then we cut down 100 acres of teak. We start putting that through the sawmill, right? So you get two extra money, you invest 100 to get back to 100, and then your return would be about 13 or $14,000 a year. On going after that, because you get a 10% carried interest in the sawmill into the future as well. So that's the investment opportunity that produces a shorter cash flow, much tighter on the cash flow. But then a nice trailer for many years. But the investment is 100,000. So it's a more significant investment than, say, somebody wanting a little bite sized piece of a quarter acre parcel or two quarter acre type parcels paired with the residency that gets you that. Michael Cobb (00:31:13) - So a couple different levels of investment depending on what your goals are, but also what your timelines are. Keith Weinhold (00:31:19) - We described the sawmill investment numbers there. And then just to clarify, on the quarter acre parcels, they cost $7,000 each with an expected value or return of $94,000 after 25 years. Michael Cobb (00:31:37) - That's correct. 6880. I'm using round numbers, but 6880 is the quarter acre teak and right at harvest when it processes through the sawmill. A little over that, but $94,000 is returned to the investor along the way. I'll mention this. There are maintenance fees. It's about $150 a year. We just take a credit card. We just tap it once a year. That takes care of property taxes, thinning, cleaning, anything that they have to do with the plantation. So $150 a year, your maintenance fee. But yeah, 6880 turns into 94,025 years. If teak continues to go up at 5.5% a year, the return would be better than that. Keith Weinhold (00:32:16) - You probably have investors that come in oftentimes from North America, maybe some from Europe, and they see this as a really low cost of entry, $6,880 for one quarter acre parcel. Keith Weinhold (00:32:29) - So are there any risks that one should consider? Therefore, if they're a first time investor abroad, maybe something they're not thinking about if they buy a rental single family home in their own hometown? Michael Cobb (00:32:41) - Yeah. Very different. I mean, in some ways it's very different. In other ways it's pretty similar. Right. You're going to get title to the property. The process of getting title will be a little different. You're going to have to send in copies of your passport, a notarized utility bill. Just some things that you wouldn't have to do if you were buying a property in the States. But at the end of the day, you will get what's called Escritorio Publica public title. So it's a registered land deed. And so that part of it's all pretty similar risk factors. Absolutely. The business plan has them in there. But the big ones are any kind of disease. It's monoculture. So I mean a disease could come through and kill all the trees. Right. The good thing there is, again, teak has a 350 year track record of being managed and grown in plantations. Michael Cobb (00:33:24) - So it has a long track record where they've kind of figured out, well, if this happens, then do this or if this pest comes along. This is how we, you know, we mitigate that, but nothing can mitigate all risk. That fire is an interesting one. Fire is a risk in the first three years of teak. So we call it baby teak. But once the tea trees are 3 to 4 years old, they're really above any kind of fire. Because you clean the plantation and the guys are in there with the machetes chopping to keep the, you know, the brushed and grass down in the dry season, which, by the way, you mention the qualities of teak, the hardness of teak is actually the most. Prized quality. And so the hardest of the teak that we get will actually be taken and sold as marine lumber, which is an unbelievable differential in price. But only 5 to 10% of your teak would qualify as marine lumber. So it's a small percentage, but the value of that is very, very high because it's set to hardwood. Michael Cobb (00:34:20) - But the rest of the tree is also likewise very hard. The dry season is what cures the teak. And so in the dry season teak drops its leaves. And so it's very resistant to fire. If you do good maintenance on the plantation, we do so fires only a risk really in the first three years. And we actually warranty the trees of a fire comes through. In the first three years. We replant the plantation for any parts that are burned. So there's sort of a warranty that comes with the first three years. I mean, the other risks are political risk. What if Panama goes off the rails? The good thing about Panama, it's got the canal. And that is a major, vital strategic US interest. I just don't see the US letting Panama kind of go off the rails. But it could. But those I think are the three what I would call main risk factors. And we mitigate those to the best way possible. Keith Weinhold (00:35:13) - You heard Mike mention about the thinning and cleaning. Yes, there is ongoing management, but that is already handled and taken care of in any of the prices that you already mentioned. Keith Weinhold (00:35:24) - Is that right, Mike? Michael Cobb (00:35:25) - Yeah, correct. And we outsource to a company called Geo Forest. All Geo Forest, all. They've been our plantation manager from since 1999. And and they're phenomenal. What they do, their world class. They've been doing it for longer than 25 years, maybe 30 years at this point. But we outsource what we have to outsource because we're not management plantation managers. So we can find folks that are. Keith Weinhold (00:35:47) - The same property manager for a quarter century, a property manager that actually doesn't get fired. Hey, that's a novel concept. Two times two is what some investors back here in the U.S. are thinking with their residential real estate investments. If you want to learn more about this investment, I encourage you to check it out. You can do that through Gray Marketplace at Gray marketplace.com/teak. Mike, do you still offer tours. Michael Cobb (00:36:16) - Oh my goodness yes. And I hope that you will take us up on the opportunity to come down and see the dairy and province. But yes, we do. Michael Cobb (00:36:24) - And I don't know the dates off the top of my head, but for folks who are interested, uh, two things. One, we actually run a tour that's fun because it's a group of people and it's just, you know, you come down and you do it. But if somebody says, hey, I can't make those dates, but I want to come see the trees. Yeah, it's very reasonable. I think it's a couple hundred bucks. They pick you up at your hotel, they'll run you out to the plantation, bring you back. But it's a whole day. I mean, it's four hours outside of Panama City and four hours back, so it's a long day. And if it's a couple, it's still 200. It's basically for the vehicle out and back. Right? The driver and the vehicle. So you can come anytime or you can come with a group. And if you come with a group there is no charge. I mean, we get the van or the bus and we pay for it all. Michael Cobb (00:37:03) - And yeah, we make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and we have fun. Keith Weinhold (00:37:07) - All right. Well, I think people have probably covered for the tea more than the sandwiches, but that is a nice touch that you do for people because you do that whether someone is a great investor or not, whether they haven't invested at all yet, and they just want to go ahead and check it out. And you can learn more about those dates at GR marketplace.com/teague Mike, it's always such a fun chat to discuss something so exotic. It's been great having you back on the show. Michael Cobb (00:37:34) - Nice to be back with you. I look forward to seeing you in Panama one of these days. Keith Weinhold (00:37:43) - Trees grow through recessions, they grow through market cycles, they grow through Covid, and trees just keep growing through every single fed rate decision. The wealthiest families on the planet, the top 1%. They have locked up vast portions of their wealth for timeframes even longer than the 25 year peak harvest cycle. In fact, Harvard has fully 10% of its endowment, specifically in timber. Keith Weinhold (00:38:11) - To follow up on what I asked earlier, as we're discussing non-residential real estate today, Earth's highest point above sea level is Mount Everest. The highest from base to peak is Monica. But Earth's highest piece of land, uh, the highest point is measured from the center of the Earth is Chimborazo Volcano, Ecuador. That's because Earth is not a perfect sphere. But there's an equatorial bulge. That's what I was climbing ten days ago. Earth's highest real estate, Chimborazo, was also there for the closest real estate to the sun and moon. But back down here at a lower elevation where the teak plantations are in Panama and Nicaragua, there are no loans for teak. But at prices under seven K, many GRI listeners have found that they don't need a loan and they have bought ten or more parcels. But you can buy as few as 1 or 2 a quarter acre teak parcels and then later cash it out for yourself or build that wealth legacy for your family. Kind of like the top 1%.

Son Rompe Pera started as a street band in Mexico City, but the marimba-playing cumbia punks have spent the past six years honing an electrifying and buzzy mix of modern cumbia, tropical dance beats, hard-hitting punk, psychedelic guitars, traditional Mexican and Colombian rhythms, horns, and a pinch of dub and hip hop, (Kennedy Center program notes.) Their 2020 record Batuco, named after the band's marimba player father, leaned more toward a folkloric, traditional sound by way of nine covers. However, their 2023 record, Chimborazo, delivers 12 originals that really bring the marimba to the mosh pit, including a song where the title is a Chilean expletive and is based on a dream about an alien abduction.

Une semaine après l'ouragan Otis qui a fait 46 morts, la semaine dernière, dans l'État du Guerrero, au Mexique, le président Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador a présenté un plan de reconstruction. Un plan de 3,5 milliards de dollars pour reconstruire Acapulco et ses environs. « Nous aiderons les proches des personnes ayant perdu la vie dans l'ouragan ». Le président mexicain a détaillé un plan de reconstruction, à hauteur de 61 milliards de pesos. L'ouragan Otis a dévasté, la semaine dernière, la très touristique station balnéaire d'Acapulco. Le plan prévoit la livraison de nourriture aux personnes touchées par l'ouragan, avec des prêts aux petits commerces qui ont été détruits, notamment dans l'industrie hôtelière. Le coût des dégâts pourrait s'élever à 15 milliards de dollars, selon une estimation de la société Enki Research, spécialiste en évaluation des risques.Haïti : les cours n'ont pas repris dans certaines écoles de la capitalePlusieurs semaines après la rentrée scolaire, la classe n'a pas repris dans certains établissements de Port-au-Prince. Et pour cause : ils accueillent des réfugiés, des personnes ayant fui la violence des gangs. « Beaucoup de gens qui habitaient notamment le quartier de Carrefour-Feuilles se sont réfugiés dans des écoles », détaille Frantz Duval, rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste. « Les élèves ne peuvent pas retourner à l'école car leurs proches habitent ces écoles qui servent d'abris. Malheureusement, dans la majorité des cas, ces établissements scolaires ne peuvent pas reprendre les cours. »La situation sécuritaire a fait 200 000 déplacés, dont 40 000 à Port-au-Prince, selon le PAM, le Programme Alimentaire Mondial. « Les quartiers tombent les uns après les autres, explique Frantz Duval. La police n'a que rarement repris des quartiers. […] Cela ne fait que traîner, cela se passe surtout dans la région de Port-au-Prince mais aussi dans l'Artibonite, où des villes entières sont quasiment vides ».Équateur : rencontre avec le dernier mineur de glaceDepuis ses 15 ans, Baltazar Ushca, 78 ans, gravit les 5 000 mètres du volcan Chimborazo pour couper de gros morceaux de glace. Il est le dernier hielero, un métier traditionnel, particulièrement éreintant. « Pour monter avec les mules, il faut quatre heures, puis deux heures en descente », explique Baltazar Ushca, au micro d'Éric Samson, notre correspondant. « On casse les murs de glace avec des pics et des barres de fer, après avoir enlevé la terre qui les couvre ». Cette tradition a débuté, il y a deux siècles. La glace du Chimborazo était alors très prisée. La famille du coupeur de glace descendait vendre ces blocs sur les marchés. On l'utilisait pour la râper et en faire des glaces. Pour maintenir la tradition, le canton de Guano, d'où est originaire le mineur, espèrent que ses enfants reprendront ce métier, pour que le dernier hielero… ne soit peut-être pas le dernier.Le journal de la 1èreSelon le dernier rapport de l'Agence Régionale de Santé, la Martinique manque de médecins.

Scott Lehmann and Shayna Unger, are aiming to be the first American deaf couple and, to their knowledge, the second and third deaf climbers to summit Mount Everest. Also, they are trying to become the first deaf couple to compete the Seven Summits. Both were born, as they say, profoundly deaf, meaning they had no hearing at all. They live in the Washington, D.C., area and are educators and mountaineers. They summited Denali, Aconcagua, Kilimanjaro, Ecuador's Chimborazo and Cotopaxi, and Mont Blanc, plus Scott has all the US High Point. A third-generation deaf person, Scott is an educator and a mountaineer. Given the lack of deaf representation in the outdoors and lack of communication access to outdoor education, the outdoors was not a big part of Scott's life until he was 23 when he climbed a mountain for the first time. Shayna is a deaf woman, an educator and a mountaineer. Growing up, Shayna often went on camping trips with her deaf family in the 1990s, but they never did. They have full access to outdoor sports. It was not until college that Shayna started traveling and fell in love with climbing mountains. We cover how they will communicate with other climbers, plus the Sherpas, during their climb. They are also promoting their project, Seeing Beyond: Seven Summits. As they say on their site: Seeing Beyond: Seven Summits is not just about Scott and Shayna being the first deaf individuals to reach Seven Summits, the highest peaks on each of the world's seven continents–it is also about two deaf people sharing a dream with their own community, the deaf and hard-of-hearing community. They are climbing with Seven Summits Treks and will update their website, and their social media, Facebook, Instagram and You Tube throughout the expedition. Climb On!AlanMemories are Everything

Además, los comisionados ratificaron a Ramsses Torres como presidente de la Comisión de Héroes y Heroínas, respecto de lo cual la consejera Estupiñán reafirmó su apoyo ante el “reto enorme que tiene la Comisión para que se reconozca a todas las personas que lo merezcan”, dentro del Sexto Trámite Sumario que está en desarrollo. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hechosecuador/message
El presidente de la Comisión de Soberanía, Integración y Seguridad Integral, Ramiro Narváez, expresó su preocupación porque el Gobierno no ha remitido ni ha proporcionado información en torno al Plan de Seguridad Ciudadana. Este pronunciamiento lo realizó ante la inasistencia de los gobernadores de Chimborazo, Tungurahua y Cañar, quienes fueron convocados para que expliquen los planes que han previsto para enfrentar la creciente inseguridad en sus respectivas provincias, razón por la que insistirán en esas comparecencias para lograr la información requerida. El legislador Blasco Luna cuestionó la actitud asumida por los representantes del Ejecutivo en las provincias, que se han negado a comparecer ante la comisión. “El incremento de los homicidios es grave. En 2016 se reportaban 5.68% por cada 100 mil habitantes y en 2021 este rubro subió a 13.89%”, enfatizó De su lado la asambleísta Patricia Núñez manifestó que es evidente que en la ciudad de Riobamba los niveles de inseguridad se han incrementado, situación que preocupa a la ciudadanía que se halla expuesta a la delicuencia. En otro orden, la comisión decidió unificar el proyecto de reformas al Código Orgánico Integral Penal (COIP), relacionado con el delito de tenencia y porte de armas y el proyecto de reformas a varios cuerpos legales para el fortalecimiento institucional y la seguridad integral. Además la asambleísta Nuñez afirmó que ha solicitado información en torno al “Caso Narcogenerales” a varias autoridades, pero que no han tenido respuesta, por lo que sugirió disponer la comparecencia del personal técnico y talento humano de la Comandancia de la Policía Nacional, para que entreguen de información completa, propuesta que fue acogida por unanimidad. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hechosecuador/message

En el marco de la construcción del informe para segundo debate proyecto de Ley Reformatoria a Varias Leyes para el Desarrollo, Regulación y Control de los Servicios Financieros Tecnológicos (Ley Fintech), la Comisión de Desarrollo Económico llevó a cabo un taller de trabajo con varios especialistas en la materia y los representantes de las distintas bancadas de la Asamblea Nacional para aclarar el beneficio y alcance de la iniciativa legal. Juan Francisco Simone, representante de Pérez Bustamante & Ponce, manifestó que este proyecto es necesario y urgente, y se requiere que la Ley Fintech sea una norma flexible que permita prosperar la actividad financiera. “Tenemos que romper las inflexibilidades de la ley para que estas entidades puedan funcionar, se puedan constituir y puedan operar de forma regulada; que de ninguna forma los derechos de los usuarios se vean menoscabados, y que compitan en igualdad de condiciones con el resto de actores del sistema financiero”, aseguró. Philippe Fossaert y Horacio Liendo, representantes de Mercado Libre, destacaron la importancia de dar a la gente la oportunidad de recibir créditos y dineros por medio de plataformas digitales. “Todo este tipo de actividades solamente van a surgir una vez que se habiliten; eso quiere decir que el crecimiento de la industria Fintech en Ecuador puede llegar a ser enorme”, afirmó Horacio Liendo. Gissela Montalvo, de la Cámara de Innovación y Tecnología Ecuatoriana, enfatizó que Fintech es una industria que brinda servicios financieros de manera eficiente, ágil, cómoda y confiable. Entre las ventajas, destacó la clara trazabilidad de transacciones, ofertar productos financieros accesibles y el valor agregado que ofrece a los productos financieros que ya existen. Además, que otorgará a los negocios legalidad, seguridad jurídica y un ambiente más flexible para nuevos modelos de negocio. Esteban Torres, jefe de bancada del Partido Social Cristiano, señaló que Ecuador apenas recibe alrededor de 400 a 500 millones de dólares de inversión extranjera, que es uno de los valores más bajos de la región. Por ello, hace un llamado a los legisladores para que, a través de esta iniciativa legal, se den más herramientas para incrementar la inversión. De su lado, Daniel Domínguez, delegado de la bancada de Izquierda Democrática, manifestó que es una normativa viable; mientras que Francisco Mendoza, delegado de la Bancada del Acuerdo Nacional, solicitó priorizar la flexibilización de la norma, de modo que sea amigable con las personas y empresas que traerán inversión al Ecuador. Por solicitud de la asambleísta Nathalie Viteri, los comisionados recibieron en comisión general a Merwin Ruiz y Roger Zambrano, emprendedores de la provincia de Chimborazo, quienes aseguraron que los servicios Fintech les permitirá acceder a capitales y aplicar nuevas formas de promocionar sus productos. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hechosecuador/message
El asambleísta por Chimborazo, John Vinueza, presentó el proyecto de Ley Orgánica para la Rehabilitación Social Efectiva y una Sociedad de Paz, que pretende garantizar y salvaguardar el trabajo de los agentes penitenciarios, la rehabilitación y reinserción social de las personas privadas de libertad (PPL), mediante el establecimiento de reglas de convivencia dentro de los centros de rehabilitación social, y la regulación del régimen de trabajo de los agentes de vigilancia y control de este sistema. La iniciativa legal tiene 181 artículos, distribuidos en cinco capítulos, que abordan temas relacionados con derechos de los PPL, en cuanto a acceso a salud, régimen de visitas, trabajo, recreación y educación; regulación del personal de vigilancia, régimen disciplinario para reclusos y agentes penitenciarios; y, procesos de requisas efectivas y dignas. John Vinueza explicó que uno de los mayores problemas es la vigencia de reglamentos inconexos en materia de penitenciaria. Por ello, el proyecto agrupa en un solo cuerpo legal las necesidades y da tratamiento integral al sistema de rehabilitación social. “Con ayuda de la ciudadanía hemos construido un cuerpo normativo que elimina muchas contradicciones del sistema actual y fomenta una sociedad de paz”, afirmó. De su lado, la asambleísta Diana Pesántez aseguró que el proyecto aporta a solucionar en parte la profunda crisis carcelaria que atraviesa el país. Subrayó que la vida y la integridad de los guías penitenciarios, las personas privadas de libertad y sus familiares deben estar garantizadas en los centros de rehabilitación social. En el acto de presentación del proyecto, el abogado Iván Campaña Cueva y el presidente la Asociación de Servidores Penitenciarios del Ecuador, Carlos Ordóñez, recibieron un reconocimiento por su activa participación en la construcción de esta iniciativa legal. Participaron de este encuentro Vianca Gavilanes, representante de la Fundación Dignidad; Rodrigo Vélez, representante de Parametría Consultores; Luz Villarreal, exdirectora del Sistema Nacional de Rehabilitación Social; Marco Eduardo Jurado, representante de la Fundación de Derechos Humanos (INCCADI); y, Gerardo Zapata, coordinador de la Federación Nacional de Organizaciones Campecinas (Fenoc). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hechosecuador/message
Today, the idea that the Himalayas have the world's tallest peaks—by a large margin—is entirely uncontroversial. Just about anyone can name Mount Everest and K2 as the world's tallest and second-tallest mountains respectively. But the idea that this mountain range had the highest summits used to be quite controversial. Mountaineers claimed that the Himalayas could not be taller than peaks in Europe or South America, like Ecuador's Chimborazo. Even when it was proven that the Himalayas were taller, mountaineers would praised the aesthetic quality of European and South American peaks—essentially giving the nineteenth-century equivalent of “height isn't everything” That's merely one of the historical details from Lachlan Fleetwood's Science on the Roof of the World: Empire and the Remaking of the Himalaya (Cambridge University Press, 2022), which studies the first attempts to survey this mountain range. Fleetwood's book examines not just the expeditions themselves, but also how surveyors procured their equipment, how they handled altitude sickness, and the fossils they found (among other details), in order to analyze the connection between knowledge, the frontier, and empire. Lachlan Fleetwood is a historian of science, empire, geography and environment. He holds a PhD in history from Cambridge University, and is currently a research fellow at University College Dublin. He is currently developing a new project that examines climatic sciences and environmental determinism in imperial surveys of Central Asia and Mesopotamia in the long nineteenth century. In this interview, Lachlan and I talk about the Himalayas, how the first surveyors studied them, and why these early efforts to understand this mountain range are important to how we understand the history of science.

Charles Darwin (1809 -1882) est l'auteur de la «théorie de l'Évolution». En 1859, la publication de L'Origine des espèces eût l'effet d'un impact d'astéroïde dans la mare religieuse de cette époque. La plus grande révolution de l'histoire de la biologie a commencé... Dans cet épisode, l'explorateur Alexander Von Humboldt, le botaniste et entomologiste John Henslow et le géologue Charles Lyell, dont les explorations, les études et les théories ont beaucoup influencé le jeune Darwin. Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) est le «second découvreur de l'Amérique». Cet allemand, frère intrépide du fondateur de l'université de Berlin, était un mix entre De Vinci et Mike Horn pour faire simple;) Un esprit universel, qui remonté l'Orénoque en pirogue, escaladé le volcan Chimborazo (un volcan très spécial, cf épisodes volcans avec JM Bardintzeff), bravant bien des tempêtes au long cours... John Stevens Henslow obtient en 1822 la chaire de minéralogie de l'université de Cambridge. Ce religieux progressisite se passionne pour la botanique et l'entomologie. Henslow est un professeur très recherché. Son élève Charles Darwin lui doit son intérêt pour l'histoire naturelle. C'est grâce à Henslow que Darwin rencontre le capitaine Robert FitzRoy du HMS Beagle. Le géologue Charles Lyell expose vers 1830 une théorie très controversée: la terre aurait été façonnée lentement, pendant des millions d'années, par des forces toujours existantes (uniformitarisme). Cette vision s'oppose au catastrophisme soutenu par Cuvier. Selon le Français, la Terre avait été modelée par une série de catastrophes, tel le déluge, dans un laps de temps court. Cuvier was wrong... Lyell, ami proche de Charles Darwin, est l'un des premiers scientifiques reconnus à apporter son appui à L'Origine des espèces, à une époque où Darwin essuyait une grosse shitstorm... Jean-Claude Simard est professeur de philosophie et chercheur à l'Université du Québec à Montréal, et un grand connaisseur de la vie de Charles Darwin.
