Your pool pH isn't “random” or “stubborn” and once you understand what's actually driving the rise, you can finally stop the endless acid cycle. We dig into the real reason pH climbs week after week: CO2 off gassing. Total alkalinity controls how much carbon dioxide wants to escape, and when alkalinity is too high, the water is essentially overcarbonated. As CO2 leaves the water to reach equilibrium with the air, pH rises, and the problem repeats.We also get honest about the pools that fight you the hardest: feature pools with negative edges, spillways, waterfalls, scuppers, rock cascades, spa jets, and blowers. All that aeration and turbulence accelerates CO2 loss, which means faster pH drift no matter how “perfect” your numbers look on paper. You'll hear a simple spa-style experiment that makes the aeration effect impossible to ignore, plus the hard truth that some extreme designs may require a CO2 injection system if you want truly stable pH.Saltwater chlorine generator pools add their own twist. We explain how SWGs raise pH through hydroxide production and continuous aeration inside the cell, then talk through practical ways to reduce generator runtime by cutting chlorine demand. That leads into borates, cyanuric acid strategy, and why dialing in free chlorine as a percentage of CYA can work better than a one-size-fits-all target. We also clear up a long-running pool chemistry myth: liquid chlorine and calcium hypochlorite don't create a lasting pH rise after chlorine is consumed.If you want fewer corrections, steadier readings, and a repeatable method for controlling rising pool pH, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a pool owner or pool pro who's fighting pH, and leave a review with your biggest pH question.We break down why pool pH keeps rising and why the real driver is often CO2 off gassing tied to total alkalinity and aeration. We share practical targets and field-tested fixes for salt pools, feature pools, and new plaster so you can stop chasing pH every week.  • total alkalinity controlling CO2 off gassing and pH drift  • why high TA makes pH rise faster and more often  • setting realistic TA targets and lowering TA to stabilize pH  • how waterfalls, spillways, negative edges, jets, and turbulence push pH up  • when a CO2 injector becomes the only realistic path  • saltwater chlorine generator effects including hydroxide production and aeration in the cell  • using borates to reduce chlorine demand and slow pH rise  • balancing cyanuric acid and free chlorine as a percentage strategy  • plaster hydration in new pools raising pH for months  • why liquid chlorine and cal hypo do not cause lasting pH rise after chlorine is spent  Learn more at SwimmingPoollearning.com.  If you're interested in the coaching program, you can learn more at pullguycoaching.com.  Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

TakeawaysToby Doeden opposes any attempt to repeal HB 1052 and has promised the fastest veto in South Dakota history if a repeal ever reaches his desk as governor.On the question of a compromise threshold for eminent domain projects, Doeden is firm: when it comes to God-given constitutional rights, there is no wiggle room and no compromise.Doeden believes true economic development in South Dakota doesn't require multi-billion dollar subsidized projects. It comes from supporting local entrepreneurs, small businesses, farmers, and ranchers.Coming off a first-place finish in the June 2nd Republican primary with 31% of the vote in a four-way race, Toby Doeden sits down with Amanda Radke for a direct, issue-focused conversation on the property rights topics South Dakota landowners care about most.This is Part 1 of American Land and Legacy's two-part exclusive interview series ahead of the July 28th runoff election, where Doeden will face Interim Governor Larry Rhoden. With thousands of landowners reaching out to Amanda asking who to support, she took the question straight to the candidates themselves.The conversation covers the full range of property rights issues at stake in this race: the legacy of SB 201 and the overwhelming voter rejection of RL 21, the landmark HB 1052 that eliminated eminent domain for CO2 pipelines, the ongoing debate over data centers and tax exemptions, and how a Doeden administration would respond to federal pressure to expand eminent domain for energy infrastructure.Doeden is clear on his foundational position: every decision he makes as governor will be rooted in protecting God-given constitutional rights, and he will mirror the will of the people, not the will of lobbyists and big donors. He points to the 59% voter rejection of RL 21 across 65 of 66 counties as proof of where South Dakotans stand, and argues that the legislature's decision to push SB 201 through anyway was a direct failure to represent the people.He also addresses the economy, rural communities, and what he sees as the real differences between himself and his runoff opponent, including a 38% increase in state spending, rising crime, doubled property taxes, and a sales tax increase coming in 2027.Key Topics CoveredThe SB 201 / RL 21 Landowner Bill of Rights: what went wrong and how a Doeden administration would honor the will of South Dakota votersHB 1052 and eminent domain for CO2 pipelines: Doeden's commitment to protecting and defending this nation-leading legislationWhether a compromise threshold for pipeline projects is on the table (short answer: no)The data center debate: the 50-year tax exemption attempt versus the Data Center Bill of Rights for Citizens passed by Senator Carr and Speaker HansenPresident Trump's executive orders expanding eminent domain for energy infrastructure and how Doeden would balance federal direction with South Dakota's states' rightsWhat economic development actually looks like for South Dakota, and why it doesn't require big subsidized projectsThe challenges facing rural communities, small farms, and ranches, and who Doeden would bring to the table to address themHow Doeden's primary results reflect a statewide demand for change, and what he sees as the key differences between his vision and Larry Rhoden's recordReuniting the Republican Party after a competitive four-way primary and what that means going into the runoffhttps://www.americanlandandlegacy.org/

Cũng như nhiều nước khác, trước tình hình nguồn cung dầu hỏa bị gián đoạn do chiến tranh Mỹ-Iran, để bảo đảm an ninh năng lượng, Việt Nam buộc phải dựa vào điện than nhiều hơn cho dù làm như vậy sẽ càng khó mà thực hiện các cam kết về chống biến đổi khí hậu. Theo Cơ quan Thông tin Năng lượng Mỹ (EIA), hơn 80% lượng dầu thô và khí tự nhiên hóa lỏng (LNG) đi qua eo biển Hormuz là được xuất khẩu sang châu Á. Việc tuyến hàng hải này bị phong tỏa đẩy khu vực vào tình thế vô cùng khó khăn. Đặc biệt, do nguồn cung khan hiếm, giá khí LNG đã tăng vọt ở thị trường châu Á, trong khi giá than tăng ít hơn nhiều, cho nên nhiều nước trong khu vực quay trở lại với điện than.  Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ ngày 12/05/2026, giáo sư Phạm Duy Hiển, nguyên Viện trưởng Viện nghiên cứu hạt nhân Đà Lạt, cũng ghi nhận đây là tình hình chung của các nước châu Á: “Không chỉ riêng Việt Nam mà hầu hết nhiều nước ở châu Á và các nước lớn như Trung Quốc, Ấn Độ ... đều bị tác động. Trung Quốc là một nước có rất nhiều than, cho nên có lợi thế. Bây giờ họ quay sang sử dụng than nhiều hơn trong một thời gian, tuy cũng biết làm như thế là ảnh hưởng đến lời hứa của Trung Quốc về cắt giảm khí thải gây hiệu ứng nhà kính. Các chuyên gia, các công ty về quản lý năng lượng lớn thế giới đều dự báo Trung Quốc trong 5 năm tới vẫn phải dựa vào việc mở rộng các nhà máy điện chạy than, chứ không có cách nào khác cả. Ấn Độ cũng vậy. Còn những nước như Hàn Quốc và Nhật Bản trước tình hình hiện nay đều phải cho phép nâng lên tỷ lệ điện than.”  Theo nhận định của Discovery Alert, trang thông tin chuyên về khai thác mỏ trên thế giới, trong bài viết đăng ngày 13/04/2026, “không giống như các quốc gia phát triển có các nguồn năng lượng đa dạng và dự trữ chiến lược dồi dào, các nền kinh tế nhỏ hơn như Việt Nam thường phụ thuộc nhiều vào nhiên liệu nhập khẩu và thiếu tính linh hoạt về cơ sở hạ tầng để nhanh chóng chuyển đổi giữa các nguồn năng lượng trong trường hợp khẩn cấp về nguồn cung. Hơn nữa, các quốc gia này còn đối mặt với tác động của thị trường khí hóa lỏng (LNG) và sự biến động giá dầu, làm trầm trọng thêm tính dễ bị tổn thương của kinh tế.”  Discovery Alert ghi nhận việc Việt Nam dựa vào điện than khi chiến tranh Mỹ-Iran leo thang đã trở nên rõ nét trong tháng 3/2026, khi sản lượng điện than tăng vọt, chiếm 56% tổng sản lượng điện, mức cao nhất kể từ giữa năm 2025. Giáo sư Phạm Duy Hiển cho rằng trong thời gian tới, Việt Nam sẽ phải tiếp tục dựa nhiều vào điện than, vì các nguồn điện năng khác không đủ để đáp ứng nhu cầu: “Việt Nam hiện nay đã sống với điện than. Điện than bình thường chiếm tỷ lệ gần 50% công suất phát điện, cho nên Việt Nam cũng bị ảnh hưởng. Mà về điện than, Việt Nam phải đi mua thêm than của các nước như Indonesia và Trung Quốc, cụ thể là tháng 3 vừa rồi đã nhập đến mấy triệu tấn than. Dự kiến con số đó có thể sẽ phải tăng lên. Kinh phí để nhập khẩu than cũng lớn, nhưng bây giờ dầu sao thì vẫn hơn là không có. Cho nên tạm thời trong một thời gian phải sử dụng điện than và theo tôi nghĩ Việt Nam cũng chưa có cách nào khác. Còn nếu dựa vào những nguồn năng lượng khác, thì bây giờ nguồn năng lượng tái tạo cũng đã được khai thác khá nhiều rồi và cũng có tác dụng nhất định. Nhưng nguồn năng lượng này cũng hạn chế, không thể nâng lên nhiều hơn nữa.  Gần đây người nói nhiều về điện hạt nhân. Nếu có được thì điện hạt nhân sẽ là một giải pháp tương đối lớn để giải quyết vấn đề thiếu điện thay cho than. Đó là một loại năng lượng sạch. Thế nhưng chưa biết là bao giờ mới có thể đặt bút ký với một đối tác bên ngoài để cung cấp nhà máy điện hạt nhân cho mình. Từ thời điểm đó thì sau hàng chục năm nữa may ra mới có điện. Kinh nghiệm của Bangladesh cho thấy nước này bắt đầu có kinh phí để xây dựng và có các hợp đồng liên chính phủ là vào năm 2017. Nhưng tới cuối năm 2026 thì may ra mới có thể đưa điện lên lưới được. Gần đây thế giới cũng hô hào đẩy mạnh điện hạt nhân, nhưng điện hạt nhân đâu có dễ làm đối với Việt Nam cũng như đối với những nước khác . Đó không phải là một công nghệ có sẵn như than. Nhà máy điện chạy than thì quá là cổ điển rồi, mua về là có thể lắp đặt và cho chạy được ngay. Còn điện hạt nhân thì cần bao nhiêu thứ: cơ sở hạ tầng, năng lượng, nhiên liệu, an toàn….  Bây giờ có một hy vọng là khí thiên nhiên từ các mỏ khí mới được phát hiện được, sẽ giúp giải quyết vấn đề cân bằng năng lượng ở Việt Nam." Thế nhưng vấn đề là hiện nay công suất điện khí còn khiêm tốn của Việt Nam càng làm hạn chế các giải pháp thay thế trong thời kỳ khủng hoảng. Các nhà máy điện khí chỉ sản xuất được 2,1 TWh trong tháng 3 năm 2026, chiếm khoảng 7% tổng sản lượng điện. Hạn chế về cơ sở hạ tầng này có nghĩa là khí đốt tự nhiên không thể đóng vai trò cơ chế thay thế tức thời khi giá năng lượng nhập khẩu tăng vọt, hoặc khi nguồn cung bị gián đoạn.  Việt Nam cũng đang phải sản xuất than nhiều hơn để đáp ứng cho các nhà máy nhiệt điện. Theo báo chí trong nước, ngày 15/04, bộ Nông Nghiệp và Môi Trường đã đề nghị chính phủ cho phép tăng công suất khai thác than, cụ thể là cho phép khai thác vượt không quá 15% công suất đối với các giấy phép khai thác than đang còn hiệu lực, nhằm đảm bảo an ninh năng lượng quốc gia. Theo bộ này, “than trong nước tiếp tục giữ vai trò là nguồn năng lượng nền tảng và năng lực khai thác thực tế của các mỏ còn dư địa để tăng sản lượng”.  Nhà máy Nhiệt điện Vũng Áng II ở tỉnh Hà Tĩnh cũng vừa được khánh thành ngày 18/04. Đây là dự án hợp tác giữa Nhật Bản và Hàn Quốc, trong đó 60% cổ phần thuộc về các công ty Nhật Bản đứng đầu là tập đoàn Mitsubishi và 40% cổ phần thuộc về Tập đoàn Điện lực Hàn Quốc. Với tổng công suất hơn 1.300MW, Nhà máy Nhiệt điện Vũng Áng II được giới thiệu là sử dụng “công nghệ hiện đại nhất đối với các nhà máy nhiệt điện than tại Việt Nam”, làm giảm lượng tiêu hao nhiên liệu dẫn đến cắt giảm phát thải. Vấn đề đặt ra là phải làm sao hạn chế tác động của các nhà máy điện than đối với môi trường và khí hậu, bởi vì Việt Nam còn phải thực hiện những cam kết với quốc tế về chống biến đổi khí hậu. Giáo sư Phạm Duy Hiển ghi nhận: “Các nhà máy điện chạy than bây giờ cũng sử dụng những công nghệ tương đối là tiên tiến, tránh ô nhiễm môi trường. Ô nhiễm môi trường nay cũng đỡ một phần là bởi vì ngày xưa các nhà máy phát ra bừa bãi từ ống khói chứ bây giờ thì có những quy chế nhất định. Các khí thải từ nhà máy điện than thì cũng đã bắt đầu được xử lý để không gây ô nhiễm môi trường. Rồi còn phải xử lý những xỉ than. Lâu lâu thì vẫn thấy nói có ô nhiễm chỗ này chỗ khác, nhưng tôi chắc là dần dần rồi cũng phải giải quyết. Ô nhiễm ở chỗ nào thì người dân ở đó sẽ phản ảnh, các cơ quan có trách nhiệm phải giải quyết. Thực ra mà nói thì dùng điện than không chỉ làm tăng lượng khí CO2, mà còn có rất nhiều khí độc khác từ nhà máy điện than thải ra. Trung Quốc đã thành công trong vấn đề này, cho nên bắt đầu từ 2006, tức là cách đây đến 20 chục năm, họ đã có quyết định của nhà nước là bắt buộc giảm phát thải các cái khí độc từ các nhà máy điện chạy than. Và họ đã thành công nhiều, tức là giảm ô nhiễm khá nhiều. Thế thì bây giờ nếu sản lượng điện than nhiều quá, thì có lẽ cũng phải đề nghị nhà nước có một cách kiểm tra toàn diện, làm thế nào để các khí phát thải ô nhiễm, không chỉ CO2 và các khí ô nhiễm khác đều thấp, phù hợp với các tiêu chuẩn về môi trường ở Việt Nam."  Cũng theo chiều hướng đó, Việt Nam dự kiến sẽ đóng cửa các nhà máy điện than cũ trên 40 năm tuổi, nếu các nhà máy này không thể chuyển đổi sang sử dụng nhiên liệu sạch như hydrogen, amoniac xanh. Cụ thể, ngày 23/03, chính phủ Hà Nội đã phê duyệt "Đề án cập nhật triển khai tuyên bố chính trị thiết lập quan hệ đối tác chuyển đổi năng lượng công bằng" (JETP).   Sau năm 2030, chính phủ yêu cầu không xây mới nhà máy điện than, đồng thời đàm phán đóng cửa với các nhà máy có tuổi thọ trên 40 năm, không thể chuyển đổi nhiên liệu và không thể đáp ứng lộ trình giảm thải khí nhà kính.

Hij fileert in deze uitzending de huidige communicatie rondom de energietransitie. Volgens hem is de taal gekaapt door ingenieurs en beleidsmakers, waardoor de menselijke maat totaal is verdwenen.

In this episode of PICU Doc on Call, hosts Dr. Monica Gray and Dr. Pradip Kamat explore procedural sedation in the pediatric ICU. They cover sedation levels, pre-screening, risk stratification using ASA classifications, and medication selection tailored to each patient's hemodynamic and respiratory status. Through real-world case discussions involving respiratory failure, septic shock, and acute neurological decline, they highlight the importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring and early adverse event recognition. Key takeaways include avoiding the term "conscious sedation," preparing rescue plans, and prioritizing patient safety through careful assessment and monitoring.Show Highlights:Definitions and levels of sedation (minimal, moderate, deep sedation, and general anesthesia)Importance of terminology in procedural sedationMonitoring sedation levels using scales like the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)Pre-screening and risk stratification considerations for pediatric patientsASA physical status classification system for assessing patient riskUnique challenges of procedural sedation in critically ill childrenAdverse events associated with pediatric procedural sedation, particularly respiratory complicationsManagement strategies for specific cases requiring sedation (e.g., respiratory failure, septic shock)Importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring during sedationKey takeaways for safe sedation practices in the pediatric ICU settingReferences: Nir Atlas; Rahul C.

ON TODAYS PROGRAM…   LE CLERC MUST DO SOMETHING IN AUSTRIA OR HE WILL BE NUMBER TWO!! MCLAREN SAYS BEING A MERCEDES CUSTOMER TEAM IS A DISADVANTAGE! FORMULA ONE RULES KEEP ON EVOLVING! GASLY'S MONACO PODIUM REINSTATEMENT WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO AND… FERNANDO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAKAR RALLY AND RACING AT LE MANS WITH MAX VERSTAPPEN!!!…   THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE HAVE: A MOMENT IN MOTORSPORTS HISTORY…AN INTERVIEW WITH F1 PHOTOGRAPHER PETER NYGARD AND MORE TRIVIA!!! When the rear wing has to go in your carry-on – a look into the different worlds of logistics at Audi How the logistics division of AUDI AG and the Formula 1 project benefit from each other Dieter Braun, Head of Audi Supply Chain, in discussion with his F1 colleagues Björn Brickwedde and Lars Rolack Logistics as a performance factor in motorsport and a driving force in road car production   More than 20 race weekends, global supply chains, tight time windows, geopolitical tensions, and the constant pressure to get every part to the right place on time: Formula 1 is not only a high-performance technological laboratory but also an extreme test for logistics. Many of the challenges faced by Audi Revolut F1 Team on the racetrack are also familiar to Audi Supply Chain – just on a different scale. A discussion between the logistics experts reveals what both worlds can learn from each other.   Dieter Braun, Head of Audi Supply Chain, sums it up: “If there's one thing we need in the company, it's speed. Not just on the racetrack, but when making decisions.” This is exactly where the key leverage lies: Formula 1 demonstrates what quick decisions, clear responsibilities, and precise preparation can achieve. Logistics as a performance factor In Formula 1, logistics directly determines on-track performance. Anything that isn't at the track on time can't be used. If transportation costs are too high, there's less left in the budget for other areas. Björn Brickwedde, Head of Logistics at Audi Revolut F1 Team in Hinwil, Switzerland, explains: “Any savings we make in logistics can be invested in development and parts.” This is especially true under Formula 1's cost cap. Efficient logistics thus becomes a performance factor. Brickwedde cites specific examples: intelligent strategies for return shipments, minimal spare parts inventory, smart route planning, and determining the most cost-effective location from which to ship update parts or components. “Every expense saved can flow into development – and then into lap times.” Audi Supply Chain, in turn, designs and manages the entire customer order process – from ordering an Audi to delivery to the customer. This complex system involves several thousand suppliers in nearly 60 countries to manage the flow of goods comprising around one million parts per day. Every optimization in this cross-divisional core process creates leeway – whether in terms of costs, capital tied up, or the CO2 footprint. “In our role as conductors, we can contribute hundreds of millions in earnings for the company,” says Braun. One example illustrates the scope: Audi Supply Chain doesn't just orchestrate – it also manages crises and, with experienced employees working as a team, overcomes short-term challenges. Braun describes a situation involving the production of the last Audi Q2 cars. A container with displays that could not be reproduced was on its way from China via Dubai to Germany when war broke out in the Middle East. “The shipping company spontaneously decided to call at a port in India and unload all the containers without consulting us,” says Braun. The goods couldn't be obtained in time via India, so Audi organized a detour via Sri Lanka and Turkey. “The parts arrived half a day before they were needed,” says Braun, “otherwise we wouldn't have been able to finish and deliver 2,000 Q2 cars.” Brickwedde's account of the Formula 1 season opener in Melbourne sounds very similar. “A supplementary shipment for the first race was supposed to fly from Zurich to Dubai – that's exactly when restrictions on global air traffic took effect,” he says, referring to canceled transport routes. Important update parts were held up, just like the freight from other teams. “We organized an alternative route with F1 Cargo and DHL and prepared new customs documents. It was a nerve-wracking ordeal for everyone involved – but the parts arrived in Melbourne on Wednesday evening, and thanks to the great teamwork on site, both cars were fully assembled in time for the first session.” In doing so, the logistics team laid the groundwork for Audi Revolut F1 Team to score its first points right off the bat in its debut in the premier class of motorsport. Speed is also a key factor in the Audi Supply Chain The racing series brings into sharp focus what often remains abstract in mass production: the impact of quick decisions. “In a race, you immediately realize when you've made a wrong strategic decision – for example, when you leave the pit lane too late,” says Braun. “From a business perspective at Audi, the impact of a decision often only becomes apparent later, but it can be just as serious. Deciding too late during a crisis is problematic – but so is doing so during planning, for example with long-term investments, which makes it particularly challenging for my team and the relevant departments.” The Formula 1 involvement provides a tangible narrative for this. Braun uses the Audi R26 as a permanent background image for his meetings – not just out of enthusiasm for motorsport, but as a signal to the organization: speed matters in the supply chain, too. Formula 1 shows that a good solution at the right time is more valuable than a perfect solution that comes too late. When the rear wing has to go in your carry-on The most exciting examples emerge where planning and improvisation meet. Brickwedde talks about the limited availability of parts during race operations: “We manage the production of parts very efficiently. This is partly because of the cost cap, but also because we only take to the racetrack what we genuinely believe we'll need. If something unexpected happens, you've got to think on your feet. This means that a team member might have to carry the necessary components in their luggage so that they're available at the track as quickly as possible. In a pinch, these could even be parts of a rear wing.” Time windows are tight on the power unit side as well. Lars Rolack, Head of Logistics at Audi Formula Racing in Neuburg an der Donau, describes the unscheduled return shipment of a high-voltage battery during the race weekend in Miami: hazardous materials, special customs and transport regulations, a short analysis window in Neuburg – and shipment back out to the next race just a few days later. “The battery arrived at our facility in Neuburg on Monday morning and was shipped out again on Wednesday evening, heading for Montreal.” Even though the processes at Audi Supply Chain are generally more predictable, the combination of foresight and flexibility remains a crucial success factor – for instance, in the face of supply bottlenecks, natural disasters, or geopolitical disruptions, which have almost become the new normal these days. Rolack used to work in the logistics division at AUDI AG himself before moving to the Formula 1 project. “My background in planning and my experience helped me, but race logistics is a very ad-hoc business – we all had to adapt our mindset extremely quickly to the pace.” While Audi's supply chain division manages several thousand different suppliers across the globe using a multitude of processes – now also with the help of complex mathematical algorithms – organizational skills and personal networks are what count in the F1 project. “If something gets stuck here, my first instinct is to pick up the phone. Thanks to lean processes and short lines of communication within the team, problems can be solved very quickly,” says Rolack. Lundgaard Charges From Last to First To Win at Road America ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (Sunday, June 21, 2026) – Christian Lundgaard asked his Arrow McLaren team over the radio what everyone else also wondered after the Dane took the checkered flag Sunday for the XPEL Grand Prix at Road America Presented by AMR. “How did we do that?” Lundgaard asked incredulously to his pit box. SEE: Race Results Lundgaard used strategy, speed and a bit of good fortune to climb from last in the 25-car field after contact on Lap 1 to earn his second victory of the season in the No. 7 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet. The race ended under caution when Graham Rahal spun into the gravel trap outside Canada Corner after contact with Will Power while dueling for third place on a one-lap restart to the checkered flag. The victory was the third of Lundgaard's NTT INDYCAR SERIES career, joining his win in May on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course with Arrow McLaren and in 2023 on the streets of Toronto with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. “I knew we had a chance,” Lundgaard said of the probability of winning after the early contact. “I knew how this race panned out last year, and I knew it was all about just sticking in the race. I did that last year. I made a bunch of mistakes last year that spun ourselves around last year, and I just wanted to make up for that. “We've been on the struggle bus all weekend, so to turn this around, I have to thank the team for that.” David Malukas finished second in the No. 12 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet, his third runner-up finish of the season as he seeks his first career victory. Power held on to finish third in the No. 26 TWG AI Honda, matching his best finish of his first season with Andretti Global. Kyffin Simpson finished a season-best fourth in the No. 8 Sunoco Chip Ganassi Racing Honda, with points leader and four-time series champion Alex Palou rounding out the top five in the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda. Lundgaard, who started 12th, took the lead for the second and final time on Lap 52 of the 55-lap race when the No. 66 Meyer Shank Racing w/Curb Agajanian Honda of leader Marcus Armstrong slowed with a mechanical problem. Armstrong led by 2.787 seconds with five laps to go before mechanical fate cruelly robbed him of what may have been his first career victory. Armstrong's stricken machine finally lost power in Turn 5 on Lap 53, triggering a caution period and a one-lap race to the checkered flag. Lundgaard never was challenged by Malukas on the final one-lap trip around the 14-turn, 4.014-mile road course, with most of the attention focused on the fierce duel for third between series veterans Power and Rahal. Power, holding a straight-line speed advantage, attempted to move to the outside of Rahal at the end of the back straightaway, with both cars making contact and Rahal's No. 15 MSC Industrial Supply Honda spinning into the gravel, ending the race. That was the climax to a thrilling race filled with varying tire strategies and fierce competition for nearly every position. But nothing was more exciting or improbable than Lundgaard's charge to the front. On the opening lap, Lundgaard made contact with Scott Dixon in Turn 1, damaging the left front wing on Lundgaard's car and deflating one of his Firestone Firehawk tires. He pulled into the pits on Lap 2 for tires, fuel and a new front wing, with Arrow McLaren strategists devising new tactics on the fly. Lundgaard cycled to the lead for the first time on Lap 43 when Armstrong, Malukas and Rahal made their final pit stops from the top three positions. Danish driver Lundgaard led Rosenqvist by 11.720 seconds on Lap 45 when he made his final pit stop, with the Arrow McLaren team refilling his fuel and fastening four Firestone Firehawk alternate tires in a speedy 7.1 seconds. The big cushion before the stop allowed Lundgaard to exit his final stop second behind Armstrong and just ahead of Malukas, who had hotter, stickier rubber on his wheels and passed Lundgaard for second on Lap 46. Josef Newgarden made his final stop from the lead on Lap 49 in the No. 2 PPG Team Penske Chevrolet, handing the lead back to Armstrong, who was 3.671 seconds ahead of Malukas. Meanwhile, Lundgaard passed Malukas for second on Lap 49, with Armstrong nearly three seconds up the road. Then Armstrong's bid for his first win evaporated as his power dwindled, letting Lundgaard pass for the lead on Lap 52. “It was all smooth sailing,” a deflated Armstrong said. “I came out of Turn 6, and the engine just started sputtering like it was out of fuel. But clearly it wasn't. And then it just completely died. There was no indication there was nothing wrong.” Pole sitter Palou led 13 laps, but his chances for a fourth career Road America victory vanished when he was penalized for speeding in the pits on Lap 29. Palou fell to 22nd after his drive-through penalty on one of the longest pit roads in the series, but he was appointment viewing in his charge toward the front over the closing 25 laps. Palou leads second-place Malukas by 60 points and third-place Kyle Kirkwood, who finished 10th, by 61 points in the standings. Lundgaard is fourth, 77 points behind Palou. The next NTT INDYCAR SERIES event is The Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio Presented by the 2027 CR-V Hybrid on Sunday, July 5 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course near Columbus, Ohio.

¡Vamos con otra “lista negra”! ¿Por qué seguimos cayendo en la trampa? Seguro que a ti también te han saltado anuncios de dispositivos que se enchufan al mechero, imanes para los manguitos o pastillas "mágicas" que prometen reducir el consumo hasta un 25 por ciento. En el video de hoy, separamos la ficción de la realidad y denunciamos con nombres y apellidos los productos que considero un timo absoluto. La psicología del engaño El ser humano ama los atajos. Al igual que buscamos dietas milagro para no ir al gimnasio, queremos tecnología barata para no gastar gasolina. Estos productos no venden ingeniería, venden esperanza. Juegan con el "sesgo de confirmación": si gastas dinero en un imán, inconscientemente conduces de forma más suave para autoconvencerte de que funciona. El milagro no es el aparato, es tu pie derecho. El catálogo de los horrores: Analizamos los productos -Eco-OBD2 y similares: Los reyes de las tiendas online. Prometen reprogramar la ECU, pero al abrirlos solo encontramos un temporizador y luces LED. Es pura decoración que no interactúa con el cerebro del coche. -Imanes de combustible (Super Fuel Max): Prometen alinear moléculas de hidrocarburos. La realidad física es que la gasolina no es magnética y estos imanes no tienen efecto alguno en la combustión. Si funcionaran, todos los fabricantes los instalarían de serie para evitar multas de CO2. -Fuel Shark y NeoSocket: Dispositivos para el mechero que supuestamente estabilizan el sistema eléctrico. Contienen un condensador tan pequeño que es técnicamente incapaz de filtrar la carga del alternador. Un insulto a la inteligencia. -Pastillas de nanotecnología (MPG-Caps): Básicamente naftalina. Aunque pueden subir el octanaje de forma marginal, ensucian el sistema de inyección y pueden destruir la sonda lambda, provocando averías de cientos de euros. -El Turbonator: Una hélice metálica para la admisión. En lugar de ayudar, actúa como una restricción al paso del aire, reduciendo la eficiencia del motor y arriesgándose a una rotura catastrófica si una aspa se desprende. -Kits de HHO (Coche de Agua): Prometen quemar hidrógeno mediante electrólisis. Sin embargo, la Primera Ley de la Termodinámica es clara: gastas más energía generando ese hidrógeno a través del alternador de la que luego recuperas al quemarlo. ¿Hay algo que sí funcione? No todo es blanco o negro. Los limpiadores de inyectores de marcas reconocidas pueden ayudar si el motor tiene suciedad real o carbonilla, pero no hacen milagros en motores sanos. Por otro lado, los aditivos de teflón (como el antiguo Slick 50) son terreno pantanoso: aunque reducen la fricción en motores muy viejos, el teflón sólido puede obstruir conductos críticos en motores modernos y turbos. La teoría de la conspiración Muchos creen que las petroleras prohíben estos inventos. La lógica dice lo contrario: si alguien inventara un líquido de 20 euros que ahorrara un 10% real, los fabricantes de coches se pelearían por comprar la patente para cumplir las normativas de emisiones actuales. Consejos reales para ahorrar de verdad Si buscas eficiencia, olvida la magia y aplica la física: -Aerodinámica: Desmonta las barras de techo o portaequipajes que no uses. A 120 km/h, pueden subir el consumo casi un litro. -Neumáticos: Mantener la presión correcta reduce la resistencia a la rodadura y es totalmente gratis. -Mantenimiento: Un filtro de aire limpio es la mejor inversión de ahorro que puedes hacer. Anticipación: Mirar 200 metros por delante, dejar de acelerar ante un semáforo y evitar pisotones innecesarios ahorra más que cualquier coche híbrido mal conducido. El coche del día Volkswagen XL1 Para ahorrar de verdad, hace falta ingeniería extrema, no imanes. El XL1 demostró que se pueden homologar 0,9 l/100 km mediante fibra de carbono, una aerodinámica de récord (Cx 0,19) y tecnología puntera. Eso sí, costaba más de 111.000 euros. Ahorrar, a veces, sale muy caro. En conclusión: No busques soluciones de 20 euros para problemas que requieren tecnología de verdad. En el mundo del motor, los milagros no existen; existe la física. Y la física no se vende en AliExpress.

Host: Alex Cameron, Founder & CEO, Decarb Connect Guest: Bilal Hussain, Co-founder, Artio CarbonCarbon markets have a credibility problem, and most of the proposed fixes sit on the same side of the transaction. Bilal Hussain is building on the other side. As co-founder of Artio Carbon, he's spent years assessing carbon projects from the inside, and what he found was a market where capital was circling projects it couldn't trust, and projects couldn't scale because no one would stand behind them. Insurance, done properly, solves that.In this episode, Bilal walks through what underwriting a carbon project actually looks like, from biochar machines with 24-hour test histories to abandoned well projects where the leak has been visible for decades. He explains why execution and counterparty risk are the real questions insurers should be asking, not methodology quality, and what that distinction means for how climate finance moves from promise to delivery.Key TakeawaysWhy better due diligence still isn't enough - what can insurance due diligence uncover that analysts sometimes miss?  The one question that separates a financeable project from an unfundable one. It's not about credit quality or methodology - find out what insurers are actually asking, and why that question matters more than any ratings report. How to spot a project that will fail before it does. From unproven machines to developers promising 100% of expected output, Bilal walks through the specific red flags his team uses to walk away, and what good looks like by comparison. Why the projects landing on Artio's desk right now are the most investable they've ever been. If you've had a tough 12 months in the energy transition space, this perspective is worth hearing. What carbon tax regimes in Asia mean for your pipeline. CBAM is creating a downstream effect that most people haven't fully mapped yet - find out where the financing gap opens up and where insurance fits in. The deal structures where insurance changes the outcome.

We can't avoid catastrophic warming without also capturing and storing carbon dioxide — both the carbon we've already emitted and the carbon we continue to emit through industries that are tough to decarbonize, like steel, petrochemicals, and cement.Europe is a leader in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), with a goal of storing at least 50 million tons of captured CO2 a year by the end of this decade.So this episode, we team up with Germany-based reporter Sam Baker from the DW podcast “Living Planet.” We follow carbon dioxide from its source at a cement plant, all the way to its final resting place under the North Sea. And we look beyond the hype to see if Carbon Capture and Storage could be a real climate solution. Or just another way for the fossil fuel industry to keep on drilling.

Francia y España se preparan para una ola de calor, con temperaturas de más de 40 grados. Un fenómeno cada vez más frecuente en contexto de cambio climático causado por el exceso de CO2 en la atmósfera. Sin embargo, los periodistas del tiempo y del clima son blancos de acoso e insultos por el simple hecho de dar datos científicos. En mayo pasado, un episodio de calor excepcionalmente precoz azotó Francia. Este evento meteorológico extremo, cada vez más frecuente en Europa debido al calentamiento global, coincidió también con una oleada de mensajes climatoescépticos en las redes sociales. Cuando los presentadores del tiempo indicaron que las temperaturas estaban 15 grados por encima de lo normal, recibieron amenazas, insultos y fueron acusados de ser alarmistas. En redes sociales circularon numerosos mensajes agresivos contra los periodistas presentadores del tiempo, de parte de internautas molestos por el color rojo de los mapas de temperatura. “Los periodistas especializados en meteorología y clima de BFMTV son blanco de una oleada de insultos y amenazas en las redes sociales, procedentes de usuarios escépticos sobre el cambio climático”, declaró la SDJ, organización de defensa de la ética periodística, del canal privado BFM. La SDJ aclaró entonces que “la elección del color de los mapas se realiza en función de las medias estacionales, establecidas por Météo France y basadas en hechos científicos que gozan de consenso”. Según los modelos científicos sobre el cambio climático, las olas de calor solo ocurrían una vez cada 5 años en promedio. Pero desde el año 2000, la frecuencia aumentó y el país enfrenta al menos una ola de calor por año, mientras que la frecuencia de estos eventos se duplicará de aquí a 30 años. Desde el canal público France2, Sébastien Thomas presenta un noticiero que mezcla información meteorológica y datos climáticos. Un formato estrenado en 2023 para reforzar la cobertura del cambio climático en el canal. El periodista observa también que informar sobre el cambio climático suscita comentarios escépticos y agresivos de forma permanente en las redes sociales. "Cuando hago entrevistas sobre temas de clima, ponemos extractos en las redes sociales. En X, el 97% de los comentarios son mensajes de odio, agresivos, o insultos que demuestran un rechazo absoluto a la ciencia", dijo Thomas a RFI. El periodista precisa que muchos de estos comentarios provienen de bots “programados desde potencias extranjeras”. Acoso contra la agencia meteorológica española En el vecino país, España, el profesor de comunicación y especialista en redes sociales Sergio Arce, de la Universidad Internacional de la Rioja, observó el mismo fenómeno. En 2022 y 2023 estudió cientos de miles de mensajes climatoescépticos contra científicos de la Agencia Estatal de Meteorología de España, la AEMET. Unos mensajes que “van por un lado en negar el cambio climático” o que defienden tesis conspiracionistas. “Se habla, por ejemplo de los chemstrails, el humo de los aviones que cambiaría el clima”. Según Arce, lo que buscan estos mensajes de odio es desestabilizar mediante mecanismos de desestabilización. En realidad, los mensajes no se dirigen a los meteorólogos en particular, sino “lo que representan: gente confiable. Y se destruye la confianza en las instituciones, la gente será más susceptible a cualquier otra idea.”. Estas estrategias online “suelen estar ligadas a opiniones de extrema derecha y de otras corrientes también, incluso con falsa bandera”, pero que muchas veces provienen de países extranjeros a través de granjas de trolls, de bots informáticos y ahora potenciados por herramientas de inteligencia artificial. “Durante la pandemia de Covid-19, encontramos medio millón de mensajes diarios en español, desde teorías de la conspiración hasta temas de meteorología”, recuerda el académico. Si bien en Europa muchos mensajes climatoescépticos proviene de campañas orquestadas desde el extranjero para desestabilizar la opinión pública, en Estados Unidos la negación del cambio climático o de su origen humano proviene de la derecha radical, observa Chris Gloninger, cuyo caso es aún más extremo. "Recibí muchos mensajes que me acusaban de politizar los pronósticos del tiempo, decían que tenía una agenda progresista. Todo cambió cuando recibí amenazas de muerte de un individuo que me escribía por correo cada dos días”, contó Gloninger a RFI. Estas amenazas marcaron el final de la carrera de este meteorólogo quien presentaba las noticias del tiempo y del clima en un canal de Iowa. El autor de las amenazas fue procesado y condenado a una multa, pero la dirección del canal pidió a Gloninger reducir su cobertura de los temas climáticos. “La derecha politizó la ciencia”, lamenta el científico, en entrevista con RFI. En 2023, el experiodista decidió finalmente renunciar a su puesto y trabaja ahora como consultor en temas ambientales para alcaldías. Con información de Lucile Gimberg.

William Van Wijngaarden explains the greenhouse effect as higher, colder radiating layers caused by more greenhouse gases, noting roles of CO2, water vapor, ozone, methane, and N2O, and emphasizing cloud uncertainties. He cites rising CO2 (320 ppm in 1960 to ~430), N2O and methane increases, but highlights non-monotonic temperature history including a 2000–2016 “hiatus,” and claims climate models overpredict warming by about threefold. He argues data do not show worsening trends in Arctic ice (recently flat), hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, or precipitation, and glacier retreat began after the Little Ice Age. He says ocean pH would drop from 8.18 to ~7.93 with doubled CO2, corals grow fastest in warm water, eliminating cattle would cool ~0.05°C, and fertilizer cuts risk food shortages. He calls for more observations (clouds, Argo oceans) and concludes warming is modest (~1°C ±1°C) and net-zero policies lack evidence.00:00 Meet The Guest03:19 Key Greenhouse Gases05:44 Temperature Record Mysteries07:20 Models Versus Reality08:39 Infrared Spectrum Explained10:53 Satellites Confirm Physics11:58 Clouds And Uncertainty15:10 Arctic Ice Reality Check16:28 Glaciers Wildfires Hurricanes20:12 Natural Variability Lesson21:52 Ocean Acidification Facts23:52 Corals And Warm Water24:48 Methane And Livestock Myth27:06 Fertilizer And Food Tradeoffs28:51 CO2 Greening Benefits30:56 Big Picture Conclusions33:04 New Research Water Vapor34:04 Observations Over Modeling36:05 Measuring Oceans And Ice39:21 Looking Ahead Calmly41:16 Final Thanks And WrapWilliam's website: https://wvanwijngaarden.info.yorku.ca/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Right now, roughly 40% of global emissions come from the built environment. Most of those emissions are hidden deep within the materials themselves, in the concrete, steel, and plastics that are mined or extracted from underground at enormous energy costs. What if that model could be reversed entirely?   In this episode of Business For Good, Paul Shapiro sits down with Allison Dring, CEO of Made of Air, to explore how waste biomass can be converted into carbon-storing building materials through a process called pyrolysis. Instead of mining resources from underground, the company uses sawdust and wood waste that would otherwise go to landfill, bakes it in a high-temperature, low-oxygen oven, and produces biochar, a stable form of elemental carbon that locks atmospheric CO2 away for roughly a thousand years.   The conversation covers why the built environment is such a massive source of emissions, how biochar-based cladding panels can replace steel, cement fiber board, and fossil-based plastics at competitive prices, and why the real bottleneck is not the technology but industry adoption.   Things You Will Learn: Why roughly 40% of global emissions come from the built environment, with about half of that embedded in the materials themselves. How pyrolysis converts waste biomass into biochar that locks carbon out of the atmosphere for approximately a thousand years. Why no building on earth today has achieved a fully carbon-negative life cycle, and what it would take to change that. How Made of Air's cladding panels replace steel, cement fiber board, and fossil-based plastics with carbon-negative alternatives. Why the company is targeting price parity with conventional building materials by the end of 2027 without any green premium.   Tools & Frameworks Covered: Biochar Through Pyrolysis: A process of baking waste biomass in a high-temperature, low-oxygen oven that converts stored CO₂ into stable elemental carbon, creating a material that does not re-release carbon for roughly a thousand years. Above-Ground vs. Below-Ground Resources: A framework for rethinking where building materials come from, shifting from mined and fossil-extracted resources to biomass waste streams that already exist in agriculture and forestry. Embodied Carbon Compliance: A long-term planning approach where real estate developers evaluate building materials based on 30 to 50 year regulatory trajectories rather than current requirements alone.   #BusinessForGood #FutureOfFood #AlternativeProtein #SustainableBusiness

What does cracking open green-shiny rocks in a German preschool have to do with feeding eight billion people without oil and gas? In this episode, Jesse sits down with Oliver "Oli" Jagoutz, professor at MIT and director of the Earth Resources Laboratory (ERL), for a wide-ranging conversation that travels from the Himalayas to the wastewater treatment plant — and makes the case that geology might be one of the most societally relevant sciences of the coming decades.Oli traces his winding path into the field: the son of a cosmochemist who dragged him along on mantle-sampling campaigns, a self-described "failed" almost-med-student who spent years climbing, traveling, and working as a nurse before discovering that he could inhale geology once he finally found it. His advice to late bloomers — it's not your age that matters, it's that you've figured out what you actually want.From there the conversation digs into the Kohistan arc, the spectacular tilted-on-its-side cross-section of ancient island-arc crust now exposed in the Himalayas, and what it tells us about how continental crust forms (magmatic differentiation, water, and density sorting). Oli explains why he came to believe the textbook story of the India–Asia collision was wrong — arguing the real collision happened closer to 40 million years ago, not 50 — and why that timing matters for understanding how mountain-building and tropical weathering of calcium- and magnesium-rich rocks may have reshaped global climate.That climate thread becomes the pivot point of the episode. Oli describes walking away from the decades-old "origin of continental crust" question to chase problems with real-world stakes, and lays out the four areas his lab now tackles: carbon sequestration, critical minerals, geothermal energy, and geological hydrogen. Along the way he challenges the standard weathering-CO2 story (betting instead on the organic side — clays protecting buried organic matter), and walks through a genuinely clever carbon-sequestration scheme that uses sulfur-reducing bacteria and industrial waste gypsum to lock up carbon while making money by recovering elemental sulfur — a chemical the world will desperately need for fertilizer in a post-oil economy.The episode closes on practical wisdom for students: master the fundamentals, stay broad, actually go to the talks (not just the beer), use tenure to fund "Neverland science," and recognize that an outsider's perspective — connecting dots others haven't — is often where the best ideas come from. Oli also explains how AI-driven, probabilistic "hygrometry" of whole-rock data is opening a new path for mineral prospectivity, and why he thinks metamorphic petrology — the chemistry of hot fluids reacting with rock underground — is the science of the future for mining, energy, and carbon storage alike.In this episodeHow a cosmochemist dad and a broken finger started a career in geologyWhy coming to the field "late" can be an advantageThe Kohistan arc and the puzzle of how continental crust is madeRe-dating the India–Asia collision — and why ~40 Ma changes the climate storyWeathering, CO2 drawdown, and the case for the organic carbon pathwayTurning sewage, gypsum, and bacteria into profitable carbon sequestrationSulfur, fertilizer, and the hidden product tree of oil and gasCritical minerals, geothermal, and geological hydrogen at MIT's ERLAI + whole-rock geochemistry for finding copper depositsWhy metamorphic petrology is the way of the futureAdvice for students who want to use geology to solve big problemsOli's "best day as a geologist"About the guestOliver Jagoutz is a professor at MIT and director of the Earth Resources Laboratory. His work spans igneous and metamorphic petrology, the tectonic evolution of the Himalayas, links between mountain-building and climate, and applied geoscience for energy, critical minerals, and carbon sequestration.Memorable quotes"Don't get discouraged when the community thinks you are wrong.

"It's about as interesting as watching grass grow." Ever heard that phrase? It's the somewhat sarcastic comment one might make when rendering something as boring. But ask any homeowner who desires the deeply verdant, non-dandelioned yard, and they'll tell you - it takes work! The greenness in all plants comes from special cells called chloroplasts, which enable photosynthesis, the process of converting sunlight and CO2 into glucose and oxygen. Growing grass is not boring. It - and all living plants - provide for us what we absolutely need. Grass, grows, by the way, at a place called "the crown" - the layer of cells that sit just at the soil line. And it's THE Crown, the soveriegnty of Jesus Christ, that all life and order exists: "For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen." Rom. 11:36We're talking about the throne in this week's episode of Church for Normies ... not grass. Let us know what you think! ▶️ Nate's Message on YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/ytp4e3df

Jim Vander Giessen with Prochiller PROGreen and Nick Gislason from Hanabi Lager join us on Brew Ha Ha with Herlinda Heras and Daedalus Howell. Nick has been on the show before, the last time was this episode last January. Jim Vander Giessen is a co-founder and CEO of Prochiller. He is in California for the ProGreen50 Showcase in Napa. Jim Weatherwax from ProChiller is also in the studio today.  ProChiller manufactures a wide range of refrigerant systems. They have a new product line called PROGreen Solutions which uses refrigerants that have a negligible global warming potential. Herlinda discovered this company at the Craft Brewers Conference in Philadelphia. ProChiller was showing their PROGreen systems at the conference. Herlinda was there with a friend who introduced her to them. They mentioned that they were coming to California soon to present their products in Napa and they have just arrived. ProChiller and Hanabi Lager Nick Gislason is the owner of Hanabi Lager. He is also a professional winemaker and he knows the ProChiller company from using their systems in the winery. Refrigeration is important to both industries. Nick is doing a six-month experiment with a ProChiller system.•-• •-• -••• -•-•Visit Russian River Brewing Co. in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location.

In both cases, there is fermentation which produces heat. If you let the fermentation run away, it ruins the product. You have to pull the heat out and move it from the tank to a radiator outside. The ProChiller PROGreen system is a CO2 based chiller that does not use traditional chemical refrigerants. Those chemicals have a high global warming potential if they are ever accidentally released. But the CO2 has a negligible index, about 1, compared too 500 or more. Nick explains his reasons for chosing to work with this new system. CO2 chillers actually produce boiling water as a “waste product” which is very useful around the brewery. ProChiller will be demonstrating the PROGreen chiller on Thursday, June 11, at Hanabi Lager in Napa. Soon they will hold other demos in the Sonoma County area.

Condensation in an anesthesia circuit looks harmless until it starts skewing flow sensor readings or creating the kind of warm, wet environment where microbes can thrive. We pick up the story after the investigation into moisture and mold concerns in GE operating room ventilators, then move straight into the questions clinicians asked most: which filters matter, how low-flow anesthesia changes the moisture equation, and what “moisture mitigation” actually means at the bedside.We walk through APSF guidance on filtration, including why a high-quality filter between the expiratory limb and the anesthesia machine is a key defense for keeping respiratory pathogens out of the workstation. We also talk about what HME filters do well for airway humidity and reducing moisture entering the machine, where their limits are (especially moisture generated by CO2 absorption), and why sidestream gas sampling lines deserve more attention in infection prevention and anesthesia machine protection.Then we share GE Healthcare's response, including what's universal across modern anesthesia breathing systems, what features support moisture management, and when optional condensers may help depending on clinical usage patterns.If this topic affects your OR workflow, subscribe, share the episode with a colleague, and leave a review so more anesthesia professionals can find these moisture management and patient safety insights.For show notes & transcript, visit our episode page at apsf.org: https://www.apsf.org/podcast/310-moisture-matters-in-anesthesia-circuits/© 2026, The Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation

Dr. Cameron Chesnut is back for Part 2, and we're getting into everything. What we actually did to my face, what the recovery has really looked like, and the honest timeline for results. I came to Dr. Chesnut with acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and some volume loss. We break down the custom laser cocktail (four lasers total) paired with stem cell-rich fat transfer, why he tailors every treatment differently, and how to shop for a laser provider without getting sold whatever device they happen to own. We also get real about filler and Sculptra, including what filler actually looks like when Dr. Chesnut removes it surgically and why he takes a more cautious approach to biostimulators. Plus, the full recovery protocol I followed: hyperbaric oxygen, microplastic-free IV nutrition, red light, PEMF, and more. If you've been curious about CO2 laser, fat transfer, or whether going the long-play route is worth it, this one answers it honestly. _____ Follow Dr. Chesnut here Follow Clinic5c here Learn more about Dr. Chesnut's practice at clinic5c.com Leave Me a Message -⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's Instagram⁠ click here!⁠ For Pursuit of Wellness Podcast's Instagram⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's Newsletter⁠ click here!⁠ For Mari's TikTok⁠ click here!

Newfoundland Time, 43-Year-Old Hill Racks, and CO2 Mini Packs Gone Wild | Advanced Refrigeration PodcastBrett and Kevin open the Advanced Refrigeration Podcast with travel chaos and stories from Brett's Newfoundland training trip, including sightseeing, getting “screeched in,” and learning about the 2 and a half-hour time zone. Kevin contrasts with a rough week changing out 43-year-old Hill racks for new Hussmann racks, dealing with tight valve layouts, vacuum work, reused refrigerant, and major electrical/control complications in an old store with fuse buckets. They explain what Atron surge receivers are, why they fail, and common retrofit approaches. The conversation shifts to small Walmart CO2 “baby” racks and common field issues: critical charging challenges with heavy tanks, relief valves popping due to 650-psi-rated filter driers, problematic relief piping requirements, and the need for better high-pressure serviceable solutions. They close by teasing a deeper future episode on these single CO2 units and their controllers.

Le charbon est l'énergie qui contribue le plus au réchauffement de la planète. Pour respecter l'accord de Paris de 2015 sur le climat, les pays de l'Union européenne devraient l'abandonner avant 2030. Beaucoup s'y sont engagés. Mais après l'invasion à grande échelle de l'Ukraine par la Russie en 2022, et la hausse des prix de l'énergie, certains ont repoussé l'échéance ou revu leur calendrier. La Roumanie en fait partie. Le pays touche des aides de Bruxelles pour sortir du charbon, mais a obtenu en octobre 2025 un délai supplémentaire de la part de la Commission européenne, pour reporter la fermeture de plusieurs de ses mines et centrales, malgré les conséquences pour l'environnement. Un Grand reportage de Justine Fontaine, avec Arturo Cimini. Réalisation : Jérémie Boucher.   La plus grande mine de lignite à ciel ouvert de Roumanie, la mine Rosia, ressemble à un immense cratère. Située en Olténie, dans le sud-ouest du pays, on y descend en 4x4, jusqu'au pied d'une falaise noire et grise, creusée par une gigantesque excavatrice. Aussi haute qu'un immeuble de huit étages, elle avale ce type de charbon très polluant grâce à une grande roue avant de le recracher, en petits morceaux brun foncé, sur un tapis roulant qui file jusqu'en haut de la mine, en plein vent. « Et là c'est un dépôt de charbon, explique Felix Tirca, coordinateur du site, où travaillent près de 1 000 personnes. Le lignite est entreposé ici avant d'être envoyé vers la centrale thermique » voisine, précise-t-il, casque de chantier sur la tête, chaussures de sécurité et bleu de travail. On aperçoit la fumée blanche de sa cheminée depuis le site d'extraction du lignite. Cette centrale, comme la mine, appartient à une entreprise publique, le Complexe énergétique d'Olténie (CE Oltenia). On retrouve dans son bureau, à l'abri de la poussière de charbon soulevée par le vent, le directeur de la mine, Nicolae Mirea. Habillé, comme ses collègues, d'un bleu de travail siglé du logo de l'entreprise, son casque est posé à côté de lui. Il reste en contact avec ses équipes via un talkie walkie. «D'après les dernières informations qu'on a, la fermeture est prévue pour 2029. Mais on espère rester ouverts plus longtemps», dit-il. « L'avenir n'est pas très prometteur pour nous, nous sommes conscients qu'on va devoir fermer... mais on souhaite qu'au moins les jeunes puissent en vivre le plus longtemps possible », avance-t-il.  Craintes pour l'emploi À côté de lui, son collègue, Ionel Marius Gruescu, tient à nous montrer une image sur son téléphone : « Voilà ma femme et mes enfants. Moi et mes collègues sommes de la même génération. Nos enfants sont encore petits, donc nous espérons tous que cette mine et les centrales ne fermeront pas », glisse-t-il. À bientôt 50 ans, il ne s'imagine pas se reconvertir et commencer un autre travail, dans une région où l'économie repose en grande partie sur le lignite.  Ici, chaque famille compte un ou plusieurs  mineurs. « Mon père et ma mère travaillaient dans une centrale à charbon », témoigne Boby Monteanu, qui dirige le syndicat des mineurs Cartel Alfa dans le comté de Gorj, en Olténie. Lui a commencé comme électricien dans une mine de la région, à l'âge de 18. « Ma sœur, mes oncles... Nous avons tous travaillé dans les mines. Mais je suis le seul à être devenu dirigeant syndical. » « À l'heure actuelle, moins de 15 000 personnes travaillent encore dans l'industrie minière en Roumanie, contre 300 000 en 1997, quand a commencé la restructuration de l'industrie minière, pointe un autre syndicaliste, Dumitru Pirvulescu, président de la fédération roumaine des mines et de l'énergie. Depuis, on assiste à un exode des jeunes vers d'autres régions ou d'autres pays. Et c'est un gros problème dans ce comté. »  « La Roumanie ne peut se passer du charbon » En 2021, la Roumanie s'est engagée auprès de l'Union européenne à sortir du charbon d'ici à 2032. Mais en octobre 2025, le gouvernement roumain a demandé et obtenu un délai supplémentaire de la part de Bruxelles, pour retarder la fermeture de plusieurs mines et centrales de l'Olténie, la région où on se trouve. « Le gouvernement roumain a eu raison de reporter la fermeture des centrales à charbon. Car le plan de sortie de charbon était basé sur une autre Europe : quand il a été approuvé, la guerre en Ukraine a commencé immédiatement après, ce qui a bouleversé l'Europe », salue le syndicaliste. Pour les partisans du charbon, la guerre au Moyen-Orient est un argument supplémentaire pour prolonger la durée de vie des centrales et, avec ça, maintenir les emplois existants. Ils estiment que le charbon est utile pour la stabilité du réseau électrique et qu'il n'est pas justifié que la Roumanie s'en passe avant d'autres pays européens, comme l'Allemagne ou la Bulgarie. « ​​​​​​​Nous assurons la sécurité énergétique nationale. La Roumanie ne peut se passer du charbon », insiste Mircea Gherendi. Mineur depuis 31 ans, il travaille sur une excavatrice. « ​​​​​​​L'Union européenne a-t-elle compris que la Roumanie avait besoin du charbon ? Non. Que la Roumanie se convertisse au gaz n'augure rien de bon. Car le gaz est très cher », s'inquiète-t-il, face aux projets de transformer certaines centrales à charbon en centrales à gaz, dont l'énergie devrait alors être importée.  Malgré le délai supplémentaire négocié avec l'Union européenne, il y a quelques semaines à peine, les contrats de près de 1 800 personnes n'ont pas été renouvelés par l'entreprise publique dans l'une des centrales à charbon de la région.   Une vallée ponctuée de centrales Juste à côté de la mine, la centrale de Rovinari est l'une de celles qui ponctue le paysage de la vallée. Le long de la route, on dirait de gigantesques paquebots gris et rouillés, flanqués d'imposantes tours de refroidissement. On suit Marius Bizga vers la salle des machines. Il dirige cette centrale vieille de plus d'un demi-siècle. « ​​​​​​​La centrale avait six unités au départ, mais il n'y en a plus que trois aujourd'hui, de 330 mégawatts chacune. Et une seule est en marche en ce moment », en cette période de printemps, où les besoins en chauffage et en climatisation sont faibles, expose-t-il. « Là, c'est la chaudière, vous pouvez voir la combustion à travers ces fenêtres. Le charbon arrive de chaque côté, ici, puis est broyé très fin avant d'être brûlé », explique le directeur, depuis le cœur de l'usine, une cathédrale de métal traversée par de gigantesques tuyaux d'où s'échappent quelques gouttes d'eau des circuits de refroidissement. Marius Bizga nous emmène ensuite dans la salle de contrôle. On peut y observer en temps réel la production d'électricité de la centrale. Aujourd'hui, le charbon représente encore un peu moins de 15% de l'électricité produite dans le pays. L'entreprise met en avant les investissements réalisés ces dernières années, à hauteurs de plusieurs centaines de millions d'euros pour réduire les émissions de gaz toxiques de ses centrales. « La première unité a été mise en service en 1972. À partir de 2004, toutes les unités ont été modernisées, assure le directeur. Nous avons ainsi investi pour réduire les émissions de dioxyde de soufre et d'oxyde d'azote. Nous respectons toutes les exigences en matière de protection de l'environnement », insiste-t-il. Deux fois plus de CO2 que le gaz Au-dessus de l'usine, la fumée blanche a remplacé la fumée noire ou grise du passé. Mais, même si les émissions de gaz toxiques ont été réduites, le charbon reste la source d'électricité la plus polluante : près de deux fois plus de CO2 que le gaz naturel, une autre énergie fossile. La police de l'environnement dans le comté de Gorj a aussi infligé plusieurs amendes ces dernières années à des centrales de l'entreprise publique CE Oltenia, notammment pour avoir dépassé les seuils de pollution de l'air. Malgré les conséquences pour l'environnement et pour la santé, de nombreux habitants continuent de soutenir l'industrie du charbon, au nom de l'emploi local ou encore de l'indépendance énergétique du pays. « S'ils veulent fermer les mines et les centrales, ce n'est pas parce que ça pollue, c'est pour nous ruiner économiquement », croit savoir Daniel, 52 ans, cheminot rencontré sur une place de Targu Jiu, chef lieu du comté. « Ils ne veulent plus qu'on soit indépendants de l'Union européenne sur le plan énergétique. [...] Si les centrales à charbon et les mines ferment, ça augmentera automatiquement le chômage alors qu'on est déjà en train de s'appauvrir. Si on ne produit plus rien, cette région, ce sera une zone morte. Voilà les conséquences de la fermeture des mines et des centrales », s'alarme-t-il. Cet habitant assure qu'il n'a jamais été préoccupé par les conséquences sanitaires de l'exploitation du charbon.   Retards Si les habitants ne voient pas d'alternatives au charbon, c'est aussi parce que les projets qui devaient remplacer le lignite n'ont pas été lancés à temps, voire pas du tout. À Bucarest, la capitale roumanie, nous avons rendez-vous avec l'ONG  environnementale Bankwatch. « ​​​​​​​Le gouvernement de Roumanie s'est engagé en 2021, à sortir du charbon en 2032, rappelle Eliza Barnea, qui gère la campagne pour une transition juste chez Bankwatch Roumanie. Pour ça, le pays a reçu presque 2 milliards d'euros » de la part de l'Union européenne, pour convertir en centrales à gaz certaines centrales à charbon et construire des parcs photovoltaïques. Or, les projets de centrales à gaz n'ont pas encore dépassé le stade de l'appel d'offres et la construction des parcs photovoltaïques n'a pas encore commencé. Selon elle, la responsabilité de ces retards revient surtout à l'État roumain. La Commission européenne a néanmoins été trop « ​​​​​​​permissive » avec Bucarest, estime-t-elle.    Des émissions de CO2 non déclarées ? Il y a quelques mois, le complexe énergétique Oltenia a aussi été épinglé dans une enquête journalistique publiée par Follow The Money. L'entreprise est soupçonnée d'avoir sous-estimé ses émissions de CO2. Grâce à cela, elle aurait économisé près de 250 millions d'euros sur ses quotas européens d'émissions de dioxyde de carbone. Jointe par téléphone, Anna-Kaisa Itkonen, porte-parole de la Commission européenne sur les questions d'énergie, confirme qu'une enquête a été ouverte à Bruxelles, notamment sur ce point, mais n'est « pas en mesure d'en dire plus tant que l'enquête est en cours ». Elle défend aussi la décision d'accepter de reporter la fermeture de certaines centrales à charbon, un secteur qui est pourtant le principal émetteur de CO2 du pays. « Je ne dirais pas que nous payons la Roumanie pour qu'elle conserve ses centrales électriques à charbon », se défend-elle. « Nous continuons à encourager l'élimination du charbon et à accélérer le déploiement des énergies renouvelables. La Roumanie a des prix de l'électricité parmi les plus élevés d'Europe à l'heure actuelle, tout en étant fortement dépendante des combustibles fossiles. Or, on constate que les États membres qui ont la plus grande part d'énergies renouvelables ont également tendance à avoir les prix de l'électricité les plus bas. C'est pourquoi nous encourageons la Roumanie à prendre des mesures en faveur de la décarbonation et de l'électrification, car cela se traduit en fin de compte par des prix plus bas pour les consommateurs », avance la porte-parole.    Panneaux solaires Anna-Kaisa Itkonen estime que la Roumanie a enregistré des avancées importantes pour réduire ses émissions de CO2 et développer les énergies renouvelables. Le pays est, en effet, l'un des États membres qui a le plus diminué ses émissions de dioxyde de carbone depuis les années 90. Eliza Barnea, de l'ONG bankwatch, voit elle aussi des raisons d'espérer, comme le développement des panneaux solaires chez les particuliers, avec le soutien de l'État. Ainsi, « ​​​​​​​ces dernières années, le nombre d'autoconsommateurs d'électricité a beaucoup augmenté. Face à la hausse des prix causée par les conflits internationaux, les gens sont attirés par la perspective d'être plus indépendants du point de vue énergétique, de ne pas être exposés à la volatilité des prix », analyse-t-elle. L'ONG se réjouit aussi du développement de projets d'énergies renouvelables par de petites municipalités d'Olténie, comme Turceni, dont la municipalité « vient de déposer des demandes de géothermie, l'une des sources de chaleur les moins chères et plus propres. On espère que, petit à petit, ces initiatives locales vont contribuer à faire avancer la transition », conclut-elle. Ce reportage a bénéficié d'un financement de l'Union européenne.

Step into Episode 215 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Scott and Josh, co-founders of Craft Culture Draft Solutions, to pull back the curtain on one of the most overlooked profit leaks in the bar and restaurant business — your draft beer system. From foamy pours and dirty lines to bad CO2 pressure and undertrained bartenders, these two Arizona-based draft pros break down exactly why money is literally going down your drain, and what you can do about it right now.Founded on April 1st, 2022, Craft Culture was born out of a shared passion for doing this work the right way — with 25+ years of industry experience behind Scott and 10 years of hands-on install and service work behind Josh. Together they bring a rare mix of technical expertise, hospitality roots, and genuine service-first mentality to a niche most bar owners barely think about. The conversation covers the science of temperature and CO2, the danger of a walk-in cooler flooded with gas (yes, it nearly happened to Scott), keg yields that should hit 95% but often drop to 50%, and what a red-yellow-green system health report can do for your beverage program. Delo also gets the scoop on their current big push: free draft system health checks for bars and restaurants across Arizona — and why they're giving it away.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:17) Delo's Intro, Batching Episodes & Why In-Person Always Wins(2:17 - 6:12) Scott's Origin Story: Hensley, Micromatic, Austin, and Starting Craft Culture(6:12 - 8:00) Josh's Background: Navy, Trucking, Logistics & Becoming a Draft Nerd(8:00 - 12:00) The Real Cost of Foam: Temperature, CO2, and Keg Yield Math(12:00 - 14:20) Line Cleaning, Off Flavors, and Bartender Training That Saves Profit(14:20 - 18:05) The YouTube Channel, Free Phone Calls, and Owning Your Beverage Program(18:05 - 21:30) Wine, Cocktails & Coffee on Tap: Why 304 Stainless Steel Matters(21:30 - 26:15) How to Find Craft Culture: The Guild, Distributors, Breweries & Word of Mouth(26:15 - 32:00) Free Draft System Health Checks: What's Included and Why It Matters(32:00 - 36:40) Non-Negotiables, Family Time, Sleep, and Running a Business with Heart(36:40 - 43:00) Rapid Fire: Cows, 80s vs. 90s, Aliens, Beans, and Build the Bar Right(43:00 - 45:15) Best Local Installs, Formation Brewing, Red House Cask System & Kansas City Airport

Professor Lisa Wilson is CEO and co-founder of nGRND, a gold protocol that turns verified but unmined "in-ground" gold into a fully backed, reward-bearing digital asset rather than digging it up. An Australian who holds a South African professorship and lives in France, Wilson is a genuine mining insider — she has written operational and hazard-standards systems for the likes of Rio Tinto and BHP — with a parallel career in blockchain, where she helped list the world's first actively managed certificates for investment-grade carbon assets. Why you should listen Wilson's pitch is a contrarian one: the best place to keep gold may be exactly where it already is. Billions of ounces of verified gold sit classified as resources that can't economically advance to production, with mine timelines now stretching toward two decades once permitting, First Nations consultation and environmental compliance are factored in. Gold, she argues, is unusual among metals — it has almost no industrial use, so above-ground stock is mostly worn or stored, which means an ounce in the ground is functionally the same store of value as an ounce in a vault. nGRND acquires long-term rights (30 to 100 years) to independently verified deposits, leaves the metal "in situ," and monetizes it without the environmental decimation of extraction. The mechanics are concrete: for every 35,000 tokens in circulation, at least one ounce of preserved gold is held in the protocol treasury, and every ounce left undisturbed avoids an estimated 792kg of CO2. The more interesting half of the model is what happens on the surface. Because the land above each deposit stays untouched, nGRND layers a second income stream on top of gold's own appreciation — what Wilson calls alternative land-use monetization. That can mean soil-carbon and avoided-mining carbon credits, ecotourism, data cables routed across otherwise off-limits ground, or wind and solar microgrids, with a single site capable of generating millions a year across a multi-decade rights agreement. Brownfield sites are their own opportunity: in Australia a decommissioned site can carry a reclamation bond north of $20 million, and nGRND positions itself as the party that cleans up tailings and restores biodiversity while still capturing the value sleeping below. The token itself is tokenized through a VARA-regulated issuer in Dubai and backed by resources verified to NI 43-101 standards — a structure aimed squarely at the institutional real-world-asset crowd having its moment right now. For all the heavy machinery of the model, nGRND's on-ramp is deliberately playful: its sponsored mobile games Dig It and Gold Fest have pulled in more than 855,000 players across 200-plus countries and accrued roughly $6 million in rewards ahead of the token launch, with TON Foundation backing and a Base expansion planned. Wilson is adamant the ecosystem isn't just for stakers and gamers — she describes participation streams spanning impact, learning and governance, including immersive digital twins of actual project sites. In the closing hot-take round she leans to the Bitcoin side of the spectrum as a self-described early mover, makes the case that crypto literacy should be embedded education for everyone, and sketches a ten-year future in which wealth migrates away from a USD-hedged system toward assets people actually control — before signing off with a charmingly vintage sci-fi pick in the British fantasy series Catweazle.
