Ritter – Criminal Defense Attorney, Kitay Law Offices Reentry after incarceration is a process that affects all of us, whether we realize it or not. Did you know that 65% of people released from prison end up reoffending? Or that defendants who can't afford bail often spend 90 to 180 days behind bars before their case is even resolved? These barriers make successful reintegration nearly impossible, but there are solutions—like expanding mental health and drug courts, addressing pre-trial detention challenges, and improving job opportunities for returning citizens. In this episode of Lehigh Valley with Love, we dive deep into the realities of reentry with experts and those who have lived through the process. Our guests share their firsthand experiences and insights on what works, what doesn't, and what needs to change. Thank you to Dr. Joseph Roy for his invaluable help producing this episode!

WDIY Lehigh Valley Health Network Wind Creek Event Center Michael Bernadyn of RE/MAX Real Estate Molly’s Irish Grille & Sports Pub Banko Beverage Company Blog: The Realities of Reentry – A Recap of the Podcast Understanding Reentry Reentry is the process by which formerly incarcerated individuals reintegrate into society after serving their time. While release from prison might seem like the end of a sentence, for many, it marks the beginning of another battle—finding employment, securing housing, and avoiding recidivism. Jose Rivera, Community Engagement Coordinator at United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley, explains how reentry was once a non-existent term. Instead, individuals were labeled “ex-cons” or “felons,” limiting their opportunities. While the language has evolved, the systemic barriers remain overwhelming for many returning citizens. The Challenges of Reentry Dr. Michael Pittaro, Director of Corrections for Northampton County, highlights the recidivism rate of nearly 65% in the U.S., emphasizing that many individuals return to the same communities where they faced prior struggles. Without intervention, they encounter the same environments, influences, and hardships that led to their incarceration. Attorney David Ritter sheds light on pre-trial detention and bail reform, explaining that individuals can spend 90 to 180 days in jail before their trial simply because they cannot afford bail. This extended detention causes job loss, housing instability, and financial hardship, making reintegration even more difficult after release. Another major obstacle is the role of parole and probation officers. Some officers serve as mentors, helping individuals access resources, while others take a more punitive approach, increasing the likelihood of reoffending. Rivera stresses that a supportive parole officer can make all the difference in successful reentry. Employment and Housing: Critical Factors in Reentry Success Securing employment after incarceration is a major challenge. Dr. Pittaro explains how background checks and job applications with felony-related questions create barriers, despite Pennsylvania's “Ban the Box” initiative. While this law prevents employers from immediately disqualifying applicants based on criminal history, employers still have access to background checks and often reject qualified applicants. Housing is another pressing issue. Many landlords deny applications from formerly incarcerated individuals, making it difficult to secure stable living conditions. Even those who find employment struggle with rising housing costs and parole restrictions that limit where they can live. David Ritter emphasizes that parole conditions often require a stable address, but without accessible housing, securing parole itself becomes an obstacle. Solutions That Are Making a Difference Despite the challenges, several initiatives in the Lehigh Valley are making strides toward improving reentry outcomes: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): A tool used in reentry programs to help individuals recognize and change negative thought patterns. The Reentry Coalition: A network of organizations collaborating to support individuals reentering society. Specialty Courts (Drug Court & Mental Health Court): Programs aimed at rehabilitation rather than incarceration, diverting nonviolent offenders toward treatment-based solutions. One-Stop Reentry Centers: Efforts are underway to establish centralized locations where individuals can access job training, mental health services, housing assistance, and legal aid in one place. While these programs are promising, expanding housing access, providing employer incentives, and improving parole officer training remain key priorities in reducing recidivism. Final Thoughts Reentry is not just about the individual—it's a community issue. When individuals successfully reintegrate, crime rates decrease, families remain intact, and communities grow stronger. However, employment barriers, housing restrictions, and punitive parole policies must be addressed to create long-term success. This episode of Lehigh Valley with Love underscores the need for policy changes, stronger community support, and a shift in public perception—from punishment to rehabilitation.

He is also an adjunct professor in the Sydney Democracy Network at Sydney University; an affiliate of the Sydney Environment Institute; an associate of the Sydney Policy Lab at Sydney University and an honorary fellow of the Law Faculty at UWA. A few weeks ago we published a conversation I had with David back in 2020, at the height the pandemic lockdowns. The world had seemingly turned on its axis, but in David's view was already spinning prior to covid19 sweeping the planet. As David last month began a new conversation with Greenpeace people and supporters, a monthly letter with love, I thought it was timely to chat again and check in with him post pandemic, but still very much in urgent crisis. David is a widely published writer, including three books, The Coal Truth, Contesting Native Title and the The Native Title Market, his insights into the climate emergency have been published in The Guardian, The Griffiths Review, Independent Australian and The Quarterly Essay. A frequent and highly regarded keynote speaker, David uses his platform to take audiences on a journey; through the wonder and awe of the natural world, the powers that threaten it and his profound belief in the human capacity for good. David also wrote a wonderful essay for the book, Living with the Anthropocene, a powerful anthology of writing from some leading writers, thinkers and doers.

Most of us grow up with a basic understanding of Greenpeace and the work they do. But being aware of the organisation's first ‘creative confrontation' happening close to home as a child is a fairly unique experience. And watching a life path unfold into a position of power in how the ‘peace' in Greenpeace plays out in today's fragile world? That could be considered a calling. David Ritter is the CEO of Greenpeace Australia Pacific where he works to achieve the company's mission of securing an Earth capable of nurturing life in all of its magnificent diversity. It wasn't a straight trajectory for Ritter. He describes his childhood as informed by, “a narrative of depletion”, and his career path via a law degree as, “a lack of imagination”. But now, he's certain he's in the right place. Listen in as Vince and David discuss the impacts of growing up a child of a refugee, how the historic Mabo decision has impacted his life, and why we all have a world-changing superpower.

On vous en a déjà parlé dans ce podcast, l'Australie est l'un des plus gros pollueurs de la planète, essentiellement pour son utilisation et son exportation massive de charbon. Ceci dit, avec un récent changement de Premier ministre, le pays a pris un virage écologique bienvenue quoiqu'un peu tardif au vu de la situation actuelle. Si le nouveau Premier ministre veut accélérer drastiquement la lutte contre le changement climatique, a-t-il au moins les moyens de combler le retard accumulé lors des précédentes mandatures ? Tous les détails dans cet épisode.Le 16 juin dernier, le Premier ministre de centre-gauche Anthony Albanese a presque doublé l'objectif de réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre pour 2030, visant désormais les 43%. Un travail titanesque devra donc être entrepris prochainement pour tenter de réduire les émissions du pays, comptant tout de même pour plus d'un pour cent des émissions totales de gaz à effet de serre dans le monde. À noter également que le pays est extrêmement dépendant de ses exportations de charbon à l'étranger, ce qui n'est pas pour arranger la situation. Le charbon exporté d'Australie représente à lui seul entre 3 et 5% du CO2 rejeté dans l'atmosphère chaque année, faisant du pays l'un des plus gros pollueurs de la planète. Plus précisément, l'Australie est le deuxième exportateur mondial de charbon et l'un des principaux exportateurs de gaz. Les combustibles fossiles représentent environ un quart des exportations australiennes, essentiellement à destination du Japon, de la Chine et de la Corée du Sud à en croire la Reserve Bank of Australia. Au niveau national, environ 70% de l'électricité provient du charbon et du gaz selon le gouvernement.Dès lors, le gouvernement fait face à des limites économiques dans son projet. Car d'après les analystes de la banque centrale, la demande internationale de charbon pourrait chuter de 80% d'ici le milieu du siècle, plongeant le pays dans une crise énergétique profonde si rien ne changeait. Ce serait donc également une course contre la montre dans laquelle s'est engagé l'Australie. Dès lors, certaines initiative se mettent en place comme celle du milliardaire Mike Cannon-Brookes, ardent défenseur de l'environnement qui a proposé de racheter plusieurs centrales électriques à charbon dans le but de les fermer d'ici 2030. Une offre évidemment rejetée par les propriétaires, mais qui n'augure rien de bon pour ces entreprises polluantes à en croire David Ritter, directeur général de Greenpeace Australie que je cite « chaque entreprise qui fait ces mêmes erreurs peut s'attendre à avoir de vrais perturbations, très très rapidement » fin de citation. En effet, le changement climatique a lourdement perturbé la vie des Australiens, notamment en 2019 et 2020 quand le pays a dû faire face à d'immenses feux de forêts ayant ravagé une superficie équivalente à celle de la Finlande, faisant une trentaine de morts et décimant des millions d'animaux.

"Cascading, compounding and aggregating" - I caught up with Rosemary Addis at the close of the recent Impact Investment Summit Asia Pacific, and in this episode we begin by talking about the last two years since we met in person, science, intersectionality, COVID and climate impacts, the latest IPCC report, our slip backwards in poverty and education and the impact this has on our ability to achieve the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This is paralled with seeing a profound sense of the importance of human connection and shifts in peoples search for meaning and their investing choices. We also touch on findings by the World Health Organization, supply chains, the unequal impact of natural disasters on women, the link between geography and inequality, and put a call out to people running organisations as to how they can get things back on track, and bring about equally cascading, compounding and aggregating positive change.We talk through David Ritter, CEO of Greenpeace Australia Pacific's recent call to action around lobbying Government, and then move into a series of reflections by Rosemary;Are you sacrificing being directionally correct for being precise? And could you end up pricesely wrong? What should we be focusing on? Do we have the systems now to move with confidence? What does Rosemary mean by "it's not about measurement - it's about management" ?

The Climate Action Show - August 9th 2021Produced by Vivien LangfordARE OUR LEADERS JUST "ACTING "ON CLIMATE?Episode 3 Exploring "The Ministry for the Future" by Kim Stanley Robinson Guests:Mark Spencer - Podcaster and Founder of Climactic CollectiveMeg Clancy - Actor, Dancer and Major Contributor to NITVLyn Bender - Psychologist and former Manager of Lifeline Melbourne Hope lies beyond latest climate shock therapy (eurekastreet.com.au)Greta Thunberg - Founder of Fridays for Future and Cassandra to the Climate Movement (229) Austrian World Summit 2021 - Greta Thunberg Speech - YouTubeKim Stanley Robinson and Naomi Klein at Rutgers University Institute for Earth, Ocean and Atrmospheric Sciences.Kim Stanley Robinson Special Event - Rutgers EOASMusic "Nada:" a tango from La Tabu. This is a theatrical and intense episode. We use KS Robinson's novel as a springboard to explore the themes of being overwraught with insufficient leadership. What are the many ways forward?It starts with a dramatised reading of the chapter where the head of the ministry, Mary Murphy, is kidnapped by Frank. He is a man traumatised by the great Indian heatwave which left millions dead. As he paces her Zurich apartment she thinks"His presence in her kitchen was all too much like one of her insomniac whirlpools of thought, as if she had stumbled into one of her nightmares while still awake, so that she couldn't get out of it."Then the actors and I discuss with psychologist Lyn Bender how leaders must accept these messengers from the climate frontlines and act with urgency, while remaining confident and resolute that we can repair the damage.The second item is Greta Thunberg at the 2021 Vienna Climate Summit. She tells leaders that they are pretending to change, pretending to take the science seriously, pretending to wage war on fossil fuels while opening up new oil pipelines, gas fields and coal mines. She says " The audience has grown wary, the show is over"Thirdly we go to Rutgers University to hear the author, Kim Stanley Robinson , talking about the hard things he had to say. The needle in the eye moments. Naomi Klein calls him a "possibilist" and talks about the sort of dystopian and escapist narratives we are hard wired for. Are we fascinated by the billionaires aiming to colonise space because we were brought up on Noah's Ark? (229) Why Jeff Bezos' Space Dream is Humanity's Nightmare | George Monbiot - YouTubeWe learn about geo-engineering, how capitalism must change and how modern monetary theory can be used for good.If you haven't read the novel yet do try now. It is an easy way to look at the future and all the paths we could follow once we wake up.Breaks for tango dancing courtesy of La Tabu. Breaking news after our broadcast. Here are some Greenpeace responses to the latest IPCC report launched at 6pmJoseph Moeno-Kolio, Greenpeace Head of Pacific, said:“The IPCC's latest report leaves no doubt that the fossil fuel companies actively driving the climate crisis need to be stopped if Pacific people are to have any chance of living in safety and with some measure of dignity.”“The climate change genie can't go back into the bottle. It's too late to reverse so much of the damage the mining and burning of coal, oil and gas have already done to our beautiful islands but the world needs to do everything in its power to stop the climate crisis before it ends our entire way of life.”“There is a more than 50 per cent likelihood that 1.5 degrees of warming will be exceeded by the early 2030s under all scenarios. For a region already suffering the effects of 1.1 degrees of warming, this will be disastrous for our communities, our economies and our cultures.”“Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison met last week with Pacific leaders and committed to supporting the Pacific family. This report has found that if Morrison's obsession with fossil fuels isn't immediately ended, these words might one day be nothing more than an empty lament on the family tomb.”“For years, Pacific leaders have been calling on the world to follow the science and act on the causes of global heating. This latest report only further vindicates the awful truth: if we continue to burn fossil fuels, we burn through any chance of a safe, prosperous future.”David Ritter, CEO of Greenpeace Australia Pacific, said:“No more excuses and no more delays on climate change. This is decision time for every political and business leader in Australia. This is the issue on which you will be judged by history and by the children of Australia, whose futures are on the line.”“The IPCC Working Group 1 report makes it clear that we are out of control and accelerating towards disaster. Only if we make deep, rapid emissions cuts including the complete phase out of climate-destroying coal, oil and gas do we have a chance of making it to a safer, habitable future powered by clean energy.”“All decisions our leaders make from today must be informed by this knowledge. Any further expansion of our dangerous gas and coal industries is untenable. Australia must close all coal burning power stations by 2030 at the latest.“We could have made emissions cuts decades ago that would have put us on a path to a safer future, but this was blocked by the vested interests of coal, oil and gas and the politicians who have subsidised and protected these big polluters.” “Australia is one of the most carbon intensive economies in the world, making an outsized contribution to the global crisis we face, and our leaders are obstructive in international negotiations.”“As the biggest exporter of coal and gas in the world, Australia's main export these days is climate damage. Our international trading partners, most of whom are moving rapidly to reduce emissions, will be putting increasing pressure on Australia's leaders in the lead up to the COP26 Summit in November, with our country increasingly seen as a rogue state on climate.”“If this report makes you feel angry, sad and afraid, that is because it is angering, saddening and frightening. Climate change is not an accident or a force of nature. It is caused primarily by the pollution produced by coal, oil and gas corporations.”“We have a choice. We already have the renewable energy technology to make huge emissions cuts in our electricity system which will put us well on the path to a safer future, with many of our biggest and most trusted businesses already committed to 100% renewable electricity by 2025.”“Now, as pressure builds on Australia's leaders to reduce emissions, we can put an end to the fossil fuel industry holding the fortunes of our country to ransom and still choose the future we want.”

For the latest episode of Omni Talk’s new Ask An Expert Interview Series for 2021, Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga interview Kristin Kohler Burrows and David Ritter of the A&M Consumer and Retail Group. David and Kristin love retail, have great backgrounds as both operators and consultants (Kristin in shoes and David in the Army), and both share our Omni Talk passion for great debate as a path to the right answers. Every week they put us on the spot with tough questions about the future of retail in our weekly Omni Talk Fast Five podcast. In this episode, Chris and Anne turn the tables on them and put them to test and ask them to share their thoughts as experts on the future of retail and what matters most, right now. Together the four of them discuss: – The issues facing various categories of retail – Inventory management and assortment planning, especially in grocery – Digital marketplace partnerships and the impact on in-store experiences – The move to microfulfillment and overall grocery profitability -- CPG's going direct-to-consumer (and the lessons they can take from the footwear industry) -- Anne's favorite topic du jour, revenge spending, and jumping feet first into the latest seasonal trends -- And, the two trends to which retailers should be paying more attention but are not (sustainability and China) Listen to this podcast, and one thing will stand out — Kristin and David have pretty sound thoughts around how to work smarter and not harder as retailers. And, for those keeping score at home, their combined Millennial score was about a 33 to 35.

Ash and Jess begin in a world of climate anxiety - and to get out of it they're going to need a plan. We go back to basics - what even is climate change? And what do we need to do to stop it? We unpack the concept of collective action - why it works and where it's worked in the past. We realise that instead of individual action we need to work out how to change the system - so together, we're ditching the guilt and self-blame and finding where our personal ‘superpowers' fit within collective climate action. So grab a mate, share this podcast with them, and then sit down and make a plan together.

"We are at one of those pivotal moments when it feels like the world is coming undone," wrote David Ritter, CEO of Greenpeace Australia Pacific in a recent newsletter. "But the best of humanity comes out in moments of crisis. It's a phenomenon that we saw in the [recent Australian bush] fires, and which we are seeing again in the face of the pandemic." Can we take this enforced pause to design a better way of relating to each other and the natural world? How can we use compassion in our activism? Where can we find solidarity in solitude?

Head of Greenpeace Australasia, David Ritter is a powerful voice for political change and activism. From his talk and an interview we did at Woodford at the start of this year David talks about the Chernobyl moment Australia faced with the fires and some confronting comparisons between Australia's political leaders and those of Russia. The Coronavirus, a crisis all on its own, is also one that has made us more aware of how vulnerable our systems are and will be to the climate crisis that is unfolding. https://www.greenpeace.org.au/

The Ideas and Society Program, convened by Professor Robert Manne, is a forum for discussion about the future of Australia and beyond. In 2019 we are hosting a series of discussions regarding some of the most fundamental and polarising issues Australians now face, either between those with fundamentally different points of view or between those with similar points of view but different ideas about strategy and tactics. Our next event is taking place three days before one of the most challenging political events of 2019--the climate change school student strike. Climate change is regarded by many scientists, policymakers and citizens as the gravest problem humankind has ever faced. Unless fossil fuels are replaced by renewable sources of energy in the next decade or so, future generations will face a ruinous post-industrial revolution rise in global temperature of 3 degree Celsius or something even higher. Climate change is also an almost uniquely difficult problem. The Paris ambition to limit temperature rise to 1.5 degrees relies upon a level of international co-operation never before achieved. If humankind fails to take the action now required the consequences will be irreversible. It is no hyperbole to say that the future of the Earth lies in our hands. What happens in Australia matters greatly. If our domestic energy consumption and our exports of coal, oil and gas are taken into account, we are responsible for 5% of global carbon pollution. Climate Analytics has calculated that if all the fossil fuel developments now proposed were to proceed, Australia would be responsible for a staggering 13% of worldwide carbon emissions. For those fighting for the radical changes required, climate change poses a daunting political challenge. According to the conventional interpretation, in the recent federal election those Queensland Coalition candidates cheering on the Adani coal mine polled unusually well. In the short term at least, the anti-Adani protest march failed to sway local public opinion. Climate change is a generational problem. Older Australians took up the struggle. The lives of younger Australians will be shaped by the impact of climate change. The Ideas and Society Program has brought together, for this reason, front line fighters across the generations to reflect on recent experience and debate future strategy. The former leader of the Greens, Bob Brown, is the revered father of the Australian environmental movement.David Ritter is the leader in Australia and the Pacific of the pioneering world-wide environmental movement, Greenpeace.Dr Amanda Cahill, a Queensland grassroots analyst and activist, is the founder and chief executive of The Next Economy.Maiysha Moin is a leader in Victoria of one of the most hopeful recent climate change developments, the school strike movement that is taking action on September 20.This debate will be introduced by La Trobe University's Vice President (Strategy and Development), Natalie MacDonald, and moderated by La Trobe University's Director of the Centre for the Study of the Inland, Professor Katie Holmes.

Australian Earth Laws Alliance and the Uni of NSW held: "Building the New Economy - activism, enterprise, and social change", in August, 2016. It was a 2 day conference aimed at getting a diverse lot of people together to have a serious look at what an economy based on the needs of planet and people might look like, and how to go about creating one. Behind the Lines was there and recorded all we could. Apologies to those we missed. The conference spawned the New Economy Network of Australia – visit https://neweconomy.org.au/ to find out about the next conference.
