This episode was recorded during the virtual session “Parliamentary Action for Disaster Risk Reduction and Preparedness in the Caribbean,” organized by ParlAmericas, the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), UN Women Multi-Country Office for the Caribbean, and the UN World Food Programme, in September 2024.In the session, Jair Torres, Programme Management Officer at UNDRR for the Americas and the Caribbean, provided an in-depth analysis on the importance of Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems as a tool to reduce the risk of hazards becoming disasters in the Caribbean. He speaks about how parliamentarians can contribute through legislation, oversight, and budget allocations to ensuring that these systems are fully operational. Mr. Torres explores elements that support the implementation of Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems, including reviewing and amending existing sectoral legislation to ensure effective integration of MHEWS, the need for clear governance frameworks, and adequate funding for the financial sustainability of these systems. He also highlights the importance of integrating social inclusivity considerations into these systems to ensure that all communities, particularly vulnerable groups and women and girls, are protected by them.
What do you think? Send us a textToday we're doing something different. We're devoting this episode to last weekend's huge rain, the flooding and other disasters it spawned, and the climate migrants who will emerge from these incidents. And here I'd like to give my condolences to the family and friends of the more than 200 people confirmed killed in the devastation. I know: last week I guaranteed we would share the episode about the nurse migrating to Canada but I thought the topic of climate migration — which I've been wanting to discuss for a while — was just too timely to postpone. This episode also has a different format. I have two guests: Sagar Shrestha, Director of the Disaster Management Department at the Nepal Red Cross Society and Manjeet Dhakal, Head of the LDC Support Team and Director, at the South Asia office of Climate Analytics. I recorded this very quickly so the first chat with Sagar, which we did Sunday night, lacks the usual introduction and goodbye, and the quality is not quite up to our usual standard. I recorded with Manjeet on Monday evening. He was in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan, so the line wasn't crystal clear either.

In this enlightening episode of She Stands for Peace, we delve into the critical role of African women in early warning systems for conflict prevention. We explore the intersection of natural disasters, conflict, and the need for gender-sensitive approaches to early warning mechanisms. With expert insights from Camlus Omogo, Director of IGAD's Conflict Early Warning and Response Mechanism, and Dr. Richard Munang, Head of UNEP's Climate and Early Warning Systems, we examine how women's participation is not only necessary but can significantly enhance the effectiveness of these systems. Join us as we discuss the importance of inclusivity, the empowerment of women through socio-economic resilience, and the transformative potential of early action over early warning. As we approach the 25th anniversary of UNSCR 1325, we consider the progress made and the urgent priorities ahead to ensure women are integral to Africa's peace and security architecture.

This audio is brought to you by Endress and Hauser, a leading supplier of products, solutions and services for industrial process measurement and automation. Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment Minister Barbara Creecy reports that the Climate Change Response Fund announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa in his State of the Nation Address (SoNA) has been established to support the development of early-warning systems, as well as for adaptation projects to improve the climate resiliency of infrastructure amid the growing threats posed by extreme weather events. Addressing the Presidential Climate Commission (PCC) in Johannesburg, Creecy said that there was also potential to use the fund as a "channel" for financial resources that could be made available to developing countries following the recent operationalisation of a loss and damage fund. The loss and damage fund was established at the recent COP28 climate talks, held in the United Arab Emirates, where initial funding commitments of $700-million were announced. In his SoNA speech, Ramaphosa highlighted several recent climate-related disasters, including "devastating wildfires in the Western Cape, destructive floods in KwaZulu-Natal, unbearable heatwaves in the Northern Cape, persistent drought in the Eastern Cape, and intense storms in Gauteng". He said the Climate Change Response Fund would be established to help "build our resilience and respond to the impacts of climate change" but did not provide further details, including on where it would be housed and how it would be funded. Creecy told the PCC that consideration was being given to hosting the fund either at the Development Bank of Southern Africa or the Industrial Development Corporation, but provided no timeframe from its implementation. She confirmed that government would set aside some resources to capitalise the fund but indicated that the intention was to also crowd-in private finance in a manner similar to the Solidarity Fund that was set up during the Covid-19 pandemic. Resources secured for the fund would be used to strengthen the country's early-warning systems for detecting extreme weather events, with Creecy noting that there were growing domestic and international examples of how the use of such systems had been effective in preventing the loss of life. Proceeds would also be directed towards adapting infrastructure to make it more resilient to events such as wildfires and floods, as well as to safeguard water and food security in the aftermath of weather-related disasters. Such adaptation efforts, the Minister added, could also help ensure that climate-related loss and damage did not become a "bottomless pit" for municipalities and provinces, which currently relied on disaster-management allocations to finance relief efforts. Creecy also indicated that the Climate Change Response Fund would complement the Just Energy Transition Implementation Plan (JET-IP), which was focused on climate mitigation investments rather than adaptation. Ramaphosa announced in his SoNA that financing pledges for the JET-IP had increased from about R170-billion to almost R240-billion, amid growing calls for the proceeds to be used specifically for energy-related or upliftment projects. The bulk of the JET-IP transfers to date having been directed to the National Treasury in the form of policy loans that have been used to lower the overall cost of borrowing.

Why is a multi-disciplinary approach key to addressing biodiversity loss? Listen to Jason Mitchell discuss with Professor Simon Levin, Princeton University, about what's at stake in the effort to preserve biodiversity loss; how his work has expanded into the sociological, political economy and policy space; and why a common language — a grammar for economic reasoning — is vital for bringing together different disciplines to understand nature. Professor Simon Levin is the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University and the Director of the Center for BioComplexity in the High Meadows Environmental Institute. His research examines the structure and functioning of ecosystems, the dynamics of disease, and the coupling of ecological and socioeconomic systems. Simon is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a Member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Philosophical Society, and a Foreign Member of the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti, and the Istituto Lombardo. He has over 500 publications and is the editor of the Encyclopedia of Biodiversity and the Princeton Guide to Ecology. Simon's awards include: the Heineken Prize for Environmental Sciences, Kyoto Prize in Basic Sciences, the Ecological Society of America's MacArthur and Eminent Ecologist Awards, the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement, and the National Medal of Science.
In This Episode Does financial services ever have an off-season? Is now the time to update your playbook? . Today, host JP Nicols tackles a few of these questions and then speaks with James Anderson, Paze's Managing Director, about a new launch on track for early next year. Paze is a new digital bank wallet from Early Warning Systems, the fintech company that brought us Zelle several years ago and is owned by some of the largest banks in the US. A completely separate venture focused on e-commerce payments, Paze no doubt benefits from learnings in creating Zelle. The US payments world is complicated, Paze aims to be ubiquitous on both consumer and merchant sides, the piece in the middle connecting financial institutions, providing better outcomes, and making purchases more convenient and secure. Launching with 1,000 banks, Paze is 100% online payments focused, offered by participating banks and credit unions, built to simplify and secure checkout by tokenizing credit and debit card numbers so users never have to enter card data, usernames or remember passwords. A new product, a new year and the next era of banking just around the corner.

According to satellite cataloger Jonathan McDowell, there are now 18 satellite constellations, like Starlink, being planned. These constellations will contain 543,811 satellites. This is a whole lot of missions to try and keep from colliding and all it takes is one particularly bad collision to transform the more than half-million objects from useful technologies to a shield of shrapnel that protects our universe from us by trapping us here. In our closer look today, we are going to look at early warning systems that are being developed, and how future - more highly mobile satellites, can both do good and create chaos.

The worst drought in 40 years has left 23 million people at risk of starvation in the Horn of Africa. New research has found that it was 100 times more likely to have happened because of climate change. Food insecurity, conflict and perishing livestock are just a few elements of an ever-worsening crisis, with proactive planning difficult for governments with limited resources and other immediate problems. So what can be done to fight the worst effects of the ongoing crisis? Presenter Sophie Eastaugh hears about climate adaptation strategies pioneered by Maasai people, initiatives to implement Early Warning Systems, and what's stopping governments acting. Sophie is joined by: Lanoi Meitiekene, a leader within the Maasai community Joyce Kimutai, Principal Meteorologist at Kenya Meteorological Department Yared Abera Deme, Research Analyst with the International Climate Action team, WRI Africa, Ethiopia.

IFPRI-AMIS SEMINAR SERIES Facilitating Anticipatory Action with Improved Early Warning Guidance Co-organized by IFPRI and Agricultural Market Information System (AMIS) SEP 26, 2023 - 9:00 TO 10:30AM EDT Worldwide, the number of people facing crisis-level or worse acute food insecurity has more than doubled since 2017. The 2023 Mid-Year Update of the Global Report on Food Crisis (GRFC) signals 238 million people in 48 countries with recent, comparable data are facing high levels of acute food insecurity, an increase by 10 percent from 2022. The GRFC provides trends and projections of food crises and informs the Global Network Against Food Crisis on where humanitarian and developmental assistance is most needed. These new acute food insecurity numbers come at a time of ongoing uncertainty in global food markets amidst the repercussions of the war in Ukraine, fears for a strong El Niño phenomenon and other potential shocks. Most food crises grow out of compounding causes such as conflict, adverse weather shocks fueled by climate change, and economic shocks. A good understanding of these causes can facilitate the development of sound crisis response plans and anticipatory action to help mitigate a looming crisis and build food systems resilience. Calls have grown for preemptive or anticipatory action to mitigate impacts, reduce recovery costs, and strengthen social, economic, and environmental resilience to shocks, but resources for humanitarian responses still remain significantly larger than those for preventive development action. This seminar will take stock of existing early warning, early action systems (EWEAs) and examine whether they provide sufficient guidance to policymakers and decisionmakers keen to enhance anticipatory action and is featured under the IFPRI-AMIS policy seminar series on Making Sense of Food and Agricultural Markets. Opening Remarks Johan Swinnen, Managing Director, Systems Transformation, CGIAR; Director General, IFPRI Global Food Crisis: Where do we Stand and How is the GRFC Servicing Early Warning Systems? Sara McHattie, Global Coordinator of Food Security Information Network (FSIN) How to Identify Food Crisis Risks?

Doris Roof, Montecito Bank & Trust Fraud Manager, and Deputy District Attorney Vicki Johnson, give advice on how to use Zelle safely. Roof reeals that Zelle guidelies are set up by Early Warning Systems. To help prevent fraud, Early Warning Systems is adding more prompts, asking questions such as, "Did you initiate this transaction or did someone else ask you to initiate the transaction?" Other Zelle Tips include the following: - Dont send money to people you don't know. - Confirm the email and/or mobile number when receiving requests or sending money, looking for slight changes, such as an l replaced with an i. - Look at the entire header and be sure it doesn't originate from overseas. - If you get a text or email warning saying your account has been hacked, don't reply directly.

We have finally developed a significant product that is used across the country to eliminate landlord paid water usage and increase net operating income in rental units. [00:00:17] Welcome Doorgrow Hackers to the DoorGrowShow. If you are a property management entrepreneur that wants to add doors, make a difference, increase revenue, help others, impact lives, and you are interested in growing in business and life, and you're open to doing things a bit differently, then you are a DoorGrow Hacker. DoorGrow Hackers love the opportunities, daily variety, unique challenges, and freedom that property management brings. Many in real estate think you're crazy for doing it. You think they're crazy for not because you realize that property management is the ultimate high trust gateway to real estate deals, relationships, and residual income. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry, eliminate the bs, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. I'm your host, property management growth expert, Jason Hull, the founder, and CEO of DoorGrow. Now let's get into the show. [00:01:18] My guest today is Kal McDonough. Did I say it right? [00:01:22] Yes, you did. Jason, I appreciate you having me here today. [00:01:25] Glad to have you. So Kal, you are with a company called what? What's the name of the company? [00:01:32] True Submeter. [00:01:33] True Submeter. Okay. So can you explain to us a little bit of background on yourself and how you got really excited about submeters? [00:01:43] Yeah, absolutely. I'm a recent grad from the University of Minnesota and we started this company, me and my partner, in 2016 because we got interested in real estate. Now being so young, we didn't know how to start investing with nothing. We didn't have the capital to do it. So we tried to figure out a product that real estate investors would like to have, that we could make that no one is really doing. And that's how we figured out a lot of people, a lot of owners are paying for their tenants' water usage. So we wanted to create a product to eliminate that, which is our True Submeter. It's a true submeter. We started this project in 2016 and we have finally developed a significant product that is used across the country to eliminate landlord paid water usage and increase net operating income in rental units. [00:02:40] Okay. [00:02:42] Yeah, so basically we have two major products. We have our main line meter and our point of use meter. And the main line is our biggest seller, as you only need one per unit. These get attached to the plumbing to each, and it remotely tracks bills and shows live coverage of water usage for each month. So if someone were interested in purchasing our product, we set up an account for you. We send you our product, you install it, and from there on we take care of all the billing that is necessary for your tenants to receive the water bills, and then they will pay you, the landlord, and it's completely covered from there. [00:03:23] Got it. So people aren't using anything like this currently? Often? [00:03:30] So we have few competitors, however their products do not do the same thing as we do. Most of the time. If you would like to buy a submeter, you get the physical submeter and it has readings on it that you can physically take. Most people will need to hire someone to go read those. However, ours connect to wifi and automatically trans mit that to your account and to the tenants. So it eliminates a middle ground there. And it also eliminates you having to kind of coordinate with the tenant, coordinate with the city. That's completely on us. [00:04:06] Got it. How do you solve the wifi challenge, or whose wifi are these using? [00:04:12] Right, great question. So we set up our own routers and ship them with each order. These are specifically only to connect to our sub meters, so no one else can use these routers. There's special wifi, username and password that only our meters get connected to and we completely take care of the cellular payments and everything. So this has nothing to do with the landlord. You don't have to set up a new wireless connection. And it's great that we can troubleshoot it knowing that it's our own wifi. [00:04:42] Got it. Okay. So tell me, what are some of the big questions that people have about this and why should they do the extra work to get this set up and pay attention to this? Most property managers are probably thinking: how's this going to make me more money? How's this going to benefit my clients? Maybe you could go into that. [00:05:01] Yeah, absolutely. I can start off with a pretty simple example. Just saying if a landlord that owns a simple duplex is currently paying for their tenant's water bills because the property only gets one water bill. A lot of cities have a legal rule where you cannot split it down the middle because one tenant is using less. [00:05:20] Right. [00:05:20] You can't have them billed for more than what they're using. And that's one of the key reasons why our product is so great is if you're now recording the specific usage for each tenant, now you're able to bill them. A lot of people question is it worth the money? Is it worth the investment? A great thing about our product is for a lot of the people that we sell to, this is a one-time investment that now you're saving all of this monthly revenue that you don't have to pay for your tenant's water bill. I would like to get into that a little bit more as we do charge a monthly service fee, which is $5.90. Per unit. So say you have a duplex $5.90 per unit, that's $11.80 per month. However, we are able to bill this to the tenant. So this could be a one-time investment for a landlord owner or a property owner or property management company. And I think that's really what sets us apart of from any competitor that we have as well is we minimize our costs of the investment there. There is no one else that is able to accommodate the pricing of this for an original investment. Like I said, we have two main products, our mainline meters, which I touched on a little bit, and then we also have a point of use meter. Now the difference between these two products depends on the plumbing of the property. If plumbing is separated between units our mainline option is going to work fantastic for you because you only need one meter per unit. And these come at a flat price of $79 each. Now if plumbing is not separated and it flows through the entire property, we have our point of use option, which gets attached to every single point of use in the unit. [00:07:11] For example, a kitchen sink, a bathroom sink, toilet washer, shower et cetera. Now, this is a little bit bigger of an investment being that you need more meters and it comes at the same price per meter, $79 each. But it does the same function. They do the exact same thing. We group these point of use meters together. They all still connect to the same wifi router and still bill monthly. Now this is another reason why we are kind of special in that we are the only people that have this point of use option. Otherwise it's completely mainline meters from our competitors. And that's really something special that we set ourselves apart from. Although we recommend if possible, our main line meter is just easier and more affordable. We can accommodate those interesting plumbing scenarios. [00:08:04] Got it. And so how difficult is it to attach the mainline meters or the point of use, meters? Is this something they need plumber to install or is this something they can typically do? [00:08:16] Yep. So we do not do installation as we're based out of Minnesota and we sell to across the country. A plumber is recommended. Although we do know a few of our customers have a maintenance team on hand if it's a property management company or whatnot. We send an installation guide that goes step by step. If someone wanted to save money and do it themselves, they would have the opportunity to do that, although we do recommend a plumber on site. [00:08:43] Right. That's probably a good idea for liability reasons. [00:08:47] Of course. [00:08:48] Alright, cool. So how do you justify this to people that have multi-unit properties and, they're low rent. How are you convincing, the property managers to do this and how are they convincing the owners to do this? Right, of course. Well, a great tool that we have, which is included on our website, is an ROI. This is a simple tool that you can plug in simple math equations and find out how much money you will be saving or how much return on the investment you will get from us. I think that's an easy way to, really show that we are worth it. And if that's not enough, then we just want to provide the simplicity of eliminating something like this for a property management company. What's nice for multi-home owners is that the account that we will set up for a personal owner, all of your properties in one are in one. It's easy to use. We, like I said before, we are very pleased with the simplicity of our website, our accounts, how they function. And along with that, I would like to offer my support and troubleshooting techniques to give any customers that we have an opportunity to connect with someone real instead of just looking up on our website and trying to find a solution. [00:10:01] So Kal, you mentioned your website several times. What's the website address? [00:10:05] It's simple. It's truesubmeter.com. [00:10:07] Okay. And there's no clever spelling with True. It's t r u e. [00:10:11] T r u e s u b m e t e r.com. [00:10:16] Got it. Great. Truesubmeter.com. Okay. What other questions might property managers be curious to know about this or concerns? [00:10:24] One question that we get quite a lot is, do we have a warranty? As our warranty is that if our meters break due to natural use, we'll replace 'em. We have a few to minimal to none replacements necessary in the time that we've been a company, which is quite impressive. We do know that some people have interesting tenants that will like to not cooperate in the ways that we would always like them to. And we offer a major discount based off of that if a meter happens to get tampered with broken due to outside circumstances. So that's one question that we get quite a bit. [00:11:02] And they can pass that along, to the tenant. They can fee the tenant for damaging. You agree? [00:11:08] Correct? Correct. We have had a couple of issues with some tenants that were not supposed to be there anymore. And we had to redo an entire project based off of that. And they weren't, they were not happy with that bill. But yes, we're very confident in our products which also I think sets us apart. And. . I'm trying to think of all-- [00:11:25] So curious, related to that, if a property is vacant, is there any sort of warning system that could be in integrated with this? Maybe in the future if somebody is flushing toilets or using the sink or something and no maintenance people and no tenants are in place like it's vacant? Absolutely. I mean, one of the key things to that is if the property is vacant and there is usage going. You will get a monthly bill saying there's usage. Obviously unless we know from the landlord that the property is vacant and there shouldn't be we're going to be assuming that it should be in usage. But otherwise-- another thing just to add on to that is our leak detection system where if we get weekly usage rates that show us if there's a abnormally large amount of usage at a property which will trigger us to contact the landlord and say, Hey, there's quite a bit of usage here. There could possibly be a leak. We know sometimes tenants do use this amount of water, but if not, this should get checked on. And then that's saving the landlord numerous amount of money as well. They don't have to pay the city for all the leaking. [00:12:34] Got it. Okay. Yeah. Very cool. All right. Did we miss anything? [00:12:40] Not off the top of my head. I think we kind of covered everything. Very cool. Leak detection. If it's vacant, you'll be alerted by the monthly bill. Like, Hey, what's going on here? You've got the main benefit. Why don't you sum up the main sort of benefit here and we'll wrap up. [00:12:56] Right. I mean, like we've stated a couple times here, the main benefit of our product is to eliminate landlord paid water utilities. I mean, that's the main goal of our company. It's a small investment to a large return. And I think that's why people should look into our company and partner with us going forward. [00:13:15] Cool. And this can be a profit center for property managers. [00:13:20] That is a good question. This cannot be a profit center for property managers. As there is strict rules with how much tenants get billed for usage and utilities we make sure that they are only getting billed for what the city bills them. And that is due to legal terms. [00:13:36] Got it. But they can charge a monthly fee for the use of this tool or service? [00:13:42] Correct. That is correct. [00:13:44] Okay. [00:13:44] And this monthly fee is from True Submeter ourselves. [00:13:49] Yeah. Can they mark that up? [00:13:51] We have had a few customers in the past mark this up to combat the investment, and that is allowed. However, we don't recommend it as tenants most likely would not like to pay higher bills for, probably for something that they might not have wanted in the first place. [00:14:09] Sure. Okay. But at least they don't have to pay the water bill for their neighbor. [00:14:15] Correct. Correct. [00:14:17] Okay. Very cool. All right, well Kal appreciate you coming on the show and sharing this.

A frantic cacophony of loud, rapid birdcalls tells other birds there's a predator on the prowl. It's called “mobbing” as birds clamor and dart — back and forth — at the threat. An ongoing study of mobbing and other bird warning behavior suggests that some birds listen in on the warnings of other birds. A wave of warning calls spreads from one hillside to another at more than 100 miles per hour. So vulnerable birds may be clued in to the movements of predators like this Northern Pygmy-Owl, giving them time to take cover. Learn more at BirdNote.org.

Dr Debbie Weiser explains the importance of building an early warning system in the US before a major earthquake hits.
