This week on The Florida Roundup, we talk about some of the biggest challenges to stabilizing Florida's insurance market with the state's insurance commissioner, Michael Yarwosky, and Tim Cerio, president/CEO and executive director of Citizens Property Insurance Corp. And later, we speak with the Miami Herald's senior political correspondent about calls for the head of the state's Republican Party to step down and the Florida Democrats' decision to cancel its presidential primary. Plus, a collection of environmental stories from across the state.

Host Joseph R. DeMare talks about the temperature anomaly graph that shows we've crossed the 2 degree centigrade line, probably meaning the end of our civilization. He also talks about the misguided policies of the Citizens' Climate Lobby which are endorsed by the American Petroleum Institute. Having Exxon sending people checks will not slow carbon use. Next he interviews Austrian author Verena Mer Mer about differences and similarities between US and Austrian environmental policies and attitudes. Rebecca Wood then tells us about the supersized North American Wood Bison. Environmental News includes more Fukushima dumping, changes to the USDA's plant hardiness map, and Greenpeace's establishment of radiological monitors all over Ukraine. Saveecobot.com gives everyone real time measurements of radiation, so when the next Chernobyl happens, we will know. 

In his final episode as guest host, Joseph D. DeMare has to go solo for the whole hour as Rebecca is out sick. In the first part of the show, he talks about the ecological problems with Halloween candy, specifically palm oil. Then he reviews more environmentally friendly ways to heat your home than natural gas furnaces. Then we have an interview with Deborah Lee, Director of the Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab or GLERL talking about algal blooms and GLERL's 50th anniversary. Next there's some videos from the EPA describing Denver's electric school bus program and the Toxic Release Inventory. Environmental News includes a Cleveland company making furniture from old wind turbine blades, drought paralyzing the Panama Canal, and Britain's shrinking high speed rail ambitions. 

As more and more news outlets close, writers, editors, and photographers across the South are reconsidering how communities stay informed.

Van Badham joins Ben Davison for a very special edition of the Weekend Wrap to bring you The Week on Wednesday, on a Sunday. Van and Ben dive into the Morrison government's pre-budget leaks, analyse Insiders and Jim Chalmer's focus on wages and job security during his interview.  The budget will benefit from rising commodity prices but Morrison's renouncement of old policies, leaking of cash hand outs and continued waste on rorts doesn't look like addressing the job insecurity, real wage cuts and increasing living costs that are smashing Australian households.  Australian Unions are taking action in workplaces and communities around the country to make work more secure and lift wages join them at australianunions.org.au/wow Morrison's record on delivering lines up with his record on lying as he was caught out in yet another needless lie about his connection to the Hillsong Church and its now disgraced former leader Brian Houston.  Van and Ben look at how the 2022 election will be impacted in a very different way by Morrison's trust deficit from the way it impacted 2019. Putin's four day war in Ukraine enter's its 30th day with another dead general, senior staff missing, field commanders turning on each other, civilians ejecting soldiers from cities and Biden condemning Putin as a war criminal while the autocrat of Russia starts to talk about withdrawing to the most eastern parts of Ukraine.
