Pulling near-freezing water from the depths of Lake Ontario, this massive infrastructure system provides alternative cooling to more than 100 buildings in downtown Toronto, including arenas, condos, offices, data centres and hospitals — a clean energy initiative that has been recognized by the United Nations. Evelyn Allen is the co-founder of Evercloak, a Waterloo-based company that has developed graphene oxide membranes that helps to dehumidify air before it reaches AC and HVAC units, significantly reducing the energy and refrigerants needed to cool a space. The company is currently part of the Mission from MaRS: Better Buildings Adoption Accelerator program. Daniel A. Barber is a professor of architecture and the environment at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands. Barber's research and work focuses on how changing temperatures have altered our built environment, and how architects can help adapt to the climate crisis.

The Minister of Agriculture and Forestry has announced a half a million dollar support package from government and industry for flood-affected farmers, growers and foresters in the Tasman region. It comes as the district-wide clean up continues, with Mayor Tim King estimating the total repair bill has already exceeded $100 million, alongside a warning more heavy rain is expected in the coming months. Samantha Gee reports.

A forestry industry leader says a $600,000 government support package for flood hit farmers, growers and foresters in the Nelson Tasman region is a start, as the extent of the damage is still being assessed. New Zealand Forestry Owner's Association chief executive Elizabeth Heeg spoke to Corin Dann.

Joe Hamilton, Legend of Conservation - Part 1 of 2. The profound success story of whitetail conservation could not be told without Joe Hamilton. He spearheaded a movement in the South that expanded across the country forever changing the landscape of herd health and habitat quality. I met Mr. Joe years ago at Rose Hill Plantation sometime in the early 2000's. I was thrilled to shake his hand and to be invited on such a hunt by the Morrison family. I've never been one to follow hunting media shows or celebrity type hunters. QDMA was the content I consumed and Joe is a figure that I've always admired and respected.  Several years ago I connected with Joe Hamilton again.  Joe joined us for a mentored hunt at my family farm for a memorable weekend and since then we have stayed in touch. When I started Southeast Whitetail, Joe was at the top of my list to interview and showcase his dedication and career work with conservation. Thus, I asked Joe to film the first episode of Southeastern Sit-down Series: Joe Hamilton, Legend of Conservation.  Joe has a long and storied history in the outdoors which is well documented in his book: "Firepot Stories".  A fascinating read and very informative of the revered white-tailed deer.  Thank you for listening to the interview and a very special thank you to Mr. Joe Hamilton. He opened his home to me and I greatly appreciate his time. Below are career highlights and the numerous recognition awards.  Career:Native of Elizabethtown, NC.BS Degree in Forest Resources 1971 - UGAMS Degree in Wildlife Biology 1978 - UGASC DNR 1979 - 1995Founded QDMA in 1988 and has been involved with various roles & positions still to this day.Ducks Unlimited 1996 - 2000Awards & Achievements:1975 - NC Wildlife Federation Conservationist of the Year.1982 - Julian C.

Grocery stores often throw away products that are not expired, but that are past their suggested “Best by” date. That may change in Pennsylvania thanks to a new law signed by Gov. Josh Shapiro last week. It's been more than a century since archeologists discovered the tomb of the Egyptian Pharaoh known as King Tut. Several members of the discovery team suffered untimely deaths shortly after, and the myth of the “mummy’s curse” was born. Scientists believe that team may have actually been exposed to a toxic fungus. Now, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania say that same fungus could help fight cancer. A recent three day clinic allowed firefighters in the city of Wilkes-Barre to get screened for cancer. First responders have an increased risk of cancer from so-called forever chemicals known as P-FAS, which can come from firefighting gear and smoke inhalation. Republican Congressman Dan Meuser - who explored a run for Pennsylvania governor - reportedly won't challenge Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro next year, even after getting an endorsement from President Donald Trump. More than 450 wildland firefighters are now prepared to repond to wildfires across Pennsylvania and nationwide after training at Shippensburg University. Firefighters from 11 states attended the week-long training, offered through the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources' Bureau of Forestry. York City's comprehensive plan appears to be stalled... three months after it was last scheduled for a vote by city council members. A draft of the 200-page plan was previously available on the city's website, but it was removed sometime between April and July.

Crews battled a roughly 10-acre fire north of Kasilof over the weekend. The Alaska Division of Forestry first reported the so-called Bruces Fire on the Fourth of July around 4 p.m.; and the Dena'ina people have lived on the Kenai Peninsula for thousands of years. But today, the group's Indigenous language isn't spoken as widely as it once was.

Creativity and Imagination: Man's ability to Create something uplifts the human spirit. Imagination fuels creativity. Imagination leads to the thoughts that become ideas — and thoughts become things. Inspiration from Nature: As Monarch butterflies need the milkweed plant, Evana Henri needs Wild Aspen from Colorado forests to make her Wild Aspen Exfoliators.. Wild Aspen is sustainably and responsibly sourced from Colorado forests. Harvesting is part of a forestry plan to prevent wildfires and revitalize forests. Sourcing Practices (from their website): Partner with local, reputable suppliers. Suppliers are government-approved and follow U.S. Forestry guidelines. These efforts support both the environment and forest health. The Origin of the Idea: Most sponges are synthetic, made from crude oil (non-renewable). Contain toxic chemicals and microplastics. Pollute water, soil, and the broader environment. Evana and her husband have scientific backgrounds. Motivated by love for the planet. Focused on solving the "Dirty Sponge Problem": About the Business: Sustainable sourcing of natural materials. Reducing global plastic pollution.

Committed to: Coming Soon: Turmeric-infused Wild Aspen Face & Body Exfoliator Check the FAQ and Our Story sections on their website for more details. Metaphor of Transformation: Like the Monarch butterfly's metamorphosis, wrapped in a jewel-green chrysalis with golden threads… Evana and her husband transform Wild Aspen into eco-friendly scrubs for the body and face.

This podcast concludes a 3-part series on Moab's creek corridors. The series includes restoration processes on the creeks, stream water gauge science, and this episode, fire fuels mitigation along Mill and Pack creeks flowing from the west side of the La Sal Mountains.

Tribes concerned about sacred places, wildlife habitat, and conservation complain they were left out of the decision-making process to get here.

We'll talk with experts from the timber industry about balancing production, land management, and economics.

Dr. Will Gulsby has been researching whitetail deer for almost 20 years. He is currently at Auburn University at the college of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment.
