The growing concern about global environmental change and human impacts on the planet has led to the emergence of a broad field of study on the 'sustainability' of human societies. The term's common usage can be traced back to the advent of the Earth Summit in 1992 when 'sustainable development' was broadly embraced by the international community as an ostensibly win-win proposition for economic development, social inclusion, and ecological conservation. Yet both the natural science underpinnings and the social implications of a quest for sustainability have been diffuse.

The central chapters consider four key concepts crucial to sustainability: a) material and energy flows in consumption and production; b) technological interventions for a sustainable society; c) tipping points, and resilience in natural and social systems; and d) renewability and circularity in the economy.

The Congo is four times larger than France, it's bigger than India, it's bigger than Texas, Alaska, California & Montana combined - the equator runs right through it's middle and makes it the second largest rainforest on the globe - it's impossibly rich in resources, and desperately poor in economics. In those 13 years of private ownership, Leopold oversaw potentially one of the most brutal regimes of extraction the world has ever known. The population was estimated to have halved in those 13 years, more than 10 million deaths. It was an exploit in mass slavery, mass death, bodily mutilation and mass extraction. Ivory and wild rubber were in high demand, and so under the guise of media manipulation and PR mastery, Leopold convinced the world that these goods were in fact being traded with, rather than extracted from, the Congo. The horror, however, could only be concealed for so long. A fella by the name of Ed Morell who worked for a shipping company in Liverpool noticed the bounty of ivory and rubber arriving from the Congo, with only men and arms making the journey back. His suspicion grew, he found accounts from missionaries and others who had been, and mounted a campaign to undermine the constant wall of propaganda Leopold had financed.In 1908, the Belgium state purchased the Congo off Leopold… where the country remained a colony of Belgium until 1960. And for a myriad of reasons, for which we address in the podcast, the Congo today is still on the back foot. Kinshasa, the capital city already has a bigger population than Paris, and is projected to be as much as 40,000,000 by 2050. The Congo today is among the most resource rich nations on earth, but among the least developed. It still attracts the same predation for extraction as it ever has, although all together less forceful and less violentThe man I speak with on the podcast today wrote the definitive history of this period. His name is Adam Hochschild, he's an author, journalist and historian and wrote in 1998, 'King Leopold's Ghost'. 00:00 Congo's Dark History & Adam Hochschild03:03 Leopold's Brutal Regime09:02 Modern Parallels of Exploitation12:11 The Unique Case of King Leopold14:58 The Mechanics of Control & Media Manipulation20:45 Campaigning Against Atrocities: The Legacy of Morrell34:22 Colonialism and Forced Labor: The Belgian Congo36:16 The Rubber Boom and Its Consequences38:09 Criticism Of The Book & Congolese Resistance42:57 Nationalism and Colonialism: Morel's Perspective44:48 The Impact of Colonialism on Modern Nations47:17 Geography and Development: The Congo's Challenges49:51 Natural Resources and Corruption52:27 The Future of the Congo: A Grim Outlook57:22 Serendipity(There was an technical difficulty right at the end of the conversation, which is why it cuts off) Consider leaving a review on whichever platform you're listening on!

Hard tech isn't flashy. It's not fast. And it definitely isn't easy. But for the founders who choose this path, the payoff isn't just financial—it's deeply transformational. It's about reshaping entire industries, one chemical reaction or microalgae strain at a time.In this episode, we're joined by two scientists-turned-founders who are doing just that—building companies with the potential to change how we power, produce, and grow.Corey Tyree is the founder and CEO of Trillium Renewable Chemicals, based in Knoxville. He's raised over $38 million to bring bio-based chemicals to market—starting with acrylonitrile, the unsung hero behind everything from wind turbine blades to LEGO bricks. Corey's building a commercial plant in Texas, leading a team through the high-stakes world of scale-up, regulation, and investor expectations—while staying laser-focused on execution.Dr. Nicholas Sokol, founder and CEO of Algaeo, is tackling a different frontier: agriculture. With a PhD in Geography and a DIY approach to prototyping, Nick is creating biofertilizers using microalgae to regenerate soil health and improve crop yields. He's worn every hat—from scientist to engineer to solo salesman—and he's doing it all with a 3D printer in the basement and a whole lot of grit.Why This Matters:This episode is for builders. For researchers with an itch to go commercial. For anyone who's ever been told their idea was “too hard,” “too early,” or “too weird.”Corey and Nick open up about the reality of taking science out of the lab and into the field—from raising capital and navigating regulations to resisting “shiny object syndrome” and staying grounded in the mission.Key Takeaways:Hard tech doesn't get a version 2.0. Safety, reliability, and execution have to be right from day one.Fundraising is performance art. Communicating complex ideas to non-technical investors is its own entrepreneurial skill set.Shiny objects can kill your momentum. Focus is a superpower—especially when building something that takes years to prove out.Prototypes don't have to be pretty. Scrappy, basement-built hardware can still deliver world-class results.Customer feedback isn't optional. It's the north star that guides product development, even in highly technical fields.You're not just building a product. You're building trust, infrastructure, and—hopefully—a legacy.Why It Matters to You:You don't have to be in a lab coat to appreciate this one. If you're building anything that takes time, patience, and belief—this episode is your reminder that hard doesn't mean impossible.Because if it wasn't hard…it wouldn't be worth doing.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Listen to all episodes of the Big Ideas Welcome podcast, available now on your favorite streaming platforms, YouTube, and at bigideaswelcome.com.

Homeland security is rarely just a matter of the homeland; it involves the circulation and multiplication of policing practices across borders. Though the term "homeland security" is closely associated with the United States, Israel is credited with first developing this all-encompassing approach to domestic surveillance and territorial control. Today, it is a central node in the sprawling global homeland security industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars. And in the wake of the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, India emerged as a major growth market. Known as "India's 9/11" or simply "26/11," the attacks sparked significant public pressure to adopt "modern" homeland security approaches. Since 2008, India has become not only the single largest buyer of Israeli conventional weapons, but also a range of other surveillance technology, police training, and security expertise. Pairing insights from science and technology studies with those from decolonial and postcolonial theory, Fabricating Homeland Security: Police Entanglements Across India and Palestine/Israel (Stanford UP, 2024) traces 26/11's political and policy fallout, concentrating on the efforts of Israel's homeland security industry to advise and equip Indian city and state governments. Through a focus on the often unseen and overlooked political struggles at work in the making of homeland security, Rhys Machold details how homeland security is a universalizing project, which seeks to remake the world in its image, and tells the story of how claims to global authority are fabricated and put to work. Rhys Machold is Senior Lecturer in the School of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Glasgow. His work focuses on imperialism, colonialism, and empire, working from a transnational approach. He is an editor at Critical Studies on Security and an editorial board member at International Studies Review. He held research and teaching appointments at York University (Canada), the Danish Institute for International Studies, the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, and Wilfrid Laurier University. Deniz Yonucu is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Geography, Politics, and Sociology at Newcastle University. Her work focuses on policing and security, surveillance, left-wing and anti-colonial resistance, memory, and racism. Her monograph Police, Provocation, Politics: Counterinsurgency in Istanbul is the winner of the 2023 Anthony Leeds Prize for the best book in urban anthropology, awarded by the Critical Urban Anthropology Section of the American Anthropological Association.

Surficial life at these springs has been studied for decades, but this is the first investigation that looks at the deep subsurface life. This is of interest as a Mars analogue site for deep subsurface life on Mars.

The Geography of Wrath Part Two Before the LORD Destroyed Sodom Last week, we looked at The Geography of Wrath, a preface to this lesson on the danger of the last watch of the night. “Lot lifted up his eyes and saw all the valley of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere—this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah—like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go to Zoar.” (Ge 13:10) When Lot “lifted up his eyes,” he saw prophetically. Before their destruction, the five cities of the valley enjoyed an Edenic-like climate and prosperity, yet the prophetic phrase “lifted up his eyes” predicts a restoration of that area, which sits in the Arava. Revelation predicts a great miracles of the two witnesses, which helps us to understand "Sodom and Egypt": "And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which mystically is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified." (Re 11:8) What Sodom and Egypt have in common is that those who were saved and set on a path of righteousness (Lot and the Israelites in the wilderness) looked back at what at enslaved them as more to be desired than the Garden of Eden, the authentic Promised Land, that lay before them if they would walk in their salvation. When the bodies of the two witnesses are caught up from Jerusalem, it is a witness to be understood as a last warning to believers who, in those last days, continue to cling to the cargoes of Babylon, who persist in begging to go "by way of Zoar to Egypt" instead of repenting and returning to the righteous walk of salvation epitomized by Avraham. The night is far spent by then. The commercial success of the five cities lured Lot in. The deception was that its fruitfulness “like the Garden” was to be desired over the fruitfulness of the stars promised to Avraham. Lot's wife preferred the deception of luxury with wickedness over the promise of good gifts from above.The Midrash concerning Sodom details how travelers were lured in, then maimed or killed and their goods confiscated. “When morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, ‘Up, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city.'” (Ge 19:15) The sun had risen over the earth when Lot came to Zoar. Then the LORD rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven, and He overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground. But his wife, from behind him, looked back, and she became a pillar of salt. Now Abraham arose early in the morning and went to the place where he had stood before the LORD; and he looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the valley, and he saw, and behold, the smoke of the land ascended like the smoke of a furnace. (Ge 19:24-28) Before Adonai destroyed Sodom, he sent warning of the wrath to come. Lot was aware of the blessings promised to Avraham, but he was also aware of the righteous life required for such eternal blessings. Lot chose precarious salvation over a life of obedience and teaching his children after him: “For I have chosen him, so that he may command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing righteousness and justice, so that the LORD may bring upon Abraham what He has spoken about him.” (Ge 18:19) Lot was troubled by the wickedness of Sodom, but not enough to forfeit living in it: “and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men…” (2 Pe 2:7) It took the wrath of Adonai to remove him, not to abundant life, but bare salvation. “Insignificance” is the meaning of the small city Zoar in which Lot requested to live, and so was his contribution to the Kingdom of Adonai compared to Avraham. Avraham viewed the valley of Sodom and saw the smoke of the cities ascending like the smo...

Homeland security is rarely just a matter of the homeland; it involves the circulation and multiplication of policing practices across borders. Though the term "homeland security" is closely associated with the United States, Israel is credited with first developing this all-encompassing approach to domestic surveillance and territorial control. Today, it is a central node in the sprawling global homeland security industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars. And in the wake of the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, India emerged as a major growth market. Known as "India's 9/11" or simply "26/11," the attacks sparked significant public pressure to adopt "modern" homeland security approaches. Since 2008, India has become not only the single largest buyer of Israeli conventional weapons, but also a range of other surveillance technology, police training, and security expertise. Pairing insights from science and technology studies with those from decolonial and postcolonial theory, Fabricating Homeland Security: Police Entanglements Across India and Palestine/Israel (Stanford UP, 2024) traces 26/11's political and policy fallout, concentrating on the efforts of Israel's homeland security industry to advise and equip Indian city and state governments. Through a focus on the often unseen and overlooked political struggles at work in the making of homeland security, Rhys Machold details how homeland security is a universalizing project, which seeks to remake the world in its image, and tells the story of how claims to global authority are fabricated and put to work.

The Geography of Wrath The grapes of wrath are perhaps one of the most terrifying passages in Scripture: Who is this who comes from Edom, ??With dyed garments from Botzrah, ??This One who is glorious in His apparel, ??Traveling in the greatness of His strength?— ?“I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” ?Why is Your apparel red, ??And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress? ?“I have trodden the winepress alone, ??And from the peoples no one was with Me. ??For I have trodden them in My anger, ??And trampled them in My fury; ??Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments, ??And I have stained all My robes. For the day of vengeance is in My heart, ??And the year of My redeemed has come." (Is 63:1-4) Why would Yeshua come from Edom and Botzrah? Out of many reasons (because of Edom's modern identity), one Torah prophecy-template is that it retraces part of the route of the exodus from Egypt and the southern journeys to the Promised Land. Yeshua went to the wilderness to be tested in his first coming, and he overcame in forty days of testing what the Israelites took forty years to do. The difference in the Greater Exodus is that the slaves in exile will come from many nations, not just Egypt. It is the geography of Edom that ties it all together, for it is an ancient commercial intersection of the world. In the Shabbat livestream, we'll look at maps to help decipher the prophecy, but we'll do the best we can here in the newsletter with words. Edom and Israel present in conflict in the geography of the South. The region is separated by the north/south running Great Rift Valley in which two great tectonic plate continually rub against one another and move the earth. In his appearance on the Mount of Olives, Yeshua's feet cause a great earthquake right along this valley from Jerusalem all the way to the Red Sea in the South. In times of Israel's spiritual awakening, Israel/Judah controlled the South from Tamar (Ovot/Oboth) all the way to Etzion-Geber (Eilat). It is a vital trade route between East and West, North and South, from ancient times. In times of Judah's apostasy, Edom controlled it, often in trade treaties with powers such as (first) Egypt, then Assyria, Babylon, Greece, and Rome. Their relatives are the mighty merchants the Nabateans, who controlled trade over the land of the South much as the Phoenicians controlled maritime trade. Esau/Edom was a “man of the field,” controlled by the nefesh, or soul, the beast nature. The most cunning beast of the field is the serpent (land) or his counterpart in the water, the crocodile. These two, the serpent and beast, are in league in the Revelation, and will be judged together, the authority of the serpent wielded by the beast. For a review of these principles, see “A Concise History of the Beast” on YouTube, Workbook Four: The Scarlet Harlot and the Crimson Thread, and Workbook Two: The Seven Abominations of the Wicked Lamp. When Yeshua comes from Edom, the perfect man has subdued both the scarlet beast and his source authority, the serpent. His march is a way of “splitting the sea” in the sight of all nations to make a way of salvation for his exiles and the nations: "When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations…"(Ezek 39:27) The Jewish sages parse the verses of the Exodus that describe the splitting of the waters of the Reed Sea to imply that the waters of every nation were split at exactly the same time so that the miracle could be viewed by all nations (another lesson!). From even before the time of the Exodus, Egypt the serpent and Edom the beast collaborated in harvesting copper [nechoshet] from the South. The Hebrew word for serpent is nachash, sharing a root with copper, which is plentiful in the South.

现实和虚拟的边界在哪?我还能否相信被赋予的认同感,和被消费的爱?一篇发表在《自然-通讯》上的研究表明:人每天会产生超过6000个”想法“(https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-17255-9)。你有没有想过,这些想法有多少是你自己产生的,又有多少是你所接收到信息赋予你的?你有没有听过高水平的辩论赛,辩手的一席话似乎就足以让观众的想法180度转向。那么什么是真实?为什么宗教的世界观对于信徒来说切实存在,而对于无神论者又难以共情?对于一个人来说是真实的东西,另一个人看来却仿佛可笑?你有没有喜欢上过一个电影、动漫、游戏中的人物,觉得他们就在自己身边?或者对一个品牌产生好感甚至忠诚,觉得这是自己向往的生活方式?这又和信徒有什么区别?现实与虚构的边界似乎没有我们想象的那么清晰。而这些思辨似乎都会指向一个问题,”相信“是什么?本期节目,我们有幸邀请到了弗吉尼亚理工大学宗教与文化系副教授,倪湛舸老师对谈,来和她一起从人文学者的角度聊聊现实和虚构的边界在哪里?我们又是如何“相信”的?本期你会听到倪湛舸弗吉尼亚理工大学宗教与文化系副教授芝加哥大学宗教与文学博士、前哈佛大学神学院客座研究员著有学术专著*The Pagan Writes Back*,并创作出版过多部诗集、随笔集,以及历史小说《莫须有》近期研究关注中国宗教与网络小说李天宇大白媒介研究者(主要兴趣:科技史、动画与电子游戏)李天域Jack主业有三家公司,主要在服装行业,目前年营收超过千万在这段对话中,我们从事实信念、虚构想象、宗教信仰这三种经常叠加在一起的”相信“是什么开始聊起,聊到了:宗教和科学控制人们认识世界的方式?商业、品牌、文化作品等如何通过“相信”来控制你的钱包、劳动、认知和爱?资本主义的新精神是什么?为什么情绪变成了商业追逐的新目标?我们在购买的到底是商品,还是某种想象?节目的最后,倪教授探讨了修真小说所反映的中国人对于”升级“的痴迷可能是导致内卷的原因之一,以及虚构背后人们渴望善恶有报的愿景所具有的真实的力量。本期节目对我们来说完全可以用醍醐灌顶来形容,相信你也一定能有所收获。那就请你和我们一起加入这场关于真实、虚构,以及”相信“的游戏吧!结语天宇:倪老师一直是我非常敬仰的学者,她总是能用精准的语言把复杂的理论和概念解释清楚,相信这一点你也一定感同身受。就像我们在节目里说的,尽管我们的业余时间、我们的理想和爱或许都已经成为了被资本剥削的对象,但我们仍然有无法被剥夺的情动,这是无比珍贵的。我正在制作(录制和书写中)的,和你正在消费的,都是一档经过封装的节目。它固然需要在数字内容的海洋中与无数节目争夺流量,但也正因为此,我们聊天时许多快乐与思考的瞬间才能够超越当时的时空和我们自身的存在,能有一些和你产生共鸣的可能。因为这真实存在的力量来源于我们在虚拟空间的交互,所以我们仍然可以选择相信。本期节目制作王一山(制片人)在洋(节目剪辑)Alan(节目运营)TIANYU2FM的理念:每期对谈有价值的声音我们是天宇和天域,是挚友,也是一起求知的伙伴。这是一档为了开拓眼界,走出自我局限而设立的播客,我们通过与人的对谈来与未知的领域及知识互动。主持人简介天域|杰激(声音偏高):服装电商公司创始人、UnDeR20合伙人(小红书:[李天域Jack](https://www.xiaohongshu.com/user/profile/595aebbe82ec396233ef3a72))天宇|大白(声音偏低):从事中日流行文化与媒介研究(文章见于澎湃新闻私家历史、网易新闻历史频道等)扩展阅读(由倪湛舸教授提供)关于模仿、宗教信仰、玄学Kendall Walton, Mimesis as Make-Believe: On the Foundations of the Representational ArtsNeil Van Leeuwen, Religion as Make-Believe: A Theory of Belief, Imagination, and Group IdentityTheodor Adorno, The Stars Down to EarthJohn and Jean Comaroff, “Ocuult Economies, Revisited”Christopher Patridge, “Occulture and Everyday Enchantment”关于创意资本主义Brian Moeran and Timothy de Waal Malefyt ed., Magical Capitalism: Enchantment, Spells, and Occult Practices in Contemporary EconomiesGuiseppe Cocco and Barbara Szaniecki ed., Creative Capitalism, Multitudinous Creativity: Radicalities and Alterities 关于小说、虚构性、历史小说Gallagher, Catherine.

Cardinals broadcaster Chip Caray's idea: ditch geography, reimagine MLB divisions by economy

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5   JUPITER, Fla. -- Cardinals broadcaster Chip Caray lobbed a compelling question into the conversation he and other members of the media had this past week with Tony Clark, chief executive of the Major League Baseball Players' Association.   Caray, a longtime presence on baseball broadcasts and third-generation Caray in that role, wondered what it would look like if Major League Baseball ditched geographic divisions and reimagined itself along economic lines. The divisions would be organized by market size, not region. Tampa Bay would be free from competing against the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox for a division playoff spot. The Colorado Rockies wouldn't have to keep pace with the wallets in the National League West, if they were in the Plaines Division with Kansas City.   It's one way to open up more spots in the postseason for markets that are increasingly seeing those routes erased.   Expansion is going to make such tinkering possible.   Intrigued, Best Podcast in Baseball host and St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold asked Caray to expand on his question in this brand new episode -- and much much much more.   This is the 80th year of a Caray calling baseball, and that puts their family up there with some of the longest tenured in the history of the game in any role, any level, or any capacity. And there is a fourth generation on the way. FanDuel Sports Network picked up the Cardinals' Spring Breakout game on March 14 for prospects, but the prospects won't only be on the field. Chip's son, Stefan, will join him in the booth to call the game and offer thoughts on many of the players he's seen before from calling minor-league games.   Prospects for the future of baseball, prospects for the future of playing baseball, and prospects for the future of calling baseball -- all in one 30 minute conversation under the son at the Cardinals player development complex in Jupiter.   The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
