Podcasts about hazards

"Safe and effective." This is the mantra of those in favor of vaccinations, who claim that they save lives. But, there is mounting evidence that they are neither safe nor effective. Most of us simply haven't been privy to the facts. That is about to change. Magdalene Taylor is the Director and Editor of The Informed Parent (TiP), a journal to encourage an informed vaccination decision based on a wide range of information. Magda was once a believer in vaccines until she came across some literature that gave her pause. Now she equips parents with information on the hazards associated with so-called immunizations. This episode focuses on many relevant topics including how few doctors speak out about vaccination risks, how little they actually know about vaccines, and how the entire medical industry is captured by the pharmaceutical industry. Magda also shares books, reference materials, and more to empower parents, along with suggestions for how to manage well-meaning relatives and friends (and medical professionals) who insist that any vaccine hesitancy is problematic.

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/3LrIEG26m78War's environmental legacies disproportionately burden the civilian populations left behind. While research focuses on combatant exposures, civilians face chronic contamination from heavy metals, chemical residues, unexploded ordnance, and asbestos, often exacerbated by disrupted infrastructure and psychological trauma. Framed through the exposome, this lecture highlights the need for greater research and policy focus on these long-term, low-level exposures and their impact on civilian health, advocating for remediation, care, and environmental justice.This lecture was recorded by Dr Ian Mudway on 14th October 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, LondonIan is Visiting Professor of Environmental Health.He is a senior lecturer in the School of Public Health at Imperial, a member of the MRC Centre for Environment and Health; MRC & Asthma UK Centre in Allergic Mechanisms of Asthma and the NIHR-PHE Health Protection Research Units in Environmental Exposures and Health and Chemical and Radiation Threats and Hazards.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/toxic-warGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

In this Garage Edition of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy Cordeaux tackles the week’s most eyebrow-raising moments — from Anthony Albanese’s bizarre “Joy Division” T-shirt scandal to woke self-censorship, Adelaide’s population boom, and the true cost of Halloween decorations. He also shines a light on beach safety, government waste on defibrillator rollouts, and an explosive Four Corners investigation into child abuse networks. It’s thoughtful, fearless, and classic Cordeaux — saying what others won’t. Topics in this ep; Australia spent $27.6 billion online last quarter Gold and silver prices drop — “October crashes” revisited Prime Minister Anthony Albanese wears a “Joy Division” T-shirt with disturbing Nazi origins Woke meltdown: UK councillor apologises for saying “born and bred in England” Adelaide now Australia’s fastest-growing city — is bigger really better? Halloween decorations harming birds via fake spider web sprays Surf Life Saving report: 154 drownings, none between the flags Defibrillator rollout criticised — 65% of people say they wouldn’t know how to use one Remembering Kerry Packer’s life-saving $20 million donation to equip ambulances Upcoming Four Corners exposé on child exploitation networks in childcare Celebrating the Rising Sun Hotel’s 180th anniversary Trivia and birthdays: Brigitte Bardot, Bill Gates, Julia Roberts, Jonas Salk, Dennis Lillee Reflection on why independent media matters See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vet Ruth Brownlee is one of the Clinical Directors at St Peters Vets. Speaking to Mike Waddington, she comments on the Competition and Markets Authority's interim report into transparency; she welcomes the report and gives some advice (reproduced below) to ask up front about costs and discuss your budget too; 'contexualised care' is about the patient and the client's circumstances. Ruth also talks about autumn hazards, from acorn and conker ingestion, to the more serious mushroom digestion - hot cross buns too! Some food people eat - like garlic - are not good for animals. She talks about anxiety medications in fireworks season (and others like separation anxiety). Owners need to be aware and vigilant and should call their vet for advice if you suspect something! Ruth's advice on coosts: My general thoughts about vet fees and advice to pet owners; Don't be worried about asking for costs up front, we would much rather have an open conversation about cost and possible solutions. Let us know your budget or if there are financial constraints. In certain situations we may be able to provide a variety diagnostic or treatment options with different costs (with the knowledge that the lower cost options may not result in as fast a diagnosis/treatment resolution etc) Look at options that will save money such as joining a health care plan for routine care if that suits your needs. For new pet owners - look into the ongoing costs for a pet before taking one on, Investigate the cost of routine care but also potential costs if your pet becomes ill. From our point of view at St Peters Vets we always try to provide estimates particularly for any patient requiring hospitalisation or surgical procedures at the time of admit. Accurate estimates are fairly straight forward to produce for surgical procedures and day patients but can be trickier for ongoing complex medical cases that can require a large variety of diagnostic tests so we try to keep owners updated with costs.

We're joined by author Gareth Dace to dive into Tottenham Hotspur's most formative decade. From Keith Burkinshaw's progressive blueprint and the revolutionary arrivals of Ardiles and Villa, to Archibald and Crooks igniting White Hart Lane, the sale of Chris Waddle to Marseille, Clive Allen's 49-goal season, and that deafening 1984 UEFA Cup shootout, this is Spurs in the 80s in full color. We get into Irving Scholar's vision, the PLC era, Hummel, the Shelf stand rebuild, hooliganism, and the Alan Sugar vs Terry Venables fallout. Gareth's new book Hotshot Tottenham: Spurs in the 80s – Hoddle, Hummel and Hazards charts the glory and the chaos. He's also launched a nostalgia pod, Is Gascoigne Gonna Have a Crack?, with Darren Anderton as the first guest. If you love Tottenham history, this one's catnip. Learn more about your ad choices.

https://jo.my/vkgjpd Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: How To Report An Incident Properly If something goes wrong in your facility — whether it's a near miss, property damage, or an injury - how quickly and clearly you report it can make a massive difference. This process isn't just about paperwork. It's about preventing repeat incidents, protecting your team, and keeping the facility running safely and smoothly. A strong Safety Culture starts with strong communication. When incidents get reported the right way, everyone wins. The issue gets addressed quickly. Hazards get removed. And most importantly, people stay safe. That's the point. Here are a few ways to keep your incident reporting process transparent and compelling: Report it immediately. If something happens —even if it seems small —report it right away. Don't wait until the end of your shift. Don't assume someone else will say something. Reporting delays can worsen the situation or cause details to be lost. Speak up fast. Be specific. Make sure your report answers the question: Who was involved? What exactly happened? When and where did it happen? How did it occur? If it helps, think like a detective. The clearer and complete your report is, the easier it'll be to take the right action. Document the scene—if it's safe to do so. If you can safely snap a few photos or jot down notes, do it. This process helps capture what happened before anything gets cleaned up or moved. Visuals can go a long way in understanding the whole picture. Just make sure it's safe before you do anything. Know the reporting system. Every facility has its own way of doing things. It could be a paper form or a digital tool. You could notify your supervisor first. Know the process. If you're not sure, ask before something happens—don't wait until you're in the middle of a situation. Always follow up. Reporting an incident is step one. But don't stop there. Check to ensure your Safety Coordinator or Maintenance has taken action. Did the hazard get removed? Was the issue corrected? Following up shows you're part of the solution—and it helps prevent future problems. As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility. Proper reporting isn't about getting someone in trouble. It's about learning from what went wrong and making the warehouse a safer place for everyone. One missed report can leave a risk in place. But one accurate, timely report? That could be the reason someone makes it home safely. And if you're ever unsure whether something should be reported—do it anyway. Overreporting is always safer than silence. Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time—have a great week, and STAY SAFE! #Safety #SafetyCulture #IncidentReporting #RootCauseAnalysis #FacilitySafety #ReportItRight #SafetyFirst

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the intriguing world of near-Earth asteroids, the evolution of our universe, and the remarkable discovery of a rogue planet experiencing unprecedented growth.Invisible Asteroids Near Venus: A Hidden ThreatRecent computer simulations published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics have raised alarms about a population of near-Earth asteroids that remain undetectable due to their proximity to Venus. These Venusian co-orbital asteroids, which share an orbital resonance with Venus, could pose a collision risk to Earth within a few thousand years. The study's lead author, Valerio Carumba, explains the challenges of observing these asteroids, as they are obscured by the Sun's glare. With a size of around 300 metres, these asteroids could create impact craters several kilometres wide, highlighting the need for dedicated space missions to monitor this potential threat.The Universe's Evolution: New Insights from the Epoch of ReionizationAstronomers have made significant strides in understanding the universe's early days, revealing that it was warmer than previously thought before the first stars ignited. Research based on observations from the Murchison Wide Field Array in Western Australia indicates that the gas between galaxies was heated around 800 million years after the Big Bang, contradicting earlier theories of a cold universe. This heating, likely driven by early X-ray sources, set the stage for the epoch of reionization, which transformed the cosmos from opaque to transparent, allowing light to travel freely.A Richie Planet's Remarkable Growth SpurtIn a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified a rogue planet, catalogued as char 11 oh 7 minus 7626, that is not bound to any star and is growing at an astonishing rate of 6 billion tonnes of gas and dust per second. Located approximately 600 light years away in the constellation Chameleon, this planet challenges conventional notions of planetary stability. Observations reveal that its accretion rate fluctuates dramatically, highlighting the dynamic processes at play in the formation of rogue planets and blurring the lines between planets and stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstronomy and Astrophysicshttps://www.aanda.org/Astrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Invisible Asteroids Near Venus: A Hidden ThreatThe Universe's Evolution: New Insights from the Epoch of ReionizationA Richie Planet's Remarkable Growth Spurt(00:00) The threat posed by invisible asteroids near Venus(10:30) New findings on the universe's warm early phase(19:00) Discovery of a rogue planet growing at record rates(27:15) Science Robert: 2025 Nobel Prize announcements

Vancouver police are releasing images of a suspect connected to a series of multiple stabbings that occurred along the city's iconic Yaletown seawall on Friday. Many people pulled out pots and pans this weekend – maybe even today to cook thanksgiving feasts – but this comes as there are increased warnings about the so called forever chemicals found in non stick cook ware. As debate heats up over housing rights in British Columbia, a coalition of tenant groups is raising alarm about what they call a dangerous rollback of protections for some of the province's most vulnerable residents.

The Defense Department Inspector General has found that the military services are not properly overseeing maintenance of privatized housing units. According to the recent investigation, military housing officials did not correctly perform any of the inspections the watchdog observed inspectors skipped critical safety checks, including making sure windows opened in case of an emergency and ensuring electric outlets were free of electrical hazards. The military housing offices did not have enough staff or equipment to comply with oversight requirements. Federal News Network's Anastasia Obis spoke to Christopher DePerro, Program Director at the inspector general office, about what his team has found.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
