A new report is warning of the potential loss in farm incomes in the billions of dollars if proposed fertilizer reductions come to pass. Meyers Norris Penny compiled the report which stated cutting fertilizer use to reduce on-farm emissions could cost growers nearly $48 billion over the next eight years. Karen Proud with Fertilizer Canada said under Canada's A Healthy Environment and a Healthy Economy, the Government of Canada is envisioning a 30 per cent absolute emissions reduction target for on-farm fertilizer use by the year 2030. Proud will explain how MNP used the European Union (EU) proposal of a 20 per cent reduction of fertilizer and what the implications would be if Canada adopted the EU model. There has been a significant reduction in oat production because of the hot, dry conditions on the prairies. As a result, we are seeing record prices for oats. It's good news for the farmers who might have oats to sell, but what are the other implications as buyers look to other countries for product? Scott Sheils with Grain Millers will discuss current prices and where they're likely to head into 2022 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode we take a look at the recent flurry of activity by the federal Liberal government on the climate change policy front. “The Federal Liberal Climate Action Formula: A Recipe for Failure”, Thursday March 25, 2021, with David Robertson from “Seniors for Climate Action Now” (SCAN!) On this episode we take a look at the recent flurry of activity by the federal Liberal government on the climate change policy front. In late 2020 and early 2021, the federal government announced a whole raft of climate-related initiatives including the Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act, A Hydrogen Strategy and a Nuclear Action Plan. To mark the fifth anniversary of the Paris Climate Accord, it also released an updated Climate Plan called “A Healthy Environment and a Healthy Economy”, on December 11, 2020. The Liberal Climate Plan is not a satisfying read, nor a very convincing one. To take stock what the Federal Liberals are up to on the climate change and energy policy fronts, I’m joined by David Roberson, chair of the Education Committee of Seniors for Climate Action Now (SCAN!) for a conversation about the March 2021 research paper we co-authored entitled “The Federal Liberal Climate Action Formula: A Recipe for Failure”.

In which we interview Anthony Flaccavento, organic farmer, author, activist, and local politician, about his sustainable practices to incorporate carbon, nitrogen, and other essential elements back into the depleted soil of his former tobacco farm in southwest Virginia. No-till agriculture not only sequesters carbon and nitrogen in the soil, it balances soil water content in both drought and flood times.

Today is the fifth anniversary of the Paris Climate accords and evidently the Liberal government wanted to make a splash. The federal government released an ambitious climate plan aimed at getting Canada on the path to meeting its Paris targets and a net zero economy. The Healthy Planet and Healthy Economy plan proposes spending $15-billion on 64 different measures, including building retrofits and electric vehicle incentives, along with raising the carbon tax, something the Liberals promised repeatedly NOT to do in the 2018 election. There's a ton more in the plan, so we brought on Sara Hastings-Simon, a researcher at the University of Calgary and the Payne Institute of Public Policy to walk us though it.

As protests continue to roil the nation, small businesses across the U.S. face three overlapping challenges: a pandemic, an economic crisis, and the explosive response to yet more killings of black people by police. Before the response to George Floyd's death, the situation for small businesses — particularly minority-owned small businesses — was already dire and the urgency to respond to the clear economic devastation of COVID-19 is only becoming more serious. In effort to directly address these critical needs in the state of California, the California Small Enterprise Task Force (CASE) is working to mobilize $1 billion to provide low-interest debt financing to the small businesses that are essential to local economies and livelihoods. Join this 60-minute session as we look at the state of California and specifically the new California Small Business Rebuilding Fund launched by the CASE Task Force as a case study for how a committed and diverse group of stakeholders can collaborate and design new solutions quickly — and how this model can be leveraged and replicated elsewhere. The session will be an opportunity to hear from a small group of partners who are creating new structures, building bridges between existing institutions, and moving capital quickly and responsibly to rebuild and shape a more inclusive recovery. Speakers include:Nicole Taylor, President & CEO, Silicon Valley Community FoundationLuz Urrutia, CEO, Opportunity FundSusan Mac Cormac, Corporate Partner at Morrison & FoersterElliott Donnelley, TPW Board Member & Founding General Partner of the White Sand Investor GroupFor those who would like to learn more before this session, please check out the following articles about the fund as it's being built.LA Times | Bay Area group raising $1 billion for small businesses hurt by virus, theft, curfewsSF Chronicle | High-powered Bay Area group aims to outdo DC in coronavirus help for small business

Allison Schrager joins Brian Anderson to discuss how risk propels economic growth and why government efforts that go too far to mitigate risk undermine America’s economic vitality. “Risk, for better and worse,” writes Schrager for City Journal, “is at the heart of economic growth, and successfully apportioning it—not avoiding it—is the key to prosperity.” While government has a role to play in managing risk, the U.S. economy has thrived by trusting markets to allocate it efficiently. Overly intrusive efforts to reduce risk in the economy—such as California’s new law regulating freelance or “gig” work—may prove counterproductive to workers of all incomes.

What would a sustainable, universally beneficial economy look like? "Like a doughnut," says Oxford economist Kate Raworth. In a stellar, eye-opening talk, she explains how we can move countries out of the hole -- where people are falling short on life's essentials -- and create regenerative, distributive economies that work within the planet's ecological limits.
Being diagnosed with a serious illness is a shock to the system, and treatment and recovery can mean major disruptions in a person’s life. But illness also takes millions of people out of the labor force every year and the quality of the care they receive can determine the extent to which this is a shock to the economy. IMF economist Nicola Pierri, with coauthors Anne-Line Koch Helsø and Adelina Yanyue Wang have published a research paper on The Economic Impact of Healthcare Quality. In this podcast, Pierri says low quality hospitals can wind up being very costly to both people and the economy at large.
