Is the narrative we hear on climate change rather one sided? Should we lend the mic to the people mainly affected by the climate crisis? However, could it be more beneficial to us all if we spread the word on climate optimism rather than using the word crisis? In this podcast episode, Alexandra chats with Shoummo & Maesha from Green & Beyond Mag about how they started their multimedia platform in their native Bangladesh. How Green & Beyond Mag came before they actually got married and the ups & downs on that journey. The couple talks about how Bangladesh was the first country (in 2009) to submit their goals to the United Nations regarding the climate action plan and how South Asians are expected to lose five years from their life expectancy if current high pollution levels persist.Tune in and get insight on why it is important to use a positive narrative speaking about these issues and that if we keep educating ourselves we can do more, and that all individual actions matter.

Nicola Paltrinieri is a Professor of Risk Assessment at the NTNU Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, and leads the NTNU Team Hydrogen. He joins us to discuss the complexities of hydrogen safety and its role in the energy transition. The conversation starts off by bringing up an earlier podcast episode. In episode 44, Professor Robert Warren Howarth, co-author of the controversial paper "How Green is Blue Hydrogen?" was a guest. Professor Paltrinieri was part of a comment team that aimed to provide a more balanced view of that paper, and helps us understand the nuances of the debate surrounding the paper, emphasizing the importance of data accuracy, context, and diversification in investment. Following the blue hydrogen discussion, the conversation shifts to hydrogen safety. Professor Paltrinieri explores the complexity of hydrogen safety, emphasizing that it involves multiple factors beyond just combustion and explosion risks. He addresses the challenges of working with an emerging technology where operational experience is limited, leading to uncertainties in statistical analysis. Additionally, he discusses the interaction between human factors and technology, and the need for effective inspection and maintenance strategies. Also, check out research centers HYDROGENi, HyValue, and the Norwegian research school on hydrogen and hydrogen-based fuels, HySchool.

Robert Warren Howarth is a professor and earth system scientist at Cornell University (USA), and is also member of the Climate Action Council appointed by the State of New York. In 2021, Howarth and Stanford Professor Mark Z. Jacobson, stirred up controversy with their paper, "How Green is Blue Hydrogen?" Their study found that the production of blue hydrogen results in significant greenhouse gas emissions, both carbon dioxide and unburned fugitive methane, which is a major contributor to climate change. Even with carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology, the emissions associated with blue hydrogen are still substantial, argue Howarth and Jacobson. The peer-reviewed paper sparked a lot of reactions. Among others, researchers here at NTNU later published a Comment on “How green is blue hydrogen?”, questioning Howarth and Jacobson's methods for computing the energy balance of blue hydrogen plants, and saying the assumed methane leakage in the United States cannot represent all natural gas and blue hydrogen value chains globally. Has the dust now settled? We sat down and had a chat with Professor Robert W. Howarth, to find out. --- Next week, we are organizing the NTNU Energy Transition Week 2023 in Trondheim, Norway. The week features our annual conference, energy transition-related networking events, a town hall assembly, and expert-led workshops with different focus areas. Are you a young professional and want to accelerate the energy transition in Norway. If yes, then join me, Dr. Julius Wesche, on March 20th for the first face-to-face meeting of the Green Energy shifters network (www.greenenergyshifters.no).

It's a new podcast on the Warriors 24 Podcast Network. Brandon Cadiz debuts the inaugural episode of Strength in Numbers. Brandon covers the Warriors rebounding and defending woes- Marcus Smart played great defense on Draymond Green, which opened up Robert Williams III's presence in the paint. Steve Kerr pulled the plug too early on GP2 and Looney. Cadiz analyzes Steve Kerr's decision and how playing multiple defenses and fading the zone for durations will be crucial to tying up the series. Draymond Green needs to come out as an enforcer. How Green's three-pointer and floaters hit will open up his defensive intensity and the Warriors' defense as a whole.   Jonathan Kuminga is the talk of the town. Looking back at Steve Kerr's history of deploying a secret weapon: Draymond for David Lee and Iguodala for Andrew Bogut.   What happens if Curry is hobbled in game 4? Brandon says Draymond, Klay, and Poole need to help Wiggins in secondary scoring. A lineup change, Doubling Jaylen Brown, and much more!

Welcome back to The Fertility Podcast, yes it's been a while since our main series was published and with this one, we're going Behind The Scenes of IVF and in our first episode, we're starting a conversation about the IVF sector's green credentials. We hear from locum Embryologist Dani Smale, who started her training at CARE Fertility London where she undertook small research projects, including looking at the environmental impact of IVF, mainly plastic use. We also talk to Annemette Arndal-Lauritzen, the CEO of the European Sperm Bank about the Communication on Progress (COP) report and talk about how whilst their primary focus is on creating healthy babies, they also want to make sure that current, as well as future generations of donor children, grow up in a healthy world and that their families are on an equal footing with any other type of family.  You will also hear a snippet from Dr Emma Saunders and  Ricard Ledin da Rosa, Sustainability Specialist at Vitrolife.  What was discussed:  With almost 2.5 million IVF cycles completed around the world every year and the number is constantly rising - can IVF go green?  It's possible that per cycle / per consumer portion of greenhouse gas emissions could be higher than any other healthcare-related procedure Dani Smale study with Care Fertility in 2018 looking at the number of cycles and the average number of different consumables for each procedure 69,500 consumables about 22,800 pieces of packaging Difficult for a city-based clinic to recycle.  Lab mentality - just get another one, rather than recycling  NHS Labs are much more conscientious in thinking about costs  Using reusable caps , but not that many units use them.  People are worried about infection control so they use disposables.  Repurposing = Glassware might be used in arts and crafts, schools, Girl Guides  The Sustainable Development Goals from the UN to choose which applied to the European Sperm Bank  - 3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_Development_Goal_3 (Good Health and Well-being), 5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_Development_Goal_5 (Gender Equality), 16 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_Development_Goal_16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions)   Recycle tanks  - don't use dry ice as it requires a lot of plastic Use large tanks that can be recycled and optimised for usage  Aiming to become zero neutral in 2025 in 2022 - attempting to reduce by 50% by minimising as much as possible and for the rest, they are offsetting, by planting trees.  Importance of working with a company that takes pride in protecting the environment  - perception this gives to patients. We talked about the International IVF Initiative and a session they held called ‘How Green is your IVF' which you can watch https://ivfmeeting.com/products/how-green-is-your-ivf (here ) Get in touch:  We really want to hear your thoughts on whether this matters to you.

We're going behind the scenes once again with I3, to hear more about the highly popular topic, How Green is your IVF, discussing the common practice of single use products, products and the overuse of packaging. Speakers: Dani Smale, Roisin O'Raghallaigh, Rikard Ledin da Rosa - Vitrolife, Chip CalcagniWhat was discussed: Discussion about choices of products used and how companies look at how they can become more sustainable and holding the manufacturers to task to come up with innovations How clinics can make sustainable choices but unless they can use better tools and products the issue is never going to end. Taking the issue to the larger companies before the clinics - will that cause a huge delay? Importance of having this conversation with the big companies as they all have a green agenda. How shareholders are demanding objectives are met. The waste from plastic items used and unnecessary packaging that is used to keep things sterile. Can this be reduced? Paperwork that comes with products - could extra material be reduced. Vitrolife - talking about what sustainability means. How to bring consciousness of sustainability up in the decision-making matrix? Could putting pressure on the suppliers help? How the sustainability specialist at Vitro Life position came about - how Rikard's role is to speak with top management to make these decisions. To watch the full session go here In this second part of our chat we invited Rikard Ledin da Rosa from Vitrolife to join us again in a different timezone and Anna Gorbunova who Giles met on Linked In and invited her to the webinar. What was discussed: Whether there is a deadline for when clinics need to improve their sustainability Movements within the investor markets - who needs reports about issues such as CO2Sustainability reports expected Interactions that could be done at home - to reduce clinic visitsHow Clinical aspects from egg retrieval to monitoring of follicular stimulation needs to be discussed further. Could there be more AI involvement, remote ultrasounds? Watch session 2 here Follow us on our socials: TwitterFacebook InstagramYou Tube

Former Houston Rockets guard Bobby Brown joins us to discuss his time playing alongside top 2021 NBA draft prospects Jalen Green and Jonathan Kuminga. Brown, Green, and Kuminga were each regular starters in the 2021 G League "bubble" for the G League Ignite team, with Brown and Green often lining up together in the starting backcourt. With Houston defying the odds to land the No. 2 overall pick in Tuesday's draft lottery, Green is suddenly among the top candidates to join the Rockets this offseason. Topics discussed on Friday's new episode include: The value of the NBA's new "professional pathway" program to prospects like Green and Kuminga What Green's demeanor is like, on and off the court How Green improved during his season in the G League Potential NBA comparisons for both Green and Kuminga Why Brown wants Green to be Houston's choice at No. 2 overall What comes next for Brown, now that more international basketball opportunities could open up next season

May the Fourth be with everyone in Philadelphia 76ers-land! Tom West joins host Adio Royster on the podcast to discuss the man who has become this team’s “Yoda”. Danny Green has been such an improvement to the Sixers roster in 2021. Tom and Adio talk about what he’s done for the team from several different angles. How Green’s shooting opens up the floor and the offense. How his crafty defense is making the team the kind of defensive force we thought they’d be last year, and how his off the court demeanor has helped make players like Matisse Thybulle, for example, become even better players than they already were.

With four issues of Offline Journal now published since its launch in October 2018, I thought it might interest people to learn the story of each cover image: the where, when, what and why of each photograph described, when possible, by the photographer. In this new ‘Covered’ series - available here on the Newsletter - I’ve asked photographers to put themselves through the torture of recording their cover stories. To kick things off, Listen to Rob Law’s story behind his Offline Journal issue #004 cover in the audio clip at the top of this page.Photography Online - lots of inspiration!I had hoped to get this Newsletter out last weekend but distractions abound - even in lockdown it seems!The ongoing Covid-19 lockdown here in Wales and around the world has stimulated creative ways for many to stay engaged with photography. Many thousands of enthusiasts and professionals alike are finding new and some not-so-new routes to create and share projects indoors and also connect with others to learn more about photography through online talks and group video discussions.It’s interesting to note how some photography institutions and galleries currently closed in the Covid-19 crisis have been compelled to adapt their normal marketing and communication efforts. It will be interesting to see if and how these positive activities - appreciated by the seemingly vast numbers engaging with them - might continue when some form of normality returns. Wales should also embrace this opportunity to share its own talent with the wider photography world going forward.I thought I’d share a few that interested me and had me engaged…Photography from Isolation to Communication - ICPBased in New York, The International Centre of Photography (ICP) ran a series titled ‘Photography from Isolation to Communication’ with David Campany - the respected photography writer and curator.Costing $35 in total, his three sessions - delivered via Zoom (from what appeared to be his kitchen table!) - ran over consecutive evenings 15-17 April with roughly 300 participants watching and posting questions:Session 1. Collaboration in IsolationSession 2. Photobook EditingSession 3. The Photographer-WriterAlthough ended, you can read the outline topics covered by Campany on the event page here.I’m sure we’ll see more of these from ICP: $35 x 300 = $10,500.00 (from a kitchen table) - but well worth it when you have a quality speaker!Keep an eye on their website.Mack LiveSpecialist UK Photobook publisher Mack Books were very quick to react to the lockdown and have been hosting a new ‘Mack Live’ series of videos since late March with photographers and curators discussing photobooks. The recent ‘Alec Soth Bookshelf Tour’ video is a fascinating insight on this Magnum photographer as photobook collector: his diverse taste in photography and how and where it’s published in book form. One of my favourite parts has him showing a strange, run of the mill and mass-produced American cookery book titled ‘White Trash Cooking’ at 25:12 on the video - then revealing pseudo-William Eggleston photography included in the centre pages.You can watch the Alec Soth video and others in the ongoing series at https://mackbooks.co.uk/pages/liveMagnum Quarantine ConversationsCreative thinking is emerging from Magnum Photos in the form of pairing up its member photographers by drawing two names from a hat and having them discuss their work and approach in online video conversations. These are really quite inspiring - particularly when you consider the calibre and experience of the individuals taking part. Two of the series had me rewinding and relistening to parts of the respective discussions: Richard Kalvar & Jérôme Sessini discussing conflict photography, fear, and invulnerability; and Lua Ribeira & Susan Meiselas exploring collaboration, intuition, the importance of rich archives and how photographing revolution helped Susan understand the structures of power.I really hope Magnum continue with this series of random pairings for very unique conversations. You can watch them now at www.magnumphotos.com/theme/quarantine-conversationsDavid HurnOn the subject of Magnum photographers, Wales’ own David Hurn continues to demonstrate a seemingly unbounded enthusiasm for experimentation and making photographs despite his Covid-19 confinement. As the screenshot above (shown here with permission) demonstrates, he has set himself a brief to photograph his cottage as though working for an Estate Agent! Sounds easy but actually very challenging! If you don’t follow his Instagram feed (his only online presence away from the Magnum website) his weekly posts are worth browsing through as they form a visual journal on photography, life and memories.David’s text in the above post also has a complimentary mention for Offline Journal and the new Valleys book by Paul Cabuts coming in the next few weeks - read his Instagram post here.Ffoton LivestreamAlso in Wales, Ffoton has started experimenting with livestreaming these last few weeks with a new series of live conversations with photographers - each lasting approximately 30 minutes with questions from the online audience enabled via live chat. The first two talks were photographers who’ve had their work featured on Offline Journal covers - Matt Eynon on issue #002 and Nick Wynne on issue #003 - and the latest conversation with Rhodri Jones (based in Bologna, Italy) is well worth watching on the Ffoton YouTube channel.Issue #005 of Offline Journal now underwayWith the latest issue of Offline Journal now in the hands of subscribers and many others who have purchased a copy online, work has now started on issue #005 to be published in October. To help realise some very unique articles I’m delighted to welcome Ellie Hopkins as co-editor of issue #005. Many will be aware that Ellie has been a contributing writer in the first four issues and I’m looking forward to having her creative input help mould the next one.Subscription - supporting Offline in uncertain timesIt has been interesting to experience first-hand how the seemingly predictable process of printing and distributing a small printed publication can be knocked sideways through the disruption caused by a public health emergency. Printers can print, but only if their paper and ink suppliers can make deliveries and their own presses be manned. As things turned out, Offline Journal was printed with just over a week’s delay - so no big deal really.The most frustrating but uncontrolable impact on the latest issue is the loss of physical outlets (six of which had been secured for issue #004 and were prepared to take #005) but are currently closed due to social distancing measures. Had they been open as normal, this latest issue might have sold all 150 copies.Modern technology has transformed both photography and publishing. The benefits of digital assets, fast file transfers over broadband and digital printing allow flexibility in types and quantities of materials printed - such as my own self-imposed print run of 150 copies of Offline Journal’s first four issues. I considered this a reasonably low target that might see all copies sold in the six month period between issues and, as a result, the Journal would cover its own production, print and associated costs.Offline Journal would not exist without the enthusiastic support of talented contributors - the photographers and writers who have worked with me on the Journal in these early days and share a desire to develop a publication dedicated to photography in and from Wales. These wonderful people have donated their talents and enthusiasm thus far in exchange for free copies of the Journal or beer (a couple of tough-nuts have haggled for both). Going forward, I’d like to offer contributors a small recompense for inclusion of their images and writing but that can only happen if Offline Journal increases its print run and gains more subscribers, with particular emphasis on the latter.If you have renewed your subscription for the next two issues - I thank you sincerely.If you have been supporting Offline through purchasing single issues up until now, my thanks again and I’d ask you to now consider also receiving the special printed supplements that accompany subscriber issues.

When Tim Green first heard—back in January—the news about the spread of COVID-19 overseas, he decided to lead his credit union to prepare for a scenario in which the disease would shut down the whole county where his credit union is located. He says he thought at the time that if the situation turned out to be less dire, his team would still benefit from the exercise. When Los Angeles County, California, did in fact close down, Tim and his team at $1.8 billion F&A Federal Credit Union in Monterey Park were more ready than most businesses.Having antennae out to market signals and being open to responding to them is a hallmark of great leadership. And yet Green is most humble in this show. CEO for just about 13 months, he is grateful to his board for their support of this initiative. He’s grateful to other financial institutions for the ideas he “stole” from them and adapted to best suit his credit union. Green explains in the show that one of the first things he started working on when he joined the credit union was operational readiness—determining what was effective and what wasn’t in terms of people, systems and processes. A key thing he found was that “we were very adept at disaster recovery, but what also became pretty apparent was that our business continuity planning was not where we wanted it to be.”In January, when the focus narrowed to preparing for the closure scenario, “we really went through it in a sequential way. We ordered a bunch of equipment. … The processes were tested. We tested in our training environment, then we moved people remotely. By the time we got to the first week in March, we were really ready to handle this and operate 90% of the core credit union functions remotely. “Once we had operational readiness,” he continues, “… the first thing we needed to do was think, ‘How are we doing to take care of our members?’” Among other programs, the CU offers members financially affected by COVID-19 enhanced skip-a-pay and a short-term assistance loan.A third leg of the stool was employees. “We were able to move about 75% of our back-office staff out of the building (the CU has two branches) and about 70%” of all staff, he explains. “We gave everybody on the team below vice president a free week of PTO … and immediately the goodwill started to flow back from our employees." The CU closed its headquarters branch to walk-in traffic to better protect staff. The other branch has a bandit barrier between staff and members. The credit union also is paying branch workers a short-term 30% raise and catering lunch daily, so staff don’t have to leave the building to pick up food.“Because we were ready to serve operationally, we were then able to really reach out and provide tangible benefit to our membership, simultaneously demonstrating a commitment to our employees that had carried us through thus far.”The show also gets into:How Green’s risk management background informed his credit union’s responseThe thing that has worked best for F&A FCU in its pandemic response How F&A FCU’s response reflected its values--what its leadership thought was the right thing to doWhat F&A FCU might do next in its pandemic response effortGreen’s concerns about the economic recovery and helping members through that
