In unserer neuen Episode von Das Filmmagazin tauchen wir in die Welt von Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves ein. Der Film aus dem Jahr 2023 liefert genau das, was man sich von einem Fantasy-Spektakel erhofft: eine bunte Truppe von Helden, epische Abenteuer und jede Menge humorvolle Momente. Wir sprechen darüber, wie die Macher des Films eine Balance zwischen actionreicher Fantasy und spritzigem Humor finden. Dabei bietet der Film sowohl für Kenner des Dungeons & Dragons-Universums als auch für Neueinsteiger beste Unterhaltung. Chris Pine überzeugt als sympathischer Anführer einer skurrilen Heldentruppe, während Hugh Grant als schurkischer Gegenspieler brilliert. Trotz einiger Klischees ist der Film ein kurzweiliges und gut erzähltes Popcornkino, das vor allem durch seinen Humor besticht.

In this episode Alice Yamabe and Andre Mader speak with two IGES colleagues, Fernando Ortiz Moya and Yasuo Takahashi, about the phenomenon of depopulation. Fernando has been studying shrinking cities, and Yasuo has been doing research on urban to rural migration, so we have two quite different angles on this subject.To many it may seem counterintuitive to worry about depopulation in a world in which the human populations continues to grow. But population growth rates have been slowing for decades, and have become negative in a growing list of countries. Interestingly, at least in Japan, this has not necessarily been good for people or the environment. On the other hand, perhaps we need to accept and adapt to this reality. "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

En 1924 nacía la radio en España con el establecimiento de las primeras emisoras estables: de este modo, nuestro país se sumaba a la efervescencia radiofónica internacional surgida en Norteamérica tres años antes.Radio, Arte y Vanguardia, de Ana Vega Toscano, se centra en la importancia que tuvieron las vanguardias históricas para la creatividad y el lenguaje sonoro en los inicios de la radio. Movimientos como el futurismo, el surrealismo, o los hispánicos ultraísmo y estridentismo, vieron su potencial innovador para transformar el panorama de la comunicación, y distintos artistas de vanguardia realizaron decisivas aportaciones para la definición del medio radiofónico.El documental deja constancia de espacios pioneros de la década de 1920 como los radioteatros Danger, de la BBC, o Maremoto, de Radio París. Así como las experiencias de la radio alemana protagonizadas por Bertold Brecht o Walter Ruttman, o del futurismo italiano, con Filippo Marinetti a la cabeza.En España destaca la labor de Unión Radio, fundada en 1924, en el interés por la vanguardia. Recordamos la contribución esencial de Ramón Gómez de la Serna, junto a la de otras figuras como Enrique Jardiel Poncela, Salvador Bacarisse, Manuel Abril, Antonio Robles o Rosa Arciniega. De este modo, se percibe el rico panorama surgido de la intersección de radio y vanguardia y su contribución al establecimiento del lenguaje radiofónico.Contamos para ello con la participación de la periodista y documentalista Ángeles Afuera, doctora en CC. de la Información, fundadora del Servicio de Documentación de la Cadena SER y autora de Aquí Unión Radio; del artista multimedia y catedrático de Bellas Artes de la Universitat Politècnica de València Miguel Molina; y del compositor y artista multimedia José Iges, doctor en CC. de la Información y fundador del programa Ars Sonora de Radio Clásica.Escuchar audio

Fasten ist bekannt für seine gesundheitlichen Vorteile, von der Förderung der Autophagie – dem natürlichen Reinigungsprozess unserer Zellen – bis hin zur Verlängerung der gesunden Lebensspanne. Aber was, wenn es einen Stoff gäbe, der diese Effekte noch verstärken oder sogar ersetzen könnte? Spoiler-Alarm: Diesen Stoff gibt es und er nennt sich Spermidin. In dieser Folge der Flowgrade Show spreche ich mit Longevity Unternehmer Herbert Pock über Spermidin, was es ist, was es kann und wie du die Vorteile für dich nutzen kannst. Dazu erfährst du, wie Spermidin die Autophagie und Zellreinigung unterstützt und welche Auswirkungen dies auf unsere Gesundheit und Langlebigkeit haben kann. Herbert teilt sein umfassendes Wissen und zeigt auf, wie diese natürliche Verbindung dazu beitragen kann, unser Leben zu verlängern und unsere Lebensqualität zu steigern. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören! ► Was du in der Folge erfahren wirst: Förderung der Autophagie:Erfahre, wie Fasten und Spermidin den zellulären Reinigungsprozess unterstützen, der altersbedingte Zellschäden reduziert und die Gesundheit der Zellen verbessert. Empfohlene Dosierung und Einnahmezeiten:Herbert Pock erklärt die optimale tägliche Dosierung von 2-6 Milligramm Spermidin und gibt praktische Tipps zu den besten Einnahmezeiten: morgens auf nüchternen Magen, während des Intervallfastens oder abends vor dem Schlafengehen. Synergetische Effekte von Spermidin und Fasten:Entdecke, wie die Kombination von Spermidin und Intervallfasten zusammenwirken kann, um die Zellgesundheit und Langlebigkeit weiter zu verbessern. Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse:Erhalte Einblicke in Studien, die vielversprechende Ergebnisse zur lebensverlängernden Wirkung von Spermidin bei Modellorganismen und erste Hinweise auf gesundheitliche Vorteile beim Menschen zeigen. Praktische Integration:Nützliche Tipps, wie du Spermidin und Fasten in deinen Alltag integrieren kannst, um einen gesunden Lebensstil zu fördern. ► Was genau ist Spermidin? Spermidin ist eine natürliche Verbindung, die in vielen Lebensmitteln vorkommt und eine entscheidende Rolle in unseren Zellen spielt. Es unterstützt den Prozess der Autophagie – eine Art "Zellreinigung", bei der unerwünschte Zellbestandteile abgebaut und recycelt werden. Dieser Prozess ist besonders wichtig, da er zur Zellerneuerung beiträgt und altersassoziierte Krankheiten verhindern kann. Mit zunehmendem Alter verlangsamt sich die Autophagie, was zu einer Ansammlung von Zellschäden führt. Hier kommt Spermidin ins Spiel, indem es die Autophagie wieder ankurbelt und somit die Zellerneuerung fördert. ► Entdecke die Vorteile von SpermidineLIFE Wir sind stolz darauf, mit SpermidineLIFE zusammenzuarbeiten und haben ein exklusives Angebot für dich! Mit dem Code FLOWGRADE erhältst du ganze 20% Rabatt sowohl auf Einzelkäufe und auf Abonnements.

Zusammen mit dem renommierten Professor Dr. Frank Madeo gründete er Longevity Labs, ein Unternehmen, das sich der Erforschung und Entwicklung von natürlichen Produkten zur Lebensverlängerung verschrieben hat. Ihre Marke SpermidineLIFE hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, die beeindruckenden Vorteile von Spermidin für jedermann zugänglich zu machen. ► Fazit & Danke!

In this episode of About Sustainability, we talked to Heinz Schandl, who joined us from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), which is an Australian Government agency responsible for scientific research. He is an expert on natural resource use, and international resource flows. Among other things, Heinz explained about resource efficiency, the socioeconomic drivers of resource use, and about the possibilities of decoupling economic development and human well-being from resource use. He also explained how resource use is measured through what we call the material footprint, and why it is important to capture the international dimension of that footprint. We also learned about progress in indicators and data availability so that the international linkages between resource extraction and final consumption can be tracked and managed.  All these items are important for measuring progress across several SDGs including SDG 8 on decent work and economic growth, and SDG 12 on sustainable consumption and production.  "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode Alice and Andre talked to Simon about the United Nations Environment Assembly, also known as UNEA, which is the decision-making body of the United Nations Environment Programme. UNEA takes place in Nairobi every second year and it is always preceded by the so-called OECPR, which stands for the Open-ended Committee of Permanent Representatives. This committee functions as the working level meeting that prepares decisions and resolutions for official approval by UNEA. This year, UNEA-6 took place in late February and I joined some of the preparations for that meeting, so in this episode we discuss some of the things that took place during the OECPR and UNEA to draw attention to those processes of international environmental governance that influence the agenda of domestic environmental policy making.

On this episode of About Sustainability…, Andre,  Alice and Simon celebrate the contribution of an IGES legend, Mr Hideyuki Mori. Mori-san has been a leader at IGES for most of the institute's history, following diverse experience at other institutions including the United Nations Environment Programme and Asian Development Bank. He retired last year and we wanted to speak to him about his career including his long tenure at IGES. In this discussion we also reminisce about long-time colleague Peter King, who appeared on the podcast last year, but unexpectedly passed away a few months ago.  Mori-san and Peter were friends, and played a key role in steering IGES' course as in international institute.This episode will probably be of particular interest to IGES staff members or prospective IGES staff, but there should be something for anyone who is interested in careers in the environment. "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

On this episode of About Sustainability…, Alice and Erin were joined by Naoyuki OKANO and Nagisa SHIIBA, IGES experts working on Climate Adaptation. This episode, recorded in December 2023, offers a quick recap of what happened at COP28 in Dubai and then dives deep into the far-reaching impacts of climate change on human security. Hosted in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, the 28th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP28) brought the world's leaders together to discuss how to confront the climate crisis. Some of its main outcomes include the first Global Stocktake (GST), the agreement on the framework for operationalising the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA), and the agreement on the operationalisation of the Loss and Damage Fund. Naoyuki and Nagisa introduce us to their new research project on Climate Security in the Asia Pacific, funded by the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We discuss how framing the climate crisis as a security issue can be a powerful approach to mobilising resources across areas and tackling global challenges.ABOUT OUR GUESTSDr. Naoyuki OKANO is a Policy Researcher in the Adaptation and Water Unit of IGES. He works on issues related to the laws and governance of climate change adaptation, nature-based solutions, transboundary climate risks, and climate security. Nagisa SHIIBA is a Policy Researcher at the Adaptation and Water Unit of IGES. She is engaged in research projects on climate change adaptation and supports the negotiation process for the Japanese delegation to the Conference of Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.RELEVANT PUBLICATIONS AND PROJECTSAsia-Pacific Climate Security Project (APCS) Website IGES is organising an international symposium on climate security in Asia-Pacific on 8 February 2024.

On this episode of About Sustainability…, Erin, Alice, and Simon were joined by Matthew Hengesbaugh and Chochoe Devaporihartakula, IGES experts working on plastic pollution. While plastics have been an indispensable part of modern life, plastic pollution has entered the public consciousness in recent years. It is an issue that most of us encounter every day.The United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) agreed in 2022 to create an intergovernmental negotiating committee (INC) to establish a legally binding instrument to end plastic pollution. We discussed how serious plastic pollution is in Asia, what the INC is trying to achieve, what was discussed at the recent meeting (INC-3) including the challenges that emerged, and what is needed for an ambitious treaty to tackle this transboundary issue.About our guests:Chochoe Devaporihartakula manages the regional project portfolio addressing plastics and marine pollution at the IGES Bangkok Regional Centre. She also serves as a Programme Manager for the Asian Environmental Compliance and Enforcement Network, where she is dedicated to promoting improved compliance with environmental laws and regulations through environmental agencies across 18 countries in Asia.Matthew Hengesbaugh is a Policy Researcher supporting the IGES Integrated Sustainability Centre with action research on the 2030 Development Agenda, working on issues such as climate change, green jobs, green economy, and sustainable consumption and production.Relevant publications and projects:Previous podcast episodes on this topic:What is UNEA-5.2?Updates from the ongoing political and scientific processes to reduce plastic pollutionSWITCH-Asia's policy brief on INC-3"About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

John Müller von Google hat davor gewarnt, neue Blogbeiträge nur zu posten, um eine bestimmte Frequenz zu erzielen und dabei die Qualität zu vernachlässigen. So etwas kann der gesamten Website schaden. Google wird in nächster Zeit ein Update des Helpful Contents durchführen. Anders als bisher werden dann nicht nur Inhalte abgewertet, die wenig hilfreich sind, sondern es werden auch hilfreiche Inhalte aufgewertet. Wieder einmal gibt es Anzeichen für ein größeres und nicht angekündigtes Google Update - dieses Mal für den Zeitraum 10. und 11. Mai. Google neue Suche und Google Search Generative Experience - was ist eigentlich darunter zu verstehen? Google hat dazu eine umfangreiche Dokumentation veröffentlicht. Sowohl für Google Bard als auch für den Chat im neuen Bing gab es diese Woche neue Funktionen und Features. Bing zeigt jetzt zum Beispiel in seinen Antworten Bilder an, und Bard liefert bessere Quellenangaben.

Our guest on this episode is Akihisa Kuriyama, a policy researcher in IGES' Climate & Energy Unit. He joins us to talk about SDG7 on energy. We spoke about the relationship between energy and climate; what's new about SDG 7 in the global discussion on energy; some of the barriers and challenges in achieving the goal; the possibilities of nuclear energy; and the best ways of getting energy to the largest possible number of people, as quickly as possible. A number of examples were given to illustrate parts of the discussion.Relevant links:SDG7: GOAL 7: Affordable and Clean EnergyKuriyama-san's work at IGES: https://www.iges.or.jp/en/about/staff/kuriyama-akihisa  "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode we met with Amila from IGES who shared the latest updates on  international plastics governance.  Among others, he described details on the international negotiations committee that was formed last year to define a legally binding instrument to curb plastic pollution. We heard who is on that committee and what they do when they meet. He also explained details and challenges around what is called the life cycle approach and explained why experts are working on approaches to account for the impacts of plastics throughout its entire life cycle. In this regard we were also able to hear some examples of the work he and his colleagues are doing to help build the needed capacity at local levels to measure plastic pollution and to be able to take steps to reduce it.Relevant links:Information on the lifecycle approach: https://www.lifecycleinitiative.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/UNEP-D010-Food-Packaging-Re[…]Version-1-1.pdf/UNEP-D010-Food-Packaging-Report-2-1.pdf What makes reliable data for microplastics policy? ​​https://isap.iges.or.jp/2022/en/t13.html "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode of About Sustainability…Erin and Bob talked to Binaya Raj Shivakoti, an IGES expert in the Adaptation and Water team, about SDG6, which is on “ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all” (or simply ‘Clean Water and Sanitation'). This goal's environmental dimensions are clear, and has targets on the universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene for all; improving water quality and water-use efficiency; implementing integrated water resource management; protecting and restoring water-related ecosystems; fostering international cooperation, and involving local communities in water and sanitation management.During our chat, we talked about water being fundamental to all aspects of life and what life can be like for communities without access to these basic needs. We then explored integrated water resource management (IWRM), which Binaya argued is a natural starting point for implementing all the SDGs.Related linksUNDESA's SDG6 PageRecent work on integrated river basin management (a form of integrated water resource management)Binaya's recent publication on Tonle Sap LakeIGES publications relevant to SDG6About our guest:Binaya Raj Shivakoti is a Senior Policy Researcher in the Adaptation and Water team at IGES.

In this episode of About Sustainability..., Andre and Erin spoke with their colleague, Maiko Morishita, about SDG5, on achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls. Maiko is part of the IGES finance task force, which covers a variety of topics but she also previously worked in the NGO world where gender was a key component of her work. We started by asking Maiko why she thinks this goal is important. We then proceeded through a winding conversation that touches on various aspects of SDG5, albeit not all aspects of this diverse goal. The idea was to explore this SDG and really dig into some of the ideas behind it. So we hope it provides a bit of depth and a bit of breadth, and hopefully some fresh perspectives. Related linksUN Department of Economic and Social Affairs' Goal 5 PageSustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN)'s 2022 Sustainable Development ReportAbout our guest:After working at a foreign investment bank, Maiko Morishita was involved in a development education program for an NGO involved in international exchange.

In this episode of About Sustainability…Erin and Simon caught up with Andre just before his trip to Montreal, Canada for the second part of the 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD COP15). A few things have changed since the release of our CBD episode back in March. CBD COP15 will now be convened from the 7th to the 19th of December 2022 in Montreal, Canada under the Chinese COP15 presidency.After a two-year delay, Parties will finally come together to negotiate and agree on the text of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework (or GBF). We explored some of the highlights and interesting aspects of the GBF, including the “30by30” target, other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), and digital sequence information.Relevant links:IGES' Special Webpage on CBD COP15About Sustainability… episode on the CBDPreparations for the post-2020 GBF"About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode of About Sustainability…Bob kicked off a new experimental format, tentatively called “Sustainability Afoot”.  The concept is simple: go for a walk near the headquarters of the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) in Hayama, Japan, and discuss some basic questions about a topic, concept, or methodology that IGES works in. The first episode of this format is about the concept of the “circular economy.”  Yasuhiko Hotta, Programme Director of the Sustainable Consumption and Production unit at IGES, explained the circular economy concept, gave a few examples, and talked about some of IGES' work on the topic.  This naturally led to marine plastic litter, and the ongoing work of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC) on Plastic Pollution that came out of UNEA 5.2 (the second part of the 5th session of the United Nations Environment Assembly), a conference that we discussed on this podcast  before and after it happened.The sound quality of this format will not match that of  our regular episodes.  We'll try to get better at recording these types of episodes, but the audio will never be as clean. Whether  we should do more episodes like this, or the sound quality will make you stop listening, we want to know.  Please tweet us at @IGES_EN to let us know what you think!About our guest:Yasuhiko Hotta is Programme Director of the Sustainable Consumption and Production unit at IGES.

This is the second part of our episode on SDG4 and education for sustainable development. In this part we focused on whether the right skills are taught in schools to equip people with skills and priorities necessary to bring about a more sustainable world rather than one characterized by competition and scarcity.  Robert shared more information and examples from his work on education for sustainable development, and we discussed what approaches to education might be needed to help achieve important sustainable development and climate goals ahead of 2030."About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode we talked with our good friend Robert Didham. He is Centre Director and Associate Professor at the Centre for Collaborative Learning for Sustainable Development Faculty of Education, Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences. We talked to Robert about education for sustainable development and its place in Agenda 2030 as SDG 4. He explained how SDG 4 takes a comprehensive focus on education when compared to earlier approaches such as the Millennium Development Goals. We then discussed some of the different facets of education such as a more qualitative view on education that is being promoted including focus on youth, technical vocational education and training, gender, jobs and education as lifelong learning. This episode is divided into two parts to allow for more space for discussion. Part two focuses more on Robert's work on education for sustainable development, and what approaches to education are needed to help achieve important sustainable development and climate goals. But that will be in our next release. At small correction shall be noted: At 2:20 in the recording, when Robert was referring to the international framework that is the follow-up to the Global Action Programme on Education for Sustainable Development, he misnamed this framework by referring to it as the Education for 2030 framework, and it should have been correctly referred to the Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) for 2030 framework.Please visit ESD for 2030 framework and the subsequent ESD for 2030 roadmap for further information on these initiatives."About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode of About Sustainability..., Erin, Andre, and Bob invited Eric Zusman back to talk about SDG3 on Health. Eric works on co-benefits between air pollution mitigation and climate action, which has significant implications for public health. Meanwhile, Erin provided some context and perspectives based on her public health background. We started the discussion with what it means to be ‘healthy' and what is required to attain good health. We then moved onto what SDG3 emphasises (and what it does not), what is missing from SDG3, global progress on the goal, and COVID-19's impacts on our efforts and on health systems more generally. We then looked more deeply into air pollution specifically, as it is responsible for the premature deaths of approximately seven million people annually. We explored linkages with climate change, solutions that benefit air quality, climate mitigation and health, and the challenges or tradeoffs of implementing such solutions.Related linksUN Department of Economic and Social Affairs' Goal 3 PageSustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN)'s 2022 Sustainable Development ReportStrengthening the Linkages Between Air Pollution and the Sustainable Development GoalsThis policy brief argues featuring air pollution more prominently in the structure of the SDGs could deliver significant health benefits.Sustainable and Inclusive Solutions to Air Pollution and Climate Change in Southeast Asia: Participatory Governance, Social Co-benefits and Co-InnovationThis issue brief presents ways that policymakers in Southeast Asia can support sustainable and inclusive solutions to air pollution and climate change with health co-benefits.One Atmosphere: Integrating Air Pollution and Climate Policy and GovernanceThis paper argues that more rigorous research is needed on how governance can help achieve air quality, climate and health co-benefits.Integrating Clean Air, Climate, and Health Policies in the COVID-19 Era: The Role of Co-benefits and the Triple R FrameworkThis policy brief argues that co-benefits can be a useful concept to integrate climate, air pollution and health policies in the COVID-era.About our guest:Eric Zusman is a Research Leader at the Integrated Sustainability Centre at IGES.

In the second episode of our series on SDGs, Simon, Andre and Erin invited Prabhakar SVRK, who knows a lot about climate adaptation, food and agriculture. Focusing on SDG2 on Zero Hunger, we talked about the challenges to achieve a world free from hunger while trying to reduce fossil fuel use to limit climate change, given the significant fossil fuel-based inputs in our current food system. It seems the world is producing enough food or has potential to do so, but that distribution, access and sustainability of production remain a problem. In this episode, we covered the world's progress on SDG2; why we can't solve this fundamental problem; the issue of production vs. access to food; extensive vs. intensive agriculture; globalized food supply chains; the role of innovation; food loss and food waste, and more.Related linksSDG2 Progress, Targets, and IndicatorsPrabhakar's slides on SDG2 About our guest:Sivapuram Ventaka Rama Krishna Prabhakar (referred to as “Prabhakar” in the episode) is a Principal Policy Researcher in the Adaptation and Water unit at IGES.

What's in an SDG?In an effort to more deeply understand the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), over the next few months, the About Sustainability… podcast will zoom in on each of them in turn. We will invite experts to join us and parse out more about an individual goal, where we are in terms of achieving it, and the challenges it presents. We will also discuss how each goal, including those that are not environmentally oriented, is linked to environmental sustainability.In the first of these SDG-focused episodes, André and Erin spoke to Atsushi Watabe (who we call “Watabe-san” at the office) and Dwayne Appleby, two IGES experts who have studied and written about SDG1, on ending all forms of poverty everywhere. We covered what is meant by “extreme poverty” and “relative poverty”; which aspects of poverty have been left out or not explicitly addressed in SDG1; the effects of poverty alleviation on the environment; to what extent we are making progress toward alleviating poverty (and how reliable the figures are); how poverty and inequality or inequity are linked; the possible drivers of poverty; and potential solutions.Related links:UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs' SDG 1 pageSustainable Ways of Living Issue Brief Series (Atsushi Watabe)One Planet Network Sustainable Lifestyles and Education ProgrammeSDG1 reading list:Dead Aid: Why Aid Is Not Working and How There Is a Better Way for Africa (Dambisa Moyo)Poor Economics: A Radical Rethinking of the Way to Fight Global Poverty (Abhijit V.

This is part 2 of the broad discussion that André, Bob, Erin, and Simon went into, which began with the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and why it seems so challenging for the world to achieve the goals. Part 2 of the discussion started with Erin's question on whether the issue with the capitalist system is that negative environmental externalities are not sufficiently factored into economic decisions. We touched on ethical issues such as the Trolley Problem, why or why not poverty alleviation is the most important SDG, the idea of the ecological footprint and what we don't know about SDG 12 on sustainable consumption and production, and the true value of the SDGs for countries.As always, we do not profess to have all the right answers to these questions but enter into these exchanges to learn new perspectives on the difficult and challenging questions about sustainability.

This time, Andre, Bob, Erin, and Simon went into a broader discussion around the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and why it seems so challenging for the world to achieve the goals despite them constituting the ‘good' of development. The discussion touched upon many items, including how the SDGs are different than the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that preceded them, how to measure poverty, the different approaches to govern relying more on governmental sanctions or letting the invisible hand of the market do the job. The discussion stretched beyond the limits of what we normally see as one episode, and therefore the second part will be published shortly.

Andre and Erin had a chance to talk to a fascinating person named Wardarina about civic engagement, especially focusing on the Asia-Pacific Regional CSO Engagement Mechanism (APRCEM). Simon joined the discussion to provide additional insights, as he too has a lot of experience engaging in this space.Wardarina (or Rina, as she is often known) is currently one of the co-chairs, of the APRCEM. The APRCEM is a self-organised platform to support grassroot and marginalized constituency engagement with Agenda 2030 in the Asia-Pacific region and globally. The platform currently has more than 600 affiliated organisations from across the region. Rina shared her views on why stakeholder voices need to be heard in SDG-related processes. She also spoke about how APRCEM and others are working to further strengthen civic engagement and ensure that a broad range of views, knowledge, and experiences are included in Agenda 2030. This is a frank, open discussion that should also be educational to anyone unfamiliar with how major groups and other stakeholders factor into global forums on sustainable development. A side note: in shortening this conversation for brevity, we cut out when Rina mentioned that major groups don't need to wait their turn to speak after governments at certain forums. Andre referred to this toward the end of the episode.Helpful resources:About Sustainability… podcast episode on APFSD and HLPFIGES' APFSD 2022 Special WebpageAPRCEM WebsiteAbout our guest:Wardarina (“Rina”) is a feminist and activist, originally from Indonesia.

Bob and André talked to Sudarmanto Budi Nugroho (“Toto”) and Eric Zusman, two IGES experts who were involved in Working Group III (Climate Mitigation) of the 6th Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The latest report in the IPCC AR6 series, the WGIII Report summarises the latest knowledge on climate mitigation options, building on the work of Working Groups I (the Physical Basis of Climate Change) and II (Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability). The reports that the IPCC has produced since its establishment in 1988 tell us where we are with climate change and produce scientific inputs that inform policy and decision-making to address this crisis. The IPCC is the only UN body for assessing the science of climate change.We had such a fascinating discussion learning about the process of producing the report, including the review process of each chapter and the complicated issues around equity in selecting members of the Working Groups. In this conversation, we did not dive into the nitty-gritty details of the report, but this is what we know: we are not curbing emissions fast enough to be on track to limit warming to 1.5ºC, and national goals have to be even more ambitious.  The good news is that the cost of technological innovations has come down faster than previously anticipated, lowering the barrier to taking action. There is an ever-narrowing but still open window of opportunity.On another occasion, we hope to have a chance to revisit the report's content in more depth.Helpful resources:IGES' Special Webpage on the IPCCIPCC AR6 WGIII ReportAbout our guests:Sudarmanto Budi Nugroho (referred to as “Toto” in this conversation) is a Research Manager in IGES' City Taskforce.  He co-authored Chapter 10 on transport, as well as the Summary for Policymakers (SPM).Eric Zusman is Research Leader in IGES' Integrated Sustainability Centre.  He co-authored Chapter 17: Accelerating the transition in the context of sustainable development."About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this bonus episode of About Sustainability…, André, Bob, Erin, and Simon briefly discussed people's relationship with nature, from local communities that use natural resources in a low-impact way to large-scale efforts around the world to plant trees. This side conversation happened during our discussion on the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) (Episode 3, linked below). Despite their popularity, André cautioned that tree planting campaigns can be ineffective and even destructive to biodiversity in some cases. Nature-based solutions, including tree planting - like most things - require the right context. Otherwise, we may be doing more damage than good.Helpful resources:Episode 3: Convention on Biological DiversityIGES' CBD-COP15 Special Webpage"About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

In this episode of About Sustainability…, Simon and Erin followed up with Andre and IGES colleague Amila Abeynayaka, an expert on plastics management, on some of the recent outcomes from UNEA-5.2, the second part of the fifth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA).At this year's UNEA, governments managed to find consensus on 14 decisions and resolutions, and we discussed a couple of these, namely on nature-based solutions (NBS) and on plastics. First, we discussed the decision on nature-based solutions. We heard Andre's insights on the concept, where it comes from, what it means and why it may have been difficult to agree on. Then, Amila discussed with us the much-awaited resolution on ending plastic pollution, which was another important outcome of UNEA 5.2. Apart from the details of the resolution, we also talked about why we are getting such a resolution now, its focus and why it is difficult to get away from plastics entirely. Throughout our conversation, we discovered that all these issues are interlinked in interesting ways.

This time Erin, Bob, and Simon talked to Andre about the Convention on Biological Diversity, or CBD, and the upcoming 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD (CBD-COP15). This meeting is expected to be held in Kunming later in 2022. The conversation touched upon the purposes of the CBD and who its members are. Andre also explained the CBD's mandate and how it compares to other related processes. They also talked about the Aichi Biodiversity Targets and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework that is supposed to replace these targets. The discussion also touched upon the differences between the biodiversity COP and the more famous and more frequent climate COP. The episode also touched upon the concept of ecosystem services, which are the ways in which nature enables us to live and thrive. Here, Andre offered a perspective on which services we may undervalue and should focus more on. "About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

This time, Andre, Erin, and Simon spoke with Nobue Amanuma, a Deputy Director at the IGES Integrated Sustainability Centre. Nobue and Simon have been quite deeply involved in IGES work on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We discussed the SDGs, and in particular two key upcoming meetings that review countries' progress toward them. The Asia-Pacific Forum on Sustainable Development (APFSD), happening in March 2022, is the main regional event for the Asia-Pacific region, and the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) is its global event cousin that takes place in July 2022.  We started by talking about what these meetings are and why they are convened. We spent quite a bit of time exploring the concept of “Voluntary National Reviews” (VNRs), and their “shadow report” or “spotlight report” counterparts, all of which are key features of APFSD and HLPF. We discussed IGES involvement at the meetings and asked what else happens there, besides the review of SDG progress. We talked about the importance of these meetings as forums for engagement between civil society and governments, and we ended off by speculating about whether they are as effective as they could be.To learn more about the APFSD and HLPF, and IGES contributions to these processes in 2022, please visit:IGES' APFSD 2022 Special Webpage: https://www.iges.or.jp/en/projects/apfsd2022IGES' HLPF 2022 Special Webpage (coming soon)"About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

Simon shares his knowledge on UNEA-5.2, the second half of UNEP's biennial United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA), and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). UNEA functions as the world's parliament on the environment, where global environment ministers congregate to debate and decide on priorities of environmental concern in the context of nation states and the global community. Due to COVID-19, the event was divided into two halves with the first part taking place almost entirely online in early 2021, and the second half shortly taking place at the end of February 2022. Some key questions covered:What is UNEA? How is it different from other environment conferences, like the climate  COP?What should we expect from UNEA5.2 at the end of February?Which issues at UNEA5.2 are particularly contentious?To learn more about the 5th session of UNEA, please visit:IGES' UNEA-5.2 Special Webpage: https://www.iges.or.jp/en/projects/unea5-2IGES' UNEA-5.1 Special Webpage: https://www.iges.or.jp/en/projects/unea5-1About our co-hosts:Andre Mader leads the IGES unit on Biodiversity and Forests and is adviser to an IPBES Technical Support Unit hosted by IGES.  He has a background in conservation management, science and policy, and has practiced mostly in Switzerland, Canada, the UAE, and his land of birth, South Africa.Bob McDonald leads our Technology Solutions unit at IGES.  He has decades of experience in IT and Web Development, but is an interested outsider when it comes to environmental issues.  He loves making stuff, both physical and digital. Erin Kawazu is a Programme Coordinator in Knowledge Management and Communications, Strategic Management Office at IGES.  Her background is in environmental health sciences, a field that combines environmental science and public health.

This episode is full of weird 3D printers, starting with a 3D printing simulation from Spee3D. Tom and Stefan further talk about a new dynamic build platform concept to reduce the support amount and a Japanese project that converts a 3D printer into a production line plus the Thermorph concept that allows automatically folding 3D prints using a smart combination of PLA and TPU. Then they discuss the morality of selling a community firmware as their own and that the popular Dragon Hotends that seems to be wiped from the market as a result of SliceEngineerings patent on it. The Q&A section covers the question of when slicers will finally support real CAD data in the form of STEP or IGES files.
