POPULARITY
In Nature's Memory: Behind the Scenes at the World's Natural History Museums (Penguin, 2025), zoologist Jack Ashby shares hidden stories behind the world's iconic natural history museums, from enormous mounted whale skeletons to cabinets of impossibly tiny insects. Look closely and all is not as it seems: these museums are not as natural, Ashby shows us, as we might think. Mammals dominate the displays, for example, even though they make up less than 1 percent of species; there are many more male specimens than females; and often a museum's most popular draw – the dinosaur skeletons – are not actually real. Over 99 percent of museum collections are held in immense, unseen storehouses. And it's becoming clear that these institutions have not been as honest about their complex histories as they should be. Yet natural history museums are also the only museums that can save the world – it is just starting to be understood that their vast collections are indispensable resources in the fight against biodiversity loss and climate catastrophe. Weaving together fresh historical research with surprising insights, Nature's Memory is a love letter to the joys, eccentricities and planet-saving potential of the world's best-loved museums. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Godfather of Strength and Conditioning. Fresh from the misty mountains of Peru, Al and Hask are joined by Hask's former Conditioning Coach at Wasps, Craig White; a man whose influence has shaped the face of High-Performance Coaching in rugby. With troublesome tales of managing Trevor Leota at Wasps alongside Shaun Edwards, Craig shares the biggest lessons he learned working with Clive Woodward and Warren Gatland on the 2005 and 2009 Lions Tours. For Craig, everything changed when he took a breather from the hyper-masculine world of rugby just months before the 2011 World Cup to go on a yoga retreat that opened his eyes to mindfulness, nature and a more spiritual style of coaching… Season 5 is sponsored by Continental Tyres.

[Note: we explain TMK's new structure from 0:00-10:28, so skip that to get straight into the episode] We dive into the market for catastrophe bonds (or, “cat bonds”) and talk about how this complex financial instrument is sold as the silver bullet for climate finance — especially for under-developed countries that are at risk of devastation from disasters like hurricanes, floods, earthquakes — which is meant to be an alternative to insurance for places that cannot access or afford policies. In reality, they have given institutions like the World Bank the perfect neoliberal policy for climate (in)action, they have provided extremely lucrative windfalls for hedge funds, and they have left people in devastated regions with nothing to show for their expensive premiums. ••• Pre-order Jathan's new book! https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520398078/the-mechanic-and-the-luddite ••• Subscribe to Ed's substack: https://substack.com/@thetechbubble —— ••• The Harsh Reality of ‘Hurricane Insurance' https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2024-jamaica-hurricane-catastrophe-bonds/ ••• The Risky Business of Predicting Where Climate Disaster Will Hit https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-flood-fire-climate-risk-analytics/ ••• In Nature's Casino https://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/26/magazine/26neworleans-t.html Subscribe to hear more analysis and commentary in our premium episodes every week! https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills Hosted by Jathan Sadowski (bsky.app/profile/jathansadowski.com) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.x.com/bigblackjacobin).

Batten down the hatches, because the cost of environmental damage continues to rise.Hurricanes and natural disasters pose a threat to leveraged credits. This year's Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June to November, has caused significant physical and financial damage to borrowers and civilians located mainly in the southeastern part of the US. Damages from hurricanes Helene and Milton, specifically, are estimated by published reports to be around $50bn each, ranking them among the costliest disasters in recent history.In this week's episode of Cloud 9fin hosted by leveraged finance editor David Bell, senior reporter Sasha Padbidri talks to Karen Clark, a Nobel Prize-winning pioneer in the catastrophe modeling space. Clark was also the subject of Michael Lewis' 2007 article In Nature's Casino for The New York Times Magazine, which examines the topic of catastrophe modeling in great detail.Together, they discuss how the technology of catastrophe modeling has advanced since the 1980s and why understanding these risks are critical for company executives and insurers as natural disasters continue to reshape the financial landscape.
In this week's Gramophone Podcast, Editor Martin Cullingford is joined by the conductor Semyon Bychkov to talk about his new recording with the Czech Philharmonic for the Pentatone label of the music of Dvořák - the composer's last three symphonies, Nos 7, 8 and 9, along with three concert overtures, In Nature's Realm, Carnival and Othello.
Dat het steeds warmer wordt is vooral in grote steden een probleem. Wetenschappers werken wereldwijd aan technologieën die steden koeler moeten maken. In Nature staat een groot artikel dat een aantal oplossingen op een rij zet. Het artikel heeft de kop: "De coolste wetenschap om hitte in de stad minder gevaarlijk te maken" Sommige oplossingen zijn high tec, zoals nieuwe materialen die in de zomer koelen en in de winter verwarmen, anderen zijn erg simpel; het wit verven van zwart asfalt bijvoorbeeld.

In Nature's Wild: Love, Sex, and Law in the Caribbean (Duke UP, 2021), Andil Gosine engages with questions of humanism, queer theory, and animality to examine and revise understandings of queer desire in the Caribbean. Surveying colonial law, visual art practices, and contemporary activism, Gosine shows how the very concept of homosexuality in the Caribbean (and in the Americas more broadly) has been overdetermined by a colonially influenced human/animal divide. Gosine refutes this presupposed binary and embraces animality through a series of case studies: a homoerotic game called puhngah, the institution of gender-based dress codes in Guyana, and efforts toward the decriminalization of sodomy in Trinidad and Tobago—including the work of famed activist Colin Robinson, paintings of human animality by Guadeloupean artist Kelly Sinnapah Mary, and Gosine's own artistic practice. In so doing, he troubles the ways in which individual and collective anxieties about “wild natures” have shaped the existence of Caribbean people while calling for a reassessment of what political liberation might look like.

In honor of Earth Day, we take a break from the chronicles about the Inca Empire conquest. Instead, I honor and revisit Silent Spring, Rachel Carson's groundbreaking book which ignited the environmental conscience of humanity. Also, inspired by a parallel that occured to me as I watched "The 3 Body Problem", a contemporary tale about an alien invasion and humanity's struggle to hold on to science and our Home, I propose a renewed commitment to hold on to Wonder and Humility; focused on the realization that Silent Spring continues to whisper: In Nature, Nothing exists Alone.
In Nature, nothing exists alone. So join Andrea and Paul as they discuss episodes 5-8 of the Netflix series Three-Body Problem.

Kristy Hamilton visits Google to discuss her book “Nature's Wild Ideas: How the Natural World is Inspiring Scientific Innovation”. The book is a deep-dive into nature and the many groundbreaking human inventions inspired by the wild. When astronomers wanted a telescope that could capture X-rays from celestial bodies, they looked to the lobster. When doctors wanted a medication that could stabilize Type II diabetic patients, they found their muse in a lizard. When scientists wanted to drastically reduce emissions in cement manufacturing, they observed how corals construct their skeletons in the sea. This is biomimicry in action: taking inspiration from nature to tackle human challenges. In “Nature's Wild Ideas”, Kristy Hamilton goes behind the scenes of some of our most unexpected innovations. She traverses frozen waterfalls, treks through cloudy forests, discovers nests in the Mojave desert, scours intertidal zones and takes us to the deepest oceans to introduce us to the animals and plants that have inspired everything from cargo routing systems to non-toxic glues, as well as the men and women who followed that first spark of “I wonder” all the way to its conclusion. While the joy of scientific discovery is front and center, “Nature's Wild Ideas” is also a love letter to nature—complete with a deep message of conservation: If we are to continue learning from the creatures around us, we must protect their untamed homelands.

From the day he was found in a Harrods bag as a baby on the steps of Guy's Hospital in London, author Andy McNab has carpe'd the diem out of life. As a member of the SAS he was at the centre of covert operations for nine years on five continents. Now he's one of the world's best-selling authors. An astonishing achievement given he had the reading age of an eleven-year-old when he joined the army and read his first book by his seventeenth birthday. Ten years ago, Briony May Williams became so unwell with polycystic ovary syndrome that she needed to take time away from her job as a language teacher. A friend at the school suggested baking would be a distraction and within five years, she was a semi-finalist on the Great British Bake Off. Since then, she's gone from contestant to presenter – fronting tv shows like “Food Unwrapped” and “Escape to the Country”. Denisa Gannon defied the odds to become the first Roma lawyer in England and Wales. Born in a small village in Czechia, she was the fifth of six siblings and the only one to go to a mainstream school. Even after passing the equivalent of A-levels, because of her ethnicity, she faced prejudice and discrimination and was exploited by people to such an extent that she decided to help herself, and others in similar situations, by studying law.

Angela Barnes was brought up on comedy. She and her dad Derek would go to stand-up shows together and when they listened to comedians on the radio he would say “Why don't you have a go at that?, Angela. Why don't you give comedy a try?”. For a long time, she felt she couldn't. But when Derek died suddenly at the age of 60 Angela remembered his words and today she appears on the very shows she used to listen to with her dad. The National Poet of Wales, Hanan Issa, has that wonderful advantage of being able to see the world via a bi-cultural lens; she's Welsh-Iraqi. Hanan's also a filmmaker and scriptwriter and her monologue 'With Her Back Straight' was performed as part of The Hijabi Monologues at the Bush Theatre in London and she worked on the much loved and lauded Channel 4 comedy series We Are Lady Parts. If you watch Britain's Got Talent, the chances are you saw Richard Essien introduce himself as the street magician Magical Bones. His shows combine magic, illusions and street-dance culture and before he fully committed to his magic career, he was a hip-hop dancer working with huge music acts; form The Black-Eyed Peas to Alicia Keys and even private events for Madonna. All that plus The Inheritance Tracks of comedian Lou Sanders - and we join Jason Williams ...In Nature. Presenters: Nikki Bedi and Jon Kay Producer: Ben Mitchell
Suzi Quatro grew up in Detroit in a very musical family. It was, at the age of six, after seeing Elvis perform on television that made Suzi decide music was to be her life. She's also an actor, poet, has a new album called 'Face to Face' with KT Tunstall, is on tour...and she once broke Alice Cooper's nose. Shortly after they got married, the best-selling author Amy McCulloch and her new husband headed to South America for a six-month backpacking adventure. Then, one night, Amy heard that a cabin had suddenly become available on a ship heading to the Antarctic. She was desperate to take it. He wanted to stay. This thrilling real story was the spark for the inspiration behind her new book 'Midnight'. Picture the scene...Sheffield in the mid-nineties. Two cheeky teenage lads sitting together in the school canteen tucking into burger and chips for lunch or maybe a bacon sandwich. Since then, Henry Firth and Ian Theasby are the plant-based chefs behind the hugely successful “BOSH!” and whose new cookbook 'Meat' sees them make bacon from bananas and chicken from peas. All that plus The Inheritance Tracks of journalist, broadcaster and BBC Explainer–in-Chief, Ros Atkins - and we join Nicky Dorrington ...In Nature.

Jon Culshaw's big break came when convincing the then Prime Minister, Tony Blair, in a prank phone call that HE was the then Conservative leader William Hague - an infamous moment in his life for which he was called an imposter. Since then, he's built up a repertoire of 350 celebrity voices, starred in 23 series of Dead Ringers and joins us live from the Edinburgh Festival where he's starring in his new show, Imposter Syndrome. Tommy Jessop is an actor, a campaigner and has just had his first book published, 'A Life Worth Living'. In 2007, he became the first actor with Down Syndrome to star in a primetime BBC Drama in the film ‘Coming Down the Mountain' and has gone onto tour theatres as Hamlet and played Terry Boyle in 'Line of Duty'. This year's Great British Sewing Bee champion Asmaa Al-allak spent her formative years growing up in Iraq. Her grandmother was a seamstress who passed her skills on to Asmaa's mother, who in turn taught her and after winning the series, Asmaa said it's fair to say ‘it's in the blood'. After leaving Iraq at the age of 14, having lived through the Iran-Iraq war, Asmaa and her family moved to Durham where her father was working as a scientist. She went on to study medicine and is now a consultant breast surgeon at a cancer centre in Cardiff. Also - the first in our '...In Nature' series where we hear from artists and creatives about how they are inspired by the natural world. Today is the turn of printmaker and wood engraver Molly Lemon. And...the Inheritance Tracks of Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman. Presenters: Nikki Bedi and Jon Kay Producer: Ben Mitchell
Today we're talking about the 6th permaculture design principle: Make No Waste. In Nature, "waste" = food. How can we design our homesteads and the various life support systems on them such that the "waste" from one becomes the food for another? How many energetic loops and connection can we create between elements, systems and organisms? We'll discuss one of the simple tools for enacting the Waste = Food principle - called Input/Output/Intrinsic Analysis. We'll also talk about the switch that flips once you change the way you view what most of our society calls "waste" and junk piles start looking like diamond piles. The more "waste" we can eliminate by creating systems that cycle energy better, the more resilient and independent we become, and the healthier the ecology becomes. ==================================== Need some help getting the "birds eye view" of your property and its surrounds to help you design your sovereign homestead? Check out our Hi-Definition Contour Base Map package. This package includes: Hi-definition LiDAR contour map layer (contour lines can spaced at whatever scale you desire - as tight as 1 foot or less if you desire). Aspect Map Layer - color-code your entire property by which direction it faces - very helpful in identifying ideal growing zones and microclimates for specific plantings. Hillshade Layer - for easily visualizing landform across your entire property. Slope Layer - color-code your entire property based on the % grade - very helpful for access planning, living systems establishment and site selection for buildings etc. Deliverables include: Hi-definition .jpeg or .pdf of your entire property and/or its contributing watersheds, at whatever size you desire (if you wish to print a poster and have it laminated as an iterative design tool images can be generated at whatever size the poster shop will print). .KML file of the contour lines for importing and 3D viewing in Google Earth Pro (free to download) - this is a very helpful and accessible design tool. We also offer consulting calls if you need some design help or a fresh perspective - see the Virtual Property Design Review for details. ==================================================== What Plants Crave T-shirts And Stickers! Another fun way you can support the show AND start some fun and interesting conversations along the way. For those of you that have seen Idiocracy, you know what this is all about. For those of you that haven't...watch this.

In Nature staat een stuk met als kop: "Huge volcanic eruptions: time to prepare''. De wereld geeft honderden miljoenen uit aan het voorspellen van de banen van asteroïden die eventueel de aarde zouden kunnen raken. Het geld dat beschikbaar is voor het voorspellen van grote vulkaanuitbarstingen is daarmee vergeleken helemaal niets. Dat kan en moet anders. Vulkaanuitbarstingen kunnen namelijk de hele aarde ernstig ontregelen. Geochemicus onderzoeker gesteente van vulkanen Janne Koornneef is het helemaal eens met het pleidooi in Nature. Vanaf IJsland, terwijl ze onderzoek doet naar een pas uitgebarsten vulkaan, staat ze BNR te woord. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Nature's Broken Clocks: Reimagining Time in the Face of the Environmental Crisis (University of Regina Press, 2020), Paul Huebener argues that "the environmental crisis is, in many ways, a crisis of time." From the distress cries of birds that no longer know when to migrate, to the rapid dying of coral reefs, to the quickening pace of extreme weather events, the patterns and timekeeping of the natural world are falling apart. We have broken nature's clocks. Lying hidden at the root of this problem are the cultural narratives that shape our actions and horizons of thought, but as Paul Huebener shows, we can bring about change by developing a critical literacy of time. Moving from circadian rhythms and the revival of ancient frozen bacteria to camping advertisements and the politics of oil pipelines, Nature's Broken Clocks turns to works of fiction and poetry, examining how cultural narratives of time are connected to the problems of ecological collapse and what we might do to fix them.

What's it like to "discover" a high-quality natural area in the Midwest? We talk to naturalist Steve Sass, who helped identify Indiana's Lydick Bog in 2014. He is joined by fellow naturalist Amanda Smith. The two are responsible for the educational website Indiana Nature and for the very popular Facebook page IN Nature. We talk about the variety of plants and animals in northwest Indiana and their efforts to teach the public how to be good stewards of the land.
In Nature - being alone but feeling so spacious to take time to listen to the river sing & admire the life that is all around - abundant waking up in Spring
“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.” ~ C.S. Lewis You are to be thanked and congratulated you for being here! Either as a regular subscriber and part of the MZD community, or maybe a first time listener, chances are, you are here for two reasons — you love Nature, and, you have a desire to grow and become the best possible version of yourself for Optimum Personal Transformation. The Greeks had a word for this — Arete´, which roughly translates to Virtue or Excellence. Throughout the past several episodes, we've been taking a look at the concept of cultivating your “Garden of Well-being”; that is, intentionally and thoughtfully, mindfully seeking ways to weed out the undesirable thoughts, vices and habits in our lives, and to plant, nurture and grow more goodness, virtue, and excellence in its place; things that signify mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health. Things that aid us in becoming our best selves, and in turn, help make the world a better, more beautiful place to live in. It's kind of a no-brainer question really. “Do you want to want to be happy and reach your full potential in your life? Or are you content to just be a mediocre version of yourself?” If you answered, “Yes, I want to live up to my full potential”, then good for you! This is a sign of mental and emotional health. To be discontented with mediocrity in one's self is not a bad thing. To want to be the healthiest human being you can possibly be should be the goal of every one of us. Put another way, as Krishnamurti says, “It is no measure of your health to be well-adjusted to such a profoundly sick society.” Sadly, most of the planet has fallen asleep, and either doesn't know, doesn't care, or is afraid to leave their comfort zone to do something about it. But not you. That's why you're here. You're on a journey. A quest to be your best possible self through connection with Nature. There is one caveat to all this personal growth stuff though. And that's pride and the feeling of being better than, or having arrived. With pride comes stagnation and the unwillingness, or even the ability to Listen. And when you no longer listen, and can no longer hear, you stop growing. That's why today we're going to talk about cultivating Humility. Humility is a slippery, elusive and almost vaporous thing. Like seeing an angel, or shadow out of the corner of your eye. The moment you focus on it, think you've acquired it and the “piety” that comes with it, in that moment it begins to evaporate. The fire turns to smoke and disappears into thin air. “I'm proud of my humility!” See what I mean? Rick Warren tells us that humility is not denying your strengths. It is about being honest about your weaknesses. C.S. Lewis put it another way, “Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.” Humility is close kin to Gratitude. It is impossible to be Grateful without having a humble heart. So what does humility look like? Humility is letting someone go ahead of you in line when you notice they are in a hurry. It is choosing to clean your office bathroom, even though you own the company. In Nature, it is the mother Great-Horned Owl incubating her eggs for a full month, never leaving the nest even once, until her brood puts on a second set of down feathers. Native American hunters respectfully asking permission, with a heart of gratitude, to take the life of a deer or bison in order to provide food and clothing for the tribe. A mighty oak giving shade and shelter to a sparrow. It is God becoming man, though King of the Universe, choosing birth in a smelly stable to serve and save mankind… I think you get the picture. So with these images in mind, let's begin today's meditation with a heart filled with gratitude. MEDITATION When you're ready… Today we stand at the edge of the Grand Canyon. With a heart that is full, yet small. Silent. In awe. Here, nearly a billion tons of rock have been carved out of the ground. All of the river water on Earth could fill this canyon and it would still only be half full. Standing at its widest point you stare 18 miles across to the other side. This canyon stretches for 277 miles and is more than a mile deep, so vast it can even be seen from space. A beautiful mystery of this blue planet, the question fills you with wonder. “How did the Colorado River, only one tenth the size of the mighty Mississippi carve its way into this beautiful, enormous canyon?” No one knows for sure. It boggles the mind. Layers of strata and geology, with their hues of burnt red, amber, golden yellows, greens, browns and even black earth tones of endless variety tell only a part of the story of this place. The ancient story of eons and time almost before time. Layer upon layer of schist, shale, sandstone and limestone, serve as a reminder that life is beautiful, full of wonder and mystery. Majestic and timeless. Knowledge is fathomless and unending. The Universe is big. We are small. As your tiny mind struggles to take it all in and absorb the details and meaning of this place, you look down and catch yourself, almost losing your footing. This is a dangerous place, but the danger is part of its incredible beauty. It is a place to be appreciated, yes. But first and foremost, it is a place to be respected. With this realization comes a depth of appreciation and humility you have never known before. A true view of life. An honest appraisal of your own smallness and frailty. And deep, sincere appreciation of the fact that you have been invited in to play an important role in this gift called Life. You smile and slowly bow your head and say, “Thank You!” Let's stay here a little longer and try to soak it all in… “To go far, you must begin near. And the nearest step is the most important one.” ~ Krishnamurti And I would add, be wise and humble enough to take the step nearest you with a grateful spirit. Photo by Gautier Salles on Unsplash
In Nature′s Evil: A Cultural History of Natural Resources (Polity Press, 2021), Alexander Etkind views the history of humankind through the prism of natural resources – how we acquire them, use them, value them, trade them, exploit them. History needs a cast of characters, and in this story the leading actors are peat and hemp, grain and iron, fur and oil, each with its own tale to tell. The uneven spread of available resources was the prime mover for trade, which in turn led to the accumulation of wealth, the growth of inequality and the proliferation of evil. Different sorts of raw material have different political implications and give rise to different social institutions. When a country switches its reliance from one commodity to another, this often leads to wars and revolutions. But none of these crises goes to waste – they all lead to dramatic changes in the relations between matter, labour and the state. Our world is the result of a fragile pact between people and nature. As we stand on the verge of climate catastrophe, nature has joined us in our struggle to distinguish between good and evil. And since we have failed to change the world, now is the moment to understand how it works.

Witam Cię serdecznie w kolejnym nagraniu pod tytułem Yerba Meet Goście czyli rozmów przy Yerba Mate. Gościem tego odcinka jest Maciej Ulatowski, mieszkaniec Gminy Sobótka, miłośnik aktywnego spędzania czasu w szczególności w naturze. Stąd też profil, który prowadzi o nazwie "In nature". Jak sam powiedział w nagraniu, w lesie czuje się dobrze i odzyskuje tam wewnętrzny spokój. Na co dzień prowadzi własną firmę, ale nie przeszkadza mu to w niczym, żeby rozwijać swoje pasje i zainteresowania. Od lat aktywnie uprawia Nordic Walking, którego jest instruktorem. W ostatnich latach u Macieja zaczął dominować temat rowerów. W swojej kolekcji ma już trzy różne egzemplarze, na których pokonuje liczne kilometry. W zależności od pogody, pory roku i planów używa innego sprzętu. To nie wszystko! Kilka lat temu Maciej rozpoczął nowe wyzwanie a zarazem rozwój swojej pasji, która jest z nim od lat a mianowicie kurs Przewodnika Sudeckiego, który zdał za pierwszym podejściem. Tym samym od ponad dwóch lat pełni zaszczytną funkcję przewodnika zarówno dla lokalnych wycieczek jak i w rejonie dolnego śląska. W tym nagraniu będziecie mogli poznać lepiej temat związany z Nordic Walking, a przede wszystkim zaznajomić się z tematyką Przewodnika Sudeckiego czyli między innymi jak uzyskać odznakę oraz kim jest i jakie ma przed sobą wyzwania. Nie pozostaje mi nic innego jak życzyć miłego oglądania i słuchania. Oczywiście jeśli poszukiwalibyście przewodnika sudeckiego lub chcieli skorzystać z kursu Nordic Walking lub innej zaplanowanej formy aktywności to mogę śmiało polecić wam usługi Macieja.

There’s a percentage at which rate the Power-Elite allow us to influence the system: 30%.

This week London's Ultra Low Emission Zone was extended to 18 times its previous size. In an effort to cut levels of various nitrogen oxides and other gases dangerous to humans from urban air, cities encouraging lower emission vehicles is a trend soon stretching across the UK and other European countries. But some are sceptical as to their efficacy. Dr Gary Fuller of Imperial College London is author of The Invisible Killer, and has been studying the air in London and elsewhere since these zones began. As COP26 begins in Glasgow, a wealth of climate science is being published and publicised. Victoria Gill describes a couple of stories this week that point out quite how complex the science is, let alone the diplomacy and economics. Whilst the world's forests taken as a whole undoubtedly still capture more CO2 than they release, research this week shows that ten of Unesco's World Heritage Forests - making up for an area twice the size of Germany - have in the last ten years actually moved from being a carbon sink to a carbon source. There are several reasons, land use pressure being one of them, but also extreme climate events like wildfires (and even a hurricane in one instance) have tipped the balance, and show what how sharp the knife edge is for natural resilience. Meanwhile, the Financial Times reports that scientists have found an unexpected outflow of methane into the atmosphere from a site very close to the COP26 conference centre in Glasgow, highlighting just how great a challenge net zero will be. Alongside some of humans' most earth-changing achievements, the domestication of the horse stands as something outstanding in human history. Without it, war, traded and culture would be unrecognizable. But quite when and where the modern horse originated has been something of a mystery. In Nature this week, researchers have published an extensive study into ancient DNA that seems to pinpoint finally a moment and a place where this happened, 4,200 years ago. Geoff Marsh takes Marnie for a canter through the mystery. Presenter: Marnie Chesterton Producer: Alex Mansfield Made in association with The Open University
Every life matters. In Nature, nothing is insignificant. Every member of an ecosystem is needed to help that community thrive, yet as humans we often pretend like we are the only ones who matter. There is a lot that the natural world can teach us about caring for each other and our planet. Today we're joined by Melissa Sciacca, US executive director for the globally-respected David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust based in east Africa. The Sheldrick Trust manages large areas of land in Kenya, protecting elephants and rhinos from threats like poaching, and caring for orphaned wildlife before releasing them back into the wild. Melissa gives us a window into the experiences of African wildlife, what we can learn from them, and how we can ensure that these beautiful animals continue to grow in numbers for generations to come. Learn more about the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust at https://www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/.CHALLENGE: Adopt a species. Pick an animal you love and learn more about the challenges they face and how we can protect them. Take action in whatever way makes sense to you, and share what you learn with others.TAKEAWAYS: 1: We are all members of a global community, and if we can act from that understanding we can change the world. 2: There is a lot to learn from Nature and the animal kingdom which could help us rethink our world for the better. 3: You can be an ambassador for the causes you care about.Visit www.wecanremaketheworld.com for more info and resources.
In Nature there is no waste, one's systems waste is another systems food. Humans' diets are so varied we have all the minerals and elements needed in farming. But this combination of wonderful elements usually becomes pollution, and we have to set up expensive industrial plants to try and mitigate any damage. The answer? Composting toilets. I first came across a simple system when I visited the artist Hundertwasser in the early eighties at his home in the Bay of Islands. He just had a simple bucket that he added a handful sawdust to it at each use. There was no smell! If any organic matter is left submerged in water it makes for anaerobic decomposition. It's smelly – you'll know what I mean if you've ever left even grass clippings in a wheel barrow of water by mistake. If you keep the water out and you have aerobic decomposition, there is very low smell, especially if the composting loo is well ventilated. We have been using this system since we moved into the eco village in 1986. I still remember the kids were ashamed to bring their friends home from school because of our weird toilet! We soon moved onto a more sophisticated outhouse which is basically two large compost bins with a room above them and a tall chimney that means air is constantly sucked through the compost keeping it dry and evaporating the urine that ends up in it. After one year, the active waste and sawdust pile is moved into the second chamber to compost again. I have to service this once a year. It takes about 2 hours, and that includes transporting the compost from the second chamber to spread under my fruit trees as mulch. When you see this compost you wouldn't know it wasn't straight from a garden shop. Commercially, you can buy units that use a similar system but are much more compact. We have one of these as well now as our second toilet. The other system, we affectionately call the ‘poo fryer', has an element that dries out the feaces and urine. These are often found at DOC huts along with a small solar power panel to run it. Unfortunately, with our current system once human waste is combined with a lot of water it becomes very hard to extract the nutrients again. The other problem is that often chemical, pharmaceutical and heavy metal contaminants end up in the mix as well. At present, composting loos are mainly found at homes of bioneers like ourselves, remote areas and outdoor festivals. We set up 4 bucket composting loos for my daughter's wedding last year and they went without a hitch. We just used the bucket and lid combo the sell for chemical toilets for caravans and boats. Much nicer using sawdust and easier to empty too. Internationally, compost loos are coming into urban areas as well, in offices and blocks of flats. The compost is being used in gardens or to make biogas for heating or cooking. I predict in twenty years' time you will be using one too.
Synopsis For the 1965-1966 season of the New York Philharmonic, Leonard Bernstein planned a series of concerts titled “Symphonic Forms in the 20th Century,” programming works by Mahler, Sibelius and other great European masters. Bernstein also included American symphonies, including, on today’s date in 1966, the belated premiere performance of David Diamond’s Symphony No. 5. Diamond began work on his Fifth Symphony in 1947, and its original inspiration was two-fold: Diamond wanted to compose a symphony for Bernstein to premiere and to translate into music the vivid emotions he experienced after attending a performance of Sophocles’ tragedy, Oedipus the King. But Diamond found recreating the Oedipus story harder than he thought. He ended up putting his Fifth aside, and finished and premiered his Sixth, Seventh, and Eight Symphonies before coming to the realization that, “Program symphonies were just not for me.” Years later, when Bernstein asked him “What ever happened to that symphony you were going to write for me,” Diamond explained all this to Bernstein, who replied, “Well, it’s about time you did something about it—it’s silly to have one symphony that just isn’t there!” And so, Diamond set to work completing a non-programmatic Fifth, dedicated to Leonard Bernstein. Music Played in Today's Program David Diamond (1915-2005 ) Symphony No. 5 Juilliard Orchestra; Christopher Keene, cond.

In this episode we'll be continuing our adventures with Phil and the woodland creatures of In Nature's School, by Lillian Gask. If you would like to listen to the first part of this story it is episode 6, released on February 3rd, 2021. When we left off, Phil was speaking with Father Beaver while keeping an eye on the banks for the Wolverine. At Father Beaver's suggestion, Phil heads out and visits the home of the musk rats, also known as ondatras.
In the aquarium hobby, we need to compromise, accommodate- to be flexible. And that’s not always a bad thing. In Nature, fishes need to be flexible to adapt to a changing environment.. we should, too. Because when we’re open to being flexible, all kinds of good stuff can happen!
This week we'll be reading excerpts from In Nature's School, a children's story by Lilian Gask. This story tells the tale of Phil, a seven year old orphan, who, after suffering a brain fever at the orphanage, runs away to the woods and makes the acquaintance of several different animals.

In COVID-related AI news, another concerning report, this time in Nature Medicine, found “serious concerns” with 20,000 studies on AI systems in clinical trials, with many reporting only the best-case scenarios; in response, an international consortium has developed CONSORT-AI, reporting guidelines for clinical trials involving AI. In Nature, an open dataset provides a collection and overview of governmental interventions in response to COVID-19. In regular AI news, the DoD wraps up its 2020 AI Symposium. And the White House nominates USMC Maj. Gen. Groen to lead the JAIC. The latest report from the NIST shows that facial recognition technology still struggles to identify people of color. Portland, Oregon passes the toughest ban on facial recognition technology in the US. And The Guardian uses GPT-3 to generate some hype. In research, OpenAI demonstrates the ability to apply transformer-based language models to the task of automated theorem proving. Research from Berkeley, Columbia, and Chicago proposes a new test to measure a text model’s multitask accuracy, with 16,000 multiple choice questions across 57 task areas. A report from AI Now takes a look at regulating biometrics, which includes tech such as facial recognition. And the 37th International Conference on Machine Learning makes its proceedings available online. Click here to visit our website and explore the links mentioned in the episode.
In Nature, the disintegration of former life is part of all cycles Grandpa Bill looks at how to gain the most benefit from them, and thereby accomplish the greatest benefit to others in the process a society struggling to free themselves from the system of slavery to laws and religious edicts that defy the Natural Laws of Life written on the hearts of every soul; yes, beneath layers of unconscious guilt and fear, in most cases here on earth, but written there none-the-less. Subconsciously, the people are rising up against the tyranny of the oppression orchestrated upon the people of the earth now for thousands of years. Respect for all of life, and respect for the Natural Order, becomes the central themes for all on the path of autonomy. the right or condition of self-government. Immanuel Kant was an influential German philosopher in the Age of Enlightenment. In his doctrine of transcendental idealism, he argued that space, time, and causation are mere sensibilities; "things-in-themselves" exist, but their nature is unknowable Kantian ethics are deontological, revolving entirely around duty rather than emotions or end goals. All actions are performed in accordance with some underlying maxim or principle, which are vastly different from each other; it is according to this that the moral worth of any action is judged. "It is impossible to think of anything at all in the world, or indeed even beyond it, that could be considered good without limitation except a good will." The theory was developed as a result of Enlightenment rationalism, and states that an action can only be good if its maxim—the principle behind it—is duty to the moral law, and arises from a sense of duty in the actor. Central to Kant's construction of the moral law is the categorical imperative, which acts on all people, regardless of their interests or desires. The claim that all humans are due dignity and respect as autonomous agents means that medical professionals should be happy for their treatments to be performed on anyone and that patients must never be treated merely as useful for society. Kant's approach to sexual ethics emerged from his view that humans should never be used merely as a means to an end, leading him to regard sexual activity as degrading and to condemn certain specific sexual practices – for example, extramarital sex. Feminist philosophers have used Kantian ethics to condemn practices such as prostitution and pornography because they treat women as means. Kant also believed that, because animals do not possess rationality, we cannot have duties to them except indirect duties not to develop immoral Thank you for your order!

Padrim (apoiar o canal): https://www.padrim.com.br/elanmarinho Esse vídeo faz parte da série Definições, em que faço uma introdução a noções da filosofia. Dessa vez, expliquei o que é o Naturalismo Ontológico. Na explicação sobre o que é naturalismo, apresentei um cenário hipotético para diferenciar um naturalista de um não-naturalista. Ao explicar o que é ontologia, apresentei questões ontológicas clássicas. Falei sobre o problema do que é o físico. Dei motivos para ser um naturalista ontológico. Por fim, deixei questões de revisão e para pensar. Agradecimento especial pelas participações involuntárias de João Luca, Tássia Nathália, Gisele Guimarães e Toddy Toledo. * * * * * * Bibliografia Bricker, Phillip. (2016) "Ontological Commitment".

Q:If you catch the carrot tops going to seed, can you remove the flower heads? Will it force the plant to send more energy to the carrots underground? A:If the carrot is flowering you have waited too long to harvest so if that is happening and it is not the 2nd year you need to harvest sooner. if you were to cut the flower off to save the carrot the carrot has already changed inside to start seed production and can become bitter if eaten 2. Q: Kathy asks Is there a bagged type of compost you are recommending to use in the raised bed? (sorry if this a redundant question) A: Raised Garden Bed Mix is similar to potting mix. If you were to make your own raised garden bed soil mix, you could use 50% garden soil and 50% potting mix for a good drainage and aeration (if you use your own garden soil it will have weed seeds in it). Garden centers also make bagged soils specific to raised beds, making this the ideal choice if you are able to find a local garden center that sales it by bulk it is much cheaper. But if you are looking at bagged soil. There are a number a great companies out their here is what you are going to look for in a compost/raised bed mix peat moss topsoil compost and vermiculite 3. Q:I have 6 - 4x8 foot raised garden beds that were put in about 5 years ago. I was afraid to use treated wood as I did not want to contaminated the soil or ingest chemicals so I used regular wood. Of course, the carpenter ants loved this wood and now all the boards are deteriorated and collapsing. So they all must be replaced. I cannot afford cedar. The treaded wood has warnings about causing cancer on them. Do you think I could safely use PVC planks or do you have any other suggestions. Warmest regards,Mary A: Thank you for the email and the question. Yes you can use PVC planks to replace your raised bed. We chose for our raised bed to use treated lumber as it is treated with a copper chemical and the research we have done show little to no leaching from the boards to the soil. Some will use treated lumber and cover the areas where the soil touched the lumber with a plastic. For PVC planks the only other suggestion would be if you can pick a light color so it does not absorb the heart as much and the soil in the summer does not over heat and dry out as fast. 4 Q:What is the best way to harvest microgreens? Will they continue to produce as you harvest them? Doreen A: Thank you for your email. The best way to harvest microgreens is to plant them in a large 10x20 flat in 3rds in succession a few days apart. As the microgreens sprout their first set of true leaves that is the time you can harvest them they will be around two inches tall and it will be about 2 or 3 week after planting.Just cut them with a scissor at soil level Microgreens do not regrow after they have been harvested. You will find that if you plant peas and the harvest them above the first set of leaves that you may get some to regrow but it is really not worth the effort it is best to replant for another harvest. 5Q: Emily asks my beets say they tolerate Frost but if we need it a certain temperature to germinate should I germinate inside and put outside in the chilly weather as soon as I see the green buds? So the green buds can be exposed to 30 and 40 degree weather at night? Q: Beets germinate best when the soil times are 50-80F. Yes beets are tolerant of Frost however if you were to start them inside and then when you see them sprout move them out, the temperature can be too much and can kill them without hardening them . You can start them indoors and then in 2 or 3 weeks once they have come up thin them and harden them off and plant them. The other option and what we are doing this year is, we will be planting our beet seeds when the soil temps are around 40F and these seeds will come up when they are ready as they would in nature. In Nature the plant drops it seeds in the fall and the seeds set dormant until the temps are right and then they sprout 6 bud writes in Q: I'm growing tomatoes in fabric bags this year.

Your true nature is Balance... YOU are not "IN" Nature... YOU ARE NATURE. But.... We develop a mind that comes up with a story and a narrative that says that we ARE NOT... and the unease that is created between your connected HIGHER TRUE SELF... and this MIND that is created which says you are not enough can ruin or even END lives.. Today I share a method of 2 statements that help me in the moment measure and adjust how I'm feeling my true balanced state is. This is an episode that came through me in a big way today and I hope it may add some value to your experience : ) MUCH LOVE TODAY !!!!! Likeattractslike11.com

Thank You. We are not connected to Nature. We are inherently, intimately and intrinsically Nature. The wind agrees. It is the very last day of August, the end of the summer. I'm sitting in leaves so dry and crisp with scars of their history, holes, through them. And yet it was only a few weeks ago it seems, that each one of these was fresh and soft and bright green. But the year spins so fast. the change is continual. Now it is only three weeks until Equinox and then the nights will become longer. It feels like a brilliant moment to give thanks. Are there any moments that aren't? Thank you for these changes. Thank you for the scars, the holes in these leaves, thank you for the scars and the holes, the experiences within each one of us. the compost for new growth and changes; In Nature, nothing goes to waste. Nothing. And we too, can make use of all our experiences. Thank you for it all, those that we call 'good' and those that we call 'bad'. Thank you for the ability to name them, to judge them, to label and decide, creating our world as we do. Thank you for this technology to record, and share these sounds. And thank you for this wind. To clean and refresh and bring new weather , news from another place in every atom. Thank you for this Earth, solid beneath us. Endlessly supporting us. her ridiculous abundance giving all the time. Thank you that we might experience being Human. To have eyes! to see each other! Minds to think ideas and mouths to speak them out and ears to hear them come in. Thank you for the range of emotion that comes as we interpret each thought. To be Human! To be in this human suit and to look out through theses eyes and see the essence of ourselves in everything around us. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for this silent August afternoon and the incredible contrast from spring time mornings , of summer nights or the rainy days, the thundery sounds, the sounds when the stream is running. It is dry now. There are deep pools that still remain , but they will sink further and the river bed becomes a magical path. A point in the land where two surfaces meet and you can slip in between the cracks into another dimension. These places exist in the city too. It is where the wild things grow through the concrete. Their hair-like roots growing into the crevices and growing so strong that they can actually lift the concrete. It is when you hear the birds sing suddenly above the traffic. And it is in theses moments that we can slip suddenly into remembering our Union with Nature. they are like secret reminders around us; doorways that go unnoticed. But as soon as we look , they are there. Thank you thank you thank you. Sweet life that we are all. together. Thank you. CHOOSE YOUR GROOVES.

In Nature, everything supports and feeds off of one another. There is no waste, only relationships. It’s a system, an endless web of life and connections. Organic farms know the strength of this system and actively cultivate it, by inviting Nature onto the farm and seeing the farm as a part of the overall ecology of the place. This episode is about connections between animals, soil, and trees, and what one expert has discovered. The system is called Silvopasture. What's that? Tune in to find out.

On Wednesday, the first day of winter, there will be a celebration of the solstice at First Unitarian Church in Baltimore — and, of course, it will be celebrated all around the world. Druids, Wiccans, Pagans and Neopagans everywhere will be hanging the evergreens and mistletoe, lighting candles and burning the Yule log, beating drums, forming circles, chanting and singing. Patricia Montley, a playwright and teacher of playwriting, wrote a book on this celebration of the Earth, and she will be leading the rituals Wednesday night at First Unitarian. She joins Dan to talk about the growing popularity of the winter solstice celebrations, which ties directly to human concerns about climate change. Montley is the author of, “In Nature’s Honor: Myths and Rituals Celebrating the Earth.”Links:http://www.firstunitarian.net/event/winter-solstice-ritual/https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Honor-Myths-Rituals-Celebrating/dp/155896486Xhttp://darkroom.baltimoresun.com/2013/12/celebrating-winter-solstice-at-stonehenge/#1

Biotite is a mineral with certain geological characteristics and was named in honor of a French physicist, Jean-Baptiste Biot. In Nature, biotite is in the form of very thin sheets of minerals and has a unique structure. Biotite deposits are found in many places around the globe but each deposit is different from all the others. The differences between them can be categorized by weight, mass, constituent profile, color, etc. Research on the properties of biotite began in the 1960s and it was soon determined that it was jam packed with minerals. A process was invented to produce a super-concentrate, water purifying liquid from the biotite. The liquid was then filtered and diluted to make Biotite Concentrate (Liquid Crystal Minerals.) This process imitates Nature because when volcanic gases come in contact with water, they produce acidic compounds that, under the right temperature and pressure, in the presence of these biotite deposits, produce the same water purifying effects. As a result of much research and investigation, this Biotite concentrate is now capable of sanitizing water, no matter how polluted it might be, no matter what the contaminants might be or where they may be. This is what makes Biotite such a revolutionary substance–it's ability to clean water no matter what. Martin talks with Biotite founder, Owen Mullen, about the power of Biotite to clean and restucture water. Use the Biotite Concentrate to: soak/wash for produce that's not organically grown. add to hot tubs, jacuzzi, whirlpool, spas, etc., instead of other chemicals - lasts up to eight months between uses. add to a bath to create a mineral spa right in your own bathtub, and at a tiny fraction of the visit to a mineral spring. replace chemicals that are ordinarily used for cleaning, for example, contact lens solutions or washing the kitchen countertops. topical spray for houseplants or in the garden at a dilution level determined through experimentation. Biotite Concentrate can also be diluted at the rate of 1000:1 for agricultural purposes because it improves the moisture characteristics of soil. Add it to the water, stir or agitate, then water your plants. As a foliar spray for orchards, herbs or flowers.

This powerful process also ensures that the treated water, when stored properly, will stay pure for an extended period due to its natural stability.
