Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair says that net zero is politically unachievable without radical rethinking: a shift away from reducing consumption and toward technologies that can remove carbon both at the source and from the atmosphere. So, are carbon capture and carbon removal really viable - and more palatable - alternatives to a rapid fossil fuel phaseout? And is our net zero strategy failing, or simply failing to be explained?Hosts Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac, and Paul Dickinson dive into the heart of these questions and explore what Blair's comments mean for the wider net zero debate. At a time when climate action is becoming increasingly politicised and weaponised, they consider how we might frame net zero as something that improves people's lives, rather than threatening them. And how we can ensure that every credible climate solution stays on the table.With timely and provocative contributions from listeners and friends of the podcast - including former BBC News Science Editor David Shukman and Senior Policy Advisor at Carbonfuture Sebastian Manhart - the hosts ask: can we rescue the net zero brand before it's written off?Learn more

On this Maundy Thursday 2025, we briefly discuss the main issue in the tariff debate illuminated by Chief Justice John Marshall's epic quotation in McColluch v. Maryland over 100 years ago (1819). We then launch into Ninth Circuit US Court of Appeals Judge Bumatay's epic dissent released last month in the latest of several weird iterations of the en banc Duncan v. Bonta. It's a very important case that I hope the US Supreme Court grants cert on and reverses. All in all, it's continued fun on The Republican Professor podcast just in time for a somber Christian holiday weekend. I'm looking forward to Easter !

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the Constitutional crisis we face right now is coming out of the lower courts of the federal judiciary and it must be stopped. We have a federal Judge who ordered President Trump to call back an airplane that was flying vicious criminals back to El Salvador and we have every right to call these Judges out. When Judges act like politicians they must be criticized. This all ties back to Marbury vs Madison and it affects you. Chief Justice John Marshall's decision, which established the Supreme Court's power to strike down laws deemed unconstitutional, was a dangerous overreach not intended by the Founding Fathers. The Constitution does not explicitly grant the judiciary this authority, portraying judicial review as an implied power that Marshall seized to expand the Court's influence. This decision in this case laid the groundwork for the judicial tyranny which has since undermined the republic, allowing unelected judges to override the will of the people and the legislative branch. Also, for the apologists of the Iranian terror regime, a nuclear warhead on an intercontinental missile has the capacity to kill millions of Americans. To pretend otherwise is unconscionable and insane. Trump is 100% right, Iran must never get a nuclear weapon, period! The official position of MAGA: Iran will not get nukes. The President, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and National Security Advisor all said in the last 24-36 hours that by hook or by crook, Iran must not and will not get nuclear weapons. Then comes this bizarre claim - Israel's got nukes! Yes, but they've never dropped them on any of their enemies, never even waved them around as a threat because Israel's the core of the Holy Land.

"Undefined, unbounded, and immense power" - that's what anti-federalists warned we'd eventually get under the Necessary and Proper Clause. Today, it's easily one of the most twisted and abused parts of the Constitution. In this episode, learn about three key views of the clause: the modern view, which began with Alexander Hamilton and John Marshall; the strictly limited view from James Madison and Thomas Jefferson; and a middle ground from one of the clause's authors, Edmund Randolph. The post Necessary and Proper: The Big Lie That Unleashed Big Government first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

Plausibly Live! - The Official Podcast of The Dave Bowman Show
In this episode of Dave Does History on Bill Mick Live, we take a hard look at one of the most important Supreme Court cases in American history—Marbury v. Madison. You might remember our recent discussion about the Election of 1800 and John Adams' infamous “Midnight Judges.” Well, this is the moment when that political showdown reached its explosive conclusion, and the Supreme Court emerged with a new, game-changing power: judicial review.Chief Justice John Marshall didn't just decide whether William Marbury got his job—he redefined the power of the Supreme Court itself. With a legal sleight of hand, Marshall ruled that a part of the Judiciary Act of 1789 was unconstitutional, marking the first time the Court struck down a law passed by Congress. This decision set the precedent that allows the Supreme Court to determine what laws stand and what laws fall.Fast forward to today, and judicial review remains one of the most debated aspects of American government. From Dred Scott to Brown v. Board of Education, Roe v. Wade to Dobbs v. Jackson, the Supreme Court has used this power to reshape American society—for better or worse.So, who really runs the government? The people? Congress? The President? Or nine unelected judges? We'll break it all down and explore why Marbury v. Madison still matters right now. Tune in for history, controversy, and a few surprises along the way.
Almost everything in modern "constitutional law" is based on a myth that dates back to Chief Justice John Marshall and the 1803 case of Marbury v. Madison. According to the myth, Marshall not only CREATED the power of judicial review but also established judicial SUPREMACY - giving the courts ultimate authority over the other branches, the states, and even the people. In this episode, we smash that myth to pieces and reveal the true story behind Marbury. The post Marbury v. Madison Exposed: The Shocking Truth Behind Judicial Review first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.
This Day in Legal History: Marbury vs. Madison DecidedOn February 24, 1803, the U.S. Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice John Marshall, issued its landmark decision in Marbury v. Madison, establishing the principle of judicial review. The case arose when William Marbury, appointed as a justice of the peace by outgoing President John Adams, sued Secretary of State James Madison for failing to deliver his commission. The Court ruled that while Marbury had a right to his commission, the Judiciary Act of 1789, which granted the Supreme Court the power to issue writs of mandamus in such cases, was unconstitutional. By striking down this portion of the law, Marshall asserted that it was the judiciary's role to interpret the Constitution and invalidate any congressional acts that conflicted with it. This decision cemented the Supreme Court's authority as a coequal branch of government, ensuring that no law could override the Constitution. Though it limited the Court's immediate power by denying Marbury his commission, the ruling vastly expanded its long-term influence. Judicial review has since been used to strike down laws in areas ranging from civil rights to executive power. The case remains a cornerstone of American constitutional law, shaping the balance of power between the branches of government.A federal judge is set to hear the Associated Press's (AP) request to restore its journalists' access to the White House after President Trump's administration banned them for continuing to use the name "Gulf of Mexico" instead of "Gulf of America." The AP sued three senior Trump aides, arguing the ban violates the First Amendment by attempting to control the language journalists use in their reporting. The lawsuit seeks to reinstate AP's access to Air Force One and the White House press pool. White House officials dismissed the lawsuit as a publicity stunt, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defending the administration's position. Trump signed an executive order renaming the Gulf last month, but AP continued using the traditional name while noting the change. Several press freedom groups and the White House Correspondents' Association have condemned the ban. A hearing on the AP's motion for a temporary restraining order is scheduled for Monday in Washington federal court.US judge to hear AP challenge to Trump's ban over use of Gulf of Mexico name | ReutersThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has closed its investigation into Robinhood's cryptocurrency division without taking any action, the company announced Monday. Robinhood's stock rose 2.9% in premarket trading following the news. The investigation began in May 2024 when the SEC warned Robinhood that it could face charges for potential securities law violations related to its crypto operations. The decision comes shortly after the SEC dropped a separate lawsuit against Coinbase, another major crypto firm.US SEC closes investigation into Robinhood with no action | ReutersThe federal judiciary has advised judges and staff to ignore an email from the Trump administration requesting they report five accomplishments from the past week. The email, sent by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) as part of a broader government efficiency effort, was shared by Elon Musk on X before reaching federal employees. Judiciary officials said they would address the matter with OPM but urged recipients not to respond. Legal experts criticized the request as a possible violation of the separation of powers, arguing that the executive branch has no authority over the judiciary. Some judges and clerks in Washington, D.C., and Texas confirmed receiving the email. Constitutional scholars warned that such an inquiry, particularly when federal courts are handling cases involving Trump's policies, could be an inappropriate intrusion by the executive branch. The request is part of an initiative to reduce government spending, which has already led to significant federal job cuts.Judiciary Tells Judges, Staff to Ignore Email to Explain Work This is a public episode.

This Day in Legal History: United States v. Peters DecidedOn February 20, 1809, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its ruling in United States v. Peters, a case that reinforced the authority of federal courts over state legislatures. The dispute arose when the Pennsylvania legislature attempted to defy a federal court order regarding a financial judgment. Chief Justice John Marshall, writing for the Court, held that allowing states to override federal judicial decisions would threaten the constitutional structure and weaken the judiciary's role as an independent branch of government. The ruling reaffirmed the supremacy of federal law, a principle later cemented by cases like McCulloch v. Maryland and Cooper v. Aaron.The case stemmed from a long-running legal battle over a prize ship seized during the Revolutionary War. A Pennsylvania state court had refused to comply with a federal ruling ordering restitution to the ship's rightful owners. In his opinion, Marshall emphasized that state governments could not interfere with federal judicial authority, warning that such actions would lead to anarchy. Pennsylvania resisted the decision, but the ruling set a lasting precedent that federal courts have the final say on legal disputes involving national law.This decision played a crucial role in shaping American federalism by ensuring that states could not undermine federal judicial power. It reinforced the constitutional principle that the judiciary must remain independent to uphold the rule of law. In doing so, United States v. Peters helped establish the judiciary as a coequal branch of government, capable of enforcing its decisions even in the face of state opposition.President Donald Trump has announced plans to nominate several former advisers from his first term to key Justice Department positions. John Eisenberg has been tapped to lead the national security division, while Brett Shumate will head the civil division. Shumate, currently acting in that role, has been involved in defending the administration against lawsuits related to federal worker dismissals and agency restructuring. He previously worked at the law firm Jones Day and defended Trump's unsuccessful attempt to limit birthright citizenship. Eisenberg, who served as legal adviser to the National Security Council during Trump's first term, has held multiple senior roles in the Justice Department and clerked for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. Patrick Davis is set to lead the Office of Legislative Affairs, marking his third time in the department. All three appointments require Senate confirmation. The nominations follow Trump's directive to remove all U.S. attorneys appointed by former President Joe Biden, claiming the Justice Department had been politicized. This move underscores Trump's continued efforts to reshape the department with loyalists from his previous administration.Trump picks first-term loyalists for top Justice Department posts | ReutersMastercard's £200 million settlement of a long-running lawsuit over card fees is facing opposition, raising concerns about the future of UK class action funding. The lawsuit, originally valued at £10 billion, was brought on behalf of 44 million British consumers, meaning each claimant would receive only about £2.27 if all sought payment. The deal is being challenged by litigation funder Innsworth Capital, which stands to receive half the settlement, arguing that the terms are unfair given its £45 million investment in the case. The Competition Appeal Tribunal in London must now decide on the first contested settlement in the UK's emerging class action framework. The case comes amid growing uncertainty in the sector following a 2023 Supreme Court ruling that invalidated many litigation funding agreements. Further legal tests are expected, as the Court of Appeal is set to review funding arrangements for lawsuits against Apple and Sony later this year. Consumer advocate Walter Merricks, who led the case, and Mastercard defend the settlement, stating that economic assessments now value the claim at under £200 million due to prior legal setbacks. The tribunal's decision could significantly impact future litigation funding in the UK.Mastercard landmark deal challenged in test for UK class action funding | ReutersA U.S. judge is scrutinizing a Justice Department request to drop corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, raising concerns about political interference. The request, ordered by a Trump-appointed official, has led to multiple resignations within the Justice Department, with critics arguing it ties Adams' legal fate to his cooperation with Trump's immigration policies. Adams, facing reelection, has denied any wrongdoing, while some Democrats fear dismissing the case would make him indebted to the Trump administration. The Justice Department's request to drop the charges "without prejudice" leaves the possibility of future prosecution, a move former federal prosecutors warn could be used as leverage. The judge overseeing the case, Dale Ho, is a former civil rights attorney and Biden appointee whose nomination faced Republican opposition. Ho has a background in voting rights advocacy and previously challenged Trump administration policies before the Supreme Court. His handling of the Adams case will be the most high-profile decision of his judicial career. Legal experts note that while Ho cannot force prosecutors to continue the case, he can question their motives, particularly the timing of a potential re-filing after the New York mayoral election. This case underscores broader concerns about the Justice Department's independence under Trump, with critics accusing his administration of using federal prosecutions to reward allies and punish opponents. Adams has previously claimed, without evidence, that the charges were political retribution from the Biden administration. Meanwhile, New York's political establishment is divided, with some calling for Adams' resignation and others waiting to see how the case unfolds. Governor Kathy Hochul has reportedly met with political leaders to discuss Adams' future, further intensifying the controversy.US judge questions 'unusual' request to drop Eric Adams case | ReutersWho is Dale Ho, the judge deciding whether to drop Eric Adams' case? | Reuters This is a public episode.

The US Supreme Court is confronting the stark reality that, unlike the other two branches of government, the court has no real power to enforce its decisions. Should someone — whether government official or private citizen — refuse to comply, the justices have no army or constitutional spending power to use as a cudgel, Bloomberg Supreme Court reporter Greg Stohr writes in a new longform essay. That age-old quandary is becoming newly relevant as Donald Trump tries to bulldoze his way through longstanding legal constraints in the opening weeks of his second term as president. As lawsuits over birthright citizenship, spending cuts, and workforce purges make their way to the high court, the cases carry the potential for a genuine constitutional crisis. What happens, Chief Justice John Roberts must ask himself, if Trump loses and then defies the court? A lawsuit filed in 1801 when the Supreme Court was an untested institution posed a similar dilemma for Chief Justice John Marshall — and more recently, danger signs have been growing.

"I have no claim to anything here save through her". These are the reputed words of one of the most famous knights in English history, William Marshal, describing his wife Isabel, daughter of Aoife and Strongbow. In honour of St Valentine's Day Dr John Marshall (Lancaster University) gives us the full story of Isabel de Clare — a fascinating noblewoman, whose life, inheritance and influence crossed multiple (shifting) territorial boundaries. Dr Marshall offers complex and sometimes poignant insights, explaining to us how, being "born to an English father from the Welsh March and an Irish royal mother, Isabel's life crossed geographic and cultural divides, though neither of these were as rigid as we tend to think.” Suggested reading: You can find details on John's publications at: https://lancaster.academia.edu/JohnMarshall The history of William Marshal , eds A.

This Day in Legal History: Judiciary Act of 1801On February 13, 1801, the U.S. Congress passed the Judiciary Act of 1801, a controversial law that reshaped the federal court system. Enacted in the final days of John Adams' presidency, the Act reduced the number of Supreme Court justices from six to five and created sixteen new federal judgeships. It also eliminated the justices' duty to "ride circuit" by establishing separate circuit courts with their own judges. The law expanded federal jurisdiction, making it easier for creditors to bring cases in federal courts and granting them broader enforcement powers. Federalists, who controlled Congress at the time, saw this as a way to strengthen the judiciary before Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson took office.Adams quickly filled the newly created judgeships with Federalist allies, leading to accusations of court-packing and what became known as the "Midnight Judges" scandal. Jefferson and his party viewed the Act as an illegitimate attempt to entrench Federalist power in the judiciary. In 1802, the newly elected Republican-majority Congress repealed the Act, effectively undoing the judicial restructuring. This marked one of the first major political battles over the structure and independence of the federal courts. It also set the stage for future conflicts over judicial appointments and reforms.The Judiciary Act of 1801 played a key role in shaping the relationship between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. It demonstrated how shifts in political power could influence the courts and foreshadowed later debates over judicial authority. The controversy surrounding the Act also contributed to the landmark 1803 case Marbury v. Madison, in which Chief Justice John Marshall established the principle of judicial review. This episode remains a crucial moment in American legal history, illustrating the judiciary's evolving role in government.Cathy Harris, a Democratic appointee to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), has sued President Trump over her removal from office, arguing that the firing was unlawful. Trump also dismissed Ray Limon, the board's vice chair, and replaced Harris with Republican Henry Kerner as acting chair. The MSPB, an independent agency, hears appeals from federal workers who are fired or disciplined—a role that could become crucial as Trump pushes to shrink the federal workforce.Harris argues that her removal violates legal protections for independent agency officials, citing the Supreme Court's 1935 ruling in Humphrey's Executor v. United States, which limits a president's ability to fire certain officials without cause. Trump's decision to involve Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency in identifying federal job cuts adds urgency to the case. The lawsuit is part of a broader legal battle, as Gwynne Wilcox, another Democratic official fired from the National Labor Relations Board, has filed a similar claim.A hearing is set for Thursday before U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras, where Harris is seeking a temporary restraining order to regain her position. The White House defends Trump's authority to remove officials, setting up a potential Supreme Court fight over presidential power and the future of independent agencies.Member of US government employee appeals board sues over Trump firing | ReutersA federal court in Massachusetts has implemented new rules to curb "judge shopping" as lawsuits against President Trump's policies continue to mount. Chief U.S. District Judge F. Dennis Saylor issued an order requiring that cases seeking to block federal laws or policies be randomly assigned across the entire district, preventing litigants from filing in single-judge courthouses in Springfield and Worcester to secure favorable rulings.This move aligns with a 2024 U.S. Judicial Conference policy aimed at discouraging strategic case filings, a practice criticized when conservatives challenged Democratic policies in Texas courts with Republican-appointed judges. Massachusetts, a frequent battleground for legal challenges to Trump's agenda, has seen its judges temporarily block his administration's efforts on government employee buyouts, research funding cuts, and prison transfers for transgender individuals.With most of Massachusetts' federal judges appointed by Democratic presidents, the concern was that plaintiffs could manipulate the system by filing in small courthouses with sympathetic judges. While some federal districts have adopted similar rules, others, including in Texas, have resisted. The issue remains contentious, with Senate Republicans and some conservative judges opposing the policy as unnecessary judicial interference.Massachusetts federal court curbs 'judge shopping' as Trump lawsuits mount | ReutersThe explosive growth of Bitcoin has brought with it a significant environmental toll, with mining now consuming up to 2.6% of U.S. electricity and producing emissions comparable to entire nations. Bitcoin's proof-of-work (PoW) system relies on energy-intensive mining, straining electrical grids, driving up prices, and using vast amounts of water for cooling. Despite these concerns, states like Texas have embraced miners, offering low-cost energy and deregulated markets.The Trump administration's January 2025 executive order on digital assets calls for “responsible growth,” but it remains unclear whether sustainability will be a priority. The order could enable states to integrate eco-friendly policies, such as tax incentives for green mining or licensing tied to renewable energy use. Addressing crypto's environmental impact could also be framed as an issue of energy independence and national security, potentially making it more politically viable.A carbon tax on PoW mining could be one way to push the industry toward cleaner energy, though it would be a tough sell under a deregulatory GOP administration. However, some conservatives, including economist Art Laffer, have supported carbon taxation in the past. If Bitcoin miners want to avoid future crackdowns, they may need to adopt sustainability measures before stricter policies are imposed. Whether the executive order leads to real change remains uncertain, but the environmental costs of crypto mining are only growing.Bitcoin's Boom Comes With Corresponding Booming Environmental Costs This is a public episode.

This Day in Legal History: George Washington Unanimously ElectedOn February 4, 1789, George Washington was unanimously elected as the first President of the United States by the Electoral College, setting a precedent for democratic governance under the newly ratified Constitution. His election marked the formal beginning of the executive branch, shaping the legal and political framework of the young nation. On the same date in 1801, John Marshall was sworn in as Chief Justice of the United States. Marshall's tenure, spanning 34 years, would profoundly influence American law, particularly through landmark decisions like Marbury v. Madison, which established judicial review. His leadership solidified the Supreme Court as a coequal branch of government. Decades later, on February 4, 1945, the Yalta Conference began, with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin meeting to discuss Europe's post-World War II reorganization. The conference had lasting legal implications, shaping international law, the formation of the United Nations, and the division of Germany. More recently, on this day in 1997, a civil jury found O.J. Simpson liable for the wrongful deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, a stark contrast to his earlier criminal trial acquittal. This verdict highlighted the differing burdens of proof in civil versus criminal law. Each of these events reflects the evolving nature of law and governance, from the founding of the presidency to the expansion of judicial power and international legal agreements.President Donald Trump has announced plans to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 as part of his strategy to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. The law, originally passed during rising tensions with France, gives the president broad authority to detain, deport, or impose restrictions on foreign nationals deemed a threat during wartime. It can be activated when the U.S. is at war or facing an “invasion or predatory incursion” by a foreign government. Trump has directed his administration to assess whether drug cartels operating in the U.S. qualify as an invasion, which could serve as the legal basis for invoking the act.Historically, the Alien Enemies Act has been used in wartime, including during the War of 1812 and both World Wars. President Woodrow Wilson imposed restrictions on foreign nationals, and President Franklin Roosevelt used the law to justify the internment of Japanese, German, and Italian Americans during World War II. The Supreme Court has upheld the law's constitutionality, even allowing deportations after wartime, as seen in the 1948 case of a former Nazi, Kurt Ludecke. However, courts have been reluctant to define “invasion” broadly, previously ruling that large numbers of migrants crossing the border do not meet the founders' definition of an armed threat.Democratic lawmakers have recently pushed to repeal the act, citing its historical use in violating civil rights. If Trump proceeds with his plan, legal challenges will likely arise over whether cartel activity constitutes an invasion and whether the law can be used outside of traditional wartime contexts.What is the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 that Trump wants to use in deportations? | ReutersA Trump-appointed federal prosecutor, Edward Martin, has warned that anyone obstructing Elon Musk's government efficiency initiative could face criminal charges. In a letter posted on X, Martin assured Musk that his office would take legal action against anyone threatening or hindering the work of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk responded with a public thank-you.The warning follows reports that career government officials tried to block DOGE employees from accessing sensitive information. At the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), two top security officials were removed after preventing DOGE representatives from entering secure areas. Similarly, a Treasury Department official reportedly resisted efforts by DOGE to access financial systems.Martin revealed that his office had been working with DOGE but did not provide specifics. He also encouraged Musk to report any “questionable conduct” for potential legal action. The Trump administration has been expanding its control over the Justice Department, recently launching an investigation into a sheriff's office for releasing an undocumented immigrant in defiance of federal orders. Martin, who previously dropped all Jan. 6-related cases, has been outspoken in support of Trump, a departure from the typical neutrality of U.S. attorneys.US prosecutor warns of legal risk for anyone hindering Musk's efficiency effort | ReutersLawyers representing plaintiffs in a $2.8 billion antitrust settlement with Blue Cross Blue Shield have asked a federal judge in Alabama to approve over $754 million in legal fees and expenses. The legal team, led by Joe Whatley and Edith Kallas, is requesting $657.1 million in fees—equal to 23.47% of the settlement fund—along with at least $97 million in expenses. They argue this percentage is consistent with a similar $2.7 billion Blue Cross settlement in 2020, which awarded lawyers a comparable fee.The case, which has been in litigation for over a decade, accuses Blue Cross of dividing the country into exclusive territories to avoid competition, which allegedly drove up insurance costs and lowered reimbursements. Blue Cross has denied any wrongdoing. The lawyers claim they have worked 373,000 hours and spent $100 million on expert witnesses and other expenses.A previous $2.7 billion settlement involving Blue Cross, which addressed overcharging claims, was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court last year and resulted in $667 million in legal fees. The current settlement agreement permits lawyers to request up to 25% of the total fund for legal fees, leaving the judge to decide whether the request is reasonable.Lawyers seek $754 million in new Blue Cross antitrust settlement | ReutersA U.S. judge has extended a pause on the Trump administration's plan to freeze federal loans, grants, and financial aid after advocacy groups challenged the policy in court. Judge Loren AliKhan warned that cutting off funding would be "catastrophic" for organizations serving the public interest. The extension follows an earlier short-term pause, which was set to expire Monday.The funding freeze originated from a White House budget office memo directing agencies to halt funding in line with Trump's executive orders on immigration, climate change, and diversity. The memo was later withdrawn, but some grant recipients reported ongoing difficulties accessing funds.A Rhode Island judge issued a separate restraining order last week in response to a lawsuit from 22 Democratic attorneys general and Washington, D.C. Despite these rulings, a Trump administration lawyer argued that the president has the right to direct agencies under his executive authority. The legal battle over whether the funding freeze can move forward remains unresolved.US judge extends pause on Trump's plan to freeze federal grants, loans | Reuters This is a public episode.

Agriculture in Iowa is vital to feeding the world, but it poses challenges for water quality and flood management due to nutrient runoff and extreme weather. One innovative solution is the restoration of oxbow lakes—former river bends that have become disconnected from streams. These revitalized oxbows filter out nutrients like nitrates, provide habitat for endangered species such as the Topeka shiner, and offer flood storage to reduce downstream impacts.In this episode, Brandon Iddings of the Iowa Soybean Association explains the restoration process, which involves collaboration with landowners and partners like U.S. Fish and Wildlife. John Marshall, a farmer in Iowa, discusses the benefits of having oxbows restored on his land, from reducing nutrient runoff to creating wildlife habitats and improving flood resilience. With over 250 oxbows restored statewide and growing interest among farmers, these projects are delivering economic and environmental returns while showcasing the power of simple, nature-based solutions.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet.

The transformative discovery made in 1924 by John Marshall, Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India, revealed the existence of the Indus Valley Civilisation, pushing back the origins of Indian civilisation by millennia. Now, Devdutt Pattanaik's new book, Ahimsa: 100 Reflections on the Harappan Civilisation, offers a unique perspective on this ancient civilisation, exploring it through the lens of mythology rather than traditional history or archaeology, connecting the dots between the imagery depicted on the seals we are familiar with.Produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
