Justin Nobel writes on science and environment for investigative sites, literary journals and magazines like...

On this week's program, your host, Justin Mog, welcomes to the airwaves Justin Nobel, author of the new book Petroleum-238: Big Oil's Dangerous Secret and the Grassroots Fight to Stop It (published April 24, 2024). The book began as a piece of investigative journalism published in Rolling Stone as ""America's Radioactive Secret"" on January 21, 2020 (https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/oil-gas-fracking-radioactive-investigation-937389/) That investigation examined the radioactivity brought to the surface in oil and gas production and the various pathways of contamination posed to the industry's workers, the public and communities, and the environment. The magazine story won an award for longform writing with the National Association of Science Writers. Learn more about the book at https://bookshop.org/p/books/petroleum-238-big-oil-s-dangerous-secret-and-the-grassroots-fight-to-stop-it-justin-nobel/20873986?ean=9798989546237 Petroleum-238 is the product of an acclaimed science journalist's extraordinary seven-year investigation into how the U.S. oil and gas industry has avoided environmental regulations and created a dangerous and radioactive public health crisis. As Justin Nobel traveled the United States reporting on the oil and gas industry he learned a disturbing and little-considered fact: a lot more comes to the surface at a well than just the oil and gas. Each year the industry produces billions of tons of waste, much of it toxic and radioactive. The fracking boom has only worsened the problem. So where does it all go? Petroleum-238 provides the shocking answer. Shielded by a system of lax regulations and legal loopholes, this waste has been spilled, spread, injected, dumped, and freely emitted across America. Nobel relies on oilfield workers, community activists, a century of academic research, and a trove of never-before released industry and government documents to lay out a series of game-changing reveals into the world's most powerful industry. None have been more deceived than the industry's own workers, who are suffering mysterious health maladies and dying from unexplainable cancers. This book is an impressive work of investigative science journalism with surprising moments of literary beauty, and a welcome breakdown of the false wall corporations and politicians often set between industry workers and environmentalists. In the tradition of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Petroleum-238 is both a landmark work of environmental writing and an urgent call to action. Justin Nobel writes on science and environment for US magazines, investigative sites, and literary journals. His work has been published in Best American Science and Nature Writing and Best American Travel Writing. A book he co-wrote with a death row exonoree, The Story of Dan Bright, was published in 2016 by University of New Orleans Press. His 2020 Rolling Stone magazine story, “America's Radioactive Secret,” won an award for longform writing with the National Association of Science Writers and inspired this book. Justin's writing has helped lead to lawsuits, academic research, public dialogue and been taught at Harvard's School of Public Health.

Each year, the gas and oil industry produces billions of tons of waste — much of it toxic and radioactive. The fracking boom has only worsened the problem. Where does this waste go?

On this week's Project Censored: Eleanor Goldfield hosts. In the first segment, we learn about the activities of the Jewish National Fund, a self-proclaimed “environmental organization” that, according to our guest, “has really existed to displace Palestinians and acquire Palestinian land through any means necessary.” Then in the second half of the program, we learn that wastewater from fracking, besides containing chemical toxins, is apt to also have high concentrations of radioactive elements. Guests: Abdullah Elagha works with the Colorado Palestine Coalition. He took part in organizing actions against a pro-Israel conference that took place in Denver in early December. Justin Nobel is an investigative journalist who studies the environmental, labor, and community impacts of fossil-fuel production. He's been published in several national magazines and websites, and has a book, “Petroleum 238,” coming out in April 2024.   The post Is This Environmental Group Merely a Front for Taking Over Palestinian Land? / Fracking and Radioactivity appeared first on KPFA.

Many oil and gas workers come into contact with a fracking byproduct called brine. The gas industry says it’s safe. But is it really? This week on Inside Appalachia, we’ll talk with reporter Justin Nobel, who says some workers are being exposed to dangerous levels of radioactivity, which could be making them, and their families, sick. And, as we head into garden season, we’ll check in with an update on a mystery about mortgage-lifter tomatoes.

Big show this week! First, Felix Salmon (chief financial correspondent for Axios, Slate's Money podcast, Axios Edge Newsletter) joins the show to discuss why all that talk at the World Economic Forum in Davos may be cheap, why Greta wasn't speaking in a bigger room, where he sees some of the biggest needs for economic policy to address climate change, and how attitudes are changing on the financial prospects of fossil fuel companies. We ask Felix: Is Jim Cramer the Greta Thunberg of financial cable television? (Spoiler alert: he's not). Then, we talk to Justin Nobel, who's remarkable investigation for the Economic Hardship Reporting Project and Rolling Stone reveals a shocking truth around the dangers we face with toxic waste coming from oil-and-gas wells. The threat is deadly and most of us are simply unaware it exists.  As always, follow us @climatepod on Twitter and email us at theclimatepod@gmail.com.

A man going off on a solo expedition into the wilderness when he's having a dilemma or a tough time or when he needs to make a difficult decision is a staple of so much literature, and especially of fiction aimed at boys. It also seems to be a thing in reality too.Is this simply a form of romantic escapism or can it help men to solve their problems and to deal with difficult times? And do men actually need to spend time in nature to become better men? An outdoors-y Californian man helps us untangle this, with the help of some great essays too.Note: We are on hiatus until June, when we'll be returning with Season 3. There will be another bonus episode of The Gender Knot again before then.**Guest:** Seth Miller, founder of [Justice TVA](http://www.justicetva.com/)**Related links:**Farther Away: “Robinson Crusoe”, David Foster Wallace and the island of solitude - by Jonathan Franzen, New Yorker April 2011 https://bit.ly/2Hjqie7 Pond Scum: Henry David Thoreau's moral myopia – by Kathryn Schulz, New Yorker October 2015 https://bit.ly/2vkJpgQThe Miseducation of John Muir: A close examination of the wilderness icon's early travels reveals a deep love for trees, and some ugly feelings about people – by Justin Nobel, Atlas Obscura July 2016 https://bit.ly/2XwG0YOThe Gender Knot podcast https://www.thegenderknot.com/ and Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/182851532302085/?ref=br_rsHost and producer: Nas aka Nastaran Tavakoli-FarCo-host: Jonathan FreemanCo-producers: Sam Baker and Jonathan BlackwellMusic: Government Funded Weed by Black Ant (used under Creative Commons)
