Rescue operations are continuing in the Guinean capital, Conakry, where 30 people are known to have died following the collapse of a mountain of waste. Witnesses say the landfill has buried an apartment building along with informal dwellings. Also: Ukraine's sacked defence minister, Mikhailo Fedorov, has told the BBC he stands by his call for nationwide elections, even though the country is at war. More than 90,000 people have now been told to evacuate their homes in the US state of Nevada due to a fast-moving wildfire. Iran's currency, the Rial, has hit a record low. Washington DC has hosted an IndyCar race, in the final event celebrating 250 years of American independence.

What will Denver do when it runs out of space for trash? Madison, WI, has a plan, and it's one that other cities could follow. What could've just been another county landfill, slated to open in 2027, will instead be a “sustainability campus”, where local businesses will unite to more intentionally sort incoming waste, increase recycling intake, and generally aim to slow the flow of trash. And Dane County has historically handled waste disposal in a savvy way, making big bucks off of trash collection that they then use to fund future projects like this forthcoming campus. City Cast Madison host Bianca Martin breaks this all down for David, and together they uncover the quirks — and opportunities — that come with talking trash.

It's primary election day in Vermont, troubles in Killington's local government are derailing a major infrastructure project and changes are coming to Green Mountain Transit bus schedules. Plus, a waste management company is testing a system that can remove toxic chemicals known as PFAS from landfill runoff, but there's concerns about how it might affect air quality.
If you oscillate between pushing yourself and your community to do more to reduce your plastic consumption while also being frustrated that governments aren't doing more to regulate plastic production and make more plastics recyclable on a big scale, today is the show for you. Meet our guest, Lottie Dalziel.Lottie Dalziel started Banish in 2018 with a simple idea: give people a place to bring the things their kerbside bin couldn't take - hard-to-recycle items like old pens, bottle caps, soft plastics and coffee pods that would otherwise end up in landfill. In 2023, Banish opened its sustainability hub in Sydney's Haymarket.That idea grew into one of Australia's most recognised sustainability stores and the home of BRAD, the Banish Recycling and Diversion Program. In 2024 alone, BRAD diverted over one million pieces of plastic waste from landfill.Lottie is on a mission: No time for doom and guilt. Just practical information and specific things people can actually do.She has been recognised as NSW Young Australian of the Year, named in Forbes' 30 Under 30, and has spoken at TEDx, corporates, schools and community events across Australia. Her book, 365 Ways to Save The Planet & Your Money At The Same Time, continues that same approach.I hope you enjoy the show.

Table to Farm Compost is a Durango based climate activist business that has been turning food scraps into compost since 2016. Co-owner Monique DiGiorgio was recently named the 2025 Entrepreneur of the Year by Southwest Colorado Rocks for her leadership in growing the company to more than 800 subscribers and achieving the highest level of compost certification in Colorado. The company offers curbside pickup of food scraps and transforms them into high quality compost used by local gardeners and agricultural producers across La Plata County. With Durango's Bonded Landfill at 70% capacity and Durango City Council set to decide on composting requirements this fall, Table to Farm is at the center of an important conversation about how Durango handles its organic waste.By Sadie SmithWatch this story at LNN.newsThis story is sponsored by FASTSIGNS Durango, Legacy Financial Advisors and RMW/Tafoya Barrett & Associates.

An idea that sprang from the tulip fields of the Netherlands is about to expand nationwide here in New Zealand. It's being led by 24 year old Yasmin Wessels. In the last three years she has saved a million plastic flower sleeves from landfill. Her initiative is called The Flower Loop - they collect plastic sleeves from florists that would otherwise be destined for the bin and transform them back into new ones. Yasmin Wessels spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.
Nothing makes me happier than a conversation that goes deep unexpectedly... and Cameron Ungar delivered! Trash and Stash is a cleanout and downsizing service based in North Carolina. They are the first B-Corp Certified Junk Removal business in the US, and Cameron takes that certification very seriously. He talks about being thrifty - not like cheap, but about putting value on the effort made. He talks about simplifying our lives and homes being an act of rebellion (love that word!), and says that small, consistent actions have big results.Cameron offers an efficiency bonus for his employees, because just filling a dumpster is not preferred; he prefers repurposing or reusing, to keep things in circulation. In fact, his whole office is thrifted - he said he spent maybe $1000 for everything in the office. He also trains his employees in patience and encourages them to listen to their clients, knowing that some people will struggle with letting go of things.And his company gives back. Started during Covid, this still young company is giving a percentage of all profits to the International Cancer Foundation. They also have a space where they store some of the stuff they've taken from homes/offices to resale or donate to people who need it.A phrase Cameron said has stuck with me is " Junk is a verb, not a noun." Just think on that for a moment. I love the heart behind Trash and Stash so much - a desperately needed service, and offered with a kindness that is often lacking in that field.Find Trash and Stash here: https://www.trashandstash.com/They're on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/trashandstash And Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/yourlocaltrashandstash/Send me a message!Support the showLike this episode?

Landfills across African cities are catching fire and releasing methane, an invisible greenhouse gas with more short-term warming potential than CO2. Sustainable strategist Mohamed A. Sultan reveals how local communities are turning this crisis into opportunity, diverting hundreds of tons of waste from landfills and helping thousands of farmers adopt more sustainable techniques. Learn why cutting methane emissions is a win-win opportunity to drive down global temperatures while also creating more livable cities. (This ambitious idea is part of The Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Member of the Virginia General Assembly, Glen Sturtevant, has been working to get the Chesterfield landfill cleaned up but he says there is still a lot of work to do.
Is plastic really the environmental villain it's often portrayed to be, or have politics and misinformation overtaken the science? Dr. Chris DeArmitt, founder of the Plastics Research Council, spent thousands of unpaid hours reviewing more than 5,000 peer-reviewed studies to find out. Host Gregg sits down with Dr. DeArmitt to unpack why plastic makes up just half of one percent of the materials we use, why the "floating island" of ocean plastic doesn't exist, what's actually driving anti-plastic campaigns, and why microplastics may not be the health threat headlines suggest. It's a candid, evidence-first conversation that challenges nearly everything the public has been told about plastic. Join Gregg and Dr. Chris DeArmitt on Cut to the Chase as they explore: What You'll Learn Why plastic is only half of 1% of the material we use, and why that matters The truth behind the "floating island of plastic the size of Texas" What's really in ocean gyres, and why 85% of it is fishing gear, not consumer litter Why life cycle analysis shows plastic is the lowest-impact material in 9 out of 10 cases What microplastics research actually says, and why Dr. DeArmitt calls 80% of the studies flawed Why recycling isn't the environmental fix people think it is, and what actually helps Key Moments Introduction: Framing the plastics debate and Dr. DeArmitt's background Why he spent 5,000+ unpaid hours reviewing studies, sparked by his daughters' school lessons The half of 1% myth: plastic vs. total material use The straw and single-use cup debate Reusing plastic bottles, and the SODIS water sterilization method The INC-4 plastics treaty meeting in Ottawa and what he saw there The "floating island the size of Texas" myth What's actually in ocean gyres (85% fishing gear) The environmental cost of NGO flights to plastics conferences Recycling: why it's overhyped and how life cycle analysis changes the picture The gold vs. plastic cost/impact comparison Landfill space and the three things that actually help the environment Microplastics: what the science says vs. the headlines Ocean plastic volume in context (the football stadium comparison) Litter as the real problem, and what actually stops it His books, peer review process, and who's changed their mind based on the data What he's working on next Closing: podcasts spreading misinformation, and his ask to hosts like Joe Rogan and Jordan Harbinger Dr. Chris DeArmitt is the founder of the Plastics Research Council and Phantom Plastics, and a materials scientist recognized as one of the world's leading independent authorities on plastics, microplastics, and the environment. He is the author of The Plastics Paradox and Shattering the Plastics Illusion, both based on his review of thousands of peer-reviewed studies, and both available as free downloads in multiple languages. His research is unfunded by industry, and his conclusions have been reviewed and endorsed by scientists and toxicologists internationally. The resources mentioned in this episode are: Book: The Plastics Paradox by Dr. Chris DeArmitt Book: Shattering the Plastics Illusion by Dr. Chris DeArmitt SODIS (Solar Water Disinfection) method, referenced for reused PET bottles INC-4 plastics treaty meeting, Ottawa Papermetaller / Eco Loop plastic bag recycling process, Germany Prior appearances: 60 Minutes with Scott Pelley, The Jordan Harbinger Show Contact / Follow Dr. Chris DeArmitt: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisdearmitt/ Dr. DeArmitt's books are available for free download in multiple languages.

In Episode 37, DDSWTNP kick off the Summer of Underworld with an overview that, like Episode 20: Discovering White Noise, offers newcomers to the novel a set of things to look out for as well as readings bound to appeal to those already familiar with DeLillo's big book and headed back to it. How is this mega-novel structured in its six main Parts bookended by Prologue and Epilogue? How and why does it portray time's variability and crisscross four decades of history? What to make of all the depictions of art and artists, from Klara Sax to Moonman 157, that populate these pages? What does a reader have to look forward to when they make it to the remarkable Lenny Bruce stand-up DeLillo creates? How do we keep track of all the meanings of waste and “under” in this book, and how does the quest for a single baseball help move the reader along? How to describe all the uncanny connections between paired characters and images, and is an aesthetic of filmic montage the way to understand Underworld's method? Has DeLillo somehow made this giant book into both a vast, scattered history of the Cold War and a page-turning, character-driven account of personal transgression, confession, and regret? With these and other questions DDSWTNP begin a series of episodes, featuring many a guest appearance and working through the sections of Underworld one by one. Enjoy the new variations in intro and outro music, and stay tuned for more episodes in the Summer of Underworld. Coming up next, an episode devoted to the Prologue and “Pafko at the Wall” with DeLillo scholar John Duvall.

October 1975, the partial remains of a 73-year-old Tucson man named William Reginald Sipfle were found in a landfill near Ryan Airfield, with no identification, no missing person report, and no answers for the family he left behind. Fifty-one years later, forensic genealogy and DNA technology cracked open the cold case and pointed investigators directly at Sipfle's own stepdaughter, Carol Ann Beall, now 79, who prosecutors allege killed him and collected up to six hundred thousand dollars from his pension in the decades that followed. This episode breaks down how the case went cold, how modern forensic science brought it back, and what this arrest reveals about the long reach of justice and the extraordinary tools now available to investigators working crimes the system once had no way to solve.
n October 1975, the unidentified remains of a Tucson man were found near Ryan Airfield with no missing person report, no leads, and no justice for a family left without answers. Fifty-one years later, investigators armed with forensic genealogy technology traced the victim to 73-year-old William Reginald Sipfle and identified his stepdaughter Carol Ann Beall, now 79, as the prime suspect, allegedly collecting up to six hundred thousand dollars from his pension the entire time. This episode breaks down how the cold case was reopened, how DNA changed everything, and what this arrest means for the growing number of decades-old crimes now being solved through modern forensic science. IAB Tags: Crime/True Crime, Law/Government/Legal, Science, News/Current Events, Society True Detective Podcast Title: 51 Years in the Dark: How DNA Pulled a Killer Out of a Cold Case and Into a Courtroom A body dumped in a landfill in 1975, a victim who had no name for decades, and a suspect who allegedly spent over half a century collecting a dead man's pension, this is one of the most chilling cold case resolutions in recent memory. Investigators used forensic genealogy to identify the victim as William Reginald Sipfle and zeroed in on his stepdaughter Carol Ann Beall, now 79, as the woman prosecutors believe killed him and buried both the body and the truth for 51 years. This episode goes deep into the investigative trail, the forensic tools that made the breakthrough possible, and the haunting question of how someone lives an ordinary life while carrying a secret that dark for that long.Sonnet 4.6

The night before Jesse Vang called 911 to report three-year-old Elijah Vue missing, surveillance cameras in Two Rivers, Wisconsin captured him driving a borrowed Nissan Altima through town. His phone was sitting at his apartment, playing a Netflix movie — building what prosecutors allege was a false alibi. On camera, Vang pulled up to the donation door at a St. Vincent de Paul store and dropped off a dark-colored suitcase. When investigators recovered that suitcase weeks later, the Wisconsin State Crime Lab found a single DNA profile inside. It belonged to Elijah Vue.That suitcase is one piece of a case built on evidence Vang and Katrina Baur — Elijah's mother — allegedly tried to destroy. Deleted photographs. Erased Facebook messages. A story about a sleeping toddler who wandered away that collapsed the moment investigators pulled the surveillance footage. Baur had sent her three-year-old to stay with Vang, her boyfriend, for what she described as “disciplinary reasons.” She wanted him to teach Elijah “how to be a man.” Vang called it “boot camp.” What the criminal complaint describes is a week of forced standing, cold water, isolation, and escalating cruelty — documented in their own texts and photographs. Baur's phone held a deleted image of Elijah blindfolded with bruising on his face, taken at 3:13 in the morning. She erased it an hour after she took it.For seven months after Elijah was reported missing, the Two Rivers community searched. Landfills, rivers, forests, private property. A hunter found skeletal remains in a wooded area three miles from Vang's apartment. DNA confirmed they were Elijah's. Doctors found healed fractures on his skull and face and concluded he had suffered prolonged harm. His manner of death: homicide by unspecified means. Vang faces a life sentence on the lead charge. Baur faces up to sixty years. Both have pleaded not guilty — and both are heading toward trial in Manitowoc County, where a judge has denied every defense motion to move the case or sequester the jury.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did you know that most items labelled "recyclable" actually end up in landfill anyway? What if the secret to guilt-free decluttering lies in understanding the hidden truth about waste and recycling? How can you make more sustainable choices when decluttering your home without getting overwhelmed by environmental guilt?
In our consumer culture, it's easy to buy low-cost goods that will ultimately end up in a landfill. The true cost of living that way is one we'll all end up paying. On this encore edition of Talk of Iowa, different ways to reduce, reuse, repair, recycle and compost. Host Charity Nebbe spoke with Jane Wilch, the recycling coordinator for the City of Iowa City; Joe Bolick, the director of the Iowa Waste Reduction Center; Laura Crosett, communications lead for the Iowa City Repair Cafe, and Jamie Nicolino, owner of The Collective, a sustainable 'general store' in Des Moines.
