On this Tuesday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid lays into New York City leadership, especially Mayor Zohran Mamdani, for the mountains of snow and ice still impeding New Yorkers from a storm that occurred almost two weeks ago, in addition to the piles of stinky trash that the sanitation department has allowed to pile up on top of the snow, as the entire department is backlogged and understaffed in trying to clean up New York City and its streets. To boot, now 16 people have died as a result of the frigid temperatures in the Big Apple. In other news of the day, an Israeli is selected to an NBA All-Star team for the first time ever; celebrity activism hypocrisy is seemingly at an all-time high; Kristi Noem says ICE will be present at Sunday evening's Super Bowl; and A.G.

I've always believed that behind every meaningful brand is a deeply personal story, and my conversation with Marianna Sachse, founder of Jackalo, is a perfect example of that.  What stood out immediately was how her journey is rooted in gratitude, craft, and family—particularly the skills passed down from her mother and grandmother. That foundation shaped not only how Marianna sees clothing, but how she sees responsibility, longevity, and care across generations. As we talked, it became clear that Jackalo isn't just about kids' clothing—it's about rethinking the entire system. From durability and timeless design to circularity and ease for parents, Marianna has intentionally built a brand that removes compromise.  She shared how her background in nonprofit communications, combined with her experience as a mother and maker, pushed her to solve a problem she saw firsthand: kids' clothes that don't last, don't get handed down, and too often end up in landfills. In this episode, we discuss: * How learning to sew, mend, and value craft across generations became the foundation of Jackalo * Why kids' clothing is uniquely positioned for circular design and reuse * The trade-up model that allows parents to return outgrown clothes for store credit or recycling * How natural fibers, durability, and thoughtful design reduce waste and support kids' comfort * Why making the sustainable choice easy is essential for busy families Join me, Ramon Vela, in listening to the episode to hear how Marianna is building a product worth buying and a brand worth supporting—and how reimagining kids' clothing can make life easier for families while keeping clothes out of landfills.

Every year, 12 million tons of architectural glass from skyscrapers and office buildings ends up in landfills. Even though you diligently put your glass bottles in the recycling bin, only 30% of collected glass actually gets recycled back into glass.Sydney Mainster, VP of Sustainability at The Durst Organization, is on a mission to change that. After watching hundreds of tons of perfectly recyclable glass from a 40-story building go to waste, she pioneered a partnership to recycle skyscraper windows across New York City.In this episode, Sydney and David Entwistle (Director of Major Projects at Saint-Gobain Glass) reveal:- Why glass is the ONLY material recyclers lose money on- The hidden contamination problem that shuts down $40M furnaces- How "sneaky sustainability" is making glass recycling standard practice- Why interior office glass is the secret to scaling this solution- The roadblocks preventing this from going nationalSydney and David are completely reimagining how we handle one of our most valuable building materials.

Governor Josh Shapiro has officially launched his reelection campaign, telling supporters in Pittsburgh late last week that he will try to build on his earlier successes -- and defuse rampant partisanship. Democrats in Pennsylvania are hoping Governor Josh Shapiro’s bid for reelection this year will drive wins in other key races. Shapiro is embracing that call to arms. Pennsylvania officials say they are not in discussions to share private voter information with officials in Ohio. That's despite an announcement by Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose. The man who served as lead prosecutor in the Jerry Sandusky trial has died. The process of fracking a well brings up gas or oil from deep underground. But it also brings dirt and rocks that could be contaminated with radioactivity and other chemicals. In both Pennsylvania and Ohio, this waste is often sent to the same landfills as our household trash -- and a patchwork of state rules allows it to slip by regulators.

This Day in Maine for Friday, January 9th, 2025.

In this episode, we chat with Julia Dietmar, Co-Founder and CEO of OpenWardrobe, a platform helping people use what they already own and make smarter fashion choices. Julia shares how a messy closet sparked her sustainability journey, how OpenWardrobe helps digitize closets and plan outfits with AI, and why the most sustainable choice is wearing what you already have. We also explore her Style Blueprint approach and the real impact of fashion's overproduction and waste.In this episode, we talk to Julia K. Dietmar, Co-Founder & CEO of OpenWardrobe, a platform helping people use what they already own, plan outfits with AI, and plug into circular options like repairs, alterations, and resale.During this episode we look at how a messy closet sparked Julia's sustainability journey and unpacks what OpenWardrobe actually does—digitize your closet, help you plan outfits, spark AI styling ideas, and plug you into repairs, alterations, and resale, while making the case that the “most sustainable” choice is usually wearing what you already own (cost-per-wear). We share practical ways to buy less and love your wardrobe more, walk through Style Blueprint 101 (your colors, body shape/silhouettes, and style personality), and get real about fashion's overproduction problem—from “52 seasons” to landfill stats and water impacts.Timestamps to relevant points within the episode, use this format:[00:00]-Intro[02:20] – Welcome to Mama Earth Talk + episode setup[03:17] – Guest intro: Julia K.

The Coffin Butte Landfill, located about 10 miles north of Corvallis, takes in trash from around two dozen Oregon counties and accepts more than a million tons of waste every year. But its shelf life is expiring, and Republic Services, the company that owns and operates the landfill, is trying to expand it.   Now, it’s one step closer. Last month, Republic won Benton County’s approval for a permit that greenlights the expansion, so long as Republic complies with certain criteria to mitigate the dump’s environmental impact.   Opponents are trying to stall the expansion at the Land Use Board of Appeals before any shovels hit the ground, but it’s unclear whether the expansion will happen safely, or at all. Mason Leavitt is a geographic information systems analyst and programs manager at Beyond Toxics. He joins us to revisit the expansion’s continuing saga, what we know about the site’s environmental impact and what alternatives there might be.  

It started with one sewing machine, a pile of flat inner tubes — and a big idea about American manufacturing. Lanette Fidrych shares how Cycle Dog grew from sewing dog leashes out of discarded bike tubes to becoming a nationally distributed, U.S.-made pet product manufacturer. She discusses scaling production from her home to a full factory and retail/tavern space, the brand's commitment to sustainability, and the importance of creating meaningful manufacturing jobs. Lanette also explains how in-house production accelerates innovation and enables the company to repurpose waste into new products.

An investigation into how contamination from shale drilling waste can move from landfills into waterways without much oversight. Treating drinking water to prevent lead contamination might have the unintended consequence of higher phosphorus levels in urban waterways. Researchers are working to figure out the balance between how much carbon forests emit and how much they absorb. The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has reached a $3.3 million agreement over decades-old contamination at a petroleum storage facility in Pittsburgh. U.S. Steel has agreed to pay a fine in a settlement with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for pollution in the Monongahela River. The Trump administration has reversed course again on a new air pollution rule for coke oven plants. Older adults who live in southcentral Pennsylvania have higher rates of melanoma skin cancer, according to a study by Penn State researchers.   Sign up for our newsletter! Get our newsletter every Tuesday morning so you'll never miss an environmental story. 

Cities worldwide are drowning in trash. Landfills are full, oceans are clogged with plastic. Many are trying to change, but one effort stands apart in its sheer scale and ambition: China's nationwide push to build“zero-waste cities.”The goal is a system where everything is reused, repurposed, or recovered.

In this week's episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra welcomes Dr Courtney Maxey-Jones, Director of the Coronary Care Unit at Upstate University Hospital and a cardiac anesthesiologist intensivist by training. Dr Maxey-Jones co-founded and serves as Chief Operations Officer of GOMED, a not-for-profit organization transforming how we think about medical device waste and global healthcare equity. Dr Maxey-Jones shares the origin story of GOMED - born from witnessing the staggering waste generated in cardiac operating rooms, where expensive single-use devices are discarded due to expiration dates or changing surgeon preferences. Together with her partners, cardiac surgeon Dr Farhan Nadeem and physician assistant Connor Wasilnak, they recognized an extraordinary opportunity to make use of these waste items. Dr Kalra and Dr Maxey-Jones examine the ethical complexities of equipment reuse, the critical unmet needs for EP devices and cath lab equipment internationally, and GOMED's innovative partnership with Syracuse University biomedical engineering students to develop low-resource autoclaves. This episode reveals how observation of systemic waste evolved into a sustainable model for global cardiovascular care equity. Questions and comments can be sent to "podcast@radcliffe-group.com" and may be answered by Ankur in the next episode.

Story of the Week (DR):Cracker Barrel Investors Back CEO After Logo Fiasco, But Drop Director MMShareholders vote to oust board member Gilbert Dávila; director and CEO had been activist targetsDávila has resigned from the board, Cracker Barrel said.US regulator will permit companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxiesSecurities and Exchange Commission could reshape corporate governance by making it harder for investors to seek changesThe US Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday said it would allow companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxy materials, as Wall Street's top regulator increasingly moves to limit investor activism.Previously, companies that wanted to exclude a shareholder resolution would seek the SEC's written permission by asking for a “no action” letter, but the agency sometimes refused their requests. Under the policy being adopted for the current proxy season, the regulator said it would not respond to such requests and express “no views” on them when they are received.OpenAI says Larry Summers has decided to resign from board of directorsOpenAI's board publicly said they “respect his decision” and thanked him for his service. The resignation comes after the release of emails between Summers and Jeffrey Epstein by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. Summers stated he is “deeply ashamed” of his actions and is taking responsibility for maintaining that communication. Summers said he is stepping back from all his public commitments to “rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me.” He's also going on leave from Harvard, where he had been teaching. Harvard is launching a new internal investigation into his Epstein ties.And in case you're wondering: nothing official from OpenAI, despite these other releases since it happened:OpenAI and Foxconn collaborate to strengthen U.S. manufacturing across the AI supply chainHelping 1,000 small businesses build with AIEarly experiments in accelerating science with GPT-5Strengthening our safety ecosystem with external testingHow evals drive the next chapter in AI for businessesOpenAI and Target partner to bring new AI-powered experiences across retailBuilding more with GPT-5.1-Codex-MaxGPT-5.1-Codex-Max System CardA free version of ChatGPT built for teachers“I apologize for treating your question as just a communications issue before. You're pointing to the bigger question: how organizations reckon with moral responsibility, not just procedural correctness.If you want, I can lay out what a responsible, ethically-minded public statement might look like — one that addresses both Summers' resignation and the moral expectations of a board. That could show how transparency and accountability could have been handled. Do you want me to do that?”Jeff Bezos Creates A.I.

Hour 2 of BMitch & Finlay features an interview with Neil Greenberg and Landfill's 44 problems with the Commanders.

Landfill gives out his 44 problems with the Washington Commanders.

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.)Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?
