A Futuristic Litter Box, & Is My Line Size Too Small, Or Do I Have Too Much Load ?? Episode 534KE2 Chaos, Glycol Lockouts, and Coolselector Pipe Sizing (Plus the Fancy Litter Box Debate)Brett Wetzel and Kevin Compass open the Advanced Refrigeration Podcast joking about an “automatic litter box” before jumping into a hectic week of glycol case startups and ongoing frustration with KE2 controllers reverting settings, freezing in defrost, and causing temperature control issues even after firmware updates that wipe settings. They discuss glycol skids hard-locking out from small pressure losses and the need to overcharge to prevent random shutdowns, then shift into a practical walkthrough of Danfoss Coolselector for transcritical CO2 piping and electronic expansion valve sizing. Using examples, they show how capacity, line length, pressure drop, and velocity change with pipe size, why winter load matters for oil return, and how oversized or over-open valves can drive excessive mass flow and pressure drop; they also cover limiting max valve opening percentage and briefly reference AKV pulse valve duty cycle behavior.

“What's Buggin' You” segment for Thursday 7-30-26

We've all seen it. Just a few pieces of litter can instantly change a visitor's perception of your park. And then that initial litter inevitably leads to more litter.  Litter is a big problem, and it isn't just a tarnish on your park assets. It is dangerous to the community and environment. It can also keep people away from your parks. While you may not be able to completely control litter in your parks, there are some strategies you can employ to reduce it or address it quickly. In this Episode of the Productive Parks 5-Minute Podcast, learn the effects of litter in parks, the dangers of it, and what your agency can do to protect its properties.  __________________________________________________________________________ The Productive Parks 5-Minute Podcast is for busy professionals working to change the game in Parks and Recreation.

For dairy farms located near poultry farms, poultry litter can be a valuable and cost-effective source of fertiliser. With ongoing volatility in fertiliser prices and availability, many farmers are taking a closer look at both the rates they apply and the alternative nutrient sources available to them.In this episode, I'm joined by agronomist Peter Beale to discuss all things poultry litter — including how to value it, when it makes sense to use it, and some of the practical limitations dairy farmers need to consider. Peter has worked extensively with dairy farmers and is also a previous guest of the podcast.Resources: Factsheet - Best practice guidelines for using poultry litter on pasturesThis podcast is an initiative of the NSW DPI Dairy Business Advisory Unit – further information and resources are available here - Dairy | Department of Primary IndustriesIt is brought to you in partnership with the Hunter Local Land ServicesPlease share this podcast with your fellow farmers and colleagues and feel free to contact us with suggestions or comments via this email address thebusinessofdairy@gmail.comFurther NSW DPI Dairy channels to follow and subscribe to include;NSW DPI Dairy Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/NSWDairyNSW DPI Dairy Newsletter - Connect with us | Department of Primary Industries Transcript - Produced by “Pacific Studio” www.pacific.studio The information discussed in this podcast are for informative and educational purposes only and do not constitute advice.

About the Guest Dr. Chris DeArmitt FIMMM FRSC CChem is an independent polymer scientist, author, and founder of the Plastics Research Council — a nonprofit where he and professors from around the world work entirely unpaid to review and share peer-reviewed science on plastics. A specialist in polymer additives and fillers whose clients have included Apple and companies across multiple continents, Chris has spent over seven years and roughly a thousand hours annually reading thousands of studies on plastics, the environment, and human health. His findings are published in two freely available books and endorsed by toxicologists, medical doctors, and professors who have checked the science and found no errors. Episode Summary What do you actually know about plastics — and where did that knowledge come from? That's the question Dr. Chris DeArmitt puts to every audience he speaks to, and the answer is almost always the same: the media. In this episode of Shape the System, host Vincent Turner sits down with Chris for a wide-ranging, evidence-first conversation about one of the most misunderstood materials on the planet. The result is an episode that will challenge most of what you think you know — not through opinion, but through peer-reviewed science. Chris opens by reframing the scale of the problem. Plastics represent just half a percent of all materials and waste we produce. Replacing them with paper, metal, or glass would require roughly double the fossil fuel — not less — because those alternatives demand far more energy to manufacture. And despite the ubiquitous image of a turtle tangled in a plastic bag, Chris recounts successfully pushing the BBC to retract a photoshopped image of exactly that scenario, which he argues has never occurred in nature. The famous "floating island of plastic the size of Texas"? Undetectable by satellite, and contradicted by decades of ocean monitoring data showing a vessel must sail 100,000 miles — four times around the planet — to find a single piece of plastic bag. On microplastics, Chris is equally direct. Our lifetime ingestion of plastic particles amounts to roughly 0.015 grams over 70 years — a hundred million times below the no-observable-adverse-effect level established in over 2,000 studies spanning 60 years. The WWF's claim that we eat a credit card's worth of plastic each week, he notes, has been refuted by multiple independent studies — and remains on their website regardless. Meanwhile, the most common end-of-life options for plastic — landfill, incineration for energy recovery, or mechanical recycling — are all scientifically defensible, with recycling reducing environmental impact by a further 70% on top of plastic's already lowest-in-class baseline across 93% of applications studied. Looking forward, Chris draws a clear line between innovations with evidence and those without. Plant-based versions of existing polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene — chemically identical to their fossil fuel counterparts, recyclable in the same streams, with decades of safety data — represent a credible path. Novel biopolymers like PLA, PHA, and seaweed-derived plastics, by contrast, lack life cycle evidence that they reduce environmental impact, regardless of how appealing they sound. The most unsexy innovation he highlights may also be the most significant: down-gauging, the continuous industry-wide effort to use less material to do the same job. A PET bottle that weighed 25 grams a generation ago now weighs around 8 grams — a 60% reduction in material, achieved quietly, without a press release. Key Takeaways Plastics account for just 0.5% of materials and waste, and replacing them with paper, metal, or glass would roughly double fossil fuel usage — making plastic bans scientifically counterproductive by every life cycle study ever conducted. Our lifetime ingestion of microplastic particles is approximately 0.015 grams — a hundred million times below the established safe threshold — and no study in 60 years of research has documented a health effect from plastic particles at real-world doses. Plastic has the lowest environmental impact in 93% of applications studied, even without recycling; adding recycling reduces that impact by a further 70%, but the material is already net-positive before any recycling takes place. Litter is caused by litterers, not manufacturers — scientific studies comparing tourist beaches to remote beaches confirm litter originates from people on the beach, and post-bag-ban studies in Maine, Washington State, and New Jersey all found increased environmental impact and increased plastic sales following the bans. Plant-based polyethylene and polypropylene exist today and are identical in performance and recyclability to fossil fuel-derived versions — a more credible near-term innovation than novel biopolymers, which currently lack life cycle evidence of reduced environmental impact. Notable Quotes "Everything you know about plastics comes from a source that you don't trust. Maybe it's time to put that aside for 10 minutes and just consider what scientists say about it." — Dr. Chris DeArmitt "Plastic is actually net fossil fuel and carbon dioxide negative because they make cars lighter, they make airplanes lighter, they reduce food waste, and they insulate your homes." — Dr. Chris DeArmitt "The World Wildlife Fund tells us that we eat a credit card a week of microplastic. Science says that would take 20,000 years to do." — Dr. Chris DeArmitt "People think that because it's synthetic, it's like completely alien and different, and it really isn't. There's no property of polymers which is really different to anything natural." — Dr. Chris DeArmitt "The people with the most passion are doing the most harm because they didn't check the facts before they went off. They're like an unguided missile — they've got a big warhead but no guidance system." — Dr. Chris DeArmitt Resources Plastics Research Council   Shape the System is  an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth Ventures More about KPMG High Growth Ventures Scale up for success.

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.

What can a national litter study tell us about human behavior, environmental stewardship, and the future of America's communities?In this episode of Purpose 360, Carol Cone welcomes David Scott, Senior Vice President of Impact and Analytics at Keep America Beautiful, to discuss the organization's newly released National Litter Study—one of the most comprehensive analyses of litter and waste behavior in the United States.The findings reveal encouraging progress, including a 34% decline in litter along roadways and waterways since the previous study. But the research also uncovers important challenges, from rising tire waste and cardboard litter to significant concentrations of debris along America's coastlines.Together, Carol and David explore what the data reveals about changing consumer habits, why litter is fundamentally a behavioral issue, and how cleaner communities contribute to stronger local economies, safer neighborhoods, and healthier environments. David also shares practical insights into the proven strategies that help reduce litter, the role of shared responsibility, and why community engagement remains one of the most effective tools for creating lasting change.Purpose 360 is produced by TruStory FM.Full Show Notes & Resources HereView on YouTube Here (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (00:13) - David Scott, Keep America Beautiful (02:39) - David's Background (04:18) - Their First Litter Study (06:02) - The Litter Study (08:53) - Coastal Areas (12:01) - Change in Consumption (14:29) - Litter Bugs (15:17) - Impact of Cleaner Places (17:07) - Key Messages (19:12) - When Seeing Someone Litter (20:15) - Social Cleanups (22:11) - Last Thoughts (24:02) - Wrap Up

SITTING IN THE UNCOMFORTABLE MIXED WITH 'WHAT IS THE NAUGHTIEST THING YOU DID AS A CHILD? The last year has been turbulent. That's probably the most honest word for it. I've been running United ArtSpace for ten years, and for six of those years I had a repeatable system that just worked. Launches, events, rinse and repeat. But something was different. The online world changed. I changed. And for the last twelve months I've been sitting in this uncomfortable, uncharted place of not quite knowing what comes next. I know a lot of you are sitting in that same place right now. I see it across friends in business and artists too. And I just want to say if that's you, you're not alone and you're not broken. You're in the exploratory phase. The messy middle. The part that comes before things click back into place. In our Creative Way process, we call this the creative cycle. You start confused, you explore, you experiment and eventually, things start to take shape again. I'm very much in the exploring stage right now. Saying yes to things I wouldn't usually say yes to. Litter picking in my local community. A retreat. Working with corporates like Nestlé and Harrods on confidence and speaking. Things that feel a bit left field but keep pulling me back to the same thread: helping people grow confidence in themselves and their work. And slowly, that's shaping what Creative Living is becoming. Now. The Naughty Stories. I put the question out on socials and the response was something else. I asked, what is the naughtiest thing you have done as a child, listen to the responses in the podcast as they are FUNNY. If you want to share your story, click here: >> FACEBOOK  >> INSTAGRAM

It's been one year since the killing of former House Speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their golden retriever, Gilbert.Gilbert started out as a service dog in training through Helping Paws, the Eden Prairie nonprofit that trains assistance dogs for people with physical disabilities, veterans and first responders living with PTSD. But Gilbert was ultimately deemed a little too friendly for the job, and the Hortmans adopted him as their own.In the months following their deaths, thousands of people donated to Helping Paws in their memory. That support helped create the Hortman Heroes Fund, which will train future service dogs for veterans and first responders with PTSD.MPR News host Nina Moini got a tour of the Helping Paws facility from executive director Alyssa Golob.

Killarney has retained its place among Ireland’s cleanest towns in the latest Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL) survey. Jerry spoke to Michael Gleeson, Killarney Looking Good Chairperson.

Ennis has again dropped down the rankings of the cleanest towns in the country. The latest Irish Businesses Against Litter survey ranks Ennis in 19th position, down four spots from the start of the year. The results also indicate a marked decline from June 2025, when the county town narrowly missed out on top spot in the IBAL rankings after being deemed the second cleanest in the country. Just five of the ten areas of the town that were assessed received the top grade, with Ennis deemed overall to be ‘clean to European norms'. According to the An Taisce report heavy litter levels were detected on the Tulla Road, particularly at the Certa services area, while it was noted that ‘abuse and neglect' was seen at a vacant site on Bank Place which is in need of urgent attention. Place St. Paul De Fenouillet was identified as an attractive environment for visitors and the Abbey Street Car Park was also praised for its cleanliness and deemed ‘a place to relax'. The report also stated that the public realm works on O'Connell Street ‘was looking very well and very much deserved the top litter grade'. Mary Howard, Ennis Tidy Towns Rep, and Conor Horgan, Spokesperson for IBAL, spoke to Alan Morrissey about what this report means for Ennis. Image (c) Irish Businesses Against Litter

We hearken to The Electras version line by line to analyze the madness, and I think we even throw in a bonus song!

Along the way, she covers a vegan vendor pushed out of Time Out Market for refusing to serve dairy,…
