There are many methods that allow us to look back into Earth's past and study its climate, including the collection of ice cores. Extracting ancient ice from deep inside some of the most remote glaciers can reveal how our planet has changed over millions of years. But it's not just about the past: what is ancient ice telling us about the future? Host Dr Alfredo Carpineti spoke with Dr Liz Thomas of the Ice Core Research Group at the British Antarctic Survey to discuss how understanding Earth's changing climate helps refine our models for the future and how the natural world is responding to the unfolding climate crisis.

Coffee is life for many of us. It's our morning ritual, a jolt that shakes us out of the afternoon doldrums, and a pick-me-up when we need to burn the midnight oil. But in the backcountry, brewing the perfect cup can be complicated. A pour-over leaves you with messy grounds to haul out and instant coffee often falls short on taste. We turned to some of our favorite professional hikers — Heather “Anish” Anderson, the Hiking Viking, Adventure Alan Dixon, and Liz “Snorkel” Thomas — to unmask the secrets to brewing the best cup of coffee in camp. We spent time with each of these world-famous hikers, learning how they use coffee in their adventures and what they do to make their morning cup of joe in the wild. Turns out their methods for making coffee on trail are as wild and varied as their personalities. They join us on the Out and Back podcast this week to share their field-tested brewing techniques, so you can get the most out of your coffee on your next adventure. Tune in to Episode 40 of the Out and Back podcast to get the details on Liz Thomas's scientific, blind study on the best instant coffee brands. Find out what type of coffee Heather Anderson uses on longer trips. Learn about Viking's coffee alternative and get a ridiculous story about how he hated his junior high school science teacher's coffee breath, but somehow wound up drinking coffee anyway. Get the specs on Adventure Alan's 1.8-ounce coffee methods that jive with even the most stringent ultralight backpacking principles.

Breast might be best for you or it might not. But the bottom line that Liz Thomas, journalist by day, breastfeeding campaigner by night, so perfectly shares with us is that there's room to support everyone in their journeys. For her, that began with a tricky start after her first pre-term labour, and the realization that both education and normalisation of breastfeeding was lacking in our otherwise cosmopolitan city, including the much needed support for breastfeeding moms returning to the workforce. Hong Kong is home to Liz and her campaign #ittasteslikelove, which provides support, education and equality for breastfeeding mothers, as well as a list of locations you can feed your baby safe in the knowledge you won't be shamed, and maybe even get a free cookie! To find out more about breastfeeding support and Liz's amazing campaign, head to www.ittasteslikelove.org or check out their Instagram @ittasteslikelove.Season two is heating up! On the list for 2021 is sex after baby, the menstrual cycle, doulas and so much more! If there's something or someone you'd love to hear more about, hit us up at mombodysoulpodcast@gmail.com.

If you’ve ever wondered how much money it takes to set off on a long thru-hike like the Appalachian Trail or the Pacific Crest Trail, guess no more. In this episode of the Out and Back podcast, Shanty tackles thru-hiking’s financial costs with author, gear reviewer, and dedicated long-distance hiker Liz Thomas. Known as “Snorkel” in the trail community, Thomas gives an honest and realistic picture of a thru-hiker’s budget. Learn Snorkel’s philosophy on buying gear, ways to save money in trail towns, and hear about all the hidden expenses that most hikers never even consider. Snorkel also takes us out of the wilderness and to the city sidewalk with 14 urban trekking routes across American cities. From Los Angeles to Seattle, Snorkel created 100-mile hikes through metropolitan areas to make the joy of thru-hiking more accessible to people who enjoy the comforts of civilization. While not the most economical thru-hike, these trips provide a unique way to experience the hustle and bustle of the metropolis.

Treeline Review is like the NPR of gear reviews. Liz Thomas and cofounder Naomi Hudets love outdoor gear and disliked having to look at multiple places for different reviews. Instead of researching the gear item itself, Treeline researches, analyzes, and then does a meta-review of the other reviews of that item that are floating around out there in the ocean of information that is the internet.What Treeline Review does is figure out where there’s overlap between different professional reviewers and amateur reviews. So unlike a lot of gear review sites, they are not about breaking news stories about the newest, gnarliest, most intense gear, but more about putting all these reviews into perspective. Liz said their ultimate goal is saving people time and money.Liz talks about the idea of buying less gear and having a better impact on the World. Getting the right gear the first time reduces the environmental impact with old purchases ending up in landfills.Treeline Review has a great Inclusivity Mission:Creating a space where everyone can feel empowered in the outdoors. We researched the field of gear reviews out there and sometimes it’s got a very bro-y tone. And gear stores themselves, even mainstream ones, tend to feel like a bro-y space, which is one reason (in addition to stores actually having my size and color preferences) I prefer to shop for gear online because I don’t want to be mansplained to. I’m an Asian American woman. When I first got into the outdoors, I had to actively repress my thoughts and feelings about not seeing anyone who looked like me in REI catalogs because it wasn’t really talked about in the outdoor industry in 2005.Website- treelinereview.comInstagram- instagram.com/treelinereview/Facebook- facebook.com/TreelineReviewWaymark Gear CompanyHeavy duty ultralight backpackshttps://www.waymarkgearco.comSix Moons DesignTents and morehttps://www.sixmoondesigns.com

Paleoclimatologist Liz Thomas on drilling ice cores, the oddities of fieldwork in Antarctica, studying Southern Ocean winds using proxies, and her pathway into science.
"I think of the trail as a great leveler...the sort of things that divide us, that become our identity, like what car you drive or even what job you have, go away. You can connect with people at a very basic human level...it really makes people reflect on who they are." Liz Thomas, CMC '07, sat down with Bryn and Zach to discuss hiking thousands of miles alone, her advocacy work on behalf of environmental conservation, and getting hooked on urban hiking.

Join Me at Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=5262583After her First Grade teacher took her class out on a nature walk, Liz “Snorkel” Thomas started asking her parents to take her hiking on a local trail. Her passion grew until she was hiking every weekend in College.Snorkel’s first Long Trail was just out of college along the Tahoe Rim Trail, a loop trail which shares some mileage with the Pacific Crest Trail. She found a love for the thru hiker lifestyle on this 165 mile trek.I asked Liz how she funded hikes, “There were some crazy years… One year I was in a sleep study where I learned a lot about my sleep cycles and earned enough money to fund a thru hike!” Most of her hikes were funded by her contracting work through the trail organization itself.Her favorite times on the trail usually include other hikers, but also the wild flowers, animals on a ridge or ripened berries.With over 15,000 miles of trail miles under her feet, Snorkel has grown to love the trails. They each have a different history and she loved learning how the different land managers worked together to keep them going today.Liz is an ambassador for the American Hiking Society so we talked about what they do. Celebrating their 40th year of championing trails where it counts. Letting legislature know the hot topic issues they support to better public lands and trails.When I asked Snorkel about any fears she may have had while hiking. She answered this question in a reassuring way. Though she was afraid of many things, she overcame most of them and so now she doesn’t necessarily consider them a fear. Being able to prove to herself how to overcome things in the outdoors makes her fears dissapear.“Fear can not only hold you back from doing something you want to do, but it can also hold you back from even thinking about the possibility of doing something,” Liz Thomas talking about fear.On the topic of thru hiking as a female, Snorkel said not to let your gender be the reason not to be out on the trail alone. On a long distance hike, you will not be alone all the time. There are smart ways to hike so make sure you sharpen your skills.Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/lizthomashiking/Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/LizThomasHiking/Website- http://www.eathomas.comSix Moons DesignTents and morehttps://www.sixmoondesigns.comWaymark Gear CompanyHeavy duty ultralight backpackshttps://www.waymarkgearco.com
