    PAT FLYNN: Opting Out of Learning Overload

    Why do high-achievers feel perpetually behind, even while consuming more content than ever? In this conversation, Pat Flynn explains the trap of “overlearning” and how it quietly keeps us stuck in motion without progress. You'll learn how to shift from “just-in-case” learning to “just-in-time” learning, create real momentum with a simple four-step framework, and protect what matters most with practical boundaries. Along the way, Pat shares how these principles helped him build multiple successful businesses (including a Pokémon channel with millions of followers) without sacrificing his family, health, or joy.Memorable Quotes“We all, in a way, are not just our overlearning, but we're getting over-inspired. We're so connected with so many amazing people out there who teach us this and push us over here, and then we're pulled over this way. We're spread so thin it's we're we're not seeing any results in our own life.”“Now we all have access to all the same kind of information, but we're still treating it as if it's scarce…However, we now live in a buffet line of information… and we're not quite evolved to absorb all of this because we're stuffing our plates full. Not only are we getting bloated and and and slowed down, but we're also getting force-fed on these platforms.”“This is the difference between ‘just-in-case learning,' which is what we've all been doing, and ‘just-in-time learning,' which is learning what you need to know to just take that next step. Because truly the action of taking that next step, the results of that one way or another—whether there are good results or bad results—can teach you so much more than just absorbing this information and never taking any action at all.” “[Silence] allows me to be with myself and to digest the things that I've already learned, to think about my priorities and the things I've already committed to. It allows me to make creative connections between things that I have already picked up instead of just getting more puzzle pieces to try to figure out where they go.”“I mean I was always taught that again, ‘The more you know the more successful you'll be,' and there's always seemingly opportunities to inject more of that learning. And it has this sort of fake productivity that goes along with it, because it is only truly productive, in my opinion, when you actually put into action those things that you do read or listen to or watch.”“At our authors retreat, a theme across most of the people there was not optimizing for revenue, not optimizing for scale, but optimizing for peace. And that was huge to think about.”“If I give myself five months to learn, I'm gonna take five months to learn it. If I give myself five hours to learn, I'm gonna take five hours to learn it. So I almost use time as a tool to help me get to the point of action and then understanding sooner.”“I've developed this rule called the 20% Itch Rule, and that is, out of all the things you do, 80% of your time is dedicated to the things you've already committed to, the things that, the responsibilities you have, the things that you've already said, yes to. The last 20% of time, allocate for curiosity, for play, for experimentation.”Key TakeawaysOverlearning Is a Hidden Productivity Trap. Constant consumption creates a sense of progress without producing results—and often adds more “to-dos” than your life can hold.Shift from “Just-in-Case” to “Just-in-Time.” Learn only what you need for the next step, then take action. Real learning accelerates through doing.Use the 4-Step Lean Learning Cycle. Identify the next step → choose one resource → implement → review. Repeat.Silence Helps You Digest What You Already Know. Pat's “silent car” habit creates space for integration, creativity, and clarity.Watch for “Junk Sparks.” Many ideas are just distractions dressed up as opportunity—especially when algorithms reduce the friction to buy, click, or binge.Try the “20% Itch Rule.” Dedicate 80% of your time to current commitments and responsibilities, and reserve 20% for curiosity, experimentation, and play—without blowing up your life.Optimize for Peace, Not Scale. More revenue isn't always worth the hidden cost. A Double Win means there's still room for what makes you feel most alive.ResourcesSmart Passive Income (Pat's Business)Superfans (Book)Lean Learning (Book)Watch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/aLp6hHTrYQsThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

    This week on Sinica, I speak with Mark Sidel, the Doyle Bascom Professor of Law and Public Affairs at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a senior fellow at the International Center for Not for Profit Law. Mark has written extensively on law and philanthropy in China and across Asia, including widely cited analyses of how the Chinese security state came to play a central role in managing foreign civil society organizations. Since the Law on the Management of Domestic Activities of Overseas NGOs took effect on January 1, 2017, China has introduced a remarkably comprehensive, vertically integrated system of oversight for foreign NGOs, foundations, and nonprofits.We discuss how this system combines securitization and political risk management with selective accommodation of service provision and technical expertise, Mark's typology of organizational responses (survivors, hibernators, regionalizers, work-arounders, and leavers), the requirement that foreign NGOs secure professional supervisory units, the impact on China's domestic nonprofit ecosystem, and what this tells us about the party-state's long-term vision for controlled engagement with the outside world.4:43 – The landscape of non-state organizations before the 2016 law 7:06 – What changed: color revolutions, Arab Spring, and domestic anxieties 9:08 – Public security intellectuals and their influence on the law 11:51 – How registration and temporary activity filing systems work in practice 13:48 – Why the Ministry of Public Security, not Civil Affairs, was put in charge 19:31 – The professional supervisory unit requirement and dependency relationships22:48 – How the state shifted foreign NGO work away from advocacy without banning it26:17 – Mark's typology: survivors, hibernators, regionalizers, work-arounders, and leavers 35:19 – What correlates with success for those who have survived 40:41 – Impact on China's domestic nonprofit ecosystem and professional intermediaries 45:54 – What makes China's system distinctive compared to India, Egypt, Russia, and Vietnam 50:19 – The Article 53 problem and university partnerships 55:32 – Advice for mid-sized foundations or NGOs considering work in China todayPaying it Forward: Neysun Mahboubi and the Penn Project on the Future of U.S.-China RelationsRecommendations:Mark: Everyday Democracy: Civil Society, Youth, and the Struggle Against Authoritarian Culture in China by Anthony SpiresKaiser: The music of Steve Morse (Dixie Dregs, The Dregs, Steve Morse Band)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    In the ED, we regularly care for sick patients presenting acutely with abnormal vital signs, altered mental status, and end organ dysfunction. Oftentimes, the culprit ends up being sepsis, or overdose, or organ failure. But it is important that we consider rarer endocrine presentations like decompensated hypothyroidism. In this Part 1 of this two-part podcast with Dr George Willis and Dr Alyssa Louis, we answer questions like: Why is the term myxedema coma a misnomer and should be abandoned? How can we differentiate between sepsis or environmental hypothermia or toxidrome from decompensated hypothyroidism at the bedside? When is it appropriate to order a TSH, a T4 and T3? What are the most important life-threatening triggers that need to be addressed in patients with decompensated hypothyroidism? Why is it important to test for cortisol levels and consider stress-dose steroids in all patients with decompensated hypothyroidism? Why is endotracheal intubation particularly dangerous in decompensated hypothyroidsm? What is the best way to manage hypothermia? Why is the order of medications for treatment of decompensated hypothyroidism so important? and many more...

    In this episode, the CardioNerds (Dr. Natalie Tapaskar, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shazli Khan) discuss the process of heart transplantation from the initial donor selection to the time a patient is discharged with Dr. Dave Kaczorowski and Dr. Jason Katz. We dissect a case where we understand criteria for donor selection, the differences between DBD and DCD organ donors, the choice of vasoactive agents in the post-operative period, complications such as cardiac tamponade, and the choice of immunosuppression in the immediate post-operative period. Most importantly, we highlight the importance of multi-disciplinary teams in the care of transplant patients. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls When thinking about donor selection, you need to consider how much physiologic stress your recipient can tolerate, and this may guide your selection of “higher risk” or “lower risk” donors.   The use of DCD donors has increased the potential donor pool and shortened waitlist times with very similar perioperative outcomes to DBD transplantation.  Post-operative critical care management rests on a fundamental principle to apply as much inotropic/vasoactive therapy as needed to achieve some reasonable physiologic hemostasis, and then getting “the heck out of the way!” There are no standard regimens as practices vary across centers, but rest on providing adequate RV support, maintaining AV synchrony, and early resuscitation.   The RV is fickle and doesn't take a joke too well. RV dysfunction post-transplant is important to watch for, and it can be transient or require aggressive support. Don't miss assessing for cardiac tamponade which can require surgical evacuation- “where there's space, that space can be filled with fluid.”   Induction immunosuppression post-transplant varies across centers, but some considerations for use may include (1) high sensitization of the patient, (2) high risk immunologic donor-recipient matching, and (3) recipient renal dysfunction to provide a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) sparing regimen long term.  Management of heart transplant patients is a multi-disciplinary effort that requires coordination amongst heart failure/transplant cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, pathology/immunologists and a slew of ancillary services. Without a dynamic and collaborative team, successful cardiac transplantation could not be possible.  Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Natalie Tapaskar  What are the basic components of donor heart selection? In practicality, it can be a very inexact science, but we use some basic selection criteria such as: (1) size matching (2) ischemic time (3) donor graft function (4) immunologic compatibility (5) age of the potential donor and recipient (6) severity of illness of the recipient (7) regional variation in donor availability When thinking about accepting older donors (>50 years old), we ideally would screen for donor coronary disease and try to keep ischemic times as short as possible. We may accept an older donor for a recipient who is highly sensitized, which leaves a smaller potential donor pool. There is no clear consensus on size matching, but the predicted heart mass is most used. We are generally more comfortable oversizing than under-sizing donor hearts. Serial echocardiography is important in potential donors as initially reduced ejection fractions can improve on repeat testing, and these organs should not be disregarded automatically. For recipients who are more surgically complex, (i.e. multiple prior sternotomies or complex anatomy), it's probably preferable to avoid older donors with some graft dysfunction and favor donors with shorter ischemic times. What is the difference between DBD and DCD? DBD is donation after brain death- these donors meet criteria for brain death. Uniform Determination of Death Act 1980: the death of an individual is The irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions or The irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including those of the brain stem DCD is donation after circulatory death- donation of the heart after confirming that circulatory function has irreversibly ceased. Only donors in category 3 of the Maastricht Classification of DCD donors are considered for DCD donations: anticipated circulatory arrest (planned withdrawal of life-support treatment). DCD hearts can be procured via direct procurement or normothermic regional perfusion (NRP). The basic difference is the way the hearts are assessed, either on an external circuit or in the donor body. For the most complex recipient, DCD may not be utilized at some centers due to concern for higher rates of delayed graft function, but this is center specific and data is still evolving. What are some features surgeons consider when procuring the donor heart? Visual assessment of the donor heart is key in DBD or NRP cases. LV function may be hard to assess, but visually the RV can be inspected. Palpation of the coronary arteries is important to assess any calcifications or abnormalities. Ventricular arrhythmias at the time of procurement may be concerning. Key considerations in the procurement process: (1) Ensuring the heart remains decompressed at all times and doesn't become distended (2) adequate cardioplegia delivery (3) aorta is cross-clamped properly all the way across the vessel (4) avoiding injury to adjacent structures during procurement What hemodynamic parameters should we monitor and what vasoactive agents are used peri-heart transplant? There is no consensus regarding vasoactive agent use post-transplant and practice varies across institutions. Some commonly seen regimens may include: (1) AAI pacing around 110 bpm to support RV function and preserve AV synchrony (2) inotropic agents such as epinephrine and dobutamine to support RV function (3) pulmonary vasodilators such as inhaled nitric oxide to optimize RV afterload Early post-transplant patients tend to have low cardiac filling pressures and require preload monitoring and resuscitation initially. Slow weaning of inotropes as the patient shows signs of stable graft function and hemodynamics. RV dysfunction may manifest as elevated central venous pressure with low cardiac index or hypotension with reducing urine output. Optimize inotropic support, volume status, metabolic status (acidosis and hypoxia), afterload (pulmonary hypertension), and assess for cardiac tamponade. Tamponade requires urgent take-back to the operating room to evacuate material. Refractory RV failure requires mechanical circulatory support, with early consideration of VA-ECMO. Isolated RV MCS may be used in the right clinical context. Why do pericardial effusions/cardiac tamponade happen after transplant? They are not uncommon after transplant and can be due to: Inherent size differences between the donor and recipient (i.e. if the donor heart is much smaller than the recipient's original heart) Bleeding from suture lines and anastomoses, pacing wires, and cannulation sites Depending on the hemodynamic stability of the patient and the location of the effusion, these effusions may require urgent return to the OR for drainage/clot evacuation via reopening the sternotomy, mini thoracotomy, and possible pericardial windows. What are the basics of immunosuppression post-transplant? Induction immunosuppression is variably used and is center-specific. Considerations for using induction therapy may include: (1) high sensitization of the patient (2) younger patients or multiparous women with theoretically more robust immune systems (3) crossing of recipient antibodies with donor antigens (3) renal function to provide a CNI sparing regimen long term Some considerations for avoiding induction may include: (1) older age of the recipient (2) underlying comorbid conditions such as infections or frailty of the recipient What are expected activity restrictions post-transplant? Sternal precautions are important to maintain sternal wire integrity. Generally avoiding lifting >10 pounds in the first 4-12 weeks, no driving usually in the first 4 weeks, monitoring for signs and symptoms of wound infections, and optimizing nutrition and physical activity. Cardiac rehabilitation is incredibly important as soon as feasible. References Kharawala A , Nagraj S , Seo J , et al.

    Eve gives an overview of current and future consumer trends where dairy can play a role. Functional foods, health and wellness, high protein foods, fermented and cultured foods, women's health, brain health, and aging are all part of the mix. (7:26)The panelists discuss the healthfulness of saturated fats, the resurgence of butter, milk's bioactive compounds, and how best to reach the public about the health benefits of dairy. (10:41)Eve talks about marketing to Gen Z consumers, who are motivated by novelty. How do we reimagine a food that's been here for thousands of years? What new ways can we talk about it? What ways can we optimize dairy science and research to show up in generative systems like ChatGPT? (20:34)The group then tackles the topic of lactose. Lactose and honey are the only two sugars not made by plants. Why is it lactose that is in the milk of mammals? Dr. Jiminez-Flores thinks lactose is a dark horse in dairy and we have much yet to discover about it. He notes that some milk oligosaccharides are not digested by babies, but are used by bacteria in the development of a healthy microbiome. Dr. Lucy notes that dairy also contains peptides that have been found to reduce hypertension. The group also delves into how dairy products can be part of preventative health care. (23:53)Do consumers perceive dairy products to be minimally processed? Eve explains that dairy is perceived as a clean, fresh food. Given the current trend to reduce additives and food dyes, she sees potential for dairy food science innovation in this area. Dr. Aldrich talks about the glycemic index of lactose-free milk. (38:13)The panelists agree that dairy has a great upcycling story to tell. Converting fiber into milk and meat and feeding non-human grade byproducts are just two examples. Eve notes that younger consumers care about sustainability, but there's a huge “say-do” gap: 76% of North American consumers identify as caring about conscious and sustainable practices, but less than 40% actually act on those values when making purchases. The panel also notes that whey is another great upcycling story. Dr. Jiminez-Flores emphasizes how important consumer trust in science and research is, and how we are currently experiencing a loss of that trust. (45:48)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

    In this episode, Swamiji continues his discourse on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 9, Part 2, reflecting on how the laws of nature themselves point to the existence of a Divine lawmaker. He explains that while science discovers and applies these laws, it cannot account for their origin. The very presence of order in creation implies a Creator who designed it.  Swamiji illustrates this truth with striking examples:  Fish live their entire lives in water without drowning, while humans can drown in a pool—God has designed them differently.  Birds fly effortlessly because their bones are hollow, a design that even modern aviation studies to replicate.  Flamingos migrate instinctively to Siberia, a land they have never seen, guided by divine programming.  He emphasizes that if there are laws, there must be a law maker, and that law maker is God. The glory of God is so vast that saints and poets have admitted defeat in trying to describe it. Swamiji cites Homer's insight that even thousands of musicians playing for thousands of years could not complete the narration of God's glories. Similarly, Vedic literature describes Anant Shesh, the thousand-hooded serpent, endlessly singing God's praises since the beginning of creation, yet never reaching completion.  Quoting Vyasadev, Swamiji explains that anyone who thinks they can count God's virtues has a childish intellect—just as a child imagines the mountain or ocean to be “this big.” The infinite glories of God cannot be measured. Even St. Augustine realized this when a child told him it was impossible to fit the ocean into a hole, just as it was impossible to capture God's glories in a book.  This episode inspires listeners to recognize God's infinite greatness, trust in His plan, and surrender with faith and devotion. The narration closes with the reminder that God's glory is boundless, and His love for us is eternal.  About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best-selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from two of India's most prestigious institutions—IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.

      In this episode, Swamiji shares the inspiring story of Joni Eareckson Tada, who became a quadriplegic at 17 after a diving accident. Her journey from anger, depression, and suicidal thoughts to becoming an acclaimed author, artist, and founder of a global disability ministry illustrates the power of resilience. Joni explains that her secret lies in disciplining herself to give thanks in all circumstances — gratitude became her reflex reaction.  Swamiji connects this attitude to Krishna's wisdom in the Bhagavad Gita (5.1), where He teaches Arjun that yogis renounce attachment and perform actions with body, senses, mind, and intellect solely for purification. True success, Swamiji explains, is measured not by external achievements but by inner purification. Elevated yogis welcome adversity as opportunities to cleanse the heart, remaining equanimous in success and failure, fame and infamy, comfort and discomfort.  This teaching matters because it reframes setbacks as divine gifts for growth. By cultivating gratitude and focusing on purification, seekers can rise stronger from adversity, awaken their inner power, and progress steadily toward liberation.  About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management.

      In this episode, Swamiji explains how many of life's problems appear overwhelming not because of their actual size, but because of the size we give them in our own minds. He begins with humorous and revealing stories — like the Mensa members overcomplicating a simple salt‑and‑pepper mix‑up, and a cargo truck stuck under a bridge that was freed by a child's simple idea of letting air out of the tires.  Swamiji emphasizes that our brilliant minds often complicate what could be solved with simplicity. He urges seekers to pause and ask: Am I making this harder than it really is? Am I looking for a clever answer instead of the right one?  Drawing from the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 16, Verse 1), Swamiji highlights saintly virtues such as fearlessness, purity of mind, steadfastness in spiritual knowledge, charity, and straightforwardness. He explains that true strength comes from reframing challenges — not making mountains out of molehills, but seeing difficulties as opportunities for growth.  Swamiji concludes with Krishna's practical formula:  Don't let the mind make problems bigger than they are.  Don't overthink into more stress.  Ask yourself, could it have been worse?  Always look for the simpler solution.  This teaching matters because it empowers seekers to live with clarity and peace, turning crises into manageable situations and cultivating divine virtues in everyday life.  About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management.

This miracle reveals that deity worship is not about stone or ritual — it is a living connection with God when performed with sincerity.  Swamiji emphasizes that what truly counts in devotion is bhav — the heartfelt sentiment of love for Krishna. He explains how saints and devotees across ages have experienced divine reciprocation through idols and sacred forms, because the Lord is all‑pervading and responds to genuine love. Even Krishna's cowherd friends and the gopis, who addressed Him playfully as “Kana” or even “lungar” (loafer), attained the highest spiritual states through their pure affection.  For seekers, this episode highlights that devotion is not about external form but inner sincerity.

      In this episode, Swamiji begins his discourse on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 10, Part 1, where Shree Krishna declares: “I am the eternal seed of all beings. I am the intellect of the intelligent, and the splendor of the glorious.” This verse reveals how God is the cause behind all creation and the source of brilliance in human beings.  Swamiji explains that just as a seed contains the potential for a tree, God is the seed of all beings, the ultimate cause from which everything emanates. He emphasizes that intelligence and brilliance are not self-generated but bestowed by the Divine. Saints like Tulsidas admitted they were merely instruments, with God working through them to produce astonishing scriptures like the Ramcharitmanas. Similarly, the Bible affirms that holy men spoke as they were moved by the Spirit.  Swamiji illustrates this truth with vivid examples:  Bill Gates was empowered to create Windows, a common operating system, solving global interface problems—God chose him for that role.  Swami Vivekananda explained that even the British Empire, despite its faults, served God's purpose of uniting the world under a common language.  Tulsi Das revealed how Lord Ram Himself was the true doer behind his writings, showing that divine power manifests through chosen instruments.  Even humorous anecdotes, like the Gujarati millionaire cleverly using a bank loan for cheap parking, highlight how intelligence manifests in surprising ways—all ultimately sourced from God.  Swamiji concludes that whether brilliance or folly, all abilities originate from God.

Cuisinier de l'année en 2021, il est détenteur de deux étoiles Michelin au restaurant de son hôtel, Fleur de Loire. Originaire d'une famille avec des racines agricoles et bouchères, Christophe a bâti sa carrière en alliant passion pour la gastronomie et respect de l'environnement. Fleur de Loire, situé dans l'ancien hospice de Blois, est plus qu'un hôtel pour Christophe ; c'est une maison de famille, une grande bâtisse où tout est pensé pour le bien-être des convives. Ce projet, qui a vu le jour grâce à une opportunité inattendue, représente aujourd'hui la concrétisation d'un rêve et l'expression d'une vision de l'accueil, de l'art culinaire et de l'hospitalité. Christophe nous parle de sa cuisine, une alchimie entre les produits de la Loire, une approche végétale et des techniques culinaires raffinées. Son engagement pour la durabilité se reflète dans chaque aspect de Fleur de Loire, de la gestion des déchets à l'utilisation de produits locaux pour les soins et l'entretien. Avec une équipe jeune et dynamique, il poursuit un objectif clair : offrir une expérience inoubliable tout en respectant l'environnement et en valorisant le patrimoine local. 2️⃣ Notes et références : Le Rendez-Vous des Pêcheurs Lycée hôtelier de Blois Eric Reithler Monsieur Paul Bocuse Groupe BSignature Château de Chambord Enodis - Martin Pouret - Huiles Guénard - Malvaux - Werner & Mertz Caroline Tissier Spa Sisley Paris Le livre : Paul Bocuse, le feu sacré 3️⃣ Pour contacter l'invité : Le site internet Fleur de Loire ou via l'Instagram de @christophehaychef 4️⃣ Le partenaire de l'épisode : LoungeUp Découvrez LoungeUp : www.loungeup.com / contact@loungeup.com / +33 (0)1 84 16 82 20 Bénéficiez de -10% sur la première année d'abonnement, ainsi que -20% sur le paramétrage de la solution (réservé aux nouveaux clients, pour tout abonnement débutant avant juillet 2024) Pour découvrir la solution en live, demandez une démonstration en ligne ici Chapitrage : 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:01:00 - Christophe Hay 00:02:01 - Projet Fleur de Loire 00:04:19 - L'évolution de carrière 00:06:20 - L'esprit entrepreneurial 00:08:52 - L'influence de Paul Bocuse 00:11:31 - Le concept d'écoresponsabilité 00:16:47 - Recrutement et management 00:23:50 - Vision de l'avenir 00:32:00 - Questions signatures Si cet épisode vous a passionné, rejoignez-moi sur :L'Hebdo d'Hospitality Insiders, pour ne rien raterL'Académie Hospitality Insiders, pour vous former aux fondamentaux de l'accueilLe E-Carnet "Devenir un Artisan Hôtelier" pour celles et ceux qui souhaitent faire de l'accueil un véritable artLinkedin, pour poursuivre la discussionInstagram, pour découvrir les coulissesLa bibliothèque des invités du podcastMerci de votre fidélité et à bientôt !Hébergé par Audiomeans.

    It's so interesting to see how medical evidence evolves, and changes, over time. The result of course is that clinical practice evolves and changes as well. The story of umbilical cord management at time of delivery highlights this very issue very well. The ACOG first recommended delayed cord clamping (DCC) in 2012, for preterm infants, as data showed marked improvement in neonatal outcomes in that population. In this episode, we will briefly walk through the timeline from 2012 to the latest update on DCC which came from the AAP in October 2025, just one month after the ACOG had their DCC update. This story also exemplifies how professional medical societies don't always have the SAME recommendations, with small tweaks, in their guidance.

    Rerun: Sustainable Wood from Mass Timber, with Dr. Paul Mayencourt

    ClimateBreak

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 13, 2025 1:45


    How Sustainable Wood Helps Mitigate the Impact of Climate ChangeSustainable wood refers to the use of mass timber, which involves smaller pieces of wood that are dried and glued together in a perpendicular, crosswise pattern to form large slabs. This process can incorporate a closed-loop system that repurposes wood, promoting a circular practice that minimizes wood waste and reduces landfill usage, transportation needs, and carbon emissions. Additionally, the wood retains the carbon absorbed by trees during their growth, storing it in the floors and walls of buildings. As infrastructure demands increase, sustainable wood offers an environmentally friendly solution to meet these needs.Why the Construction Industry Needs Sustainable WoodSustainable wood, particularly through the use of mass timber, is gaining recognition as a critical climate solution in the construction industry. Traditional building materials like concrete and steel are carbon-intensive to produce, responsible for nearly 8% of global carbon emissions. In contrast, mass timber is derived from a renewable resource: trees. Through responsible forest management, trees can be harvested and replanted in a sustainable cycle, allowing forests to continue absorbing carbon dioxide. The wood used in mass timber stores this carbon long after the trees are cut down, effectively sequestering it in the walls, floors, and structures of buildings for decades or even centuries. This makes sustainable wood not only a viable building material but also a carbon sink, helping reduce the overall carbon footprint of new construction.The production of mass timber involves using smaller, fast-growing trees that are often thinned from forests to maintain ecological health. These pieces of wood are dried and glued in layers, forming large, strong panels that can be used for walls, floors, and even entire building frames. This technique reduces waste by making use of smaller trees or leftover wood that might otherwise be discarded. Additionally, mass timber is much lighter than steel and concrete, reducing the energy needed for transportation and lowering emissions from construction sites. The process can also incorporate repurposed or recycled wood in a closed-loop system, further contributing to the circular economy and minimizing waste.The climate benefits of sustainable wood go beyond carbon storage. Timber construction has a much lower embodied carbon than steel and concrete, which require energy-intensive processes to extract and manufacture. By substituting these materials with mass timber, builders can reduce carbon emissions by up to 70%. In regions where sustainable forestry practices are employed, this approach also supports local ecosystems by preventing deforestation, protecting biodiversity, and encouraging the regeneration of forests. Importantly, mass timber's design allows for prefabrication, which reduces construction time and waste, making it not only a greener option but also an economically competitive one.As cities and communities around the world grapple with the need for affordable housing while also addressing climate change, sustainable wood provides a promising solution. By scaling up the use of mass timber in mid- and high-rise buildings, the construction sector can reduce its reliance on carbon-heavy materials, sequester large amounts of carbon, and promote sustainable forest management practices. This integration of environmental, economic, and social benefits positions sustainable wood as a key player in the transition toward a low-carbon future.The Future of Sustainable Wood: Making Construction Faster and Greener Sustainable wood, especially when derived through the use of mass timber, offers a range of environmental, economic, and structural advantages over traditional building materials. From a structural standpoint, mass timber is both strong and lightweight, making it a highly versatile material. It has a high strength-to-weight ratio, allowing it to be used in large, multi-story buildings while reducing the overall load on foundations and minimizing transportation costs. Additionally, mass timber is more fire-resistant than many people realize; when exposed to fire, the outer layer of the wood chars and insulates the inner core, slowing down the spread of fire and maintaining the building's integrity for longer than some steel structures. This combination of strength, fire resistance, and flexibility gives mass timber a competitive edge in construction.Economically, sustainable wood offers cost-saving opportunities through faster construction times and less material waste. Mass timber panels can be prefabricated off-site, reducing the time spent on construction and the labor costs associated with traditional methods. This efficiency not only lowers the overall cost of building but also minimizes disruption in urban areas. Furthermore, the use of repurposed or recycled wood supports a circular economy, where resources are reused rather than discarded, reducing the environmental impact and fostering a more sustainable construction industry. As demand for sustainable and affordable housing rises, mass timber presents a compelling, eco-friendly alternative to conventional building practices.One of the most significant benefits is its ability to sequester carbon. Trees naturally absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, and this carbon remains stored in the wood even after it's used in construction. By utilizing wood in buildings, the carbon is locked away for the lifespan of the structure, helping to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions. In contrast, materials like concrete and steel release large amounts of carbon during their production, contributing to climate change. This makes mass timber a powerful tool in the fight against global warming, especially when paired with sustainable forestry practices.Sustainable Wood SkepticismDespite its many advantages, the use of sustainable wood and mass timber as a building material does have some drawbacks and criticisms. One primary concern is the reliance on sustainable forestry practices. If forests are not properly managed, large-scale timber harvesting can lead to deforestation, habitat destruction, and biodiversity loss. The success of mass timber as a climate solution depends on responsible sourcing, including replanting trees to maintain the carbon-absorbing benefits of forests. Unsustainable logging practices or overharvesting could negate the environmental benefits of mass timber by releasing more carbon into the atmosphere and harming ecosystems.Another challenge is the perception of wood's durability and fire safety. While mass timber is engineered to be fire-resistant, some critics remain concerned about its performance in large-scale buildings. Public perception and regulatory hurdles can be barriers to adoption, as many building codes and fire safety standards are based on traditional materials like concrete and steel. These regulations may need to be updated to reflect the true performance of mass timber, but in the meantime, they can slow down its widespread use in urban construction.Additionally, there are economic concerns, particularly regarding initial costs. While mass timber can reduce construction time and labor costs, the price of sustainably sourced wood can be higher than that of conventional materials, especially if demand outstrips supply. The infrastructure for large-scale mass timber production is still developing, and until it reaches full maturity, the material may remain more expensive and less accessible than concrete or steel, limiting its adoption in some markets. Over time, these challenges may be addressed, but they highlight the need for careful planning, regulation, and investment in the mass timber industry.Who is Our Guest?Dr. Paul Mayencourt is a researcher and educator at studying low-carbon design solutions in architecture.
