Podcasts about microfibres

De son enfance jusqu'au niveau professionnel, le ballon reste le meilleur ami du basketteur. Alors tout changement peut devenir un problème.Et en 2006, la nouveau ballon mis en service par la NBA a posé un énorme problème.La ligue avait décidé de passer d'un ballon en cuir à un ballon en matière synthétique.Une décision qui a tourné au fiasco. C'est ce qu'on vous raconte aujourd'hui dans Histoire(s) de basket.Un épisode écrit par Jonathan Demay. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

In a new three-part sponsored series entitled, Threaded Together, podcast host Philip Berman looks at Cotton Incorporated's role in improving the sustainability of cotton in the textile industry.    Cotton Incorporated a US-based, not-for-profit company, provides resources and research to help companies develop and market innovative, and profitable cotton products.    It's probably best known for its Seal of Cotton trademark which was created 50 years ago, in 1973, and has become an iconic symbol to consumers and is globally recognized by the textile industry.    In this first episode Philip Berman talks to Dr Jesse Daystar, a Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer at Cotton Inc; Mary Ankeny, the organisation's Vice President of Product Development and Operations; and Dr Joe Sagues, Assistant Professor in Biological and Agricultural Engineering at North Carolina State University.   They enjoy a wide-ranging discussion covering issues from, the biodegradability of cotton and its impact on microfibre pollution, to pioneering research into composting cotton textile waste to capture CO2.   Subscribe to our podcasts and radio shows by following us on Apple, Google, Spotify and Amazon Music, to automatically get alerts when we launch a new Ecotextile Talks Behind the News podcast.   

This episode of Conscious Consumption gives an overview of what microfibres are and how we release hundreds of thousands of them every single time we do the laundry. When we wash clothes made from synthetic materials like polyester or nylon, the friction, detergent action, and mechanical forces in the washing machine cause these fabrics to shed microfibers. These microfibers then enter the wastewater along with the wash water. Because they are so tiny, conventional wastewater treatment plants are not equipped to effectively capture these microfibers, and as a result, many of them end up being released into waterways and eventually reaching oceans and other bodies of water.Raising awareness about the impact of microfiber pollution and adopting more eco-friendly laundry practices are essential steps in tackling this environmental problem and moving towards more sustainable consumption habits.Listen to learn how you can wash your clothes in a more responsible manner!Our clothes shed microfibres – here's what we can do...

Questo episodio è preso dal video sull'argomento che abbiamo pubblicato sul nostro canale You Tube (Dress ECOde). Avevamo chiesto nelle storie di Instagram se nteressava sapere di più sulle microfibre.Ho letto ultimamente un paper scientifico interessante sull'argomento. Da questo e da un altro documento sulla rassegna degli studi sulle microfibre dai tessili nasce questo episodio, che puoi anche leggere qui:https://dress-ecode.com/2023/02/02/microfibre-e-microplastiche-da-materiali-tessili-cosa-sono-e-come-ridurle/Tutto quello che sentirete è riferito alle scelte in tema di riduzione delle microfibre.La sostenibilità è fatta da tanti aspetti, che man mano dal 2108 ti raccontiamo, di cui tenere conto nella scelta dei nostri acquisti.Voce: Arianna De BiasiMusica: Hearthwarming di Kevin MacLeod (Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License); Feeling Home, Uppbeat License code: FM1QZSAXMDW50PYA; Brighter days, Uppbeat License code: BD9AGMM2EVNJV4W8; Plastic world Music, Uppbeat License code: 2ZB2ZDWPNSUGXLMO; Gentle Sunshine, Uppbeat License code: 45TLGMOJWTL1JXCQ; Simple life Music, Uppbeat License code: YVQVFQTFTJEOTTAMDress ECOde® è un marchio registrato - allrightsreserved©

For this episode, we're joined by Dr. Judith Weis of Rutgers University to discuss her new book, Polluting Textiles: The Problem with Microfibres. Listen to Dr. Weis's In Their Own Words oral history interview. A description of the book follows:This book examines the critical issue of environmental pollutants produced by the textiles industry.Comprised of contributions from environmental scientists and materials and textiles scientists, this edited volume addresses the environmental impact of microplastics, with a particular focus on microfibres released by textiles into marine and freshwater environments. The chapters in Part I offer environmental perspectives focusing on the measurement of microplastics in the environment, their ingestion by small plankton and larger filter feeders, the effects of consuming microplastics, and the role of microplastics as a vector for transferring toxic contaminants in food webs. Written by environmental and material scientists, the chapters in Part II present potential solutions to the problem of microplastics released from textiles, discussing parameters of influence, water treatment, degradation in aquatic environments, textile end-of-life management, textile manufacturing and laundry, and possible policy measures. This is a much needed volume which brings together in one place environmental research with technical solutions in order to provide a cohesive and practical approach to mitigating and preventing environmental pollution from the textiles industry going forward.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental conservation and management, environmental pollution and environmental chemistry and toxicology, sustainability, as well as students and scholars of material and textiles science, textile engineering and sustainable manufacturing.

In the latest episode of Inside the Village, Scott and Frisco dig into a political controversy in Sault Ste. Marie, where the provincial Liberals rejected a prominent Indigenous lawyer, Naomi Sayers, as a candidate for the provincial election—in favour of an 18-year-old who doesn't even live in the city. We hear from Sayers, who has chosen to run as an independent. Also on the show, the war against microfibres. Tiny plastic particles are filling the Great Lakes—and our mouths—but scientists in small-town Ontario are working on a solution. Finally, we remember Katrina Blagdon, a missing Canadian army veteran from St. Catharines whose body was finally discovered after a massive search effort that united thousands of people.

On today's episode, I'm speaking with Dr Laura Foster, Head of Clean Seas at the Marine Conservation Society. They have begun their #stopoceanthreads campaign. This is a petition calling for washing machine manufacturers to fit microfibre filters in all new domestic and commercial machines, by law, by 2023 and retrofitted in commercial machines by 2024.

In this episode, we discuss original University of Toronto research on Earth's microfibre pollution problem. What are microfibres? Where do they come from? What can we do to help turn the tide? All of this and more with U of T's own PhD. Candidate, Samantha Athey!   Primary Readings Discussed: Your Beloved Blue Jeans Are Polluting the Ocean—Big Time

A recent study has showed that the large majority of the microfibres polluting our oceans are not plastic - which has long been assumed - but actually natural fibres like cotton, wool and other celluloses, such as linen and flax.

Nella puntata 314 vi parleremo di microfibre di cotone e lana, di freni e di migrazione umane verso la Polinesia, siete pronti ad ascoltare un briosissimo Julien, un preparatissimo Fabio e una esausta Ilaria? Allora pronti, via! Schiacciate play e state in nostra compagnia per la prossima oretta.Quando facciamo la lavatrice e a seguito dei processi industriali di produzione dei tessuti riversiamo nei mari e negli oceani enormi quantità di microfibre. Si è sempre creduto che queste fibre fossero per la maggior parte di origine sintetica. Infatti le fibre naturali come cotone e lana dovrebbero essere biodegradabili… Un recente studio però, ha analizzato la composizione percentuale delle microfibre dandoci un risultato davvero inatteso, ce lo racconta Julien.Tutti noi sappiamo a cosa servono i freni. A frenare. Che è una gran cosa quando vogliamo fermarci o ridurre velocità, vero? Fabio, il nostro ingegnere di pista, aiutato da Giuliana, ci spiega come funzionano questi simpatici alleati!Sapete chi è il dottor Michael Smith? No? Male molto, male. Dopo questa puntata diventerete sui fan almeno quanto lo siamo noi.Come è stata popolata la Polinesia? Anche per voi è una domanda che vi tiene svegli la notte? Oggi troverete finalmente la risposta. In questo momento in cui tutti sognamo spiagge bianche e incontaminate costellate di palme, riviviamo il viaggio attraverso il Pacifico che ha portato civiltà e patate dolci in queste isole lontane.

Puntata ricca:- I rifugi finalmente riaprono.

Ci abbiamo dato un'occhiata.- Ecco il quinto anello della serie ideato da due grandi firme: Michieli e Sapienza.

A l’occasion de la journée mondiale des Océans je reçois Olivia Chammas de Get Real et Romy Hentinger de la Fondation Tara Océan. Get Real, c’est un collectif de personnes conscientes, passionnées par la mode et déterminées à changer les choses. Formé en 2018 par un directeur de création, Jordane Salomez a été rejoint par Olivia Chammas, fondatrice du Big Blue Project, et Alexia Tronel, cofondatrice de l'Atelier Bartavelle et d'ITINÉRANCE, en tant qu'associées.Tara Océan est une ONG créée en 2003 qui organise des expéditions des études pour comprendre l’impact du changement climatique sur nos océans.L’enjeu de cet épisode : comprendre l’impacte de notre industrie sur les Océans. “ Le plus gros impact environnemental de la mode n’est pas uniquement lié aux matières premières, à la production ou au transport, mais également au lavage des vêtements. À cause de la pollution des eaux et des sols qu’elle provoque.” Ce que vous allez apprendre dans l’épisode :Tara Océan c’est quoiLe rôle de RomyLes sources de pollution de nos océansLa mission microplastics, c’est quoi? Les premiers résultatsL’impact sur notre santé Quels sont les solutions aujourd’hui existantes pour diminuer l’impact du textile sur les océansPourquoi on ne supprime pas les fibres les plus polluantes Quelles sont les alternatives à ces fibres les plus polluantes? “ Il ya des solutions en amont au niveau du sourcing textile, et en aval au niveau du consommateur. La première étape est de sensibiliser les acheteurs matières sur l’impact néfaste des fibres synthétiques spécifiquement acrylique et polyester sur les eaux. Rechercher les alternatives, sans se ruer nécessairement sur les polyester recyclé qui est peut être moins impactant à produire mais se dégrade plus vite que le polyester en perdant des microfibres.” Références dans l’épisodeFondationtaraocean.org Browne et al. 2011, Environmental Science & Technology

Britt, one of my former high school students, now a marine biologist is the living blueprint of my ideal human. Using her world travels to really find her true passions in life, Britt returned to university to get a degree in marine biology and now uses her love of science and art to raise awareness about plastic pollution, specifically microfibres. See Britt's art at brittbuirs.com, follow her Vancouver Island lifestyle on Instagram at @theoceangypsea. Britt also references a solution to microfibres called the Lint LUV-R By environmentalenhancements.ca, an invention of Nova Scotian Blair Jollimore. She will also be doing research with exxpedition.com.

For 7 years, Fashion Revolution has been asking, #whomademyclothes? on a quest for greater transparency in fashion supply chains. Now, they're asking #WhatsInMyClothes?, and say: "The answer is far more complicated than the composition label on the side seam. This is the starting point, but it doesn’t account for the plastics lurking in our clothes, the trees cut down to transform wood into viscose, or the pesticides sprayed on fields of cotton, leaching into waterways." Fashion Revolution's co-founder Carry Somers is focusing on the plastics issue, and has just returned from voyage of discovery to research microplastic pollution in the oceans. Meet the inspiring activist, fair trade fashion pioneer and now explorer!   Don't forget to check the shownotes for all links and further reading. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO WARDROBE CRISIS.

Thomas Stanton, a PhD researcher at the University of Nottingham, talks about his research on microfibre pollution, presenting a somewhat surprising conclusion.Earlier this year, Tom and other researchers published a paper in the journal Science of the Total Environment that quantified the abundance of both natural and synthetic fibres found in freshwater and atmospheric samples in Nottingham, Leicestershire and Staffordshire, UK.They took regular samples between November 2017 and July 2018 and found that, actually, natural fibres are far more abundant in the environment than the microplastic fibres that are most commonly mentioned in the press.To find out more about his research, check out this latest podcast from WTiN.

According to a recent study, a single fleece jacket can release up to 250,000 microfibres in just one single load of washing. Those fibres are going straight into our waters and into our food chain, which means that we could actually be eating our own clothes! Rachael Z. Miller has found a way to fight the microfibre nightmare, one laundry wash at a time. Creator of the Cora Ball, a device that helps to catch the micro-plastics from your laundry water, Rachael is big on little acts of sustainability. In today’s episode we talk all things ‘global plastics crisis’, zeroing in on micro-plastics. We chat about her incredible invention and how it’s designed to help anyone who wears and washes clothes to reduce microfibre pollution.   Key takeaways: Throw the Cora Ball into your washing machine and it will catch the microfibres, stopping them going down the drain and ending up in our waterways. The device's design was modelled on coral! Coral feeds by catching little objects as water washes through and past it. The Cora Ball can catch up to 26% of the fibres that would otherwise wash down your drain! If you have a big washing machine Rachael recommends using 2 or 3 balls. Any textile (clothing, bedding, curtains, etc), even natural fibres, is vulnerable to breaking down in the wash.   Links and resources: https://www.nourishedlife.com.au/brand/cora-ball.html http://rozaliaproject.org/stop-microfiber-pollution/   Join my podcast Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/411413173057787   Connect: https://www.nourishedlife.com.au/podcast https://www.facebook.com/nourishedlife/ https://www.instagram.com/nourishedlife/

Between 2014 and 2016, an increasing number of journalists began reporting on disturbing new research showing that microfibers from synthetic garments were making their way from our washing machines into fish and other aquatic animals. Since then the textile industry has been scrambling to understand the extent of the problem and what our industry should do about it. It's now 2019, so what more have we learned since researchers first sounded the alarm? And what is our industry currently doing to address the challenge? Mike sat down with Sophie Mather from The Microfibre Consortium to get updated. Sophie has been working at the forefront of this issue, so there is no one better to provide a "state of play" on this topic. Listen for the first 25 minutes to get a comprehensive industry update and continue listening to dive deeper into the weeds.

After his strong EP "Silhouettes", Digital Diamonds presents KUNI's debut album! 13 unique tracks, each constituting their own narrative. In a world driven by perpetual change and a yearning for freedom, @KUNIsound represents a sonic reality that is not restricted by any rules. This is reflected in the album title 'Coalesce' meaning 'come together to form one mass or whole'... which is what this versatile artist embodies. Immerse yourselves in the journey.

If Anemones and their close relatives, corals, don't have a tough enough time with climate change consequences that cause mass bleaching, they seem to also be dealing with taking in microfibres.  Microfibres enter the ocean through "shedding" during the laundry cycle, enter into the sewage treatment system and get into local waterways that will empty into the ocean, eventually.  The microfibres could be from nylon, polyester, and polypropylene materials. Take a look and the tags on your clothes and see if these materials are on them. Chance are they are there because they are quite common.  Listen to the episode to find out about the study that discovered this possibility.

Around two thirds of fibres produced globally are synthetic material - many used in our clothing. It's emerged that plastic microfibres are being shed when we wear and wash these items - which ironically include fleeces and kit worn by 'outdoorsy types' like Tom Heap. With microplastics in the marine environment now high on the agenda, Tom hears how these tiny invisible strands can be a major contributor to the scale of plastics in the oceans. They also pollute land and freshwater and are being consumed by creatures in our rivers as well as the seas. Tom takes his 'blue fleece of doom' to the experts - Professor Richard Thompson has been leading research on marine plastics for many years. He and Imogen Napper at the University of Plymouth have offered to wash his fleece to show how much it's shedding, where the fibres go and to discuss how much of a threat they might be to animals and humans. Is Tom to purge the plastics and pursue a life of naturism...or natural fibres only? Sophie Mather from Biov8tion hopes not. She says plastics have 'many beautiful benefits' and it's just a case of developing 'good' synthetic yarns. After being frustrated by the pace of microfibre research she crowdfunded to commission research form the University of Leeds to assess which factors affect breakage. Her years in textile innovation for some of the world's largest brands makes her believe fabrics can be designed to shed less and she is sharing the research with industry. Can she help save the synthetics and the fish? Presented by Tom Heap Produced by Anne-Marie Bullock.
