Podcasts about NIMBY

In this episode, I dive into the UK's decarbonization journey with Lucy Yu of the Centre for Net Zero. We discuss how the UK has become a world leader in offshore wind while lagging in heat pump adoption, why electricity market reform is essential to prevent gas from setting electricity prices, and how community ownership models overcome NIMBY resistance to wind projects.

Charlando de minas es el podcast de Amadeu Bonet. Me llaman la atención estos datos sobre el sector en España que comparte en una de sus publicaciones en su blog: “No nos engañemos, vivimos en una sociedad en la que todo, o casi todo, se mueve por dinero. Uno podría pronunciar sin temor a equivocarse esa famosa frase que dice algo así como que todos tenemos un precio. Pues bien, parece lógico que hablemos de datos económicos. La industria minera genera más de 30.000 empleos directos y 100.000 indirectos en nuestro país, contribuyendo al desarrollo económico y social.” Las mineras son una industria desconocida que bien merece un episodio de Kapital.Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:⁠⁠La casa ESE⁠⁠. ¿Cómo quieres vivir?Aquí de vuelta los pesaos queridos amigos de La casa ESE.

In today's Wholesale Hotline (Astroflipping Edition), Jamil breaks down the shutdown of a large co-living company, and what it means for the industry. Show notes -- in this episode we'll cover: Jamil breaks down the surprise shutdown of Docked Living in Tampa, what led to it, and the implications going forward. Despite full code compliance and permitted renovations, the property was deemed a fire hazard for housing six unrelated people—two more than the commissioner arbitrarily decided was acceptable. Jamil argues the real threat isn't city policy, but “NIMBY” neighbors who weaponize complaints to block co-living—even when properties are clean, quiet, and fully legal. What Jamil suggests you do to shield yourself. With rising costs and limited housing supply, Jamil makes the case that co-living is not just viable—but essential—for solving America's affordable housing crisis. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ☎️ Welcome to Wholesale Hotline & Astro Flipping breakout

David Waldman brings us to today's KITM, which is certainly a day. Greg Dworkin joins us with a slew packed into his Raft O' Stories™! What happens if a president and the federal government fail to follow a judge's orders? This administration couldn't just Google the answer to that, could they? If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. But, if you only lie, you also don't need to remember anything, yet you have nothing to be responsible for. Of course, judges have to come along and harsh everyone's mellow. Trump has a point; El Salvador's Hotel California is intended to be our NIMBY death-camp. Americans hate it when clerical errors happen in front of our faces. If people return from being disappeared, it kind of defeats the purpose.  Harvard University has decided to defeat Trump's purpose, which might cost them a couple of billion in funding. Then again, Columbia has turned about, and hopefully other universities are taking notes. Meanwhile, Maine is showing other states how it's done. Canadians are quick studies. The slowest of the slow learners, incumbent Democrats, are just beginning to find out. Are they bright enough to come out against the Trump Tariffs, though?  Trump's Tariff Disaster might last longer than the dollar. Time for coders to retrain as coal miners, and preschoolers to jumpstart their careers in operating textile looms. Luckily, Elon Musk has been incel-seeding his own master race, for exactly these circumstances. Rumor has it that Elon's way past second base with Shivon Zilis… She could be the one! Civil rights are for losers.

Earlier this year the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, wrote about a group of people he called zealots. And he identified one man in particular who the Prime Minister claimed was costing the country its future. But maybe he's saving it? This is the story of that man, the so-called zealots, and a prime minister who wants to take them on.Reporter: Katie GunningProducer: Matt RussellSound design: Dominic DelargyArtwork: Lola WilliamsEditor: Jasper CorbettTo find out more about Tortoise:Download the Tortoise app – for a listening experience curated by our journalistsSubscribe to Tortoise+ on Apple Podcasts for early access and ad-free contentBecome a member and get access to all of Tortoise's premium audio offerings and moreIf you want to get in touch with us directly about a story, or tell us more about the stories you want to hear about contact hello@tortoisemedia.com Hosted on Acast.

In the face of what is inarguably bad governance and fake—but spectacular!—technocracy (the list goes on and on, but we'll stop at AI-generated tariffs), we thought we'd take a moment to join the conversation about what good governance looks like. A couple of weeks ago, one of us reviewed Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson's new book, Abundance, for the New York Times, and then the other one of us reviewed the review. So we figured: let's work it out on the pod? No guests on this episode, just the two of us in a brass-tacks, brass-knuckles discussion of the abundance agenda and the goals of twenty-first century economic policy.We dive right into what the abundance agenda is and who its enemies are: innovators and builders against NIMBYs and environmentalists on David's account; techno-utopians who discount the environment and politics on Sam's. We agree that housing policy, at least, has helped the better-off create a cycle of entrenching their position through stymieing construction and production. We find another point of agreement on how Klein and Thomson's abundance agenda attempts to harness the power of the state to build, and that certain left-wing critiques are off base, but disagree about whether their proposal is a break from the neoliberal era of governance and what that even was. In some ways, we end up right where we started, disagreeing about whether the abundance agenda seeks to unleash a dammed-up tide that can lift all boats, or whether the abundance agenda leaves behind everyone but a vanguard of “innovators” in the technology and finance sectors. Let us know if you've got a convincing answer.This podcast is generously supported by Themis Bar Review.Referenced ReadingsWhy Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress―and How to Bring It Back by Marc DunkelmanStuck: How the Privileged and the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity by Yoni AppelbaumOn the Housing Crisis: Land, Development, Democracy by Jerusalem DemsasOne Billion Americans: The Case for Thinking Bigger by Matthew Yglesias“Kludgeocracy: The American Way of Policy” by Steven TelesThe Rise and Fall of American Growth: The U.S. Standard of Living since the Civil War by Robert GordonThe Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order: America and the World in the Free Market Era by Gary GerstlePublic Citizens: The Attack on Big Government and the Remaking of American Liberalism by Paul Sabin“The State Capacity Crisis” by Nicholas Bagley and David SchleicherRed State Blues: How the Conservative Revolution Stalled in the States by Matt GrossmannThe Captured Economy: How the Powerful Enrich Themselves, Slow Down Growth, and Increase Inequality by Brink Lindsey and Steven Teles“Why has Regional Income Convergence in the U.S. Declined?” by Peter Ganong and Daniel Shoag“Exclusionary Zoning's Confused Defenders” by David Schleicher“Cost Disease Socialism: How Subsidizing Costs While Restricting Supply Drives America's Fiscal Imbalance” by Steven Teles, Samuel Hammond, and Daniel Takash”On Productivism” by Dani Rodrik

Rozmawialiśmy o zjawisku znanym pod angielskim akronimem NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard - w wolnym tłumaczeniu "Nie na moim podwórku"). To pejoratywne określenie postawy i aktywizmu osób, które wyrażają swój sprzeciw wobec pewnych inwestycji w swoim najbliższym sąsiedztwie, choć nie zaprzeczają, że są one potrzebne w ogóle. Są więc za ich powstaniem, ale w zupełnie innym miejscu, z dala od ich domostw. W studiu Trójki Michał Matus gościł specjalistę od rozwiązywania konfliktów Roberta Bocha, dr Marię Bednarek-Szczepańską z Instytutu Geografii i Przestrzennego Zagospodarowania PAN oraz Katarzynę Lisiecką - dyrektorkę Praskiego Centrum Pomocy Bliźniemu MONAR-MARKOT.

Labour promises to take the brakes off building with its new Planning and Infrastructure Bill. Will the downgrading of rights to object on environmental, local and procedural grounds anger voters more than new homes will mollify them? Has the government created the right incentives to get its mythical 1.5m new homes built? And have the YIMBYs really defeated the NIMBYs?

This weke's Devoncast delves into planning and housing issues, NIMBY-ism, the cost of social housing and the ongoing process of local government reorganisation. We're joined by Independent councillor Ian Barlow, who represents Sidmouth on East Devon District Council, and hear too from Newton Abbot MP Martin Wrigley. Also in this edition of Devoncast, we ask whether the result of a by-election in East Devon could provide any insight about the potential outcome of the Devon County Council elections in May.

Why are housing and urban land use so central to climate policy? In this episode, I try to answer the question squarely, in dialogue with Matthew Lewis of California YIMBY. We discuss why EVs alone can't decarbonize transportation fast enough, how the climate-driven insurance crisis will bankrupt states, why the climate movement's own internal NIMBYs are its greatest impediment, and when green philanthropists and leaders will finally catch up.

James McWalter is the CEO and co-founder of Paces, an AI-powered software platform that helps clean energy project developers identify and evaluate the best sites for new projects. Paces streamlines the process by integrating interconnection, environmental, zoning, and legal data on land parcels—key factors developers must navigate when selecting viable locations. MCJ is proud to be an investor in Paces through our venture funds.In renewable project development, one of the biggest challenges is quickly pinpointing sites with the highest likelihood of reaching operation efficiently. As James explains, this process depends on multiple factors: the capacity of the local grid, whether upgrades are needed to connect a project, the feasibility of permitting, and more. And as we discuss, the recent AI-driven data center boom is intensifying the urgency and complexity of each of these considerations.Paces' platform is being used by both clean energy developers and data center developers who need to get projects built as quickly, cost-effectively, and cleanly as possible. A few months ago, Paces co-authored a white paper with Scale Microgrids and Stripe Climate titled Fast, Scalable, Clean, and Cheap Enough: How Off-Grid Solar Microgrids Can Power the AI Race—a report that sparked a lot of conversation. In it, they explore whether the forecasted energy demands of AI can be met with off-grid, behind-the-meter projects.Oh, and James also hosts his own podcast, Build Repeat, where he interviews project developers and others actively building and deploying clean energy solutions.With all that said, James and I dive into his background, the origins of Paces, and much more in this episode.In this episode, we cover: [2:48] Introduction to Paces and James' background[6:26] The origin story of Paces and how James met his co-founder, Charles[9:24] Key challenges faced by clean energy project developers[11:45] Permitting bottlenecks and delays[14:57] The growing challenge of decreasing grid capacity[16:01] How Paces' software addresses site selection challenges[19:11] The role of NIMBY opposition in the permitting process[22:42] How developers leverage Paces' platform[24:51] Paces' customer segmentation and user types[28:08] How Paces supports data center development[30:16] Insights from Paces' white paper on off-grid solutions for AI-driven data centers (available at offgridai.us)[38:49] The feasibility of achieving 100% renewable energy for data centers[46:10] Paces' fundraising to date and the types of partners they're looking forEpisode recorded on Feb 19, 2025 (Published on March 6, 2025) Enjoyed this episode?

But today, we're stuck. In this episode of Most Podern, Alex Yuen, Minkoo Kang, and Libo Li sit down with historian and The Atlantic's deputy executive editor Yoni Appelbaum to discuss his new book, Stuck: How the Privileged and the Property Broke the Engine of American Opportunity. They explore how America's once-thriving culture of geographic and economic mobility has been stifled by restrictive zoning laws, exclusionary policies, and fear of change—making it harder for people to move and prosper. Yoni traces the history of zoning, from its origins to its role in today's housing crisis, and outlines three key solutions: standardizing zoning laws, legalizing diverse housing types, and embracing housing abundance. The conversation dives into the broader societal consequences of stagnation and why restoring mobility is crucial for a more America's future.LinksRead “Stuck”https://www.yoniappelbaum.com/https://x.com/YAppelbaumKeywordsUrban mobility, Housing crisis, Zoning laws, Single-family zoning, Affordable housing, Yoni Appelbaum, Stuck book, The Atlantic, Urban development, Housing policy, Economic mobility, Social mobility, NIMBY vs YIMBY, Housing affordability, Zoning reform, Urban planning, Gentrification, Real estate policy, Progressive housing policy, American citiesChapters00:00 The American Dream and Housing Ideals17:37 Generational Perspectives on Community Engagement20:12 The Impact of Mobility on Society22:57 Community Concerns vs. Housing Needs25:43 Mobility as a Fundamental Right28:16 Balancing Individual Agency and Community30:43 Proposed Solutions for Housing Challenges34:47 The Challenge of Change36:37 Learning from Global Examples38:40 The Role of Local Communities43:06 Shifting Mindsets on Growth47:35 The Importance of Mobility53:09 Reflections on the Current Era

“Homeownership is the American Dream.” This saying is so ingrained in our zeitgeist that most Americans don't even pause to question it. However, according to the Black Knights Home Price Index, the average US home price increased nearly 80% from April 2015 to April 2023. Census data reveals that the median household income only increased by 4% during this period. Homeownership has thus become increasingly out of reach, especially for young professionals. So, how did the American Dream become an American nightmare?In his brand new book, “Stuck: How the Privileged in the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity,” The Atlantic's Deputy Editor Yoni Appelbaum offers a contrarian view, arguing that the crisis in American homeownership isn't actually about cost—it's about mobility. There are many places in America where housing remains affordable and even dirt cheap. The problem is that those affordable options are in less desirable locations, with fewer opportunities for high-quality jobs, education, and health care. Thus, young professionals continue to migrate to communities where opportunities are bountiful, but housing is not.Appelbaum joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss how Americans got “stuck.” Why does mobility matter so much? What are the implications of reduced mobility for Americans' faith in capitalism and the belief that our country is still the land of opportunity? If treating a home as an investment—which many of us do—means less mobility, is being “stuck” so wrong for society? Together, the three of them unpack this entangled question of mobility, homeownership, and what it means for the reformulation of the American Dream.Capitalisn't episodes mentioned:Shattering Immigration Myths: Data Beyond Borders, with Leah BoustanRaj Chetty's Surprising New Insights on How Children SucceedWhat Happened to the American Dream?

Luke Fehily is the Director of Innovation Policy at Progress Ireland — an independent think tank backed by the likes of the Collison brothers — that's on a mission to connect Ireland to proven policy solutions from around the world. Before joining Progress Ireland, Luke cut his teeth in both public and private sectors, developing a unique perspective on how to navigate bureaucratic challenges while maintaining ambitious visions for change. His current work spans housing, infrastructure, and innovation policy, with a particular emphasis on meta-scientific approaches to research funding and development. In this episode we discuss why Ireland should embrace techno-optimism, how to beat the NIMBY challenge with win-win solutions, why young scientists need more research funding, and MUCH more. Plus, we even touch on drone coffee deliveries (happening now in Dublin) and the things needed to unleash Ireland's entrepreneurial spirit. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

England's Land Use Framework is out to consultation. We speak to the academic who brought groups of farmers together to speak to Defra officials as they developed the policy. We also consider what impact the framework might have on big renewable projects in future - like one in East Anglia. The proposed solar development in East Pye in South Norfolk covers 2,700 acres in ten different locations, Local residents who object to the scheme have set up their own group called Block East Pye. They say they are not Nimbys but that the current plans will directly impinge on residents and wildlife. Food prices are up and driving inflation. The Consumer Price Index or CPI is up 3% in the year to January. However some basics have gone up by more: butter up by 18%, eggs by 4% and beef up 5%. What does this mean for farmers, who often tell us that they're not being paid enough for the food they produce? We ask an expert from the Royal Agricultural University whether price rises mean more money for farmers.Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

The lads kick off with their favourite internet cesspit—Nextdoor—where NIMBYs reign supreme, complaining about everything from faint giggles to morally questionable pub patrons. This sets Luke off on a raging rant about a recent article exposing how noise complaints are slowly strangling London's nightlife.And just when you think they've had enough internet for one day, they dive headfirst into the wild world of online conspiracy theorists and have no choice but to marvel at their sheer lunacy—because apparently, the madness knows no bounds.Email us at hello@lukeandpeteshow.com or you can get in touch on X, Threads or Instagram if character-restricted messaging takes your fancy.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

With death stalking the land, Jack talks to RP US Correspondent Yair Rice about the start of Donald Trump's second presidential term, his imminent immigration crackdown, the fragile ceasefire in Gaza, and Trump's appointment of Sylvester Stallone, Mel Gibson and Jon Voight as "special envoys to Hollywood". Plus, we watch Keir Starmer's message of congratulations to Trump, and look back a decade in Mad Mel's career, to when he benefited from the ludicrous stunt casting of Robert Rodriguez's Machete films.

Today, Adam, Chris, Vicki and James discuss President Trump's first week back in office, including his first major speech at the World Economic Forum, Britain's trade relationship with the EU, and the government's plans to say no to NIMBYism through planning reforms.

Sky News' deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico's Dan Bloom look at the day ahead in British politics.     Today Sir Keir Starmer is on the NIMBY offensive to boost economic growth, with plans to reduce the number of times people can go to the courts to block infrastructure schemes. The government hopes it will mean projects like nuclear power stations, wind farms and railway lines can call get built quicker. But can they do it and will it work?  Meanwhile with latest borrowing figures surprisingly high, Rachel Reeves is still under a lot of pressure to meet her fiscal rules. But Sam explains why welfare cuts won't help her at the spring statement.  The biggest news of the day though will of course be the sentencing of Axel Rudakubana for the Southport murders. With more details of his horrific crimes to be revealed then, Sam and Dan discuss the continuing political fallout.  You can send us a WhatsApp on 07511 867 633 or email us: jackandsam@sky.uk

Ready for inflation predictions? We discuss the places inflation could strike again in 2025. We also talk economic trends, inflationary patterns, and government spending's role in the economy. We also share the policy implications under different administrations, and how they will impact us going forward. Today we discuss... Reflection on broader U.S. economic issues, such as government spending and budgetary challenges. Analysis of past inflation cycles and comparisons to current monetary policy efforts. Speculation on future economic strategies and challenges in addressing discretionary spending. Younger generations often assume they won't receive Social Security benefits due to government mismanagement and financial instability. Reducing government spending could have deflationary effects by removing a significant portion of GDP, potentially causing recessions. Tax cuts are generally inflationary as they increase disposable income, but public dissatisfaction with perceived government waste limits willingness to pay higher taxes. Immigration impacts economic growth by providing cheap labor, but eliminating low-wage workers could lead to higher food costs and inflation. Energy abundance, particularly through nuclear power, is highlighted as a critical factor for economic growth and poverty alleviation. Analysts remain cautious about the economy's direction, advocating for managed investment risk and avoiding "all-in" strategies amidst uncertainty. Nuclear energy is resisted due to public concerns (e.g., NIMBY sentiment) despite its potential as a clean energy source. Rising energy costs directly impact household budgets, inflating expenses for housing, insurance, and transportation. Economic inflation has made $100,000—a salary once considered wealthy—barely sufficient to meet the average American household's annual expenses. Housing affordability challenges persist as property taxes and insurance costs outpace wages, undermining traditional financial planning strategies. Perceptions of climate change vary widely, with debates centering on human versus natural causes and the effectiveness of governmental policies. Conspiracy theories about disasters like wildfires gain traction amid frustrations with government responses and insurance industry practices. A significant portion of U.S. income inequality debates focus on the disparity between being "rich" (high income) versus "wealthy" (high net worth).

Oregon, San Francisco, Seattle, and Vancouver have all experimented with drug decriminalization over the past few years. The results? A deadly disappointment. Stanford professor Keith Humphreys explains why. Plus, advice on how hard a bargain Greenland should drive as a target of U.S. acquisition. And why we should embrace New York City's anti-NIMBY declaration, “It Can Happen,” as the city strives to become a CITY OF YES.

What makes someone a NIMBY? The prevailing theory suggests that people support or reject new housing in their neighborhood based on what's best for them personally. The political scientist David Broockman provides a different explanation—one based on people's beliefs about important symbols such as cities or tall buildings, rather than self-interest.

Economist and editor of Works in Progress Sam Bowman isn't content to just condemn the Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY) mentality behind rich countries' construction stagnation. He wants to actually get a tonne of stuff built, and by that standard the strategy of attacking ‘NIMBYs' has been an abject failure. They are too politically powerful, and if you try to crush them, sooner or later they crush you.So Sam lays out three alternative strategies in our full interview with him — including highlights like:Rich countries have a crisis of underconstruction (00:00:19)The UK builds shockingly little because of its planning permission system (00:04:57)Overcoming NIMBYism means fixing incentives (00:07:21)NIMBYs aren't wrong: they are often harmed by development (00:10:44)Street votes give existing residents a say (00:16:29)It's essential to define in advance who gets a say (00:24:37)Property tax distribution might be the most important policy you've never heard of (00:28:55)Using aesthetics to get buy-in for new construction (00:35:48)Locals actually really like having nuclear power plants nearby (00:44:14)It can be really useful to let old and new institutions coexist for a while (00:48:27)Ozempic and living in the decade that we conquered obesity (00:53:05)Northern latitudes still need nuclear power (00:55:30)These highlights are from episode #211 of The 80,000 Hours Podcast: Sam Bowman on why housing still isn't fixed and what would actually work. These aren't necessarily the most important, or even most entertaining parts of the interview — so if you enjoy this, we strongly recommend checking out the full episode!And if you're finding these highlights episodes valuable, please let us know by emailing podcast@80000hours.org.

Rich countries seem to find it harder and harder to do anything that creates some losers. People who don't want houses, offices, power stations, trains, subway stations (or whatever) built in their area can usually find some way to block them, even if the benefits to society outweigh the costs 10 or 100 times over.The result of this ‘vetocracy' has been skyrocketing rent in major cities — not to mention exacerbating homelessness, energy poverty, and a host of other social maladies. This has been known for years but precious little progress has been made. When trains, tunnels, or nuclear reactors are occasionally built, they're comically expensive and slow compared to 50 years ago. And housing construction in the UK and California has barely increased, remaining stuck at less than half what it was in the '60s and '70s.Today's guest — economist and editor of Works in Progress Sam Bowman — isn't content to just condemn the Not In My Backyard (NIMBY) mentality behind this stagnation. He wants to actually get a tonne of stuff built, and by that standard the strategy of attacking ‘NIMBYs' has been an abject failure. They are too politically powerful, and if you try to crush them, sooner or later they crush you.Links to learn more, highlights, video, and full transcript.So, as Sam explains, a different strategy is needed, one that acknowledges that opponents of development are often correct that a given project will make them worse off. But the thing is, in the cases we care about, these modest downsides are outweighed by the enormous benefits to others — who will finally have a place to live, be able to get to work, and have the energy to heat their home.But democracies are majoritarian, so if most existing residents think they'll be a little worse off if more dwellings are built in their area, it's no surprise they aren't getting built. Luckily we already have a simple way to get people to do things they don't enjoy for the greater good, a strategy that we apply every time someone goes in to work at a job they wouldn't do for free: compensate them. Sam thinks this idea, which he calls “Coasean democracy,” could create a politically sustainable majority in favour of building and underlies the proposals he thinks have the best chance of success — which he discusses in detail with host Rob Wiblin.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Introducing Sam Bowman (00:00:59)We can't seem to build anything (00:02:09)Our inability to build is ruining people's lives (00:04:03)Why blocking growth of big cities is terrible for science and invention (00:09:15)It's also worsening inequality, health, fertility, and political polarisation (00:14:36)The UK as the 'limit case' of restrictive planning permission gone mad (00:17:50)We've known this for years. So why almost no progress fixing it? (00:36:34)NIMBYs aren't wrong: they are often harmed by development (00:43:58)Solution #1: Street votes (00:55:37)Are street votes unfair to surrounding areas? (01:08:31)Street votes are coming to the UK — what to expect (01:15:07)Are street votes viable in California, NY, or other countries? (01:19:34)Solution #2: Benefit sharing (01:25:08)Property tax distribution — the most important policy you've never heard of (01:44:29)Solution #3: Opt-outs (01:57:53)How to make these things happen (02:11:19)Let new and old institutions run in parallel until the old one withers (02:18:17)The evil of modern architecture and why beautiful buildings are essential (02:31:58)Northern latitudes need nuclear power — solar won't be enough (02:45:01)Ozempic is still underrated and “the overweight theory of everything” (03:02:30)How has progress studies remained sane while being very online?

The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than 99% of the ocean.  In this episode of In Hot Water, Maine, we learn more about the history of the state's aquaculture sector, kelp farming as a means to diversify income, social license, and the increasing effects of NIMBY or, Not in My Backyard, which is becoming more pervasive across the Vacationland state. There's no quick fix for seafood harvesters in the Gulf, but climate solutions do exist. From encouraging species diversification to actively involving frontline communities, changemakers are leading a new path for seafood in Maine Produced by Seafood and Gender Equality (SAGE) and Seaworthy, the “In Hot Water” podcast explores SEAFOOD and CLIMATE JUSTICE in distinct regions.   Episode Guide :00 Intro to In Hot Water, Maine Edition 01:52 Meet Sam Altznauer, director of Canopy Farms, an aquaponics facility located in downtown Brunswick, Maine  03:12 While some lobster harvesters are leaving Maine altogether, some are finding new opportunities to diversify into kelp farming 11:50 Social license to operate. What is it? 13:25 What the fish? White, older lobstermen have social license to operate in Maine's coastal communities, which seems exclusionary.

Today Downing Street has continued its reset – that is definitely not a reset – by providing more details on Labour's plan to cut the planning red tape and deliver a housing revolution. Their target is to build one and a half million new homes over the next five years by building on green belt land and giving councils mandatory targets. This has predictably been met with robust opposition from several groups who are concerned about the plan, which involves building on a green belt area the size of Surrey. Can Labour win its battle against the so-called NIMBYs (not in my backyard)? In other news, it is publication day here at The Spectator! Our special Christmas triple issue is now available online and on newsstands. It includes interviews with Argentinian President Javier Milei and Tory leader Kemi Badenoch. Westminster is abuzz with the news that Badenoch is not a sandwich person – a revelation so significant that it has prompted a response from the Prime Minister. Are sandwiches ‘for wimps'? Oscar Edmondson speaks to Katy Balls and Kate Andrews. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

As the need for affordable housing grows, so does the classic conflict of NIMBY vs YIMBY, a.k.a. “Not in my backyard” or “Yes, in my backyard”. And all of this affects developers and their business plans.

Join IEA's Communications Manager Reem Ibrahim as she sits down with Andy Mayer, Energy Analyst and COO, to discuss Labour's ambitious 2030 net zero plans and the role of nuclear power in Britain's energy future. Following his recent Telegraph article, Mayer explains why the current target of transitioning from 40% renewable energy to 100% by 2030 faces significant challenges, particularly due to the intermittent nature of renewable sources and the inefficiencies in the current gas backup systems. Mayer delves into the unintended consequences of legally binding net zero targets, arguing that they often lead to misallocation of resources and expensive, marginal projects. He explains how the UK has become a world leader in expensive energy while potentially wasting capital on inefficient infrastructure projects. The discussion highlights the delicate balance between energy security, affordability, and decarbonisation goals. The conversation then turns to nuclear power as a potential solution, with Mayer highlighting its impressive 90-95% efficiency rate compared to gas's 60%. He discusses the regulatory challenges that have made nuclear power station construction significantly slower in the UK compared to countries like South Korea, and proposes solutions including regulatory reform and the creation of nuclear freeports. The discussion concludes with insights into small modular reactors and addressing NIMBY opposition to essential infrastructure projects. This is a public episode.

In this episode, I talk with activist, sex advice columnist, and progressive journalist Dan Savage about the legacy of “The Urban Archipelago,” a groundbreaking piece he commissioned and edited two decades ago in the wake of GW Bush's reelection, urging Democrats to embrace cities as their political base and future. We explore how NIMBY-captured Democratic city leadership has stifled urban potential — and why improving and growing cities isn't just policy; it's party building. This is a public episode.

The zoning debate between NIMBYs and YIMBYs is fueling a housing crisis felt nationwide. Jerusalem Demsas, staff writer at The Atlantic, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why she feels decisions about land need to be accountable to the public, why zoning boards and preservationists are hurting home affordability, and why the buck should stop at elected officials.

With three weeks to go and early voting reaching record numbers, the campaigns are circling around their drastically disparate final pitches to voters. This week, MSNBC political analyst Elise Jordan joins former Senator Claire McCaskill to highlightTrump's stark vision of the “enemies from within”, while Harris speaks to the center- and a combative Bret Baier on Fox News. Then, Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii lays out the vice president's framework to ease the housing crisis, what it means to go from NIMBY to YIMBY, and the importance of creating generational wealth for the next era of homebuyers. And lastly, Claire and Elise get to the heart of who to trust in the era of foreign interference, deepfakes and Trumpery.Further Reading: Here is the Washington Post piece Claire and Elise spoke about that shares how to spot deepfakes as the election nears: AI is spawning a flood of fake Trump and Harris voices.

The plan to facilitate housing development in New York City has come to the Brooklyn neighborhood of Windsor Terrace, and a dispute over a proposed pair of 13-story towers has ensured. David Brand, housing reporter for WNYC and Gothamist, reports on the debate and its implications for Eric Adams's City of Yes housing plan. 

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with David Dayen, executive editor at The American Prospect, to discuss the recent updates on Vice President Harris' economic policy agenda. First, Emma runs through updates on Day 2 of the DNC, escalating protests of the event, abortion on the ballot, polling in North Carolina, the US' hollow ceasefire deal, Israel's indiscriminate slaughter, Ron DeSantis' continuing failures, Arizona's primary, and the FTC non-compete ban, before watching Obama hit Trump where it hurts, and Bernie call out the continuing influence of money in politics. David Dayen then sits down with Sam as they parse through the stark difference in the economic agendas of the Biden and Obama administrations, emphasizing the administrators' role in providing at least a semblance of an economic plan amid crisis (neoliberal bank bailers for Obama, Bernie-Warren social progressives for Biden), and why just having a plan can often put you in a powerful position politically. Next, they shift to the ongoing candidacy of Kamala Harris and the slow rollout of her economic agenda, walking through various important rhetorical moves, whether gimmicky – like her appropriation of Trump's tipping policy – or a clear signal of policy – such as keeping on many members of Biden's economic team – before parsing through her stances on three key policy areas: housing, healthcare, and food. Dayen and Sam tackle her embrace of both NIMBY supply reforms and price control reform, her approach to expansive pharmaceutical costs and insurance, and major various anti-trust policies including addressing the gouging of food prices in crisis. Connecting these two conversations, David and Sam explore how Biden's progressive momentum and economically progressive administration will carry over into a theoretical Harris administration, before Dayen wraps up the show with an assessment of the US' (successful) battle with inflation over the last few years and the importance of presenting it in a global context. And in the Fun Half: Emma and the MR Crew talk movies, watch Michelle Obama's well-received DNC appearance, and admire Jesse Watters' persistent attempt to replicate Bill O'Relly's career, but worse. Ilhan Omar addresses protesters outside of the DNC as she calls out her colleagues' refusal to acknowledge myriad elements of Israel's ongoing genocide. Stephen Crowder melts down over *dropping* crime rates, Donald Trump bonds with Theo Von over opioids, and Byron Donalds calls out the culinary corruption of Tim Walz.
