“Much of our infrastructure isn't built to withstand certain kinds of flooding or certain levels of heat. And yet, as the climate changes, so many of the things… that we did know in a world with a stable climate, those are now being upended. And all of that affects costs fundamentally… So, we need to transition to net zero…The three pieces of (federal) legislation are all about investing in America and making sure that from the innovation to commercialization pipeline, we are helping those goods get to market at scale, at prices consumers can afford.” Heather Boushey on Electric Ladies Podcast Climate change affects the entire economy, especially our infrastructure, like transportation, energy and electric power systems, buildings, manufacturing, etc. and every one of us, from consumers to businesses to investors, to education etc. Every sector, every community, every income bracket. NOAA calculated it's already caused almost $3 trillion in damages. The Biden administration signed three massive bills into law with Congress's help that address this pivot to a net zero economy and upgrading our infrastructure. Listen to Heather Boushey, Member of the White House Council of Economic Advisors and Chief Economist of the Invest in America Cabinet, in this exclusive and rare interview by Joan Michelson on Electric Ladies Podcast explain how we can economically do this transition and how this federal funding reduces our risks and costs to do, while also expediting this transition to help avert even far worse effects of climate change. You'll hear: How climate change affects the economy, and key sectors specifically. Resources in the Inflation Reduction Act, Infrastructure Investment Act & CHIPS & Science Act to help homeowners, businesses and investors make these changes at reduced risks and lower costs. Where the opportunities – and jobs – are in this transition, including for women. The impact on women specifically and resources available Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “For me, the key to my career was being clear on what my mission is….I feel so enormously fortunate that I found a president to be able to work for who shares that goal….So I think the lesson in that is either be the leader that you want to believe in, or find that leader and attach yourself to them and see what amazing things you can do together. But, for me, it's been about being clear on what it is that I wanted to achieve.” Heather Boushey on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here too.

Stop trying to dismantle our public goods! NOAA, or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is one of those monolith of a government organization that is silently a part of our lives but we never notice. Everything that is even slightly related to weather or climate is probably related to NOAA. As we break all the heat records and witness climate catastrophes, remember we need to both change our own action AND work to hold those big corporations responsible. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Upcycle, reject consumerism, and remember that as long as everyone try their best, we are making a difference.

The 2023 hurricane season has so far been a wild ride — but that shouldn't be a surprise. With the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) swinging into an El Niño pattern and reports of triple-digit ocean temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico, June through November was bound to bring some noteworthy activity, and that pattern could continue.But what does the combination of El Niño — which is known to dampen hurricane activity — and record-breaking sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic have to do with an active 2023 hurricane season? Well, a lot.The influence of these weather phenomena is readily apparent from the activity in the Gulf of Mexico at the end of August. From Hurricane Idalia, which brought considerable damage to the Florida coast, to Hurricane Franklin, which soaked Hispaniola and spun a little too close for comfort off the coast of Bermuda, the 2023 hurricane season is peaking. Not to mention that the season started off with the simultaneous appearance of Hurricanes Bret and Cindy.In this episode, host Maiclaire Bolton Smith sits down again with CoreLogic Director of Catastrophe Response Jon Schneyer to talk about the science behind the interaction between ENSO and sea surface temperatures and how knowing a little science can help with seasonal hurricane predictions.In This Episode:2:20 – What is El Niño and what does it mean as we shift from La Niña to El Niño conditions?3:50 – Are the patterns we are seeing this year abnormal?6:42 – Erika Stanley goes over the numbers in the property market.7:53 – How do ocean patterns affect hurricane activity?12:03 – Are we on track to fulfill NOAA's predictions of an above-average hurricane season in 2023? 13:51 – Update on the 2023 hurricane season.Links:CoreLogic monthly economic reportsWeather response and analysis by Jon SchneyerUp Next: Can Wildfire Mitigation Stop the California Insurer Exodus?Find full episodes with all our guests in our podcast archive here: https://clgx.co/3zqhBZt

On The Capitol Beach, host Derek Brockbank is joined by Adam Schempp with the Environmental Law Institute and Daniel Govoni with North Carolina Division of Coastal Management to explore federal consistency as established by the Coastal Zone Management Act. Federal consistency is a rare policy that requires the federal government to coordinate with a state before any federal action takes place in that state's coastal zone. Each state, with the approval of NOAA, can establish “enforceable policies” that determine what state rules and regulations can trigger federal consistency. Daniel is a federal consistency coordinator for NC and provides local examples and a state perspective; Adam and ELI have recently released a report entitled, “Strong Enforceable Policies: Examples and Tips”, and provide a national explanation. Further learning on this topic can be done through Digital Coast's learning module on federal consistency. This podcast gets wonky – which I think we mention 5 or 6 times during the pod! – but provides a great overview of complicated but important coastal policy.

A record 40% of the world's oceans are experiencing marine heat waves, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). This temperature shift is especially notable in the Gulf states and threatens the health of their oceanic ecosystems. It could also lead to an increase in hurricane activity and intensity and puts the Gulf Stream in danger of collapsing. What's causing these marine heat waves and how worried should we be? We're joined by NOAA Chief Scientist Dr. Sarah Kapnick to help us dig into it.

Today, ASGA announced a partnership with the GotOne app (“GotOne”) to help expand the data collection for the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries' (“MA DMF”) ongoing study on release mortality of striped bass.This partnership will utilize the capabilities of the GotOne to enable volunteer recreational anglers to track and directly submit data on landings, harvest and potential survival. ASGA has worked closely with GotOne's founder, Luyen Chou, over the past year to ensure that the app protects anglers' privacy, while collecting the data needed to support fisheries science and management. The partnership between the ASGA, MA DMF and GotOne supports directives from NOAA to explore new technology that enable more effective data collection utilizing the recreational angling community. This partnership between private, non-profit and government agencies can provide a broader template for recreational fishermen to contribute to science in a meaningful way.#BetterBusinessThroughConservation
Hello and welcome to Cause of Death – 100 Seconds to Midnight. I'm your host, Jackie Moranty. In the last 50 years we've lost more than 4,000 species that are vital to their habitats. These animals played an important role in the support of their ecosystems. Some were predators and some were prey, but they all had one natural enemy: Man. As humans grew in numbers, these animals were overhunted, exposed to pesticides, and driven into smaller and smaller habitats. The land was needed for the King of the Beasts. It's 90 seconds to midnight, and our wildlife suffers under the heavy burden of human encroachment. From logging to drilling for oil, overdevelopment of wild lands to water diversion, animals are disappearing, never to be seen again.

President Joe Biden and the UN are likely to declare an “official” global climate emergency next week. All the signs are there. The chatter, and the behind the scenes maneuvering. The UN's website now has a climate emergency page. Biden the other day stopped short, but when the new temperature numbers are issued on August 15by NOAA, that may be all the justification Biden needs. The “melting in Antarctica and the supposed subsequent sea level rise” will be another, and Lahaina in Maui burning to the ground will be cited as yet another.If Biden declares a climate emergency, will climate lockdowns follow? History suggests “yes.” In a plausible scenario, we could see gas rationing, restrictions on electricity use, and limits on air travel. Enjoy steaks? Well, you can forget those.But what is the truth about Antarctica ice and Maui fires? Tune in LIVE at noon CT on Friday, August 11 to find out. Host Anthony Watts and Heartland's H. Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Donald Kendal will discuss it all, and more.
The gang talks to Chris Ahr, NOAA investigator and the inspiration for Mack's “Codename Starman” novels, about his burgeoning Hollywood career. Raven on the sickening history of a concert hall in the Philippines. Switch on the day UFO creatures invaded Rome, Ohio. Plus, Mack reviews Oppenheimer and JJ reveals why he could never play guitar for the Hollywood Vampires.

As heat waves roll across so much of the world, oceans are also heating up with surface temperatures breaking records. Off the coast of southern Florida, surface water temperatures have topped 100 degrees Fahrenheit, triggering a massive bleaching event of some coral reefs. William Brangham discussed what's happening with NOAA researcher Katey Lesneski. PBS NewsHour is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
On this edition of Your Call, we'll discuss the record-breaking extreme heat wave across the globe, and its connection to the climate crisis. Nearly 5000 US heat and rainfall records have been broken or tied in the last 30 days, and more than 10,000 set globally, according to NOAA. More than 100 people have died in heat waves in the United States and India so far this summer. Major media news coverage has largely ignored how republicans and big oil companies have sabotaged action on the climate crisis for years. A year-long Democratic-led congressional investigation from 2022 revealed how big oil companies have misled the public about climate change for decades with a widespread campaign of greenwashing. What will it take to change the conversation?
More than 1,500 record-high temperatures have been recorded in the U.S. this month, according to NOAA. And a new study finds a definitive link between this extreme heat and climate change. But the biggest discovery may be just how vulnerable we are to the warming of the planet. Plus, Israel curbs the power of its Supreme Court, and tens of thousands protest. And, Speaker McCarthy's quiet winning streak. Guests: Axios' Andrew Freedman, Barak Ravid and Josh Kraushaar.

From ocean acidification to rising sea levels and warming temperatures, climate change is taking a toll on the world’s oceans and fisheries. Scientists at NOAA, for example, have found that warming temperatures in the Bering Sea between Russia and Alaska are affecting the movement of Pacific cod and Alaska pollock, and that some fisheries are more vulnerable to climate change than others. Tensions may also flare up in the coming years between fishing fleets in pursuit of stocks as different fish expand or contract their range. A research team led by Oregon State University was recently awarded more than a million dollars by the U.S. Department of Defense to study this issue. James Watson is an associate professor in the College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University and is the principal investigator on the project which is launching in September. He joins us to share details about it and what past fishing disputes on the high seas could tell us about future ones.
Portland area counties are joining together to work on a regional heat map. The data will be collected by volunteers, and public health officials hope that the information can help better prepare the region for hotter summers. In a typical year in Portland, no heat related deaths are reported. In 2021, after the record-breaking heat dome, at least 69 deaths resulted from extreme heat in the last week of June, according to Multnomah County. Summers in Oregon are heating up, and public health officials say that managing heat islands will be an important part of addressing rising temperatures. Kathleen Johnson is a senior program coordinator at Washington County Public Health. Morgan Zabow is a community heat and health information coordinator for NOAA. And J’reyesha Brannon is a volunteer with Multnomah County who will be collecting data for the heat map research. They join us to share more on the importance of exploring heat in and around Portland and the potential for collaboration among health officials and the general public.
For centuries, unusual sounds have been reported throughout the world. From the quaking "Ton der Dove-Bai" reported in Greenland to the mysterious "Bloop" recorded by NOAA in the 1990s, odd sounds of unexplained origin have captured our imagination and hinted at phenomena in our world that continue to evade us in modern times. Arguably, one of the strangest unexplained acoustic phenomena ever reported involves the mysterious "Quackers" encountered by Soviet submarine crews during the Cold War. Did these deep sea anomalies represent Soviet USO encounters, mysterious deep-sea animals, an experimental U.S. technology, or something else entirely?
