Earlier this year, about 65,000 people submitted comments on a federal deep-sea mining proposal near the Northern Mariana Islands, most of them opposed. The area under consideration nearly doubled anyway. So why should anyone show up to a public meeting about the ocean? Andrew Lewin makes the case with two marine protected area processes that earned broad public support by design. The first is the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park's Representative Areas Program, which rezoned the entire park between 1999 and 2004. Two formal community participation phases, one before any draft existed, drew more than 31,000 public submissions, while standing local advisory committees kept fishers, tourism operators, and coastal communities in the conversation year round. No-take zones grew from about 4.5 percent of the park to 33.3 percent. The second is the Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary off California's Central Coast, nominated by the Northern Chumash Tribal Council in 2015 and designated in October 2024 after a staged NOAA process that drew more than 110,000 comments, over 98 percent in support. Andrew explains what those processes had that a bare petition process lacks: staged phases, standing advisory structures, clear ownership of the proposal, and a room where people feel safe to speak. He connects it to what happened in California's MPA review, covered earlier this week with Anupa Asokan, and to the Fish and Game Commission meetings in Sacramento this October. He wants to hear about your own public comment experiences, good or bad. Takeaways: A petition process with no staged phases, standing advisory structure, or way to reconcile competing input tends to produce conflict and weak buy-in. The Great Barrier Reef rezoning ran two formal public phases, in 2002 and 2003, and drew more than 31,000 submissions. Local marine advisory committees kept dialogue with fishers, tourism operators, and communities going between the formal windows. No-take zones grew from about 4.5 percent to 33.3 percent of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in 2004. Andrew recalls fisher tracking data being used to place new no-take areas where they would have the least impact on fishing. A study of the rezoning found science, leadership, public engagement, and politics all had to work together for approval. The Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary was the first tribally nominated national marine sanctuary in the US, and more than 98 percent of comments supported it. Without buy-in, a marine protected area risks becoming a paper park. Knowing how the process works makes it easier to show up, speak, and support others in the room.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we cover Climate Week NYC key takeaways with a guest who brings together perspectives from climate science and the financial sector: Dr. Sarah Kapnick.   Sarah is Global Head of Climate Advisory at the largest bank in the US, JPMorganChase. Before joining the bank, she was Chief Scientist for the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA.   In the episode, we unpack how the business and finance communities are responding to volatility from climate change, geopolitical conflicts and supply chain disruption. Sarah explains why a powerful El Niño forecast has put food security in the spotlight at Climate Week NYC.   Across these topics, Sarah says she's increasingly putting resilience front and center in conversations with clients. "You can't just build resilience for what you've seen in the past," she says. "You need to be building resilience to what we know will come in the future."  Sarah says events like summer's heat waves have led to increased awareness of the physical impacts of climate change. "It's moving from being theoretical to actually physical and financial," she tells us. "And that is what I think is going to really drive action and capital deployment in the coming years."  We recorded this episode on the sidelines of The Nest Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast is an official media partner. Listen to all of our Climate Week NYC coverage:   Tech giant NVIDIA talks AI's sustainability risks and opportunities  New York bank CEO talks affordability, AI and climate solutions at Climate Week NYC  PRI interim CEO talks changing landscape for responsible investment  As Climate Week NYC kicks off, energy, climate and national security converge  Read thought leadership on El Niño from the S&P Global Climate Center of Excellence: El Niño: The climate science view of key regional impacts and risks | S&P Global   Read S&P Global's latest thought leadership on corporate adaptation planning: As climate risk mounts, more companies turn to adaptation planning to build resilience | S&P Global Read thought leadership on resilience from S&P Global Sustainable1: Resilience as a framework for sustainability | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global  DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

September 23, 2026When Trump returned to the White House in 2025, he fired the investigators in the anti-corruption group of the FBI who were investigating Sen. Susan Collins for engaging in a pay-to-play scheme, He largely stopped investigating public corruption, The Gilded Age was known for lawmakers rewarding business followers with government contracts and political office, The relationship between MAGA Republicans and the misuse of tax dollars is becoming more obvious, HHS Secretary Kennedy has taken funds from his department's Office of Minority Health to fund security for himself, Kennedy has accepted gifts and his wife has accepted consulting fees from allies, Tax dollars are being used to pay authoritarian governments for imprisoning immigrants from the US, The administration is reversing its previous emphasis on resettling refugees, focusing instead on expelling them, often to places where they will be tortured, and all with little oversight, In Texas, an ICE agent shot a Venezuelan food delivery driver who had a valid work permit, The ICE agent was a recent hire, among those hired when the workforce was doubled after billions of dollars were provided by Congress, The NSF, NOAA, and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality are all running far behind in funding for the fiscal year, Trump's ballroom will cost taxpayers more than $300 million, in spite of his early promises, And the ballroom's design does not meet fire codes, a concern that Trump dismissed.To read this letter, click here.Listen on Apple PodcastsListen on SpotifyGet full, free access to Letters from an American here.You can also find Heather:YouTubeBlueskyInstagramFacebookThreadsTikTok Get full access to Letters from an American at heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribe

Tide vs Current: Why You're Fishing at the Wrong TimeIf you have been planning your fishing day around the tide table, you are reading the wrong instrument. Tide tells you how high the water is. Current tells you how hard it is moving, and that is what decides where the bait sits and when salmon feed. This episode separates the two, shows you where the strongest current actually falls, and gives you a repeatable way to plan any trip in any season.Episode OverviewWhy tide is vertical and current is horizontal, and why confusing the two puts you on the water at the wrong hourWhere maximum current actually falls, according to NOAA, and why it is not at high or low tideWhat hard current does to baitfish, and why that decides the bite window rather than whether salmon are hungryThe roughly two-hour window either side of slack when the food chain is most activeWhere bait goes when it cannot hold in the flow, and why you should fish the lee and back eddiesA screen walkthrough of three tools showing the same place on the same dayHow to apply all of it to September coho in Marine Area 7Timestamps00:00 - What Salmon School students wanted most01:24 - Welcome to Fishing for a Reason01:57 - Tide is vertical, current is horizontal02:38 - Flood and ebb: the vocabulary03:03 - Max current is not at high or low tide04:15 - What slack water actually is05:13 - Why timing is different everywhere06:01 - What current does to the bait07:07 - The two-hour bite window07:47 - Where bait goes when it cannot fight the current08:41 - The 1.5 knot rule09:56 - Three tools, same place, same day13:37 - Applying it to September coho14:11 - Final takeawaysKey TakeawaysTide is vertical, current is horizontal, and current matters more to your fishing day.Maximum current happens between the tides, not at high or low tide.Slack and high tide are not the same moment, and they can be far apart.Hard current pins bait flat to the bottom; slack lets it rise and the salmon move in.Fish roughly an hour either side of slack current.When the current is up, fish the lee and back eddies instead of the flow.A big exchange can mean a harder day, not a better one.Check the current station for the exact place you are fishing, because timing varies everywhere.Resources & LinksNOAA on tides and currents: https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.govNOAA tidal current predictions: https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/noaacurrents/stations.html?g=698Island Fisherman Magazine, Fishing Tidal Currents to Your Advantage: https://islandfishermanmagazine.com/fishing-tidal-currents-to-your-advantage/Navionics: https://www.navionics.comWDFW sport fishing regulations: https://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/regulationsPrevious episode on coho run timing: https://youtu.be/1rftcbGi7yQWant more?Go to https://anglersunlimited.co/gold to learn more about our membership.

El Niño ha instaurado nuevas condiciones climáticas en Colombia, aunque el gobierno planea pronunciarse sobre las variaciones meteorológicas hasta el 8 de octubre. Sus consecuencias ya se sienten desde hace varias semanas, como los incendios que se anuncian particularmente intensos este año. Actualmente, se cuentan 17 incendios forestales activos. Villa de Leyva está situada en el departamento de Boyacá. El incendio que amenazaba esta joya turística colombiana ha sido controlado en un 75%, y El Niño facilita las condiciones para que se expandan las llamas intensificando la temporada seca. La teniente coronel Diana Carolina Rueda, meteoróloga del Instituto de Hidrología, Meteorología y Estudios Ambientales (IDEAM) considera que no se puede asociar por completo el incendio de Villa de Leyva con El Niño, pero “sí podemos afirmar que la tierra o el terreno está cada vez más seco, con menos humedad, y esto favorece que la dispersión de los incendios sea mucho más rápida y sea mucho más difícil de extinguir y de contener”. Además, la experta precisó que los efectos de El Niño “ya están empezando a notarse en la disminución de las precipitaciones totales. Llueve menos de lo esperado”. Gobierno y clima La declaratoria oficial del Niño será el 8 de octubre, pero este fenómeno climático ya lleva cuatro meses en Colombia y en algunas regiones ya se están registrando máximos históricos, como en la región caribeña colombiana. “En algunos sectores del Tolima del Huila y otros puntos en los cuales estamos teniendo máximas de temperaturas, también por encima de los históricos, pues nos hacen pensar que también ya el niño está empezando a tener impactos”, explicó Rueda. "Los ríos Cauca y Magdalena, fuentes principales de nuestro territorio que atraviesan de sur a norte nuestro país, han disminuido en términos de nivel. Hemos informado que esta condición está generando unas alertas para la toma de decisiones desde los diferentes sectores”. La temporada de ciclones también es atípica este año a consecuencia del fenómeno meteorológico extremo. Rueda considera preocupante que 2026 sea “el único año con respecto a los anteriores que no ha presentado el primer huracán a esta fecha”. “Octubre es el pico de la temporada de huracanes para el mar Caribe”, recordó. La Oficina Nacional de Administración Oceánica y Atmosférica (NOAA, en inglés) de Estados Unidos proyecta que el actual fenómeno de El Niño tiene un 75% de probabilidades de llegar a una intensidad "histórica".

Creationtide A reading from the Book of Genesis [6-8 edited verses] The LORD saw that the wickedness of humankind was great in the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually. And the LORD was sorry that he had made humankind on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart. So the LORD said, "I will blot out from the earth the human beings I have created—people together with animals and creeping things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." But Noah found favor in the sight of the LORD. And God said to Noah, I am going to bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die. But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you. And of every living thing, of all flesh, you shall bring two of every kind into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened. The rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights. The flood continued and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. The waters swelled and increased greatly on the earth; and the ark floated on the face of the waters. The waters swelled so mightily on the earth that all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered; the waters swelled above the mountains, covering them fifteen cubits deep.  And all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, domestic animals, wild animals, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all human beings; everything on dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark. And the waters swelled on the earth for one hundred fifty days. But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and all the domestic animals that were with him in the ark. At the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had abated; and in the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat. The waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared. In the second month, the earth was dry. Then God said to Noah, "Go out of the ark, and bring out with you every living thing that is with you—birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—so that they may abound on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth." So Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives. And every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out of the ark by families. Hear what the Spirit is saying. Thanks be to God. Psalm 107:23-32 Some went down to the sea in ships, doing business on the mighty waters; they saw the deeds of the LORD, his wondrous works in the deep. For he commanded and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves of the sea. They mounted up to heaven, they went down to the depths; their courage melted away in their calamity; they reeled and staggered like drunkards, and were at their wits' end. Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out from their distress; he made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed. Then they were glad because they had quiet, and he brought them to their desired haven. Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love, for his wonderful works to humankind. Let them extol him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. A reading from the Second Letter of Peter [3:1-13] This is now, beloved, the second letter I am writing to you; in them I am trying to arouse your sincere intention by reminding you that you should remember the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Savior spoken through your apostles. First of all you must understand this, that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and indulging their own lusts and saying, "Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since our ancestors died, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation!" They deliberately ignore this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago and an earth was formed out of water and by means of water, through which the world of that time was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the present heavens and earth have been reserved for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the godless. But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day. The Lord is not slow about his promise, as some think of slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and everything that is done on it will be disclosed. Since all these things are to be dissolved in this way, what sort of persons ought you to be in leading lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set ablaze and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire? But, in accordance with his promise, we wait for new heavens and a new earth, where righteousness is at home. Hear what the Spirit is saying. Thanks be to God. A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke [17:26-30] Just as it was in the days of Noah, so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man. They were eating and drinking, and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all of them. Likewise, just as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building, but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from heaven and destroyed all of them —it will be like that on the day that the Son of Man is revealed. May the words of the Gospel be made flesh in us

In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Jack Moss, CEO & Board Member at Fortem International, to discuss the Natural Disaster Expo series and the upcoming Houston event (October 14–15). Moss explains the expo evolved from a UK Flood Expo launched about 10 years ago and expanded in the U.S. after interest from major agencies and stakeholders, including FEMA, Homeland Security, NASA, and NOAA, first in Miami and later California, then Houston as disasters increased in Texas. The conference brings together government entities, municipalities, first responders, private industry, risk and compliance professionals, reconstruction and construction providers, and funding-related participants to source products and services and learn how to predict, prevent, and manage disasters.

A boat's wake looks harmless right up until you watch it happen over and over. Every wake a boat throws off chips away at a shoreline that took centuries to build, and it happens on calm days, sunny days, days with no storm anywhere near. A NOAA study at Snow's Cut, North Carolina found that roughly half of all boat wake heights on that stretch of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway exceeded the largest wind driven waves measured there, and boats moving at the slow, considerate seeming "plowing" speed threw the tallest wakes of all. Habitat pushes back, and now that push has a number attached to it. A study by Doughty and colleagues found mangroves and marsh can reduce wave height by up to 90 percent, and marsh grass paired with an oyster reef cuts wave energy from boat wakes specifically by 67 percent compared to bare mud. Once a benefit like that is measurable, it becomes fundable: global blue carbon storage in mangroves, marsh, and seagrass is valued at nearly $191 billion a year, and a single restored 100 acre wetland saves local water systems about $17,000 a year, the same figure from earlier this week's Nature's Kidneys episode. Mexico's Riviera Maya coastline puts that funding model into practice. Its coral reef shields around $10 billion in annual tourism revenue, but that value sat informal for years, until a 2018 partnership between The Nature Conservancy, the Quintana Roo state government, local hotels, and the insurer Swiss Re turned it into a parametric insurance policy on the reef itself. When Hurricane Delta hit in 2020, the policy paid out $850,000 within days, funding volunteer brigades that stabilized over 2,150 coral colonies and reattached more than 13,500 coral fragments within three months. This episode closes out this week's coastal habitats series and lands on the one call to your local marina or town council that can actually move the needle. Takeaways: Boat wake erosion is mechanical, not climate driven: NOAA's Snow's Cut study found roughly half of boat wake heights exceed the largest wind driven waves, and slow "plowing" speed produces the tallest wakes of all. Healthy habitat is a measured defense: mangroves and marsh can reduce wave height by up to 90 percent, and marsh paired with an oyster reef cuts boat wake wave energy by 67 percent (Doughty et al., PeerJ). Once a coastal benefit is measurable, it becomes fundable: global blue carbon storage is valued at nearly $191 billion a year, and a single restored 100 acre wetland saves about $17,000 a year in water treatment costs. Mexico's Riviera Maya reef shields around $10 billion in annual tourism revenue, and a 2018 insurance partnership turned that value into a parametric policy that pays out automatically after a storm, no lengthy damage assessment required. When Hurricane Delta hit in 2020, that policy paid out $850,000 within days, funding the stabilization of over 2,150 coral colonies and the reattachment of more than 13,500 coral fragments within three months. The model is now expanding to Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras, with mangroves named as the next expansion.

For our 150th episode, we return to a foundational question: why does the desert need people speaking up for it? Chris offers four answers. Deserts are widely misunderstood as empty or expendable. They remain surprisingly understudied, even when familiar species such as Joshua trees are concerned. Desert protection cannot be separated from Indigenous sovereignty, migration, heat inequality, contaminated water, and the lives of working people. And beneath the science, policy, and activism lies a simpler reason: we love these places. Listeners Kimberly, Nancy, and Diane share their own reasons for caring about deserts. Fred Bell supplies the nighttime voices of Woodhouse’s and Amargosa toads at Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. After the closing credits, Chris looks back at the geographical and topical reach of the podcast’s first 150 episodes—and identifies some of the places still missing from the archive. In this episode: Why calling deserts “empty” makes them easier to sacrifice Creosote rings, desert fire and ecological time How invasive grasses have transformed wildfire in the Mojave Why conspicuous desert species can remain surprisingly understudied Environmental justice, border communities and urban heat What love contributes to conservation Where 150 episodes have taken us—and where the podcast needs to go next Resources and related listening: The National Park Service explains how invasive plants can create a cycle of increasingly frequent and extensive Mojave fires: Fire in the Mojave Desert. NPS reports that the 2020 Dome Fire burned 43,273 acres, killed as many as 1.3 million Joshua trees and exposed the forest to a potential invasive-grass fire cycle: Dome Fire.

Episode Title: What the Silence Has Been HidingSeason 3: Series Finale: "What Do You Have To Believe To Believe That?"What are you waiting for?Not in the abstract. Specifically.The investors. The board. A little more capacity. The lawyers. The kids to go off to college. To lose the weight.Or the biggest trap of all: Waiting for things to get back to normal.Here is what thirty years of sitting with leaders at the highest levels has taught Dov Baron about fate.Carl Jung wrote: "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will run your life, and you will call it fate."The fifth partner who turned out to be exactly like the four before. The job with the same impossible boss you didn't find; you unconsciously selected them. The pattern you keep blaming on bad luck.Psychoanalysts call it repetition compulsion. The mind keeps rebuilding the situation it never resolved, hoping it wins this time.It's not fate. It's the manuscript of your architecture of meaning that you keep signing off on.The only exit is seeing the pattern from outside.Normal isn't coming back. And the cost of waiting for it is something this episode names directly, without softening it, at a personal, civilizational, and generational level. IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST EPISODEThis episode is the answer. Episode 1 is the question.Start with Episode 1: You Didn't Think It. It Was Thought For You. [URL]Five episodes. One mechanism examined from the personal to the civilizational. Each episode is complete in itself. Together, they build the most important argument this series makes. WHAT THIS EPISODE IS ABOUTThis is the series finale of What Do You Have to Believe to Believe That?Four episodes examined the mechanism operating in Peter Thiel, JD Vance, and Curtis Yarvin. This episode turns the lens around.On Dov Baron. On the armor built from intelligence and called wisdom. On ten thousand whispered moments called something else. On the jaw wired closed for nine months after a hundred and twenty-foot fall. On a cat named Tuffy ‘Mr Tuf', found cold and stiff on an ordinary evening, who finally got through when the armor couldn't hold.And on the new feudalism we are already living inside. The technocrats as digital landowners. The mental and emotional taxes paid in attention, privacy, and the capacity for sustained thought. The cognitive overload designed to make genuine examination feel impossible.That's not a bug. It's a feature.Because a person who cannot finish a thought cannot mount a coherent examination of the architecture running their life.And the people in your care are living inside the consequences. THE COST OF THE UNEXAMINED LIFELeadership from an unexamined wound does not produce vision. It produces the wound at scale.This series has offered four episodes of evidence for that claim. The world has offered fifteen years of consequences.The meteorologists at NOAA gone before the hurricane season. The FDA reviewers who decided whether your medication was safe. The IRS specialists who pursued fraud by those who could afford lawyers. The Schedule F executive order removing over 317,000 federal employees and replacing them with pre-vetted loyalists.These are the operational consequences of unexamined wounds given civilizational resources.The geopolitical, economic, and environmental world has fallen off the mountain.Normal is over.And you and I and our children are living inside what comes next. THE EXAMINATIONThe armor Dov built, so effectively disguised as wisdom that it had him convinced, could not survive one ordinary evening alone with a dead cat he didn't particularly like.Because armor only works when there's something to protect.True transformation is not a new layer of spackle. It's full demolition. The phoenix can only rise from the flames when every false image has burned away.The only exit from the pattern is seeing it from outside.If something shifted for you across these five episodes, not just in your thinking but in the place below your thinking where some version of Tuffy Mr Tuf gets through when the armor can't hold, reach out directly at dov@dovbaron.com with the subject line: The Examination.Not to buy anything. To find out whether you're ready to discover what you actually believe. And who built the part of you that believes it. THE QUESTION TO CARRYThe Sound of Silence ends with the neon god still there. Still being bowed to. Because the people in the song never asked the question.You have. Four times in four episodes. And now once more.What do you have to believe to believe that?And what are you willing to do about it?

Episode 2: The Wound the Framework Needs Episode 3: The Man Who Documented His Own WoundEpisode 4: The Philosopher They Needed Episode 5: What the Silence Has Been Hiding (this episode) ABOUT DOV BARONThe analysis in this series is not theoretical.Dov Baron has spent thirty years in the rooms where the most consequential decisions get made. Not observing. Being the person that founders and senior executives call when the external success has arrived and something essential is still missing.Most people who find this series want to know one thing.How do I get access to that room?His work sits at the intersection of the Emotional Source Code and the Emotional Meaning Architecture: psychological frameworks that reveal what drives behavior, identity, and meaning before it reaches conscious examination. The same frameworks that produced the analysis you've been listening to across five episodes.He has worked exclusively by referral for twenty years. He has personally interviewed every client. And he has said no to at least as many as he has said yes to.If you are a founder or senior executive or leader in any form who has arrived at the place where what you've built is no longer enough, where the winning has stopped being the thing, where the armor has started to feel heavy in a way it didn't used to feel, reach out directly at dov@dovbaron.com with the subject line: The Examination.Not to buy anything. To find out whether you're ready to discover what you actually believe. And who built the part of you that believes it. ABOUT THE POLYMATHIC PERSPECTIVEThe Polymathic Perspective examines the emotional logic beneath power, culture, identity, and meaning. Together, we discover how psychological, cultural, and geopolitical patterns drive behaviors, not just in people, but in systems. If you've been told your curiosity is a liability, it's your greatest asset.

A NOAA aponta um dos El Niños mais fortes já registrados, com mais de 90% de chance de atingir intensidade muito forte durante o desenvolvimento da safra de verão brasileira. Nesta conversa, com o meteorologista da Tempo Ok, Celso Oliveira, vamos explicar o que esperar para cada região do país nos próximos meses: chuvas, secas e riscos para as lavouras.

O petróleo voltou a superar os US$ 100 por barril e aumenta a pressão sobre o diesel justamente no início da safra. Uma nova decisão da Justiça coloca o futuro do glifosato em discussão. Na pecuária, contratos futuros do boi atingiram preços recordes na B3.E há outros dois movimentos importantes: Flávio Bolsonaro avançou na disputa presidencial e já aparece à frente de Lula em algumas pesquisas, enquanto a NOAA elevou para 98% a probabilidade de ocorrência de um El Niño muito forte.Neste vídeo, analisamos 5 sinais que podem mudar decisões importantes no agro nos próximos meses.

The Super El Niño is officially here — and scientists say it may be the strongest ever recorded. In this episode, Patrick Kelly breaks down what a “very strong” El Niño means for fall and winter weather, global agriculture, and the future of fresh produce.We dive into the science behind El Niño — how NOAA defines it, why the Walker Circulation matters, and why the World Meteorological Organization is forecasting a near 100% chance that this event will persist through February 2027. You'll hear expert insights from UC San Diego, USF, and global climate researchers on what makes this El Niño different.After the break, we explore how extreme weather, drought, flooding, and shifting ocean temperatures are already disrupting global agriculture. From rising rice prices to volatile grain markets, food insecurity risks, and supply chain pressure, Patrick unpacks how this climate event will reshape fresh produce markets worldwide.References: TIME – How El Niño Will Impact Fall and Winter Weather in the U.S.https://time.com/article/2026/09/11/el-nino-fall-winter-weather-us/NOAA – El Niño Forms, Expected to Strengthenhttps://www.noaa.gov/news-release/el-nino-forms-expected-to-strengthen-say-noaa-forecastersWMO – El Niño Set to Become Very Strong, Raising Risks of Extreme Weather into 2027https://wmo.int/news/media-centre/el-nino-set-become-very-strong-raising-risks-of-extreme-weather-2027The Conference Board – El Niño Reshapes Global Agricultural Marketshttps://www.conference-board.org/research/policy-backgrounders/el-nino-reshapes-global-agricultural-marketsNewsweek – How El Niño Could Spark Global Crisis in 2027https://www.newsweek.com/how-el-nino-could-spark-global-crisis-2027-12331811 (newsweek.com in Bing)

Eight true encounters with creatures that weren't animals. Real witnesses describe skinwalkers, dogmen and wolf-like creatures that stood upright, stared back, and were never explained. These were not simply animals, or even cryptids: witnesses describe something that behaved like a paranormal, non-human entity. These are NOT fictionalised horror stories. Every account here is a documented report of the unexplained, told in the witness's own words.

Chance GMeteorologist Chance Gotsch breaks down what the strongest El Niño since 1950 means for the 2026–27 duck season. NOAA's Climate Prediction Center has it at a greater than 90% chance of going "very strong." Chance reads the seasonal outlook maps — warmer across the Great Lakes, the Dakotas and western Canada, drier through Missouri, Arkansas and the Atlantic Flyway — and answers what every waterfowler is asking: does El Niño stall the duck migration? Also in this episode: why snow moves mallards and cold doesn't, how to read wind direction straight off a pressure system, what barometric pressure actually tells you, why your weather app is solid on temperature and unreliable on rain, and how to spot a clickbait polar vortex forecast.

Viele Kühlmittel in Klimaanlagen heizen die Erdatmosphäre auf - obwohl die Politik längst gegensteuert. Helfen könnte ausgerechnet die Polizei.Fluorierte Gase finden sich in Klimaanlagen, Wärmepumpen und industriellen Kälteanlagen. Das Problem: Viele, die das ozonschichtschädigende FCKW abgelöst haben, sind trotzdem extrem klimaschädlich, und sie entweichen immer wieder in die Atmosphäre. Andere können zu gesundheitsgefährdenden Ewigkeitschemikalien abgebaut werden. Dabei ist der Ausstieg aus vielen F-Gasen längst beschlossene Sache, im Einvernehmen mit der Industrie. Wenn da nicht die organisierte Klimakriminalität wäre ...Wissenschaftsjournalistin Korinna Hennig hat mit Atmosphärenforschern gesprochen und sich auf 800 Metern Höhe im Taunus zeigen lassen, wie F-Gase in der Außenluft gemessen werden. Im Gespräch mit Host Melanie Stinn berichtet sie, was es für Alternativen zu den klimaschädlichen F-Gasen gibt, warum es trotzdem so lukrativ ist, mit illegalen Treibhausgasen zu handeln - und was Autowerkstätten mit all dem zu tun haben.Die erstaunliche Geschichte einer Klimaschutzmaßnahme, über die sich alle einig sind - und die dennoch zu scheitern droht. Doch es fehlt gar nicht viel für ein Happy End.SYNAPSEN LIVESynapsen, der Wissenschaftspodcast von NDR Info, ist live bei der Hamburger Podcast-Nacht am 6. Oktober im Hansa-Theatersaal zu Gast.

Return after a week off with a wide-ranging roundup covering AI tools, Earth's rotation, ancient protective statues, Canadian politics, surveillance, climate data, archaeology, body brokers, and geopolitical theories. The hosts trade clips, react to current events, test AI summarization tools, and explore how symbolism, institutions, and hidden power structures shape the stories they're discussing.   To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support. For second half of video (when applicable and audio) go to our Substack and Subscribe. https://grimericaoutlawed.substack.com/ or to our Locals  https://grimericaoutlawed.locals.com/ or Patreon https://www.patreon.com/grimericaoutlawed Key topics The hosts return after a two-week break and catch up on what's happening in their lives. Darren and Graham test Claude and Grok for summarizing dense information and debate whether AI tools rely too heavily on mainstream sources. A scientific paper about Earth's rotation and changes in the length of day is translated into plain English. Graham explains the history and symbolism of the Lamassu, ancient winged guardian statues from Mesopotamia. The destruction of Lamassu statues by ISIS is compared with the construction of a giant Prometheus statue near Starbase in Texas. The hosts discuss Prometheus, the Statue of Liberty, technological ambition, and the symbolism of monumental art. Darren and Graham revisit JD Vance's comments about "doing God's work" and debate how much context is lost in short political clips. Flock cameras, surveillance systems, and possible replacements become part of a broader discussion about institutional control. The episode explores claims involving Davos, chemtrails, weather modification, and the reliability of viral investigative videos. Mark Carney, the World Economic Forum, Canadian politics, and alleged elite networks are examined. Graham discusses BC politics, floor crossing, party loyalty, and voter representation. A story involving the RCMP and online comments leads to a discussion about free speech and political censorship. Ursula von der Leyen's comments about putting European savings to work prompt a debate about financial control and government overreach. The hosts question climate records, NOAA data, weather stations, and the treatment of historical outliers. Darren shares clips about prehistoric surgery, early human settlement in Australia, and the possibility of giants in ancient North America. A disturbing story about body brokers and the illegal trafficking of human remains leads to speculation about a larger black market. The second half turns toward Iran, Israel, Trump, JFK, Q-related theories, and alleged coded messages in official government posts. The episode closes with discussions of offshore finance, the British Virgin Islands, central banking, sovereign alliances, and the future geopolitical order.   MORE of our links: https://www.skool.com/audiobooks THE GRIMOIRE Audiobook Club and Library https://pegsandjokers.ca/ Family and Friends Cards and Pegs Boardgame online https://www.simulationmaps.com/#products Disaster Maps, Volcano Sim, Asteroid Sim, Shipwreck Map, UFO Map etc Support the show directly: https://open.spotify.com/show/2punSyd9Cw76ZtvHxMKenI?si=ImKxfMHgQZ-oshl499O4dQ&nd=1&dlsi=4c25fa9c78674de3 Watch or Listen on Spotify https://grimerica.ca/support-2/ Our Adultbrain Audiobook Podcast and Website: www.adultbrain.ca Check out our next trip/conference/meetup - Contact at the Cabin www.contactatthecabin.com Join the chat / hangout with a bunch of fellow Grimericans Https://t.me.grimerica grimerica.ca/chats   Discord Chats Darren's books www.acanadianshame.ca Sign up for our newsletter http://www.grimerica.ca/news InstaGRAM https://www.instagram.com/the_grimerica_show_podcast/ Purchase swag, with partial proceeds donated to the show www.grimerica.ca/swag ART - Napolean Duheme's site http://www.lostbreadcomic.com/ MUSIC Tru Northperception, Felix's Site sirfelix.bandcamp.com   Links to the stuff we chatted about: https://x.com/greg_scott84/status/2096652248839553220?s=20 https://x.com/Juliedonuts/status/2096765402839724514?s=20 https://x.com/the_irascible/status/2096697344620425495?s=20 https://x.com/BCCuda/status/2096479911552925857?s=20 https://x.com/AngelaUnspoken/status/2096025833651806540?s=20 https://x.com/AntonioTweets2/status/2095698043764933042?s=20 https://x.com/davidjsorensen/status/2095854412459876400?s=20 https://x.com/davidjsorensen/status/2095328133729988757?s=20 https://x.com/MJTruthUltra/status/2095232409046241581?s=20 https://x.com/JasonLavigneAB/status/2094787907592884474?s=20 https://x.com/drawandstrike/status/2094470647699153248?s=20 https://x.com/BrightInsight6/status/2094483314669396441?s=20 https://x.com/davidjsorensen/status/2094411350282051821?s=20 https://x.com/JMGreerWriter/status/2093986834095264232?s=20 https://x.com/kitsune_in_va/status/2093725902920184294?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/kitsune_in_va/status/2093725902920184294?s=43%3C/a https://x.com/thedefiantghost/status/2096365255836271103?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/thedefiantghost/status/2096365255836271103?s=43%3C/a https://x.com/thedarkhorsepod/status/2093477477712531910?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/thedarkhorsepod/status/2093477477712531910?s=43%3C/a https://x.com/tablesalt13/status/2094444372863410413?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/tablesalt13/status/2094444372863410413?s=43%3C/a https://x.com/michaelbuttonx/status/2093398960568500692?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/michaelbuttonx/status/2093398960568500692?s=43%3C/a https://x.com/timothyalberino/status/2093385147513180232?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/timothyalberino/status/2093385147513180232?s=43%3C/a https://www.booksbehindborders.org/p/1200-human-heads-and-fetuses-found-in-detroit https://x.com/realaxeivasa1/status/2093868069550436534?s=43%22%3Ehttps://x.com/realaxeivasa1/status/2093868069550436534?s=43%3C/a     Timestamps 00:00— The roundup returns 01:20— AI tools and summarizing long answers 03:13— Grok, mainstream sources, and AI bias 05:22— Earth's rotation and changes in the length of day 10:30— What is a Lamasu? 11:35— The destruction of ancient Lamasu statues 14:47— Prometheus at Starbase 16:49— Prometheus, technology, and the Statue of Liberty 22:11— JD Vance, Tim Dillon, and political context 27:04— Flock cameras and surveillance 31:24— Chemtrails and weather modification claims 37:46— Mark Carney and Canadian political networks 46:52— BC politics and floor crossing 49:08— The RCMP and online speech 51:30— Europe's "lazy savings" 56:13— Ancient surgery and early settlement in Australia 59:51— Giants, mounds, and suppressed history 63:06— Body brokers and human remains 69:32— Iran, Israel, Trump, and Q theories 79:01— Government posts and alleged coded signals 82:01— Vaccine contamination claims 86:28— Offshore finance and the British Virgin Islands 88:28— Central banking and sovereign alliances 90:15— Closing thoughts and episode promotion  

In this special video episode of Plan Sea, host Wil Burns and guest host Priyanka Hooghan, Senior Manager of Policy at Carbon to Sea, sit down with Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) on Capitol Hill to discuss growing federal support for marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) research. As co-chair of the Bipartisan Oceans Caucus, Congresswoman Bonamici discusses her sponsorship of the ReSCUE Oceans Act, bipartisan legislation that would establish a federal framework for responsible mCDR research, including ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE). Congresswoman Bonamici also shares how her long-standing work on ocean acidification has informed her approach to ocean policy, why ocean health draws support well beyond coastal districts, and how the field can advance responsibly.Congresswoman Bonamici represents much of Oregon's North Coast, and has spent her career addressing the environmental and economic impacts of ocean acidification. When her constituents struggled to raise oysters, she worked with researchers at Oregon State University and local shellfish growers to better understand how ocean acidification was affecting the region's shellfish and coastal economies. She shares with Wil and Priyanka how that work contributed to her broader efforts to strengthen federal ocean-climate research, including sponsoring the ReSCUE Oceans Act. The ReSCUE Oceans Act proposes bringing together federal science agencies — including NOAA, NASA, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the National Science Foundation — to support mCDR research and develop responsible guidelines for the field. In discussing the legislation, Rep. Bonamici addresses rising threats to federal science agencies and ocean observation programs, underscoring the importance of maintaining scientific expertise at government agencies like NOAA. She also stresses the importance of involving scientists, fishing communities, Indigenous tribes, and other rightsholders in both policymaking and implementation around potential ocean-climate solutions.“We want to have all the voices around the table,” said Congresswoman Bonamici. “Whenever you're making policy about the ocean, you need to make sure that people who fish for a living, people who are Indigenous, our tribes, are involved. So we want to have a broad conversation and really work with the scientific experts on getting that framework so we have responsible guidelines for marine carbon dioxide removal. And we're doing it in a responsible way.”Congresswoman Bonamici also discusses the bipartisan support for the bill, with Congressman Buddy Carter (R-GA) co-leading the House effort and Senators Brian Schatz (D-HI) and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) advancing companion legislation in the Senate. She explains how healthy oceans support seafood, tourism, jobs, and the broader health of the planet, giving coastal and inland communities alike a stake in ocean science. Drawing on her experience leading the Bipartisan Oceans Caucus, she explains how connecting ocean policy to people's livelihoods and everyday concerns has helped build coalitions around issues ranging from ocean acidification to marine debris.“[mCDR] is an area with a tremendous amount of potential. And when I learned that the ocean can absorb so much carbon and really store it, I thought this is a solution we need to learn more about and we need to do something about this,” said Congresswoman Bonamici. Looking ahead,Congresswoman Bonamici calls for continued investment in mCDR research, workforce development, public education, and community engagement. Advancing mCDR responsibly, she explains, will require strong science, meaningful stakeholder engagement, and clear explanations of both its potential and outstanding scientific questions.Plan Sea is a semi-weekly podcast exploring ocean-based climate solutions, brought to you by the Carbon to Sea Initiative and the American University Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal.ACRONYMS/CONCEPTS:RESCUE Oceans Act: Removing and Sequestering Carbon Unleashed in the Environment and Oceans ActCOAST Research Act: Coastal and Ocean Acidification Stressors and Threats Research ActmCDR: marine carbon dioxide removalOAE: ocean alkalinity enhancementNOAA: National Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationNASA: National Aeronautics and Space AdministrationNIST: National Institute of Standards and TechnologyOOI: Ocean Observatories InitiativeIRA: Inflation Reduction ActPlan Sea is a semi-weekly podcast exploring ocean-based climate solutions, brought to you by the Carbon to Sea Initiative & the American University Institute for Responsible Carbon Removal.

For BUD/S, SWCC, and Marine Reconnaissance students in Coronado, water quality issues are a constant concern and a major occupational hazard. Dr. Feddersen is one of the leading experts on what's in Coronado's water, how it gets there, and what it does. Falk Feddersen received his Ph.D. from Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) in 1999, followed by a position as a postdoctoral scholar for two years at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.  Dr. Feddersen studies various aspects of coastal and nearshore physical oceanography that span waves, currents, turbulence, and biological processes. His research includes instrument development, observations, theory, and modeling. His extensive field work experience includes projects in La Jolla, Huntington Beach, Point. Sal, the Monterey Peninsula, Surf Ranch, Imperial Beach in California, Duck and New River Inlet in North Carolina, and the Virgin Islands.  These projects have resulted in new insights into how nearshore processes unfold, including rip currents, internal waves, and wind effects on wave overturning.  Many of these findings are vital for understanding how pollution moves in the coastal ocean. His work has been supported by NSF, ONR, NOAA, other agencies, and private foundations.Dr. Feddersen has developed disciplinary and interdisciplinary coastal oceanography courses at SIO at the graduate and undergraduate levels.------------------------This is the first part of a two-part series on the water contamination in Coronado. In this episode, we're talking about how the contamination gets into the water, what's in it, and how scientists model how it spreads and how severe it is on a given day, sort of like a weather forecast. In a few days, we'll release part two, focused on the medical impacts of the contaminated water. In other words, we'll be discussing what happens to your body when you have to splash around in Tijuana poop water. If you're in Coronado and want to see how much sewage is in the water today, you can find Dr. Feddersen's pathogen forecast model for Coronado and Imperial Beach at https://pfmweb.ucsd.edu/Timestamps:00:00:22 Introduction to Dr. Falk Fedderson00:02:19  How much Sewage is in the Water in Coronado? 00:05:19 Viral Gastroenteritis and Norovirus00:08:18 The Movement of Sewage in Our Oceans00:12:02 Treatment of Sewage: Worse Over the Past Two Decades00:17:33 Do New DNA Tests Overstate the Risk?00:18:44 Are There Airborne Risks?00:21:05 Improvement on the Horizon for Tijuana  00:24:41 Sewage Outflow Modeling 00:26:24 Online Modeling and Beach Advisories00:28:40 How is the Sampling Actually Done?00:30:28 OutroSend us a message

Jonathan Cohler presents a newly submitted paper using mass conservation, isotopic signatures (delta 13C), and multiple datasets to apply the Keeling relation and infer a consistent intercept near -13.2‰ across sites and time spans. He argues this makes fossil fuels (signature ~-28‰) at most 26% of net atmospheric CO2 change and, using preindustrial constraints, essentially ~0–1.3%, contradicting claims by IPCC, NASA, NOAA, EPA, and the CO2 Coalition. He says CO2 residence time is ~3.8 years and attributes rising CO2 to natural temperature-driven ocean/soil outgassing. He criticizes the CO2 Coalition for conflating accounting identities with causation, describes harassment, and says he resigned.00:00 New Paper Claim01:29 Three Inputs Setup03:25 Isotope Signatures 10106:05 Keeling Relation Explained10:17 Datasets And Intercepts13:38 Solving For Fossil Fraction22:22 Why Fossil Dominance Fails25:16 Rejecting The Conclusion28:04 Carbon Cycle Turnover31:45 What Drives CO2 Rise33:56 Ancient CO2 And Whataboutism36:53 CO2 Coalition Errors Teaser37:38 Accounting vs Causation39:23 Feynman on Conservation40:37 What Proves Causality41:37 Atmospheric Balance Equation42:53 Coalition Paper Misreads46:25 Molecules Not Labeled48:08 Residuals Aren't Attribution49:56 Isotopes Discriminate Sources51:27 Airborne Fraction Fallacy53:41 Retention and Cycle Time56:02 Harassment and Resignation01:03:18 CO2 Forcing and Policy Costs01:08:51 X Feedback and Contact01:13:38 Wrap Up and Linkshttps://x.com/cohlerhttps://papers.jcohler.com/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

NOAA's latest recreational fishing numbers leave out billions, raising serious questions about fisheries management and allocation. Recreational fishing is one of the most economically significant parts of America's outdoors economy, but a major change in federal data collection could be understating its value. Chris Horton and economist Brad Gardner of the Coastal Conservation Association break down what happened and why anglers should pay attention. Gardner, who previously worked at NOAA and helped build the economic models behind its fisheries reports, explains how the agency stopped producing state-level estimates for durable goods such as boats, fishing rods, trucks, and other equipment. Those purchases account for roughly two-thirds of the economic impact associated with recreational fishing. Without them, recent comparisons between recreational and commercial fishing present an incomplete picture. The stakes are particularly high in the Gulf of Mexico, where a new red snapper stock assessment is expected to trigger another fight over allocation between commercial and recreational anglers, followed by decisions involving federal charter, private anglers, and individual states. Economic data can play an important role in those decisions, making accurate numbers critical. Horton and Gardner discuss where the missing information could come from, including U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service participation estimates, state fishing license data, and a potential independent review of NOAA's recreational fisheries economics program.

This year, most of the coral on the planet went through heat stress severe enough to bleach it. That's not a rounding error: 84 percent of the world's reef area, across the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans, and NOAA had to add three brand-new alert levels to its Coral Reef Watch scale because the existing one had no category for what was happening. In this episode, Andrew breaks down exactly where global coral reefs stand right now: how the fourth global mass bleaching event on record got declared, why NOAA waited until 2026 to confirm it had actually ended, and why every global bleaching event on record has been worse than the one before it. From there, Andrew tackles the harder question: if the IPCC's own projections show most reefs disappearing even in a best-case warming scenario, is coral restoration just decoration on a dying patient? He walks through the honest case for restoring reefs anyway, then surveys the full toolkit practitioners actually use beyond planting fragments, including larval propagation ("coral IVF"), selective breeding for heat tolerance, cryopreservation and biobanking, coral probiotics, and engineered substrates like biorock and 3D-printed reef tiles. He digs into the peer-reviewed evidence for whether any of it works (short answer: yes, locally, and not yet at global scale), and closes with a fast history of how restoration itself evolved, from 1970s hand-transplanting to a 2012 lab accident that unlocked 25-to-40-times faster coral growth. This is episode one of a four-part week built around Andrew's interview with Mike Goldberg, co-founder of ICARE, a coral restoration group in the Florida Keys. The rest of the week digs into specific pieces of Mike's own story before his full interview airs Friday. Takeaways: Coral reefs just came through the most severe global bleaching event ever recorded: 84 percent of the world's reef area affected between 2023 and 2025, and NOAA only confirms an event over after months of monitoring show it's genuinely done, not just cooling off temporarily. Even the IPCC's best-case warming scenario still projects most reefs lost, which is the strongest argument for restoring reefs now, not a reason to skip it. Fragment-based coral gardening is just one tool. The field also includes selective breeding for heat tolerance, cryopreservation and biobanking, probiotics, engineered substrates like biorock and 3D-printed tiles, and protecting the herbivorous fish and water quality reefs depend on. It's genuinely working at the local scale: peer-reviewed studies show restored reefs regaining their coastal-protection function within four years and fish populations rebounding two to three times over fifteen years. It is not, on current evidence, a global-scale fix on its own. Restoration investment so far covers a tiny fraction of what's been lost, which is exactly why a "one coral cluster at a time" mindset matters. The practice itself has moved fast: hand-transplanting coral in the 1970s, a lab accident in 2012 that unlocked dramatically faster growth, and today's diversified, partnership-driven restoration models.

On this, our 340th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the recent flash flood on the border of Nepal and Tibet, climate science, and the nature of evidence. What commonalities are there between a glacial dam breaking and flooding the valley below, taking out towns and villages; Dry Falls and the Columbia River Gorge in Washington state; the Boxing Day tsunami in the Indian Ocean; and the 2011 earthquake that resulted in the destruction of the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan? In some cases we have to infer what happened; in some cases we have direct observation; in all cases we have to construct a plausible story that fits all of the evidence. Meanwhile in climate science, a new paper reconstructs NOAA data from 1,200 weather stations from over 100 years, uses a different metric than NOAA does to describe the data, and concludes that the world—or at least the coterminous U.S.—is not heating up in the way we have been told.

Hour 1 (8.21) The City Council voted 10-3 to lift camping bans at a dozen sites in Echo Park, Silver Lake and Hollywood. Conway went to City Hall and then to the encampments to find out what actually changed. 6:05 PM — Extreme heat warning through Saturday, with the Valley running near 109. We say goodbye to one of our best I.T. guys, Dave Shuttera. Then the camping ban: Councilman Hugo Soto-Martínez got 12 anti-camping zones in his district rescinded — the first time the city has ever pulled a 41.18 designation back. Conway went looking for the real reason, and it isn't the one on the council floor. 6:20 PM — Somebody backed a car up to Paramount City Hall at 2:15 in the morning and walked off with the kneeling soldier and the bronze rifle from the Armed Forces Memorial. LASD Major Crimes puts the pair at about $100,000. The same memorial got sawed up in May of last year. Los Angeles is now the wire-and-metal theft capital of the country, and this is what that looks like when it comes to a war memorial. 6:35 PM — We love our listeners, but some of them listen too closely. A green object landed on the floor at Crypto.com Arena during the third quarter of Atlanta's 124-88 win over the Sparks. Angel Reese spotted the guy from the bench, pointed him out, and security had him before he got to the exit. He was wearing a Lakers jersey. 6:50 PM — NOAA's Climate Prediction Center now puts a very strong El Niño above 90% for this fall and winter and gives October through December a 69% chance of an event bigger than anything on the books since 1950. Daniel Swain and the European model have California at 70-100% odds of a top 20% wettest winter. Get the sandbags now, not in December. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on KSL Brightside, we're breaking down NOAA's brand-new fall forecast for all 50 states. A "super" El Niño is building fast — forecasters now say there's a greater than 90% chance it'll be very strong — and we'll talk about what that means for Utah's fall and winter ahead. Plus, there's a heat advisory in effect today, so stay cool out there. Oh, and did you catch that landspout photo? Then — Lay's just dropped a new Barbecue Brisket chip flavor right in time for football season. We're taste-testing first world problems and asking: What's your go-to football-watching snack? In drone delivery news, Amazon just announced it's expanding Prime Air to nearly 500 U.S. cities(not in Utah), but Salt Lake City is next up for Walmart drone delivery — and one Texas woman's Amazon drone decided her swimming pool was the perfect landing zone.  And we're ending on a feel-good note: Brewers prospect Sawyer Strosnider crushed his first pro home run… and his dad caught the ball in the stands.    KSL Brightside streams live weekdays 12–3 PM.

Deep sea mining is no longer theoretical. In this episode, Andrew sits down with Matthew Gianni, co-founder and Political and Policy Advisor of the Deep Sea Conservation Coalition, for an in-depth look at what's actually happening on the seafloor and in the negotiating rooms deciding its fate. Matthew spent years as a commercial fisherman, including five years as a deep sea trawlerman off the Central California coast, before moving into ocean conservation with Greenpeace International and eventually co-founding the DSCC to fight destructive bottom trawling on seamounts. That history shapes everything he has to say about what's coming next. The conversation covers the science and the politics in equal measure: what seamount trawling studies off Tasmania revealed about how quickly deep coral ecosystems can be destroyed, why the deep sea is far from the "biological desert" some mining proponents describe, and the 2024 discovery of "dark oxygen" being produced by the very polymetallic nodules that mining companies want to extract. Matthew also walks through the current state of play at the International Seabed Authority, including a fresh update from the July 2026 meetings in Kingston, Jamaica, the leadership change from Michael Lodge to Leticia Carvalho, the legal fight over The Metals Company's push for a US mining license outside ISA authority, and why the economics of nodule mining may not add up even on the industry's own numbers. Whether deep sea mining moves forward is still being decided right now, and Matthew makes the case for why the decisions being made in 2026 will shape the deep ocean for generations. This is a dense, detailed update for anyone trying to understand where deep sea mining policy actually stands, straight from someone who has been in the room for over a decade. Takeaways: Matthew Gianni co-founded the Deep Sea Conservation Coalition after years as a commercial fisherman and deep sea trawlerman, then a career at Greenpeace International running its ocean program. Seamount trawling studies off Tasmania showed how fast deep coral ecosystems can be wiped out once bottom trawling begins. The 2024 discovery of "dark oxygen" production from polymetallic nodules raises new questions about what deep seabed mining could disrupt before science even understands it. The International Seabed Authority is legally obligated to act "for the benefit of humankind as a whole," which is central to the current fight over mining regulations. The Metals Company is pursuing a US mining license through NOAA to bypass ISA authority entirely, a move Matthew calls "unilateral mining" that risks undermining the Law of the Sea Convention. The economics of nodule mining are being challenged even within the ISA's own analysis, with mined metals representing a small fraction of global terrestrial supply. A leadership change at the ISA, from Michael Lodge to Leticia Carvalho, has shifted the tone of negotiations, though Matthew says the fundamental disagreements remain unresolved.

Why would someone who watched one deep-sea mining company collapse go back and try it again? That's the question at the center of this episode, and it's not hypothetical. It happened, with the same industry, some of the same licenses, and the same person at the center of it: Gerard Barron, now CEO of The Metals Company (TMC), one of the most prominent and best-funded companies pushing to start commercial deep-sea mining today. This isn't framed as an accusation against Barron specifically. It's a documented sequence of decisions, and by the end, you can decide for yourself what the motive looks like. Before TMC, Barron was an early investor and promoter behind Nautilus Minerals, a company that pursued seafloor mineral deposits off Papua New Guinea. Nautilus raised hundreds of millions of dollars, including investment from the PNG government itself, before its costs spiraled, it was delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange, and it filed for bankruptcy in 2019. Barron reportedly sold his shares years before the collapse, walking away with a return as high as $30 million, while PNG's government and environment were left holding the damage. Years later, people connected to Nautilus, including Barron, regrouped as Deep Green, which became The Metals Company, and picked up exploration rights in the Clarion Clipperton Zone that had once belonged to Nautilus. This episode traces that arc from Adstream to Nautilus to TMC, including TMC's push to trigger the ISA's two-year rule, its more recent pursuit of a US mining permit outside the International Seabed Authority process entirely, and Barron's consistent argument that mining the seabed is less environmentally damaging than mining on land. Whether that comparison holds up, and what it means that the environmental cost of Nautilus's failure barely factors into how Barron talks about it now, is the thread running through the whole story. Takeaways Gerard Barron, now CEO of The Metals Company (TMC), was an early investor and promoter (not CEO) behind an earlier deep-sea mining venture, Nautilus Minerals, which went bankrupt in 2019. Nautilus's projected operating costs of about $70 per ton reportedly grew to about $192 per ton, contributing to its delisting from the Toronto Stock Exchange and eventual bankruptcy. Papua New Guinea's government invested in Nautilus and, according to the country's prime minister, the country spent roughly 300 million Kina (about $72 million USD) on a project later called a "total failure." Barron sold his Nautilus shares years before the company's collapse, reportedly for as much as $30 million, while PNG's government was still invested. TMC, which Barron now leads, is pursuing a US permitting path through NOAA and the Trump administration, outside the ISA process. Long-term recovery data on deep-sea mining damage remains limited; some studies cited in the episode indicate no biodiversity recovery three to four years after mining activity occurred. Barron has publicly compared seabed mining favorably to land-based mining, but a specific biomass figure he's cited in at least one interview is disputed in this episode as inaccurate.

Shark depredation is when a shark eats a hooked or landed fish before an angler can bring it in, and in Florida it has become one of the most contested issues on the water. In this episode I sit down with Dr. John Carlson, a research fish biologist with NOAA Fisheries who has spent 25 years studying shark and sawfish populations, to work through the question anglers keep asking me: how can there be too many sharks and a global shark decline at the same time?

Today's Headlines: Trump signed an executive order overriding the CDC's vaccine schedule authority, requiring the MMR vaccine to be broken into three separate shots at separate visits — while claiming he broke up his own kids' vaccines into five stops because he's "seen proof" that vaccines cause autism, which he described as a soda bottle poured into a child's body. Trump also admitted there was "some contractor error" with the reflecting pool while continuing to accuse a former Olympian of vandalism even though charges were dropped, and appointed a Project 2025 co-author as inspector general of the department that will review the reflecting pool renovation. On the tech beat, Meta and TikTok lost their attempt to dismiss thousands of lawsuits claiming their platforms are deliberately addictive and harmful to teenagers. Mark Zuckerberg responded to the cultural moment by releasing a 6,500-word AI manifesto arguing everyone's concerns are overblown and America needs to beat China anyway. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders sent a strongly worded letter urging OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta to pause AI development, citing all three companies reporting their own models going rogue in recent weeks and a petition signed by over 1,200 AI employees calling for an international safety framework. In scary weather news, July 2026 was the hottest month ever recorded in the United States going back to 1895, with NOAA forecasting more of the same through August. Finally, a 7.4 magnitude earthquake — the strongest recorded in the 21st century — hit Colombia and Ecuador, killing at least 111 people with many still missing.
