On today's show, we're chatting with Sue Poole, the founder of At Source Vintage. Sue's love for fashion started young – she remembers many bold fashion moments from her teens – wearing a turquoise pencil skirt with rainbow leggings, buying her first designer piece, shopping the charity shops in London. In 2020, Sue made a decision that changed everything: she stopped buying new clothes completely. What started as participating in Oxfam's Secondhand September challenge – where she committed to only wearing the secondhand pieces already in her wardrobe – turned into a permanent lifestyle shift. Four years later, she hasn't bought a single new item. This commitment didn't just change how Sue shops – it revolutionized her entire relationship with fashion. She went from following trends and scrolling through brand algorithms to becoming a vintage expert who tracks down 1970s YSL toweling caftans, collects Celine blouses, and once scored an '80s Hermès velour lounge suit on eBay for £18. In 2022, she launched her own curated vintage business, At Source Vintage, and since Sue's been featured in British Vogue, she showcases at London vintage fairs, and her Instagram is a masterclass in styling vintage pieces in ways that make them feel completely contemporary. We talk about the styling challenge that started it all for her, and how secondhand shopping is actually about right-sizing our relationship with clothing – finding your style through vintage, breaking free from consumption cycles, and proving that you don't need to buy new clothes to dress incredibly well. It's a fun one, so let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [3:27] Sue's always been a fashion-lover, and shares her early style memories.

Earlier this year, an Oxfam report revealed that once again, billionaire wealth increased in 2025 — three times faster than the previous five-year average. In January, Oxfam also proclaimed ‘Pollutocrat Day' on the 10th of January, on which the richest 1% have already exhausted their annual carbon budget. Professor of Business & Society at the University of Technology in Sydney Carl Rhodes has delved into the ‘myth of the heroic billionaire' and the problems generated for political processes and global inequality. Wire Host Sara spoke to Rhodes about the influence of billionaires, in particular with regard to climate action, starting by asking what the myth of the heroic billionaire is, and how it is perpetuated.

Aujourd'hui dans le podcast, on analyse le premier sondage Pallas Data sur les intentions de vote dans la circonscription de Chicoutimi, en vue de l'élection partielle qui aura lieu le 23 février prochain. Le Parti québécois semble y être en forte avance, suivi du Parti conservateur du Québec. Un scénario « Arthabaska 2.0 » semble ainsi se dessiner. On aborde également la décision du gouvernement français d'emboîter le pas comme l'Australie en interdisant les réseaux sociaux aux moins de 15 ans. Six mois après la mise en place d'un processus de vérification de l'âge sur les sites pornographiques au Royaume-Uni, Pornhub a annoncé son retrait du pays.DANS LA PARTIE PATREON, on commence avec Ian qui lit un article du Wall Street Journal portant sur les données de 2023 et de 2024 concernant le nombre de décès par surdoses aux États-Unis, principalement liés au fentanyl. Il semble y avoir eu une baisse substantielle en moins d'un an. On termine avec Joey, qui nous parle des ultra-riches à partir d'un rapport déposé par Oxfam mettant en garde la population contre l'influence de grandes fortunes comme Elon Musk et Peter Thiel. On écoute également, sur le même sujet, un échange de Marie-Ève Tremblay au 98,5 FM ainsi qu'une intervention du comédien et podcasteur britannique Konstantin Kisin au sujet de vouloir taxer davantage les ultra-riches.TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro2:42 Changer le règlement sur les élections partielles12:22 Sondage sur la partielle dans Chicoutimi18:08 Les autres candidats23:44 Réseaux sociaux en France et Pornhub33:50 À venir dans le Patreon
In our second episode of the season, executive director of Oxfam Canada, Lauren Ravon returns for our annual focus on the Oxfam Inequality Report and this year we are also joined by senior director of Strategy and Innovation at Family Service Toronto and national director of Campaign 2000, Leila Sarangi. We discuss Oxfam's latest report on global inequality, Resisting the Rule of the Rich: Protecting Freedom from Billionaire Power, the capture of political power by the billionaire class, the rise of authoritarianism and how this is being lived in Canada. Ravon says: "One of the main points that we're trying to get across in this year's Oxfam report. Is saying that not only does massive wealth allow you to buy luxury items … It allows you to buy political influence, and this is really what we see as most troubling … this political capture … around the world and it's a risk for us here in Canada too, is that ultimately extreme wealth concentration, this kind of billionaire wealth that we're talking about, is incompatible with the very idea of democracy. That you cannot have a healthy democracy when so much is held in the hands of so few … And it's not a new trend, but we're seeing it accelerating. And what's really concerning is that this is eroding civil and political rights … is actually a really fertile ground for authoritarianism." Reflection on increasing poverty in Canada, Sarangi says: "Our data has shown and our report cards the last two years, the largest historic increases in poverty since the pandemic. So it's striking. While billionaire wealth is growing, poverty rates are rising, and incomes are plummeting, and depth of poverty is increasing … We have in Canada, two and a half million children living in food insecure households. ..in the provinces alone, we're not asking about the Territories. We're not collecting that data … Parents are skipping meals so the kids don't have to. They're foregoing buying medication or they're cutting their pills in half to save money. They're making strategic decisions every day, every week." Oxfam's Global Inequality Report: Resisting the Rule of the Rich: Protecting Freedom from Billionaire Power Oxfam Canada's Report: The Rise of the Super-Rich: The State of Inequality in Canada About today's guests: Lauren Ravon is a feminist and social justice advocate with over 20 years of experience in human rights and international development.

Zdravo. Tokrat začnemo s klubom 3000 milijarderjev, svetovnimi valutami in občutkom, da nas kuhajo počasi, kot žabo. Vmes obdelamo obcestne politične plakate, naredimo plan za napad na Ciper in nacionalizacijo njihovih bank, ker te stvari že znamo. Preden se vrnemo h gorilam iz 3. poglavja, Helmutu in Kurtu, mačetám in tipom gozda, slišimo tudi Pelijevo izpoved o ljubezni do Excela - orodja, ki ga je izpopolnil predvsem v oziru kalkulacij količin tvarin za dober žur. Nato pridemo do prve sledi goril (njihovo posteljo), skupaj z znanstveno razlago, kje in zakaj gorile puščajo, kar pač puščajo.
This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and NHK Japan. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr260123.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Starting with 3 press reviews about the WEF held in Davos Switzerland, clearly the biggest international news item. Trump's words, insults, and threats, followed by his slight retraction on Greenland, has clearly damaged the relationship between the US and Europe. Trump was ridiculed in much of the press, not unlike his ridicule of other world leaders. Press on the Israeli crackdown on the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, including bulldozing the UN buildings in occupied Palestine. Oxfam released its annual report on wealth and poverty on Monday, pointing out that billionaires are accelerating the inequality gap. From GERMANY- Trump presented his proposed Board of Peace in Davos. It was to be a way to fix the crisis in destroyed Gaza, but has become what many suggest is an attempt at replacing the United Nations. He invited dozens of countries to sit on the board, which he is the lifetime chairman of the board, and Europe is by and large repulsed by it. An interview with Heba Aly, journalist and director of the United Nations Reform Coalition. She has worked for years to redirect the UN into becoming more effective at achieving its goals. From CUBA- Venezuelans continue to denounce the US invasion and kidnapping of President Maduro and his wife. From JAPAN- At the beginning of the week the EU was considering putting over $100 million in tariffs on the US in response to tariffs Trump threatened on EU countries defending Greenland. A just restarted nuclear power plant in central Japan was shutdown due to a malfunction during start up. Nepal will have a general election in March, and young voters in Gen-Z intend to create candidates and change, focused on ending corruption.

En este análisis económico, exploramos el impacto de la creciente riqueza y poder de los multimillonarios a nivel global, destacando el informe de Oxfam presentado en el foro de Davos. Se discuten las implicaciones de la concentración de riqueza, el control de medios y la influencia política de los superricos. El informe revela que la riqueza de los multimillonarios ha alcanzado un récord de 18,3 billones de euros, mientras que casi la mitad de la población mundial vive en pobreza. Se examina cómo esta desigualdad afecta la democracia y el poder mediático, con ejemplos de adquisiciones de medios por figuras como Jeff Bezos y Elon Musk. En España, el número de multimillonarios y su influencia también han crecido significativamente, concentrando más riqueza que el 39% de la población.
Diese Woche mit Sandra Kirchner und Susanne Schwarz. 01:26 2025 außergewöhnlich warm 2025 war weltweit eines der wärmsten Jahre seit Beginn der Messungen. Nach Daten des EU-Klimadienstes Copernicus lag die Durchschnittstemperatur nur minimal unter den Werten für die Rekordjahre 2023 und 2024. Mit dem weiteren heißen Jahr rückt die 1,5-Grad-Grenze gefährlich nahe. 05:39 Schäden durch Naturkatastrophen Naturkatastrophen verursachten 2025 weltweit Schäden von 224 Milliarden US-Dollar. Das vergangene Jahr war geprägt von Schwankungen mit sehr verlustreichen Abschnitten und ruhigen Phasen. Dass die Bilanz nicht noch höher ausfiel, war laut dem Rückversicherer Munich Re vor allem Glück. Zugleich häuften sich regelmäßig auftretende Extremereignisse wie Waldbrände, Hurrikans und Überschwemmungen. 12:11 Superreiche mit extremem CO2‑Ausstoß Das reichste Prozent der Weltbevölkerung hat rechnerisch schon am 10. Januar sein Treibhausgas-Budget für das gesamte Jahr verbraucht. Das zeigen Berechnungen von Oxfam.

Mientras se espera la segunda fase del plan de paz en Gaza, impulsado por el mandatario estadounidense Donald Trump, la situación humanitaria en el enclave sigue siendo catastrófica, alertan las ONG´s. Hay escasez de comida, enfermedades y muertes ligadas a ataques y al invierno, además de la preocupación por la posible partida de 37 organizaciones humanitarias. En octubre pasado inició la tregua en Gaza, pero una verdadera paz aún se ve lejana y las necesidades de la población de alimentos, vivienda digna o atención médica no dan espera, confirman diferentes organizaciones como Médicos Sin Fronteras (MSF) y Oxfam. Esta semana Unicef informó que, desde el inicio de la tregua, al menos 100 niños han muerto en ataques aéreos y actos de violencia en la Franja y el New York Times publicó que también en este periodo Israel ha demolido más de 2.500 edificios en el enclave, complicando aún más el acceso a una vivienda digna para la población, pues muchos se encuentran bajo tiendas de campaña. Las muertes en Gaza continúan y a ello se suman los fallecimientos por hipotermia o enfermedades ligadas a un invierno bajo condiciones catastróficas, cuenta Claire Nicolet, Coordinadora de urgencias de Médicos Sin Fronteras en Gaza. “Todos los días, sigue habiendo muertos en Gaza, ya sea porque la gente se acerca a la zona controlada por el ejército israelí o por los ataques que siguen produciéndose en zonas que normalmente deberían ser seguras. Lamentablemente, siguen produciéndose ataques a ese nivel”, agregó Nicolet. El invierno y las malas condiciones de vivienda también han generado fallecimientos. “Hemos tenido casos de hipotermia entre los niños y también hemos tenido esos famosos edificios que se derrumban sobre la gente. Así que digamos que, aún hoy, seguimos viendo muertes relacionadas con toda esta situación que vemos en Gaza. Por desgracia, todos los días seguimos oyendo bombardeos, demoliciones de edificios y aún no hemos llegado a algo que se pueda llamar realmente paz”, señaló. El trabajo de las ONG's no es suficiente para cubrir las necesidades del enclave, cuenta la trabajadora humanitaria y esto podría agravarse con la decisión de Israel de prohibir el acceso a 37 ONG. El Estado hebreo argumenta que es una respuesta por no comunicar los nombres de sus empleados, pero las organizaciones temen por la seguridad de sus miembros. Por su parte, la comunidad internacional se muestra preocupada por una escalada de la crisis humanitaria que ya es catastrófica, pues explican que sería muy difícil crear rápidamente una alternativa que pueda cubrir el trabajo que ya se está haciendo y que es precario. “Hoy en día, como Médicos Sin Fronteras, contamos con más de 20 centros de salud a los que prestamos apoyo y 5 hospitales. En la actualidad, no hay nadie capaz de sustituirnos con un volumen de trabajo tan grande. Contamos con más de 1.000 empleados nacionales, por lo que el volumen de actividad es enorme. También somos el segundo distribuidor de agua en la Franja de Gaza. Si hoy tuviéramos que dejar de trabajar, no habría ninguna solución alternativa”, aseguró. Además de la presencia física, están las especialidades que aporta cada organización. “En el caso de MSF, somos especialistas en determinadas patologías o enfermedades, como por ejemplo las quemaduras. No habría ninguna solución alternativa, porque no habría ninguna organización que pueda venir de repente a sustituir el volumen de actividad que estamos realizando como Médicos Sin Fronteras”, agregó Nicolet. Varios países entre los que se encuentran los de la Unión Europea, que enviaron una declaración conjunta, insisten a Israel en dar marcha atrás en su decisión de sacar a estas 37 organizaciones, pero de momento la presión no parece dar resultados.
Series SixThis episode of 'The New Abnormal' podcast features Jost Wagner, Managing Director of The Change Initiative and Executive Director of the Asia-Pacific Futures Network, the largest network of futurists in the region. Over the last 20 years, he's designed and facilitated over 600 workshops and conferences worldwide for organisations such as the Asian Development Bank, United Nations, World Bank, USAID, GTZ (now GIZ), DFAT, five German political foundations, a number of international NGOs such as Oxfam, Plan, WWF, etc. In this interview, we discuss all of the above, along with his latest article for Compass magazine c/o the Association for Professional Futurists, where he writes about his belief in the urgent need for long-term thinking and action - to counter the futures-thieves that rob others (especially future generations or marginalised groups) of the opportunity to shape or benefit from desirable futures...
where we delve into the pressing issues that shape our world today. Imagine a society where opportunities are often dictated by wealth rather than merit—where a few hold most of the resources, while many struggle for their basic needs. This isn't just a hypothetical scenario; it's a reality far too familiar in our modern times. Today, we're exploring how systems built on unequal advantages can weaken our society, creating divides that threaten our cohesion and stability.Let's start with the numbers. It's alarming to realize that just a handful of billionaires possess wealth equivalent to what it would take to eliminate extreme poverty multiple times over. A 2013 report from Oxfam sparked conversations about this very issue, revealing how deeply entrenched economic inequality can be. When power and wealth funnel into the hands of a select few, we experience a ripple effect—widespread dissatisfaction, social unrest, and a growing distrust among communities. This relationship between wealth disparity and social cohesion is a serious concern.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/racism-white-privilege-in-america--4473713/support.
In this episode of Charity Village Connects, we examine the far-reaching consequences of the Trump administration's sudden dismantling of USAID, which has created a $63-billion void in global aid funding. With essential programs in health, education, food security, and disaster relief now at risk, what does this seismic shift mean for organizations already stretched thin? Canadian nonprofits are grappling with increased demand as they work to fill the gap left behind by disrupted partnerships.

Elon Musk could be about to become the world's first trillionaire. That's after a record-breaking pay package - that could be worth nearly $1tn (£760bn) - was approved by Tesla shareholders. The electric car boss is already the world's richest man, but this would take his wealth to a whole new level. But who is Elon Musk and how did he make all this money? We explain all, as well as breaking down what a trillion dollars actually is. Plus, we hear from two special guests about what they would do with a trillion dollars.But not everyone thinks trillionaires are a good thing. Billie Eilish has been vocal about this. She recently called for billionaires to give their money away. And then there's charities, like Oxfam, who point to rising global inequality. BBC reporter Nathalie Jimenez joins us to crunch the numbers, and explain all sides of the arguments for, and against, trillionaires.

In this episode, we sat down with Bushra Khalidi, Oxfam's Policy Lead in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. Bushra reflects on her dual identities as a Palestinian and a humanitarian, and how this has shaped her approach to her work. She speaks to the critical role that humanitarian actors have played in not just providing physical aid, but also in highlighting the truth of abuses they are witnessing. Bushra also discusses how the the dehumanization and dispossession of Palestinians in Israel and in global media and policy spaces has fueled longstanding impunity for Israel's violations of international law. In this regard, she emphasizes the need for breaking paternalistic patterns and for meaningfully including Palestinians in decisions on their future.
Interviews with pioneers in business and social impact - Business Fights Poverty Spotlight
This Social Impact Pioneers episode forms part of the Business Fights Poverty Climate Series 2025. Katie Hyson sits down with Matthew Spencer, Global Director of Landscapes at IDH – The Sustainable Trade Initiative, for a timely conversation recorded live from COP 2025 in Belém, Brazil. With climate risks intensifying and global supply chains under unprecedented pressure, Matthew explores why landscape-level collaboration is emerging as one of the most effective solutions for protecting the world's most vulnerable ecosystems — while strengthening livelihoods for millions of smallholder farmers. Matthew shares IDH's ambitious goal to protect and restore five million hectares of vulnerable landscapes by 2030, addressing deforestation, biodiversity loss, and climate impacts through integrated, jurisdictional approaches – working with communities, businesses and governments. Drawing on career of experience, he explains why landscape initiatives not only deliver environmental gains but also help companies share risk, reduce costs, build resilience, and secure long-term supply. Listeners will hear real-world success stories — from palm oil landscapes in Aceh, Indonesia, to sustainable beef production in Mato Grosso, Brazil — where public-private partnerships have cut deforestation and improved farmers' incomes. Matthew also highlights the rapidly growing landscape platform SourceUp, which now hosts over 65 initiatives (expected to reach 100 next year), helping businesses fast-track participation by identifying opportunities by commodity, country, or sustainability priority. Matthew's Social Impact Pioneer credentials include time with Greenpeace and Oxfam, he's helped secure the UK's phase-out of coal while at the think tank Green Alliance and he's a Turner Fellow at the Cambridge Conservation Initiative, researching what has worked in tropical forest protection over the last three decades. Listen in for Matthew's views on why climate action and poverty reduction must go hand-in-hand, and what truly drives lasting change in forest protection and sustainable land use. Packed with practical insights for business leaders, sustainability professionals, and anyone working at the intersection of climate and development, this episode offers rare optimism — and a clear roadmap for collective action. Tune in to learn how landscape collaboration can drive climate resilience, restore forests, and transform global value chains.

Oxfam: 10 US billionaires have had their wealth increase 6-fold since 2020 / New report by The Lancet: More than 3 million Palestinian life-years lost in Gaza genocide
La ONG de lucha contra la pobreza calcula que una persona del segmento más rico del planeta emite más Co2 en un solo día que una persona que forma parte del 50% de los más pobres en todo un año. Oxfam insta a los gobiernos a aplicar tasas a los multimillonarios para financiar la lucha contra el calentamiento global que alcanzará +1.5°C próximamente. “Los ricos causan el problema, los pobres pagan el precio más alto de la crisis climática”, alertaba el secretario de Naciones Unidas, Antonio Guterres, el año pasado en la cumbre climática de la ONU COP29. Un nuevo informe de la ONG de lucha contra la pobreza, Oxfam, confirma esta realidad con cifras. Desde 2015, por ejemplo, el 1% más rico de la población mundial consume la mayor parte de nuestro presupuesto de CO2, es decir, la cantidad de carbono que podemos emitir sin agravar la crisis climática. Los autores del nuevo informe de Oxfam, publicado a un poco más de una semana del inicio de la cumbre climática COP30 de Naciones Unidas, denuncian un “saqueo climático” de los más ricos, quienes a través de sus hábitos de consumo y sus inversiones, son responsables de la mayor parte de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, principal causa del calentamiento global. “Hablamos de saqueo porque, los multimillonarios están sacando ventajas y beneficios económicos, mientras que las poblaciones más vulnerables enfrentan los impactos más devastadores de esta crisis climática”, declaró Carlos Aguilar, encargado de Justicia Climática de Oxfam Latinoamérica. “Desde 1990, el 0,1% más rico ha aumentado la cuota de emisiones totales en un 32%, en comparación con la mitad más pobre de la humanidad, que ha reducido más bien su cuota en un 3%. La participación de los multimillonarios y de una élite está cada vez está teniendo un mayor impacto en la situación de la emergencia climática que estamos viviendo”, agregó Aguilar, entrevistado por RFI. La organización Oxfam apunta también a las carteras de inversiones de los más adinerados que dirigen sus fondos hacia las energías fósiles, principal fuente de emisiones de CO2. “Las emisiones de las carteras de inversión de los 308 supermillonarios superan las emisiones de 118 países juntos, principalmente de países del sur. Y estamos hablando que el 60% de las inversiones de estos supermillonarios están concentrados en sectores de alto impacto climático como la industria del petróleo, del gas o de los minerales”, detalla Carlos Aguilar. Los autores del informe formulan una serie de recomendaciones para reducir la brecha climática. Sugieren, por ejemplo aumentar la carga impositiva de los más ricos y de las grandes empresas. “Por ejemplo, un impuesto del 60% sobre los ingresos totales del 1% más rico del mundo podría reducir emisiones de carbono equivalentes a las emisiones totales de toda Inglaterra”, indica Carlos Aguilar. En el marco de las negociaciones internacionales para buscar nuevas fuentes de financiamiento contra la crisis climática ocho países, entre los cuales Francia, Kenia y España, proponen, por ejemplo, un impuesto especial sobre los viajes aéreos de lujo: una tasa global que permitiría recaudar 187.000 millones de dólares para los países pobres y vulnerables al cambio climático. Oxfam llama además a prohibir la presencia de las grandes corporaciones en los espacios de negociación climática.
