Send us a Text: Ask Us a Question!This episode of Waypoints is a bit ... different. Host Jim Klug sits down with former White House Chief of Staff, Congressman, Mayor of Chicago, and U.S. Ambassador to Japan - Rahm Emanuel - for an out-of-the-ordinary, candid conversation that blends politics, perspective, and pure flyfishing obsession. While Rahm has been featured on countless political shows, this discussion steps away from pure campaign strategy and policy spin to explore how one of America's most recognized political figures finds happiness and focus through flyfishing. From chasing peacock bass in the jungles of the Amazon to stalking trout in Montana, Rahm's passion for the sport runs deep.Known for his intensity and drive in the political arena, Emanuel opens up about how time on the water provides clarity, humility, and balance - and why conservation, access, and public lands should matter to every angler. The conversation ranges from global travel and favorite fisheries to flyfishing's potential role in connecting people across political lines. It also touches on the current political climate in D.C. and the future of conservation and outdoor recreation policy. It's an unexpected and refreshing look at a figure who may soon make headlines for much more than his casting stroke - and who just might be the one to bring flyfishing back to the White House in 2028!Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

(00:00) Defensie handelde nalatig en verwijtbaar bij mortierongeluk Mali  Defensiemedewerkers handelden in de aanloop naar het dodelijke ongeluk met een mortiergranaat in Mali in 2016 elf keer nalatig en drie keer verwijtbaar. Ook heeft de top van het ministerie toegelaten dat de commissie die dit in 2018 al had moeten onderzoeken, afweek van haar opdracht - zonder hiervoor toestemming van de minister te vragen. Deze harde conclusies van de commissie Den Oudsten stelt minister Brekelmans voor de vraag: en nu? Wat gaat Defensie doen met de verantwoordelijken?    (34:35) Veel meer PFAS in pesticiden  PFAS-houdende pesticiden zijn in Nederland in vier jaar tijd meer dan verdubbeld. De groei kan doorzetten als een algeheel verbod op PFAS, zoals nu voorligt in Brussel, pesticiden blijft uitzonderen. De PFAS bereiken ook ons grond- en drinkwater. Als er niets verandert, vrezen drinkwaterbedrijven voor ‘onherstelbare verontreinigingen'.     (38:38) Hoe lang mag de overheid maximaal offline zijn na een hack?  Deze zomer lagen de systemen van het Openbaar Ministerie plat door een hack.

Una recente inchiesta giornalistica di Gianluca Liva, Anna Violato, Marta Frigerio e Filippo Tommasoli ha mostrato come l'azienda al centro del caso giudiziario sulla diffusione dei PFAS nell'ambiente in Veneto si sia in un certo senso spostata in India, trasferendo metodi e pratiche produttive seguite in Italia. Dopo il suo fallimento nel 2018, attrezzature e brevetti sono stati messi all'asta e acquistati nel 2019 da una sussidiaria della multinazionale indiana della chimica Laxmi Organic Industries. Buona parte degli impianti di Trissino sono stati smantellati e riassemblati in India, dove non sempre ci sono controlli adeguati sull'impatto ambientale delle attività industriali. Ci occupiamo poi dei veleni dei serpenti e di come i lama e gli alpaca possono darci una mano per contrastarli. Infine affrontiamo la differenza tra aromi e sapori ed esploriamo vecchie munizioni piene di stelle marine. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Il link per abbonarti al Post e ascoltare la puntata per intero.

Belastende Substanzen im Wasser und im Boden - auch hier bei uns in Bayern! Laut einer Analyse des BUND wurden sogenannte Ewigkeitschemikalien, besser bekannt als PFAS, im Trinkwasser in Holzkirchen, Passau, Salzweg und Olching nachgewiesen. In Neuötting-Alzgern im Landkreis Altötting fanden die Experten eine Chemikalie im Grundwasser, die im Verdacht steht, krebserregend zu sein. Auch im Boden wurden sie entdeckt. Außerdem schickt der BUND gleich eine Warnung hinterher: Die neuen Grenzwerte für PFAS, die ab 2026 und 2028 gelten, würden die Wasserbetriebe vor erhebliche Herausforderungen stellen, was die Reinigungsverfahren angeht. Wir schauen in den Landkreis Altötting: Was bedeutet das für die Menschen und für die Umwelt dort? Was kann man gegen eine PFAS-Belastung tun? Darüber sprechen wir unter anderem mit Umweltwissenschaftler Martin Scheringer. Moderation: Sabine Strasser

A la une de la presse ce vendredi : une pollution invisible, un sommet sans espoir et un scandale en altitude.

Season 2 Forever Chemicals Detox 101 series, Part 5 When "forever chemicals" hit home, change begins. Minnesota State Senator Judy Seeberger joined the legislature in 2023—and helped pass the nation's strongest ban on PFAS, or "forever chemicals," found in everything from cookware to dental floss. For Senator Seeberger, this issue is deeply personal: her own home's well water is contaminated with PFAS and she's experienced firsthand how PFAS can harm people in her community. In this inspiring conversation, we talk about how she turned that personal pain into purpose—protecting families across Minnesota and setting a model for other states to follow. You'll learn: How Minnesota became a leader in banning toxic chemicals How Senator Seeberger filters PFAS from her home's well water PFAS regulation that's possible where you live This episode is a reminder that real change begins at home—and that hope can be as practical as clean water.

Activated carbon is a frontline solution in the fight against PFAS and other contaminants in water. In this episode, Brandon Hamilton of Norit explains how activated carbon works like a “rigid sponge” —using its complex pore structures to trap everything from volatile organics to microscopic chemicals. He breaks down why utilities are increasingly choosing activated carbon over reverse osmosis or ion exchange, highlighting its cost-effectiveness, sustainability, and proven performance in water treatment. Hamilton also dives into Norit's reactivation process, which destroys PFAS and restores 80–90% of carbon capacity, saving utilities in costs. The conversation explores the different types of carbon—from coal to coconut shell—and how each targets specific contaminants. Looking ahead, Hamilton reveals how tailored carbon products and innovations in agglomeration are paving the way for the next generation of water treatment solutions.Learn more about Norit.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for sustainability in water.

This episode of the Georgia Tech Research podcast discusses PFAs, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, with Dr. Christopher Heist and Jordan Ash. PFAs, known as "forever chemicals," are synthetic compounds with strong carbon-fluorine bonds, making them highly persistent in the environment. They are ubiquitous in products like waterproofing, stain-resistant fabrics, and firefighting foam. The episode highlights the challenges in analyzing PFAs due to their widespread presence and the need for specialized equipment. The discussion also covers the impact of PFAs on human health, including cancer risks, and the efforts to reduce exposure through filtration and product updates. The conversation emphasizes the importance of collaboration and ongoing research to address PFAs contamination. Dr. Heist will discuss the project as a featured speaker during the Georgia Food Safety Conference, to be held Nov. 5- 6 at The Georgia Tech Research Institute Headquarters Conference Center (250 14th Street, Atlanta, GA).  

The 2026 governor's race a year away, and Wisconsin's next Supreme Court race is even closer. A new poll finds most voters in Wisconsin haven't made up their minds. We talked to people who rely on federal food assistance. And, industrial and municipal sludge has spread on fields around the state.

Tientallen inwoners van Ronse ontvingen onlangs de resultaten van de bloedtesten die ze op eigen initiatief lieten afnemen. Wat blijkt? Er zitten zeer hoge PFAS-waarden in hun bloed, ook bij jonge kinderen. En dat is verontrustend nieuws. PFAS verhoogt volgens de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie het risico op kanker. De boosdoener zou Utexbel zijn, een grote textielfabriek in het centrum van de stad, die al vaker werd gelinkt aan PFAS-verontreiniging in de stad. Het doet denken aan de 3M-saga in Zwijndrecht. Hoe erg is het gesteld in Ronse?

Could you be exposed to toxic pollution, and does it trace back to the U.S. military? The New Mexico Environment Department is trying to find out. Newly released data shows nearly everyone tested who lives or works near Cannon Air Force Base in Clovis, has elevated levels of toxic PFAS "forever chemicals" in their blood. New Mexico Environment Department Secretary James Kenney and Dr. Eric Chapman join Chris and Gabby to break down what this means for people living near the polluted area, and what the state is doing to help. Is the federal government doing enough to clean up the toxic mess? What health risks are people facing? PFAS exposure at Holloman Lake survey Thanks for listening.

Doug sits down with Dr. Victor Carsrud, Head of Functional Medicine & Health Innovation at Breather Mae, to map a no-fluff health playbook for high-demand performers—rodeo athletes, ranchers, farmers, and anyone who works hard. We dig into why "test, don't guess" matters, how a simple Gut Check unlocks better hormone balance and recovery, and the panels most annual physicals miss (full thyroid with antibodies, prolactin for pituitary stress, micronutrients, organic acids). We also get real on environmental toxins (mold, microplastics, PFAS), what to eat on the road, and why 30g protein within 30 minutes of waking changes your day. What you'll learn Why TSH alone isn't enough: add Free T3/T4 + TPO/TG antibodies How gut → brain → hormones all connect (and why it's step one) When prolactin flags pituitary stress (think head hits/endocrine disruptors) "Test don't guess" supplements (yes, vitamin D can be too high) Tiered testing: Baseline → Tier 1/2 → Tier 3 → Olympiad Real-world fueling for the road: protein-first wins for energy & focus. Chapters 00:00 Intro & access-anywhere functional medicine 02:15 What basic labs miss (TSH ≠ full thyroid picture) 08:40 Coaching model: from "doctor knows best" to partnership 10:45 Gut ↔ brain ↔ hormones—no more silos 15:00 You can't out-supplement bad data 21:00 Why proactive labs matter in dangerous sports & work 27:10 Low T in roughstock?

Hård kritik mot Kalibers beslut att sitta på en inspelning i flera år och så om den åtalade TV4-profilen sexköp eller journalistik? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Kalibers hemliga inspelningI veckan sände Sveriges Radios granskande program Kaliber ett avsnitt om PFAS-förgiftningen i Kallinge. Reportaget innehåller en hemlig inspelning med sprängstoff, som redaktionen suttit på i sex år. Anledningen till att den inte publicerats förrän nu är att de varit rädda för att den skulle kunna klassas som olovlig avlyssning. Nu när preskriptionstiden för det eventuella brottet gått ut publicerar de. Det här har i veckan lett till debatt. Var Kaliber för fega när de för sex år sedan bestämde sig för att riskerna med att publicera var för stora? Joanna Korbutiak har intervjuat Kalibers reporter Daniel Värjö, programmets dåvarande ansvariga utgivare Hanna Toll, Försvarsmaktens presschef Jonas Beltrame-Linné och Axel Björklund, ansvarig utgivare på Uppdrag granskning. TV4-profil åtalad för sexköpI förra veckan åtalades en reporter på TV4 för sexköp. Reportern i fråga har, både enligt sig själv och sina chefer, genomfört den här kontakten inom ramen för sitt arbete. Det var inte fråga om ett sexköp utan ett möte med en potentiell uppgiftslämnare. Förundersökningen är full av journalistiska diskussioner: frågor om källskydd, arbetsmetoder och reportrars frihet under ansvar. Vi har försökt reda i det här i veckan, men mött ett stort hinder. TV4 har valt strategin “locket på”.Freddi Ramel intervjuar åklagaren Kristoffer Kågström, TV4-profilens försvarsadvokat Henrik Olsson Lilja, Simon Häggström, utredande polis och Kvartals chefredaktör Jörgen Huitfeldt.

A few months ago, I recorded a podcast with my colleagues, Carla N. Hutton, Senior Regulatory Analyst for B&C, and Dr. Richard E. Engler, Director of Chemistry for B&C and The Acta Group (Acta®), our consulting affiliate, on the ever-expanding and complicated scope of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) regulation in the United States. We convened a webinar on this topic in mid-May that attracted a record-breaking 1000+ registrants, suggesting to us that PFAS continues to be a topic of enormous interest. As this topic is every bit as important and relevant today as it was in May, we are rebroadcasting our podcast. In our discussion, Carla, Rich, and I address the federal Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) reporting obligation and the diverse constellation of state-specific reporting and product restrictions that are mushrooming around the country. Keeping up with these very diverse restrictions is important and challenging to track and with which to comply. Our hope is our discussion will focus our listeners on this important, sprawling topic and offer some tips to help manage it.
