Plastic shower curtain liners are super convenient, easy to use, and easy to throw away after a period of time when they get moldy or mildew. However, not only is the plastic waste harmful to our environment, these plastic shower curtains contain a plethora of toxic chemicals to our body which we are exposed to every time we shower.   When the Center for Health, Environment & Justice tested PVC shower curtains, they found that 108 different volatile organic compounds were released from the shower curtain into the air over twenty-eight days.    Fortunately, there are some great alternative shower curtain materials like linen, organic cotton, and hemp that can be washed and reused and don't subject our bodies to harsh chemicals. That's why in this episode, we'll explore the Fatal Convenience, Plastic Shower Curtains.   Thank you to our sponsor:  Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off.

On this week's Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, opens the tap for a much-needed conversation with Dr. Daniel Jaffee, author of the brand new book, "Unbottled: The Fight against Plastic Water and for Water Justice," released by University of California Press, September 2023 (https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520306622/unbottled). Dan Jaffee is an environmental and rural sociologist, and Associate Professor of Sociology at Portland State University. He is the author of “Brewing Justice: Fair Trade Coffee, Sustainability, and Survival” (revised edition, UC Press 2014), which received the C. Wright Mills Book Award. He has published a number of articles and book chapters on water commodification and on social conflicts around bottled water. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2006. Unbottled is an exploration of bottled water's impact on social justice and sustainability, and how diverse movements are fighting back. In just four decades, bottled water has transformed from a luxury niche item into a ubiquitous consumer product, representing a $300 billion market dominated by global corporations. It sits at the convergence of a mounting ecological crisis of single-use plastic waste and climate change, a social crisis of affordable access to safe drinking water, and a struggle over the fate of public water systems. Unbottled examines the vibrant movements that have emerged to question the need for bottled water and challenge its growth in North America and worldwide. Drawing on extensive interviews with activists, residents, public officials, and other participants in controversies ranging from bottled water's role in unsafe tap water crises to groundwater extraction for bottling in rural communities, Dan Jaffee asks what this commodity's meteoric growth means for social inequality, sustainability, and the human right to water. Unbottled profiles campaigns to reclaim the tap and addresses the challenges of ending dependence on packaged water in places where safe water is not widely accessible. Clear and compelling, it assesses the prospects for the movements fighting plastic water and working to ensure water justice for all.

We've been told to recycle, repurpose, and reuse to reduce waste. But do our efforts make any difference? Is there a way to reduce the amount we generate, in the first place? And why does it matter?   Jill Winger is the author of “Old Fashioned on Purpose” and the host of the podcast by the same name. Today, she offers insights about how to reduce our waste. She gives both the why and the how. She discusses the problem waste creates in our own homes and for the planet. She notes, for example, that 40% of the oceans are now covered in plastic! She also offers ideas for reducing the waste we produce in our homes—by avoiding buying cheap products that end up more quickly in landfills, for example.   For more resources, visit Jill's website: theprairiehomestead.com Register for the Wise Traditions conference Check out our sponsors: Pluck and Optimal Carnivore

Angela presents a portion of her interview with Rachel Varga, in which they cover five key aspects: air, water, lighting, electromagnetics, and detoxing. Rachel stresses the importance of reducing stress and implementing cold therapy, sleep, saunaing, grounding, and clarifying techniques, as well as specific biohacks such as red light therapy, peptides, sunlight exposure, and fresh air. KEY TAKEAWAYS The five key biohacks for improving hair, skin, and nails are: reducing stress, cold therapy, sleep, saunaing, and grounding. Air purification in the home is important to remove mould, VOCs, and other pollutants that can cause skin issues. Drinking reverse osmosis or distilled water is recommended, as tap water may contain harmful substances. Structuring and hydrogenizing water can make it more bioavailable and provide antioxidant benefits. BEST MOMENTS "Dirt, debris, pollution, mould, when they sit on the skin, actually creates oxidative stress and accelerated aging." "LEDs penetrate 100 nanometers deeper in the skin than what we get outside. So I postulate hair loss, facial pigmentation, accelerated aging, circadian rhythm and balancing." "The eyes are the first area of the face to show signs of aging. That's why eyelid surgery is very popular for reducing excess footing to the upper lower eyelids for the face to age."

Season 3 begins as Penn returns from Penn & Teller Fool Us! production, & Matt departs for the new Penn & Teller Foolers tour.  Mox's Fringe Festival shows, a plan for getting cancelled, & marrying Steven Banks.              

Series 9 has landed! Our first guest is Cyrill Gutsch, the fascinating founder of Parley for the Oceans. With his partner Lea Stepken, this NY-based designer and branding expert started his global environmental organisation in 2012, after bumping into Pamela Anderson at an art fair. Pammy was wearing a Sea Shepherd T-shirt, and when Cyrill asked her why, she told him Sea Shepherd's activist-in-chief Paul Watson was in trouble - he'd been arrested in Frankfurt on an international warrant. Cyrill, being German, thought he might be able to help, and went to visit Watson in his lawyer's office. There, he learned that Watson's strife was a drop in the proverbial compared with what's happening to the oceans. Plastic pollution! Climate change! Overfishing! Could creativity be the super power needed to turn it around?The rest, as they say is history. Cyrill decided to ditch his regular clients, and donate his time to just one: OUR OCEANS. Specifically, “raising awareness for their beauty and fragility” and “collaborating on projects [to] end their destruction.”Over the years, such projects have included: working with Adidas to phase out single-use plastics; partnering with big-name visual artists on everything from underwater sculptures to sustainable surfboards; funding research into new materials; and setting up programs in schools. On a practical level, Parley's work is just as likely to play out as beach cleanups in the Maldives as it is to be a new Dior bag. It's all in the mix, to beat what Cyrill calls “our addiction” to virgin plastic.Next on his To-Do List? Just a total materials revolution. “We need to change the way we make stuff.”Check out the shownotes on wardrobecrisis.comCan you help us spread the word about Series 9?

Amid demands for higher pay and a shorter workweek, the United Auto Workers are likely to strike when the union's current contract expires next week. University of Michigan Ross School of Business professor Erik Gordon joins us. And, New York City, attempting to reign in the short-term rental market, has placed new rules on Airbnb properties. Roben Farzad, host of public radio's "Full Disclosure," joins us. Then, while Americans often diligently sort and recycle plastics at home, only 5% of plastics in the U.S. can actually be recycled. Judith Enck of the non-profit Beyond Plastics joins us to talk about plastic pollution and solutions to it.

In episode 304, Kestrel welcomes Eric Liedtke, the co-founder and CEO of UNLESS, to the show. A collective of innovators, engineers, artists, and activists, UNLESS make plant-based streetwear designed to leave zero plastic waste. “I think sustainability is one of those hygiene words at this point — like everybody can talk themselves into they're doing sustainable things. I think we need to get more specific. I think as marketers and storytellers, we need to really be very clear with our consumers what we're doing. And you know, this crewneck that nobody can see today that I'm wearing, it's gonna last as long as anything else, but when you're done with it, it will go harmlessly back to earth. And I'm using some of our old product and some of our scraps actually as feed for my raised bed gardens at home. This stuff works and it makes good, nutritious soil that we can grow roses or cotton or tomatoes out of.” -Eric Have you ever heard that recurring question in the sustainability and fashion space? I'd say it's also one that permeates the world of climate advocacy as well – and let's be honest, it's pretty binary-oriented in its framing.  I'm talking about the question of which is needed most – individual action, governmental action or corporate change. I mean, let's be real – we are in a state of emergency here, so all hands on deck is preferable, and many of these overlap, but you know, the mainstream narrative continues to search for the golden ticket that will get us all out of this mess.  One thing I hear so much more nowadays than in recent years is – the need for corporations to change. There are petitions regularly circulated, there's all the advocacy work organizations like Remake are doing pushing brands to sign onto the International Accord for garment worker safety. And in alignment with this, there is a lot going on with legislation to try to pass legal frameworks that would hold brands accountable to do better. And on that corporate change note – at this current moment in time, we are amidst an era of strikes happening across different industries because the power holders on top don't want to share with the folks working further down the hierarchy. From actors and writers in the entertainment industry to municipal workers and hotel employees, the pressure is on for corporations to change – to share a bigger piece of the massive pie they're indulging in. But also – it's important to acknowledge that there are so many folks across the corporate space working in sustainability and beyond, and trying to challenge the system from within to change. And let's be real – that's not an easy task with all the current systems in place.  This week's guest worked from the inside for a so-called *power player* for over 25 years trying to push for change, and then, he left to start his own company with a focus on collaborating with innovators, engineers, artists, and activists, to make plant-based streetwear that leaves zero plastic waste behind.  Quotes & links from the conversation: “I did as much as I could when I was at Adidas to turn us from a brand that was focused on just virgin polyester use — as for those that don't know, 70% of fashion and especially sports brands are made from petroleum. It's basically been this advent of petroleum-based product called polyesters or nylons or spandexes, but it all comes from petroleum-based products, which is forever material. When you start to become aware of that, and you start to become aware of the degradation these forever materials have on the planet, on our fellow species, on ourselves, you find it harder and harder to whisper yourself to sleep. And those voices that were personal to you, come up louder and louder in your head. And you can't unhear and unsee the things you're doing. So, at a certain point, you're like ok, I need to step outside and take this industrial experience I have from 26 years at Adidas and my passion for a better way and helping solve the world's problems, and combine it into one effort, and that really was joining forces with a band of likeminded people to create the UNLESS Collective.” -Eric (9:30) Natural Fiber Welding (one of the companies UNLESS partners with) — listen to past episode 124 featuring their founder Luke Haverhals “Luke obviously has this unique innovation of plant-based leather, 100% plant-based leather (the only one I've found by the way), and there's a lot of plants being used for leather-type material — whether it be grapes or apples or coconut or cactus, I think there's a lot of solutions out there. Most of them, if not all of them that I've found, are fillers for polyurethane which is another form of plastic and also need to have backing, which they have to glue a synthetic backing on the back for stability.” -Eric (21:45) UNLESS Website Follow Eric on Instagram > Follow UNLESS on Instagram >

Plastic is just about everywhere, and there’s going to be a lot more of it. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development expects global plastic use to triple by 2060. So what are we to do with all the waste? Tossing empty iced coffee cups, peanut butter jars and blueberry containers into a recycling bin might seem like the obvious solution. But while the plastics industry has been working hard to promote recycling as a fix since the ’70s, it turns out our recycling systems are not equipped to handle the various plastics we use. “Think of your own home. On top of your washing machine, you probably have a bright orange, hard plastic detergent bottle. And then in your refrigerator, you might have a squeezable clear ketchup bottle. Those two plastic containers cannot be recycled together,” said Judith Enck, founder of Beyond Plastics and former regional administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. On the show today: the fundamental problems with plastic recycling and the ubiquitous chasing-arrow symbol, and what we should do about it. Then, we’ll discuss Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo’s visit to China, and why it may be time for Chinese officials to make a visit of their own. And is Yahoo is making a comeback? Later, we'll hear some listeners' thoughts on robotaxis. And this week's answer to the Make Me Smart question comes from one of the economists behind our favorite nerdy econ game, Tradle. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Plastic Recycling Doesn’t Work and Will Never Work” from The Atlantic “Toward a circular economy: Tackling the plastics recycling problem” from The Conversation “The recycling myth: A plastic waste solution littered with failure” from Reuters “Decades of public messages about recycling in the US have crowded out more sustainable ways to manage waste” from The Conversation “The Plastics Industry’s Long Fight to Blame Pollution on You” from Tahe Intercept “What a reporter learned after cataloging her plastic use for a week” from Marketplace “UN Agency Provides Path to 80 Percent Reduction in Plastic Waste. Recycling Alone Won't Cut It” from Inside Climate News “U.S. Does Not Want to ‘Decouple' From China, Raimondo Says” from The New York Times “How Yahoo is coming back from the dead” from Axios We want to hear your answer to the Make Me Smart question.
