Many had hoped that a global UN plastics treaty would finally curb pollution. But last month talks between representatives from more than 180 countries failed to reach a deal. Climate and environment reporter Petra Stock tells Nour Haydar about Australia's rising plastic waste problem and what needs to be done to tackle one of the biggest environmental threats of our time You can support the Guardian at theguardian.com/fullstorysupport

Austin claims to be an environmentally-friendly city — and based on our local tree canopy, that's mostly warranted. But zooming in, it's clear that trees are more dense on the west side than in East Austin. Tree-huggers are paying attention, though, and regularly work to make things better — including by holding the annual Tree of the Year awards (nominations are still open, by the way). Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by TreeFolks' Executive Director Andrew W. Smiley to talk about Austin's latest Tree Canopy Report, how our canopy compares to those in other cities across the country, and why it matters.  Learn more about the sponsors of this September 10th episode: Downtown Austin Alliance Wise Huel - Use code AUSTIN for 15% off for new customers Want some more Austin news?

Elles illuminent parfois le ciel d'aurores spectaculaires… mais elles représentent aussi une menace invisible pour nos satellites. Les tempêtes solaires, ou géomagnétiques, sont déclenchées par d'immenses éjections de particules chargées en provenance du Soleil. Lorsqu'elles frappent la haute atmosphère terrestre, elles modifient sa densité, perturbant vitesse, altitude et durée de vie des engins en orbite.Mais avec le réchauffement climatique, un nouveau facteur s'invite dans l'équation. Contrairement à la basse atmosphère, qui se réchauffe sous l'effet du dioxyde de carbone, la haute atmosphère se refroidit. Cela entraîne une diminution progressive de sa densité. Alors, une question se pose : les tempêtes solaires pourraient-elles devenir plus destructrices pour les satellites dans les décennies à venir ?C'est ce qu'ont étudié des chercheurs du Centre national de recherche atmosphérique (NCAR) aux États-Unis, en collaboration avec l'université de Kyushu au Japon. Leur modèle s'est appuyé sur la super-tempête des 10 et 11 mai 2024, provoquée par d'énormes éjections de masse coronale. Les scientifiques ont simulé cette même tempête à différents moments : en 2016, puis en 2040, 2061 et enfin en 2084. Le tout grâce à un supercalculateur capable de reproduire l'atmosphère terrestre jusqu'à 700 kilomètres d'altitude.Résultat : d'ici la fin du siècle, la haute atmosphère pourrait être 20 à 50 % moins dense au pic d'une tempête solaire, en raison de l'augmentation du CO₂. Et ce n'est pas une bonne nouvelle. Car si l'air y devient plus rare, les variations provoquées par une tempête seront proportionnellement plus violentes. Là où une tempête double aujourd'hui la densité au maximum de son intensité, elle pourrait presque la tripler dans le futur. Concrètement, cela signifie davantage de contraintes pour les satellites, mais aussi pour les débris spatiaux qui menacent déjà la sécurité en orbite. Les auteurs appellent à de nouvelles recherches, afin de mieux anticiper ces évolutions de la météo spatiale et leurs effets sur nos infrastructures. Hébergé par Acast.

Even though polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were banned nearly 50 years ago, these persistent chemicals are still part of our daily environment. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, we talk with Dr. Amanda Bullert, neuroscientist and research consultant at the University of Minnesota, about what PCBs are, how exposure still happens today, and what her team's research reveals about their effects on the brain. Amanda breaks down how PCBs influence metabolism, inflammation, and long-term brain health, why certain communities are more at risk, and what steps individuals and public health leaders can take to reduce harm. It's a conversation that sheds light on the hidden legacy of environmental pollutants and the lessons they offer for today's public health challenges.

Dans le supplément de ce dimanche, en première partie, histoire de gang pour commencer. Le Soudan du Sud, dernier au classement de l'ONU en développement humain, est marqué par une forte criminalité juvénile à Juba, la capitale. Ces jeunes organisés en gangs font régner la terreur dans les rues, délaissés par leurs familles sous le trauma de la guerre civile. En deuxième partie, objectif dépollution de la baie de Dakar. La capitale sénégalaise est bien belle et ses alentours au fort potentiel de loisirs et de tourisme. Mais voilà, la grande baie de Hann est polluée. Gravement pollué. Comment faire marche arrière ? (Rediffusion) Soudan du Sud: à Juba, les jeunes sous l'emprise des gangs Vols à l'arrachée, cambriolages nocturnes, combats de rue à coups de machette… À Juba, la capitale du Soudan du Sud, la criminalité des jeunes explose. Des dizaines de gangs quadrillent la ville. Leurs membres sont en majorité des adolescents ayant fui leurs familles démunies, voire maltraitantes, souvent durement frappées par la guerre civile. Pour eux, le gang est une nouvelle famille, et c'est une source de subsistance. Mais c'est surtout un univers violent, un piège. Nous sommes allés à la rencontre de ces jeunes gangsters de Juba, que l'ONG Gredo, soutenue par l'Unicef, tente d'aider à s'en sortir.

Mais côté face, la réalité de Dakar est tout autre. La baie de Hann est massivement polluée. Elle s'étend sur 20 kilomètres à l'est de la capitale et abrite : le port de Dakar, des quartiers de pêcheurs et une vaste zone industrielle. Autrefois appréciée des habitants et des visiteurs pour ses eaux calmes et ses plages de sable fin, la baie est aujourd'hui envahie par les ordures : 65% des déchets industriels et 35% des déchets ménagers de Dakar y sont déversés.

Amphibians are among the most threatened groups of animals on Earth, making them critical indicators of ecosystem health and biodiversity preservation. In this episode, we are joined by Mark Mandica, Executive Director of Amphibian Foundation, who shares his expertise on amphibian ecology, conservation biology, and the urgent need to protect these keystone species and ecosystem engineers. His leadership highlights how amphibians are at the heart of biodiversity management and biodiversity conservation strategies worldwide.Despite their ancient evolutionary history and vital ecological roles, amphibians are facing an unprecedented crisis. Pollution, habitat loss, disease, and the escalating impacts of climate change are driving widespread declines in amphibian biodiversity, with serious consequences for freshwater ecosystems and wildlife ecology. Amphibians such as frogs, salamanders, and caecilians are not only fascinating in their biology but are also shaping freshwater ecosystems and influencing the survival of countless other forms of wildlife. Their sensitivity to pollution, habitat degradation, and shifts in freshwater ecology makes them some of the most powerful biodiversity indicators, helping us measure the health of freshwater biodiversity and ecosystems.Mark discusses how amphibian conservation intersects with conservation biology at large. He examines the threats amphibians face from environmental pollutants, agricultural runoff, and urban expansion, as well as the spread of deadly pathogens like chytrid fungus. He also explains how amphibian conservation is directly linked to broader biodiversity preservation, since their survival influences ecosystem stability, food webs, and freshwater biodiversity across rivers, wetlands, and streams.Amphibians also illustrate the deep connections between wildlife biology, climate change, and the climate crisis. As global temperatures rise, amphibians are losing habitat, experiencing altered breeding cycles, and facing water stress in freshwater ecosystems. Their declines foreshadow broader biodiversity loss, making amphibian conservation urgent for protecting both wildlife and human futures. Conservation biology initiatives increasingly recognize amphibians as frontline species in the battle to mitigate biodiversity loss and adapt to environmental change.We also explore practical approaches to amphibian conservation, from habitat restoration and protection of freshwater ecosystems to addressing pollution and promoting climate resilience. By integrating amphibian ecology into biodiversity management and biodiversity conservation strategies, researchers and conservationists are not only protecting amphibians but also securing the ecological services that healthy freshwater biodiversity provides.This conversation with Mark and the Amphibian Foundation underscores that saving amphibians is about far more than protecting a single group of animals—it is about maintaining biodiversity hotspots, sustaining ecosystem balance, and ensuring that wildlife and people alike benefit from thriving freshwater ecology. Amphibians remind us that conservation biology must address the intersections of pollution, climate change, and biodiversity preservation. Their story is a powerful call to action to safeguard amphibian biodiversity and confront the global climate crisis.#amphibians #amphibianconservation #amphibianbiodiversity #amphibianecology #biodiversityindictaors #keystonespecies #ecosystemengineers #amphibian #freshwaterecology #freshwaterbiodiversity #freshwaterecosystems #biodiversity #biodiversitymanagement #biodiversityconservation #biodiversitypreservation #wildlife #wildlifeecology #wildlifebiology #conservationbiology #pollution #climatechange #climatecrisis Get full access to The Think Wildlife Podcast at anishbanerjee.substack.com/subscribe

C'est la face cachée de la transition énergétique. Vous le savez... pour enrayer le réchauffement climatique, nous devons, n'en déplaise à Donald Trump, arrêter de brûler du charbon, du pétrole et du gaz. Actuellement, le secteur des transports est un des plus gros émetteurs de gaz à effet de serre à l'échelle mondiale. (Rediffusion du 24 janvier 2025) Ces émissions pourraient atteindre un pic cette année, selon le Conseil international des transports propres, grâce aux règlementations carbone et à l'essor des véhicules électriques. Mais cet essor a un prix : une ruée d'une ampleur inédite vers de nombreux métaux, dont le cobalt. Nous vous emmenons à la découverte de cette face cachée en RDC qui abrite les deux tiers des réserves mondiales de cobalt. Reportage de Samuel Turpin et éclairage de Anaïs Tobalagba, chercheuse au RAID et autrice du rapport Dans les coulisses de la transition énergétique : Regard critique sur l'impact des mines industrielles de cobalt en RDC.

Bertie speaks with Mark Parrington about this year's record-breaking wildfires, and the health implications of increasing air pollution.  Mark is a senior scientist at the EU's Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service, where he uses satellite imagery to monitor wildfire emissions in real-time.  He tells Bertie about the scale of the recent surge in wildfires across Europe, North America, and the Arctic, and the health impacts of particulate matter and long-range pollution transport. They also discuss the climate implications as wildfires – especially in Arctic peatlands - release millions of tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere.  Further reading:  Arctic Climate Change Update 2024: Key Trends and Impacts, AMAP , 2024 State of Wildfires 2023-2024, Earth System Science Data, 2024 'Global, regional, and national mortality burden attributable to air pollution from landscape fires: a health impact assessment study', The Lancet, 2024  'EU wildfires worst on record as burning season continues', The Guardian, 2025 'Why are Europe and the Arctic heating up faster than the rest of the world?'

Il y a quelques jours, je me suis plongée dans le livre de mon invitée, No More Plastic: comment le plastique ruine notre santé.  Je croyais avoir compris l'enjeu du plastique, sujet que j'avais traité plusieurs fois dans des épisodes de Demain N'attend Pas. Et pourtant… en trois heures de lecture, ma vision a basculé. J'ai levé les yeux du livre, j'ai regardé mon appartement, mes placards… et j'ai pris conscience de l'ampleur des dégâts : nous vivons littéralement dans le plastique.  Ses fonctionnalités extraordinaires (résistance, durabilité, légereté, imperméabilisation, brillance...) en ont fait un matériaux de base pour toutes les industries.  Résultat : le plastique est partout autour de nous. Dans nos bouteilles et nos contenants, dans nos vêtements et nos chaussures, dans nos crèmes, nos vernis et nos shampooings, dans nos produits ménagers, et jusque dans notre nourriture... Partout.  Aujourd'hui, je suis ravie d'accueillir Rosalie Mann, fondatrice de la No More Plastic Foundation, une ONG engagée contre la pollution plastique, et autrice du livre No More Plastic, comment le plastique ruine notre santé publié aux éditions La Plage.Rosalie nous rappelle la réalité des chiffres :

Greetings!You're likely in the thick of it with back-to-school activities. But back-to-school isn't just about packing lunches and adjusting to new schedules. It's also a time when kids begin to hear harmful messages about food and bodies. In this episode of Sunny Side Up Nutrition Podcast, we're joined by Denise Hamburger, JD, founder and executive director of BE REAL USA, and Selena Salfen, MPH, RD, a public health dietitian working to shift systems toward size-inclusive, weight-neutral models of care. Together, they share insights on BE REAL's Let's Eat curriculum, a nutrition program for middle and high school students that focuses on tuned-in eating teaching students to consider their body cues, nutritional needs, food preferences, and past eating experiences. The lessons are designed to be inclusive across cultures, neurodiverse learners, and varying economic backgrounds.Click here to visit BE REAL USA, Let's EatKey Takeaways * Let's Eat is a new curriculum aimed at teaching nutrition without the influence of diet culture.* The curriculum is free and accessible to all students and educators. * Let's Eat encourages students to trust their bodies and make informed food choices.* The curriculum includes cultural sensitivity and celebrates diverse food practices.* A panel of 42 experts contributed to the development of Let's Eat.* Educators can access Let's Eat through professional development training.* BE REAL USA has ambassadors who are trained to deliver th.e curriculum* Denise and Selena chat about their favorite foods.Links to Resources Mentioned:* BE REAL's Let's Eat Middle and High School Nutrition Curriculum* BE REAL's Body Kind High School Body Image Curriculum* BE REAL's Ambassador Program* BE REAL's Body Kind Peer-Led College Body Confidence Seminar* National Alliance for Eating Disorders* Lutz, Alexander & Associates Nutrition Therapy* Pinney Davenport Nutrition, PLLCMore about Denise and SelenaDenise Hamburger, JDDenise Hamburger, JD, is the founder and executive director of BE REAL USA, a nonprofit that imagines a world where every child can grow up with a healthy relationship to food and their body. In 2016, Denise created a professional development workshop for teachers called Body Confident Schools and has delivered this training to over 10,000 educators around the world. With over 250 conference, keynote, and school presentations, Denise has presented at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health to the National Association of School Psychologists; at the Center for Disease Control to their Healthy Schools Division; at the United States Department of Agriculture to their Food and Nutrition Services Group; and to Amazon's Body Positive Peers Employee Resource Group.Denise co-developed Be Real's BodyKind high school, body image curriculum with a team of international body image academics, psychologists and teachers. BodyKind is the first body image curriculum developed for all students. It includes the body image experiences of people of different races, ethnicities, sexualities, gender identities, physical and mental abilities, and body sizes. BodyKind was tested in an 1150-student Randomized Control Trial in Ireland in 2024, and the program has proven to increase to student Body Appreciation, Self-Compassion and Body Appreciation. These aspects are associated with better self-esteem and better mental health.In 2025, Denise--with Ramsey County, MN Public Health--co-developed and launched a weight-neutral nutrition curriculum called Be Real's Let's Eat for middle school and high school students. Let's Eat focuses on Tuned-in Eating, which teaches students to integrate their own body cues, day's nutritional needs, food preferences and eating experiences into their eating patterns. Let's Eat lessons are relevant across cultures, neurodiversity, and economic status.Denise has a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Michigan Law School and was an environmental attorney in her first career. She co-wrote the legal treatise Pollution in the United Kingdom. Denise is an Anti-Bias, Antiracist Certified curriculum writer.

Thanks for being here.In this episode, we're joined by two of the co-creators of the Be Real Let's Eat curriculum: Denise Hamburger and Selena Salfen.Elizabeth: Denise Hamburger, JD, is the founder and executive director of Be Real USA, a nonprofit that imagines a world where every child can grow up with a healthy relationship to food and their body.In 2025, Denise—with Ramsey County, Minnesota Public Health—co-developed and launched a weight-neutral curriculum called Be Real's Let's Eat for middle school and high school students.Elizabeth: Selena Salfen, MPH, RD (she/her), is a registered dietitian in public health. Much of her work involves transitioning public health and healthcare systems from weight-focused to size-inclusive, weight-neutral models of practice.Denise and Selena are two of the many experts who came together to create the curriculum. It focuses on Tuned-in Eating, which teaches students to integrate their own body cues, nutritional needs, food preferences, and eating experiences into their eating patterns. Lessons are relevant across cultures, neurodiversity, and economic status.Anna: Denise and Selena, we are so happy you're here. Welcome.Multiple speakers: Great to be here. Thank you, thank you.Anna: Let's jump in. To start us off, can you each tell us a bit about yourself and the work you do?Denise: Thank you. I guess I'll start. I'm Denise Hamburger. I'm the founder and executive director of Be Real USA, a nonprofit that focuses on providing the highest quality resources on body image and eating disorder prevention for schools.I've been talking to educators and parents for almost ten years now about how to create body-confident environments in schools and in homes. We have a presentation I've been giving for ten years called Body Confident Schools, which helps the adults in young people's lives develop language and understanding that supports raising kids with body confidence.This language and understanding is very different from what we get in diet culture. In the last five years, Be Real added a new piece to its mission: curriculum development. Teachers had been asking us for better resources on body image and nutrition, and we felt compelled to develop them ourselves.Our high school body image curriculum, BodyKind, was developed by a team of academics and tested in schools. We've tested it three times, and we've had four published papers on its feasibility, accessibility, and effectiveness.We're starting that same kind of testing now with our new curriculum, Let's Eat. We also have 150 ambassadors across the country who present our workshops and share our curriculum.Anna: Wow. We certainly need new curricula, so we're so glad you're doing this work and that you're in this space.Elizabeth: I want to hear more about the ambassadors, but we'll leave that for later.Selena: I'm Selena Salfen. I'm a registered dietitian, but I work in public health, so I don't see clients one-on-one. I focus more on macro-level policy, systems, and environmental change.I work on a chronic disease prevention grant, where we support schools in areas like food access, nutrition, and mental health. That's how I ended up working on Let's Eat.I'm also very committed to bringing size-inclusive, weight-neutral work into public health and undoing some of the harm done since the 1990s, when public health began to hyper-focus on weight, weight control, and BMI.I've done a lot of work with WIC, integrating weight-inclusive practices, and expanded that work into other community-based health programs.I'm also a parent to a child with sensory needs around food, which shapes my perspective. And I'm a Be Real ambassador—that's how Denise and I met.Anna: That's wonderful. I really appreciate the work you're doing. I imagine it sometimes feels like swimming upstream in public health.Selena: You know what? It's been better than I expected—and actually really exciting.Elizabeth: That's great to hear.Anna: We're recording this episode just as school is starting across the country, and we're excited to talk about this new curriculum. Denise, can you tell us more about Let's Eat and what inspired you to create it?Denise: Sure. I mentioned earlier that I've been speaking with teachers for the last ten years. They'd often ask me what curriculum they should be using—specifically one that doesn't harm students' body image.We know from research that what's typically being taught reflects diet culture and can be harmful. For example, a few studies have asked eating disorder patients what triggered their eating disorder, and 14% in both studies mentioned their “healthy eating curriculum” in school.So at Be Real, we decided to develop a curriculum that focuses on body cues and interoceptive awareness—helping students learn to eat based on what their bodies are telling them.Selena was reviewing our BodyKind curriculum when we started talking, and she mentioned she was looking for a weight-neutral curriculum for Minneapolis. A lightbulb went off, and we decided to create one together.It's been an amazing collaboration. I come from one angle, Selena comes from another, and we always land in the same place. I focus on making sure lessons are engaging and accessible, while Selena makes sure they reflect the needs of neurodiverse kids, immigrant kids, and food-insecure kids.The result is a free, two-day curriculum for both middle and high school students. It aligns with the HECAT standards, comes in a 42-page toolkit with lesson plans, slides, and worksheets, and includes required professional development for teachers so they can shift away from diet culture before teaching it.We were able to create this thanks to funders like the National Alliance for Eating Disorders, Ramsey County Public Health, and the Minnesota Department of Health.Anna: Wow. That's fabulous. We're so excited that Let's Eat exists. And I love that it's a two-day lesson plan—not something overwhelming. Teachers often worry about how curricula fit with state standards, but as you said, this aligns well.Elizabeth: Selena, what concerns do you have about how nutrition is typically taught to children?Selena: First, I want to acknowledge that educators who teach “good and bad” foods mean well. They've been enlisted in what's been called the “war on obesity” since the 2000s.Good people want children to avoid chronic disease, but they've been told the way to do this is through weight control, calorie tracking, and restrictive eating. We now know this approach is harmful, not evidence-based, and doesn't actually make kids physically or mentally healthier—or smaller.Many existing nutrition education tools encourage weight or body fat measurements, food logs, calorie counting, or labeling foods as good/bad. This can trigger disordered eating, poor body image, and food obsession.With Let's Eat, we focus instead on helping students learn about food in a way that builds trust in their bodies and avoids shame, guilt, or fear.Elizabeth: Denise, how does Let's Eat differ from other nutrition curricula?Denise: Great question. First, we don't use body size as a proxy for health. Instead, we empower students to be the experts on their own eating.We avoid shame-based language, rules, or fear around food. Instead, we use guidelines that leave room for nuance. We also encourage reflection on past eating experiences—like noticing how your body felt after eating—and using that information for the future.Another big difference is the diversity of input. Thanks to Selena, we had 42 experts review the curriculum, including dietitians, doctors, teachers, researchers, body image experts, and students.We're proud of how inclusive it is, and how it focuses on empowerment, curiosity, and calmness around food.Anna: I really enjoyed lending a little part to the project. What I love most is how you've taken weight out of it. Weight is woven through so much of nutrition curricula, but kids are supposed to be gaining weight. Their bodies are supposed to be changing. Let's Eat acknowledges this and empowers students to tune in and trust that they are the experts of their own bodies.Denise: Exactly. What we teach is Tuned-in Eating. It's about helping students feel capable and confident when it comes to food. We encourage them to be curious about past eating experiences—what worked and what didn't—and use that to guide future choices.Instead of rules, we provide guidelines. Rules can encourage black-and-white thinking, but guidelines leave room for flexibility.Selena: One big difference is how we approach foods that students are often taught to fear. For example, ultra-processed foods or sugar. Educators often feel pressure to talk about these, but fear-based teaching isn't helpful.Instead, we explain concepts like whole vs. refined grains in a way that avoids shame. If you prefer white rice, you can pair it with protein, fat, and fiber to balance the meal. We also celebrate cultural foods like rice and tortillas, which are often unfairly stigmatized.We're also committed to making Let's Eat neurodivergent-friendly and trauma-informed. Not every student can rely on hunger cues, and that's okay. Instead of insisting on “no distractions at meals,” we encourage students to experiment with what works for them—whether that includes a tablet or not.We also acknowledge food access and insecurity. Not all students have choices, so we avoid presenting nutrition in a way that assumes unlimited access.I'm also proud that we brought in such diverse perspectives. Reviewers included Dr. Whitney Trotter and Angela Goens, co-founders of the BIPOC Eating Disorder Conference, as well as Anna (you!) and many others.Anna: It really shows. The diversity of expertise and voices makes Let's Eat so much stronger.Creating a curriculum like this must have been a challenge. It's so much easier to be black and white—this is good, this is bad. But you've created something inclusive and nuanced.Denise: Yes, that was one of the challenges. We had to decide how much detail was actually helpful. Thanks to Selena, we avoided going too far down rabbit holes and instead kept lessons high-level and practical.We focus on the basics—carbohydrates, fats, protein—with a nod to vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Just enough to help students fuel their day without overwhelming them.Selena: And credit goes to Allie Latvala, who did a beautiful job writing for the age range. It's a big responsibility to protect young people, and while no curriculum will be perfect, we've done our best to make it safe and inclusive.Selena: Yes, and we'll continue to make adjustments as we receive feedback. We listened to students and teachers during evaluation, and we'll keep listening if improvements are needed.Anna: That's so important. What did students and teachers say during the pilot?Denise: We tested it with 250 students. Their feedback was invaluable—everything from whether the images felt too young or too old, to what activities were engaging.One teacher, Sarah, had her students list reasons we eat, beyond hunger. They filled the board with 100 reasons—celebrations, traditions, comfort, fun. We added that activity to the curriculum, because it gets students thinking about eating as a multi-dimensional experience, not just fuel.Anna: I love that. So many nutrition classes reduce eating to just nutrients or body size. Asking students to reflect on the many reasons we eat helps them appreciate the full picture.Elizabeth: Denise, for parents and educators who want to bring Let's Eat into schools, how can they access it?Denise: There are two main ways. First, it's free. At conferences, we hand out postcards with QR codes. Scanning the code takes you to our professional development training. After completing the training and a short test, teachers gain access to the full toolkit, slides, and worksheets.Second, educators can become Be Real Ambassadors. Ambassadors get access to our presentations and resources, and they bring them into their communities. Right now, we have about 150 ambassadors around the world—teachers, dietitians, public health educators, and more.We provide them with templates, letters, agendas, slides, and other materials so they can succeed in sharing this work locally.Anna: That's incredible. You're not only creating a curriculum—you're creating a movement.Anna: What challenges did you face in creating a curriculum that's both helpful and impactful without causing harm?Selena: It was definitely tricky. We could have created a “masterpiece” that said exactly what we wanted, but it might not have been usable in schools. Teachers often have to align with CDC HECAT standards.We worked hard to meet most of the knowledge expectations, but we were intentional about skipping some. For example, one standard asks students to “analyze healthy and risky approaches to weight management.” We didn't include that, because it would reinforce harmful weight-focused thinking.Another standard says to “avoid sugary drinks.” Instead, we reframed it around hydration—water, milk, and other options—while acknowledging that sugary drinks exist without making them forbidden.Denise: Teachers don't expect every curriculum to meet every single standard, but we wanted to cover most. And it was important that Let's Eat still teach the core of nutrition—like macronutrients and hydration—just in a less fear-based way.Selena: Exactly. We frame carbohydrates as “short energy” and protein and fat as “long energy.” It helps students contextualize food in ways that feel supportive, not restrictive.Anna: That's such a refreshing approach. All right, let's move into our last question. We love to ask our guests: what's one of your favorite foods right now? It doesn't have to be forever, just what you're enjoying at the moment and why.Denise: I just made a summer fruit buttermilk cake with Michigan cherries, blackberries, peaches, and blueberries. We had four cups of fruit in it. My kids were visiting, and we finished the whole cake in under an hour. It was so good I've been waking up thinking about when I can make it again.Anna: That sounds amazing. And you may not know this, but Elizabeth used to be a professional baker.Denise: Oh, then I'll have to send you the recipe!Elizabeth: Please do. Selena, what about you?Selena: I had to think about this. I love all foods, so nothing stood out at first. But then I realized I've been cooking a lot from the cookbook Curry Every Day by Atul Kochhar. It's full of curries from around the world. I know it's summer, but I still love making them.Elizabeth: That sounds wonderful. I'm going to have to check that out.Anna: Thank you both so much for joining us and for sharing your work. Let's Eat is such an important resource, and we'll link everything in the show notes so parents and teachers can access the training and curriculum.Denise: Thank you—it was a pleasure.Selena: Thank you so much.Anna: And thank you to our listeners.

After three years of negotiating, talks over a global plastics treaty came to an end in Geneva last week with no agreement in place. So why has it been so difficult to get countries to agree to cut plastic production? Madeleine Finlay hears from Karen McVeigh, a senior reporter for Guardian Seascapes, about a particularly damaging form of plastic pollution causing devastation off the coast of Kerala, and where we go now that countries have failed to reach a deal.
