California has invested tens of billions of dollars in preventing climate change, billions more than California's investment in adapting to the effects of climate change and directly preventing disasters. And now, the devastation of the recent Los Angeles wildfires is further proof that governments need to focus on protecting citizens through cheap and simple investments in climate adaptation rather than expensive and inefficient investments in climate change prevention. Bjorn Lomborg is the president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, the former director of the Danish government's Environmental Assessment Institute, and the author of the best-selling book The Skeptical Environmentalist (2001). He has been named one of Time's 100 most influential people and one of the UK Guardian's “50 people who can save the planet.” His latest book is Best Things First: The 12 Most Efficient Solutions for the World's Poorest and Our Global SDG Promises (Copenhagen Consensus Center, 2023).Read the transcript here.

HOW DOES THE FIRBOMBING OF TOKYO'S POOREST NEIGHBORSHOOD WIN A WAR? 4/8: Black Snow: Curtis LeMay, the Firebombing of Tokyo, and the Road to the Atomic Bomb by James M. Scott 1945 TOKYO https://www.amazon.com/Black-Snow-Curtis-Firebombing-Atomic/dp/1324002999/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1X64JYW3Z1OT9&keywords=BLACK+SNOW+JAMES+SCOTT&qid=1674137497&s=books&sprefix=black+snow+james+scott%2Cstripbooks%2C61&sr=1-1 Seven minutes past midnight on March 10, 1945, nearly 300 American B-29s thundered into the skies over Tokyo. Their payloads of incendiaries ignited a firestorm that reached up to 2,800 degrees, liquefying asphalt and vaporizing thousands; sixteen square miles of the city were flattened and more than 100,000 men, women, and children were killed. Black Snow is the story of this devastating operation, orchestrated by Major General Curtis LeMay, who famously remarked: “If we lose the war, we'll be tried as war criminals.” James M. Scott reconstructs in granular detail that horrific night, and describes the development of the B-29, the capture of the Marianas for use as airfields, and the change in strategy from high-altitude daylight “precision” bombing to low-altitude nighttime incendiary bombing. Most importantly, the raid represented a significant moral shift for America, marking the first time commanders deliberately targeted civilians which helped pave the way for the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki five months later. Drawing on first-person interviews with American pilots and bombardiers and Japanese survivors, air force archives, and oral histories never before published in English, Scott delivers a harrowing and gripping account, and his most important and compelling work to date.

State Sen. Andrew Brennan's legislation could close the schools in the bottom 5%.
Will it be dozens, hundreds or thousands killed? Mayotte's worst cyclone in 90 years has flattened homes, knocked out power and cut phone service, leaving faraway loved ones in limbo as they desperately try to get in touch with those in the French Indian Ocean department. We ask why Chido proved so devastating and track the storm as it now hits Mozambique and the nearby Comoro Islands. With 77 percent of the population below the poverty line and so many shantytowns, it's little wonder that so many homes got flattened. Mayotte is a magnet for asylum seekers and economic migrants and serves as a capsule of the demographic pressures that France and Europe face. The far right won a seat there in the last legislative elections. What response will we see in the wake of this disaster?And what solutions are there going forward? This as the planet experiences both a rising population and rising temperatures; the kind that environmentalists say lead precisely to this sort of extreme weather occurrence.Produced by Rebecca Gnignati, Elisa Amiri and Ilayda Habip.
Earlier this week, senior's advocate Susan Walsh delivered her first report on how well older people in this province are living. It turns out for many of them, their income adds up to less than a full-time job on minimum wage. And more than fifty percent of seniors have only government checks as income. Walsh says there's a lot of work to be done to ensure our seniors live as well as they can.

The first census in Valley City in 1880 recorded three hundred twenty residents. By 1890, the population had grown to over a thousand, and Valley City continued to expand from there.

J.D. Vance's rise to the GOP ticket has opened up scrutiny into the junior senator's past and roots. Before he entered politics, Vance entered the public spotlight as the author of a best-selling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy. While often marketed as an authentic glimpse of Appalachian working class life, what Elegy really offers is a portrait of a man whose roots and life path have been decidedly different from those of Appalachia's working poor. Like the GOP itself, Vance's claims to represent Appalachia's poorest don't hold water. In this episode of The Marc Steiner Show, Beth Howard of Showing Up for Racial Justice and Hy Thurman, a former Young Patriot, discuss the radical history of Appalachia, and how progressives can bring white workers in this region and beyond into a multiracial working class movement for social justice.Studio Production: David HebdenPost-Production: Alina NehlichHelp us continue producing The Marc Steiner Show by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

A new report from the World Economic Forum has defined six 'archetype' countries and looks at the differing challenges across the globe, and what policymakers need to know to achieve an 'equitable transition'.

What is the difference between Haiti and Cuba and the other Caribbean Islands such as Jamaica and Barbados? In today's Lecture, we begin by asking the students to provide an answer from several options. The activity provided a vital introduction to the topic, exploring the paradox of sovereignty. The Lecture is part of a course at Jamaica Theological Seminary https://jts.edu.jm and a Lecture series by The Neoliberal Corporation , https://theneoliberal.com. The students in the class are taking the course via zoom from all over the world. The Lecture is delivered by Professor Renaldo McKenzie, Author of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance and Doctoral Candidate at Georgetown University and Temple University Renaldo graduated from University of Penn and is a Penn Alumni. Lecture in Notes: The Paradox of Sovereignty: Cuba and Haiti's Struggle for Freedom and the Challenge of Development (Chapter Excerpt). By Rev. Renaldo McKenzie, Author of NeoLiberal Globalization Reconsidered,Professor of Caribbean Thought, Jamaica Theological Seminary Brain Teaser: Quiz What do Haiti and Cuba not have in common with D.R., Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados? 1. Poorest in the world 2. Black and brown peoples 3. Granted freedoms 4. Taken Freedoms 5. Embargoes and shaky diplomacy and international relations 6. Debt, dependency and non-competitiveness 7. Formerly colonized Options: A. 2, 5, 6 and 7 B. 1, 4 and 5 C. 1 only 3 D. 3 and 4 E. 1, 3, and 4 F. All of the above The Answer Reveals A Complex Tapestry of Independence and Adversity With its vibrant cultures, rich histories, and diverse peoples, the Caribbean region has long been a subject of fascination and study. Within this complex tapestry of Caribbean thought lies a brain teaser, a puzzle that invites contemplation and analysis. This quiz, exploring the nuanced differences among various Caribbean nations, catalyzes deeper reflection on the socio-political landscapes of these countries. At the heart of this brain teaser lies a question: What sets Haiti and Cuba apart from the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados? The options presented delve into a myriad of factors, from economic status to historical legacies, shedding light on the unique trajectories of these nations.Upon closer examination, the correct answer emerges 1, 4, and 5. This selection illuminates key distinctions between Haiti, Cuba, and their counterparts. Firstly, Haiti and Cuba are the poorest nations in the Caribbean, grappling with economic challenges exacerbated by external pressures such as embargoes and diplomatic complexities. Unlike their counterparts, who have experienced varying degrees of economic stability, Haiti and Cuba find themselves ensnared in a cycle of poverty and dependency. Secondly, the notion of granted freedoms versus taken freedoms emerges as a pivotal theme. While countries like Jamaica, Trinidad, and Barbados have navigated the complexities of post-colonial governance and attained a degree of political autonomy, Haiti and Cuba have a tumultuous history of fighting for their independence. Yet, despite their efforts to chart their own destinies, they remain ensnared in geopolitical struggles, their sovereignty undermined by external interventions.Thirdly, embargoes, shaky diplomacy, and international relations serve as formidable barriers to progress for Haiti and Cuba. Unlike their counterparts, who have forged diplomatic alliances and pursued avenues of economic growth, Haiti and Cuba find themselves marginalized on the global stage, grappling with the repercussions of contentious international policies. The crux of the matter lies in understanding the complexities of Caribbean thought and the diverse experiences of its constituent...Excerpt Ends. Submitted by Prof. Renaldo McKenzie.

In an unexpected turn, during a recent appearance on the 'All Together' podcast, previous President Donald Trump expressed some words of appreciation about President Joe Biden. He hinted that one should not dismiss Biden lightly when it comes to debates. 'I believe he could prove to be a formidable challenger in debate', alluded the former President, evoking a sense of surprise among the hosts. Trump went further and cited an instance from the past where Biden outshone Paul Ryan, a renowned politician. He highlighted how Biden, a seasoned debater, took on Paul Ryan effectively. He narrated how Ryan was constantly seen gulping down water and eventually ended up receiving a solid defeat from Biden. The former president made it clear that he's not going to underrate Biden. However, remember this is the same Donald Trump who once criticized President Biden's debating capabilities harshly. 'Dishonest Joe Biden is the POOREST debater I have ever experienced - He can't string two sentences coherently!' he once declared. He even went on to suggest that there should be more than two debates for the sheer thrill of it and despite Biden's apparent discomfort with large gatherings. Some observers interpret this shift in language as an indication that expectations are set incredibly low for the president. In their view, even if President Biden merely manages to stay awake throughout the debate, it would be counted as a triumph. The shift in Trump's tone, they argue, reflects this low bar.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With GDP per capita of just $2 per day, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is one of the poorest, if not the poorest nation on Earth. However, this does not have to be the case. The country has massive deposits of rare earth minerals including Cobalt, which is an essential input to the production of lithium-ion batteries. The mineral resources are estimated to be worth $24 trillion. So why is the DRC so poor? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We investigate Oxfam's claim that “since 2020, the five richest men in the world have seen their fortunes more than double, while almost five billion people have seen their wealth fall”. With the help of Johan Norberg, Historian and Author of ideas and Felix Salmon, Financial Correspondent at Axios, we explore the figures behind the wealth of the richest and uncover what it really tells us about the world's financial markets. And Charles Kenny, senior fellow at the Centre for Global Development in Washington DC, helps us unpick why, when looking at the world's poorest people, measurements of wealth don't always tell us what we really need to know.
