“We were the first to lightweight our bottles. So, if you think about a typical bottle of soda, it's about 27 grams of plastic. Our bottles, this year, I think they're coming in at 6.6 grams. So it's incredibly lightweight. I always say, you know, it's a Niagara bottle if it crinkles…We've created label-less bottles so they're easier to recycle. …And, we're now running lines that are in entirely recycled content. So we are very committed to creating bottles that that do not harm the planet, and also that allow for the most circular of products while we also think about what the bottle of the future might look like.” Ann Canela on Electric Ladies Podcast The International Bottled Water Association reported recently that 16.4 billion gallons of bottled water were sold in the United States in 2024.That's a 2.9% increase over 2023 – not to mention all the other bottled drinks we consume. Drinking water is good for you. But there's the plastic to deal with. What responsibility does the bottling company take for all that plastic and their role in society? Listen to Ann Canela, Head of Niagara Cares and Director of Corporate Giving at Niagara Water in this fascinating conversation with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson. You'll hear about: ● How bottled water gets to your local market, ● How Niagara Water dramatically reduced the plastic content of its bottles and is taking steps to improve recycling. ● Where corporate philanthropy is focused at this tumultuous moment when so many government grants were abruptly cancelled. ● Plus, career advice, such as: “I think the best thing you can do is define you first….what your values are at this time, and have been for probably since you were a child. And some definition to what your purpose is in the world….The second one I think is.…I would just encourage, especially midcareer women to think, ‘what if the things that were right for you, you knew they were right for you because they were easy, not hard?' Because they came to you in a way that felt aligned versus you're scrapping and fighting for them.…Hard work is a core of success, but it's not the only way to get there.…So what if we considered things that came to us and were at our feet as the right path for us to go down?” Ann Canela on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

Pattie was a strong woman through and through. She learned everything she knew about raising and caring for animals and growing crops from her parents and the land she grew up on. Because of her experience on the farm plus her ability to drive and operate farm machinery, etc, she was available to help out her country during WWII. This enabled her to be active during the Land Army, in New Zealand. Josh shares how she had a wonderful sense of humor (Irish family roots), taught Josh how to sew, cook, play cards, knit and so much more. Josh willingly admits that he was a mama's boy and as he says he "hung onto her apron strings."As Josh was getting ready to move away from home for a new job, he was desperate to share a very personal story with his mother. She'd already survived breast cancer shortly after her was born, but now the cancer was back. She refused chemo and radiation, so Josh was afraid this might me the last time he'd see his mother. Just as he was about to go out the door, he spoke to his mother and revealed what he'd been hiding inside for decades. She was un perplexed and finished his statement before he had a chance to share what he wanted to say. That was just a little bit of the magic of Pattie.She regularly took care of her neighbors. Whether because of an illness or just in need of company, she was always there to help other. Pattie was also very curious, especially regarding her friends and neighbors in this rural farming area. Josh shares some very funny stories about the phone in his house.The work that Josh is doing with "The Litter Club Network is so important. He's getting the community involved not only in Phuket, Thailand but also in Malaysia and Singapore.

It's easy to forget about food in the fridge or the cabinets, leading it to go bad. Oftentimes, it just goes right in the trash, and when you add your food waste to everyone else's, plus all the waste from hospitals, restaurants, cafeterias, schools, and other institutions, it adds up fast! Massachusetts has had a commercial food waste ban in place since 2014 to try and cut down on the negative impacts of this food waste, and a new report shows the Commonwealth's efforts are showing success, both economically and environmentally. MassDEP Commissioner Bonnie Heiple returns to the show to break down the report with Nichole and talk about the state's future food waste goals.

“In the next 25 years, the world will need more copper than in all of human history.”Amendment - I said 3.2 billion kg of copper in opening question, I should have said 320 million kg. In this episode, journalist and author Vince Beiser returns to the podcast to discuss his book Power Metal, a sobering look at the metals that make modern civilization possible — and the extraordinary cost of extracting them.We cover the story of copper — the wire of empire. Beiser reveals why humanity will need more copper in the next 25 years than we've used in all of history, and how that quest is reshaping geopolitics, the environment, and our very ideas of progress. From Chile's drought-stricken Atacama mines to the e-waste yards of Lagos, Nigeria, we follow the real people and places behind our “clean-energy” future — and the dirty truths that power it.We also unpack the rise of deep-sea mining, the billionaires behind it, and the tensions between state power, corporate ambition, and the planet's limits. Along the way we meet Robert Friedland, Gerard Barron, Dan Gertler, and a cast of characters who prove that the world still runs on digging — and that the future will too.If you liked The World in a Grain or stories about how our material world shapes our moral one, this conversation will hit home.Topics: Resource wars, clean-tech paradox, deep-sea mining, copper shortage, China's industrial strategy, EV economics, and how to reduce demand without going backwards.

Raglan's Xtreme Zero waste recyling centre is banning cast-offs from the China based fast fashion giant Shein. It says the poor quality and the sheer volumme Shein garments mean its a real challenge to sell them in their recycle retail store. Shein clothes tend to be made from synthetic fabrics, and testing has shown some contain harmful chemical like formaldehyde and are sold for extremely low prices. It's also alleged some Shein staff are working 75 hour weeks and getting just one day off a month. Jemma Hovelmeier from Xtreme Zero Waste in Raglan spoke to Lisa Owen.

Earlier this year, Washington became the seventh state in the US to pass an Extended Producer Responsibility Bill for packaging. The bill, SB 5284—The Recycling Reform Act—was supported by Upstream and civic and elected partners around Washington state, and includes something rarely featured in EPR bills: best practices for reuse. In this episode, host Brooking Gatewood digs in with WA State Representative Liz Berry and McKenna Morrigan of the city of Seattle on how this bill got passed, what it means for recycling and reuse systems incentives in Washington State, and what other states can learn from it to start standardizing EPR and normalizing reuse requirements.

Dr. Stephen Beaton is Co-founder and CEO of Circularity Fuels, which develops compact reactors that turn waste carbon streams into high-value fuels and chemicals. Rather than compete with fossil fuels from the start, Stephen identified high-purity methane for lab-grown diamonds as a beachhead market—where Circularity's product is 80–90% cheaper than incumbents while proving the core technology needed for clean liquid fuels.Stephen earned a chemistry PhD at Oxford and built deep expertise in synthetic fuels during his U.S. Air Force career, including overseeing jet fuel quality control in the Middle East and launching the Air Force's e-fuels program. His insight: build a fuels company that doesn't begin with fuel.Today, Circularity Fuels operates demonstration reactors in diamond facilities and is scaling toward biogas-to-SAF production using the same reactor platform. The company has raised $3M in venture funding, including from DCVC, plus $5M in grants from ARPA-E, NSF, and the California Energy Commission.
