Lets talk Boston hoops.

It'll be hard for anyone in Louisville to forget last Tuesday, Nov. 4, and the crash of UPS Flight 2976.Around 5:15 p.m. that day, on what was shaping up to be a beautiful autumn evening, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 bound for Honolulu crashed during takeoff from Louisville, igniting a massive fire and creating an enormous smoke plume visible across the city.It's been hard to talk about anything else since then. So on this week's Access Louisville podcast we discuss how we reported the story, including its impact on business. On the show, LBF Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett is on the show to recount his conversation with Sean Garber, CEO of Grade A Auto Parts & Recycling, which was hit by the aircraft and debris during the crash. Hearing what happened at the business was one of the toughest interviews he'd ever done, Stinnett said on the show. We also discuss how important Worldport is to UPS' business and the company's response so far, including a statement from its CEO Carol Tome in Atlanta. More coverage from the Business First team this week: UPS identifies crew killed in jet crash as death toll risesPower outages, road closures persist near airport Bar spared in UPS crashFeds begin probe after deadly UPS jet crashAt about 6 p.m. Thursday, airport officials announced that runway 17R/35L (the runway used by UPS Flight 2976), or West Runway, was back open, meaning the airport (SDF) was again fully operational. For those seeking assistance, the city has set up a Family Assistance Center that can be reached at 1-800-631-0604.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

In this new episode from GMS Podcasts, host Jamie Dalzell is joined by Simos Dimitriou, Head of the GMS Dubai Office, to discuss how global economic pressures, shifting currencies, and fluctuating steel prices are shaping the ship recycling markets across the subcontinent. As oil prices slide and OPEC+ announces supply cutbacks, recyclers in India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan face a stultifying market with tight supply and hesitant owners. From currency challenges and HKC yard compliance to creative deal structures in Dubai, this conversation offers real-time intelligence on how the region is adapting as 2025 closes. Key Highlights: Current ship recycling prices and sentiment in India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan How currency volatility and Iranian steel imports are reshaping price competition India's reliability through HKC-certified yards and compliance leadership The slow pace in Bangladesh and pre-election uncertainty Pakistan's pricing correction and operational constraints Dubai's evolving role as a hub for structured and leaseback recycling deals Forecast for early 2026 and expected tonnage flow Despite the slowdown, disciplined owners and compliant yards continue to anchor confidence in the region's green ship recycling ecosystem.

Khalil Radi ist zurück im Podcast und bringt ein Update mit, das sich gewaschen hat. Vor gut einem Jahr sammelte die Mach dis Ding-Community gemeinsam mit Khalil über 36'000 Franken, um in Ghana einen Recycling-Lastwagen zu finanzieren. Ziel: Eine lokale Kreislaufwirtschaft aufbauen, die selbstragend funktioniert, ohne dauerhafte Spenden. Heute ist der LKW vier Monate im Einsatz, spart mehr Diesel als gedacht, hat eine grössere Region erschlossen als geplant und ist zu 48 % eigenfinanziert. Bis Weihnachten soll das Projekt komplett selbsttragend sein. Doch das ist nur der Anfang: • In Ghana soll eine neue Recyclinganlage mit Schulbank-Produktion entstehen, aus gesammeltem Plastik. • In Nicaragua wurde dank einer 50'000-Franken-Privatspende eine eigene Export-Anlage aufgebaut, um sich vom lokalen Monopolisten unabhängig zu machen. • In Indien startet demnächst ein Pilotprojekt mit einem Kleintransporter, um „Plastik gegen Essen“ und „Plastik gegen Einkommen“ auch in den Slums von Mumbai umzusetzen.

Wie lassen sich Raketen oder Teile davon wiederverwenden? Durch "Recycling" will Europa Satelliten günstiger und umweltverträglicher ins All bringen - und so auch SpaceX Konkurrenz machen. Das amerikanische Unternehmen nutzt Raketenteile bereits mehrfach.

„Ich habe bereits mein Gesellenstück aus einer alten Eichenzarge gebaut“, erzählt Jonas Dühr. „Und für die Massivholzteile meines Meisterstücks habe ich eine alte Birnbaum-Tischplatte genutzt.“ Recycling, Umfunktionierung, Wiederverwendung, Reparatur: Schon lange beschäftigt sich der Düsseldorfer Tischlermeister und Gestalter im Handwerk mit den Aspekten der Kreislaufwirtschaft. Für sein 2023 gegründetes Unternehmen – die Werkstatt für zirkuläres Handwerk – hat der 32-Jährige sie zum Leitmotiv erkoren. Für diese Folge der Lauschwerkstatt haben wir Jonas Dühr in seiner Werkstatt für zirkuläres Handwerk besucht und mit ihm über seine Motivation und die Herangehensweise an seine Arbeit gesprochen. Außerdem erklärt Christoph Speiser-Tochtrop vom Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt und Energie, was sich überhaupt hinter dem Begriff Kreislaufwirtschaft verbirgt.

In this Week 44 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, the global ship recycling industry closes October on a haunting note as weak fundamentals, volatile currencies, and scarce tonnage continue to shadow the sub-continent markets. From India and Bangladesh to Pakistan and Turkey, sentiment stays fragile while inflation trends, oil movements, and new HKC developments keep recyclers on edge. Global Market Overview October ended with more tricks than treats. The Baltic Dry Index slipped 1.3 percent week-on-week and nearly 8 percent for the month, marking its first monthly drop since April. Oil eased almost 1 percent to around USD 60.67 per barrel as OPEC+ announced fresh Q1 2026 cutbacks. A temporary U.S.–China trade truce brought brief relief, but volatility and policy uncertainty persist. Limited vessel supply kept yards mostly idle, with buyers hesitant to commit amid falling plate prices and a widening two-tier market for sanctioned ships. Bangladesh Chattogram showed faint sparks as a few hungry recyclers chased prompt deals, but domestic steel demand failed to ignite. Local plate levels slipped USD 3 to USD 529.50 per ton, and the taka weakened to BDT 122.37 per USD. HKC certifications continue to climb, with 21 yards expected to be approved by year-end, a bright spot in an otherwise subdued market. India Alang faced another quiet stretch as the rupee dropped 1.25 percent to INR 88.70. Steel prices ended flat, while discounted sanctioned vessels pushed legitimate bids lower, unsettling buyers and widening the pricing gap. Inflation remains low at 1.54 percent, hinting at potential relief through cheaper financing if confidence returns. Pakistan Gadani recyclers endured renewed “imports ire.” Cheap Iranian steel and a lack of HKC-compliant yards kept activity muted despite plate values roughly USD 230 above India's. The PKR closed at 283.17 per USD as margins tightened and sentiment weakened. Turkey Aliaga continued to face a supply pinch. Local recyclers raised offers slightly to attract owners, but the lira slid to TRY 42.06 and inflation rose above 33 percent. With few vessels arriving, operational pressure remains heavy. Market Sentiment As we sail into November, recyclers confront familiar headwinds: weak demand, currency stress, HKC uncertainty, and a vanishing pipeline of ships. Whether markets rebound or remain haunted will define the rest of 2025.

In this Week 43 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review another subdued week in the global ship recycling markets as currencies fluctuated, steel plate prices softened, and sentiment across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey remained weak. Global Market Overview Markets slowed across the board as the Baltic Dry Index slipped about 3.2% to its lowest level since early October. Oil prices found mild traction, firming to USD 62.14 per barrel, up roughly 1% on expectations of a possible China–U.S. trade deal. Inflation in the United States rose to 3%, while sanctions and tariff pressures added further uncertainty. Recycling prices across the Sub-continent continued to fall, with levels below USD 400 per LDT now widely discussed. Supply of tonnage remained extremely limited, leaving yards mostly idle despite steady freight markets. Bangladesh Chattogram showed sporadic activity with a few larger LDT units drawing attention, including LNG carriers PUTERI NILAM and PUTERI DELIMA sold en bloc on private terms, and bulker MONICA P (7,779 LDT) sold at USD 380 per LT LDT “as is” Belawan. The Taka weakened to BDT 122.35, while local steel plate slipped another USD 3 per ton. Elections scheduled for February 2026 continue to shape local sentiment. India Alang endured another quiet week as Diwali holidays passed with little recovery. Steel plate prices remained near USD 389 per ton, and the rupee closed at INR 87.54. More than 100 HKC-certified yards remain empty, as prices for clean tonnage fall below USD 400 per LDT and the arrival of shadow-fleet vessels further depresses sentiment. Pakistan After recent optimism, Gadani slowed again due to an influx of cheap Iranian scrap steel. Local recyclers hesitated to offer on limited tonnage as plate prices held near USD 614 per ton. The rupee weakened to PKR 283.50 per USD. Larger dry units remain preferred, while smaller vessels are avoided amid certification delays. Turkey Little movement was recorded in Aliaga as the Lira slipped to TRY 42.08 per USD and local steel values remained largely unchanged. Offers stayed within USD 250–270 per LDT as sentiment stayed weak. Market Sentiment With October ending, global freight remains firm and oil prices higher, but the recycling sector continues to face record-low supply, fading prices, and growing uncertainty.

PICVISA, a Spanish company specializing in artificial vision, robotics, optical sorting and artificial intelligence for the sorting of recyclable materials, will once again take part in ECOMONDO, the leading international trade fair for the circular economy, held in Rimini (Italy) from November 5 to 8. From its stand A3 506, PICVISA will demonstrate how its AI-driven technologies are redefining efficiency and precision in the separation, sorting, and recovery processes of recycling plants around the world. Glass: New AI for detecting dark or labeled glass In the glass sector, PICVISA is launching a new turnkey project in Brazil, strengthening its international leadership with its ECOGLASS system, now featuring artificial intelligence capable of detecting dark or labeled glass. This technological improvement optimizes the recovery of glass that is difficult to identify, ensuring higher purity of recycled material and reducing product losses. Optical sorting, Textile: Advanced sorting and new plants across Europe In the textile field, PICVISA continues advancing in post-consumer waste automation, with the first automatic textile sorting plant in Lipor (Portugal) and new facilities under development in Italy, France, and Spain. Its ECOSORT TEXTILE technology, based on hyperspectral imaging and artificial intelligence, is capable of distinguishing between knitted and woven fabrics, as well as identifying complex materials or fiber blends. Now, it also offers the option of robotized feeding, which automates the handling and placement of garments onto the conveyor belt, enabling a fully automated and more efficient sorting process - from material input to final separation. Plastics: New ECOFLAKE lines and black-plastic detection In plastics recycling, PICVISA is expanding with new ECOFLAKE lines in Spain and the United States, designed to process unique materials such as shoe soles and shredded waste from WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment). In parallel, the company is preparing to launch new AI software for black-plastic detection, enabling recycling plants to classify materials that have so far been invisible to conventional optical sensors. Metals: The new Eldan Sorting optical line In the metals sector, PICVISA has developed for Eldan Recycling the new Eldan Sorting optical classification line, comprising the SPS (Small Purpose Sorter) and MPS (Multiple Purpose Sorter) systems. Both systems, designed and engineered by PICVISA, solve key challenges in the automated sorting of cables, e-waste, non-ferrous metals, and stainless steel, delivering a step change in precision, speed, and material recovery. The Eldan Sorting solutions will be showcased both at PICVISA's stand (A3 506) and at Eldan Recycling's adjacent stand, where the full range of joint solutions for metal and complex-material recycling will be presented. Innovation for an intelligent circular economy With these developments, PICVISA reinforces its commitment to technological innovation in service of the circular economy. Its goal: to improve traceability, purity, and energy efficiency in recycling processes, turning waste into new resources. At ECOMONDO 2025, visitors will discover PICVISA's flagship solutions - ECOGLASS, ECOPACK, ECOCLIP, ECOSORT TEXTILE, and ECOFLAKE - and learn how the integration of computer vision, robotics, and AI is shaping the future of smart recycling.

Toxic Exposure: The Monsanto Roundup Trials, and the Search for Justice," reveals the dark side of the world's most widely used herbicide. Jessica Aldridge interviewed Dr. Chadi Nabhan in 2023, who offered his expert insights on the link between glyphosate and cancer, the landmark legal battles against Monsanto, and the ongoing struggle for environmental justice. Tune in for a compelling narrative that exposes the failures of regulatory agencies and the courage of individuals standing up to agrochemical giants. For years, Monsanto declared that their product Roundup, the world's most widely used weed killer, was safe. But in 2015, scientific studies concluded that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is probably carcinogenic. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Monsanto disagreed with the findings, as scientists worked to understand the link between glyphosate and cancer. Dr. Chadi Nabhan's book, Toxic Exposure [https://chadinabhan.com/mybooks/], tells the true story of his role as an expert physician witness who testified in multiple state and federal trials against Monsanto. His book recounts the heartbreaking stories of numerous patients who developed the cancer non-Hodgkin lymphoma, after regularly using Roundup on yards and school grounds. Monsanto is now owned by Bayer, one of the largest agrochemical companies in the world. These companies and the EPA downplayed the health dangers of Roundup and the active ingredient glyphosate even after Monsanto lost numerous court cases (owing billions in judgements) and settled out of court for more than $11 Billion for more than 100K patients. In this interview we discuss the history of Roundup, the dangers of glyphosate, the trial stories and verdicts, and what the everyday person can do to fight for justice against this agricultural behemoth. Dr. Chadi Nabhan is an expert in lymphoid malignancies and treating and diagnosing cancers. He is author of Toxic Exposure: The True Story behind the Monsanto Trials and the Search for Justice [http://www.chadinabhan.com]. He received his medical degree from Damascus University in Syria. After performing basic science research at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School, he completed his internal medicine residency as well as an MBA in Healthcare Management at Loyola University in Chicago. Dr. Nabhan maintains active medical licenses in five states, and has over 300 peer-reviewed articles and abstracts. He is also a sought-after speaker, moderator, facilitator, and the creator and host of his own podcast, "Healthcare Unfiltered" [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjiJPTpIJdIiukcq0UaMFsA]. Jessica Aldridge, Co-Host and Producer of EcoJustice Radio, is an environmental educator, community organizer, and 15-year waste industry leader. She is a co-founder of SoCal 350, organizer for ReusableLA, and founded Adventures in Waste. She is a former professor of Recycling and Resource Management at Santa Monica College, and an award recipient of the international 2021 Women in Sustainability Leadership and the 2016 inaugural Waste360, 40 Under 40.

How often do innovators ask themselves if someone really needs their products? In this episode of the DMI podcast, host Will Francis speaks with Laurier Mandin, founder of Graphos Product and author of I Need That. With over 30 years helping innovators bring ideas to life, Laurier reveals how brands can turn customer wants into needs by focusing on empathy, validation, and true problem-solving. Laurier shares lessons from working with sustainable B2B products like recycled wind-turbine materials and explains why many innovators still skip the crucial step of validating whether anyone needs what they're building. He also discusses the psychology behind purchase decisions, our “dog brain” versus “tank brain”, and why clarity and simplicity in messaging always win.Laurier's Top 3 Tips for MarketersValidate properly: Test your product with real money or real commitment, not just surveys.Go beyond MVP to “MWP” (Minimum Wow Product): Build something that makes people say wow, not just it works.Focus on empathy and clarity: Cut the clutter, connect emotionally, and make the need unmistakable.The Ahead of the Game podcast is brought to you by the Digital Marketing Institute and is available on ⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube, Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠all other podcast platforms.And if you enjoyed this episode please leave a review so others can find us.

“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.   You'll also like: ·       Helping Communities Recycle More: Keefe Harrison, President of The Recycling Partnership ·       America Recycles Day: Emily Tipaldo, U.S. Plastics Pact ·       Solutions to Our Waste Problem: Melissa Modica, Waste Harmonics ·       Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Movies & Television Productions: Emellie O'Brien, President of Earth Angel – who is taking a lot more than plastic bottles out of movie productions. ·       Business Leaders Bridging The Gap – Women business leaders from The Earth Day Women's Summit on the unique role of business in addressing the climate crisis.   Subscribe to our newsletter to receive our podcasts, blog, events and special coaching offers.   Thanks for subscribing on Apple Podcasts or iHeartRadio and leaving us a review!

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. Here's more about Josh O'Neil:I'm Josh O'Neil, a Certified Green Project Manager (GPM-b), sustainability advocate, and experienced public speaker & voice coach dedicated to driving meaningful change and environmental stewardship.
