Lorenzo Fiori reports that climate change is threatening Italian food production, particularly cheese, due to drought and heat waves in the south, especially the Puglia region, where stressed cows are reducing milk production and impacting specialty cheeses like mozzarella and burrata. Milk cannot be shipped from the north because local water and hay are essential to the unique flavor of southern cheese. Fiori emphasizes that Italian food is a famous brand precisely because it belongs to its territory, criticizing pre-prepared sauces found in Brussels as inauthentic carbonara, which must be made fresh. In Milan, Christmas preparations are underway, with shop windows decorated festively and street lights scheduled to be switched on December 7th. 1947

A study found that alcohol raises dementia risk at every level of drinking, overturning decades of claims that moderate use protects your brain Even light drinking damages neurons, disrupts mitochondrial energy production, and accelerates brain aging, showing there is no safe dose for cognitive health Genetic data revealed that for every measurable increase in alcohol consumption, dementia risk rose by about 15%, with the danger extending across all age and ancestry groups Alcohol and linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils follow the same toxic pathway in your liver, creating harmful aldehydes that cause mitochondrial damage and fatty liver disease, both of which impair brain function Reducing or eliminating alcohol and cutting seed oils to under 5 grams per day — ideally 2 grams — support liver recovery, restore mitochondrial function, and protect long-term brain health

In this episode of the Volunteer Nation Podcast, Tobi Johnson breaks down why it's one of the smartest, most powerful tools nonprofits can use to attract more aligned, motivated volunteers. Often, the issue isn't a lack of interest from the community; it's that your communication isn't connecting, isn't clear, or isn't consistent across platforms. Tobi walks through the three core areas to examine when evaluating your volunteer recruitment efforts and explains how even small refinements can dramatically increase inquiries, improve onboarding, and strengthen your brand presence. By the end, you'll see your volunteer recruitment ecosystem through fresh eyes and know exactly where the gaps (and opportunities) are hiding. Full show notes: 189.

There's encouraging evidence that the "cool" component of vaping among young people is shifting. The 2024/25 New Zealand Health Survey shows smoking prevalence is at 6.8% – a slight decline on last year, with 12% of adult Kiwis vaping daily. Associate Health Minister Casey Costello told Mike Hosking the Government's cracked down on enforcement for vaping that wasn't in place before. She says the last two years have seen youth vaping coming down and the drive to keep under 18s out of the vaping environment is paying dividends.

One in three Europeans cannot correctly define cystitis as a bladder infection, with younger adults showing particularly poor awareness of these common conditions While UTIs can occur anywhere in the urinary tract, cystitis affects only the bladder; pyelonephritis involves kidneys and requires urgent care Studies show up to 85% of UTI diagnoses may be incorrect, often confusing harmless bacterial colonization with actual infection requiring treatment Mild uncomplicated cases often resolve with hydration and symptom management; overuse of antibiotics drives dangerous resistance and should be avoided when possible Reducing factory-farmed meat, practicing proper hygiene, using methylene blue or cranberry products, and getting sunlight exposure can help prevent recurrent infections

It's the BMJ's annual climate issue - and in this episode, we'll be hearing about more ways in which climate mitigation is good for health.   Firstly, climate change is fuelling conflict, and exacerbating the impact it has on fragile healthcare systems. Andy Haines, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and Barbora Sedova, from Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, discuss how climate and conflict intersect, and what they think needs to be done to combat it.   “Car spreading”, the recent tendency for cars to become bigger and heavier is not only harming the climate, but it's also harming pedestrians.  Anthony Laverty, associate professor of public health at Imperial College London, and trauma surgeon Cleo Kenington explain why SUVs are more lethal in accidents, and why France is bucking the trend in sales.   Finally, Jocalyn Clark, the BMJ's international editor joins us to talk about women's health innovation and why tech bros aren't the people to be leading it.   Reading list:   The climate issue: Brazil and the climate crisis   Tackling the complex links between climate change, conflict, and health   Reducing the harms from ever larger cars   Transforming women's health through innovation

Why does it feel like screens are stealing our kids' imagination, our attention spans, and even our peace at home? Why are so many families exhausted, disconnected, and overwhelmed by technology—even though we know it's supposed to make life easier? If you've ever wondered how to break the cycle of device dependence without guilt, shame, or overwhelm, this episode is for you.Today's guest, S. S. Coulter—or Shannon—is leading a screen-lite movement that's changing how families reconnect with real life. Through Planet Fassa, she empowers kids to rediscover creativity, curiosity, and childhood joy through books, fun activities, and simple daily habits. She also equips adults to Break the Chain of tech overload, helping them model the confidence, presence, and creativity we want the next generation to inherit. Her work comes to life in this conversation, where she shares practical solutions, real-world stories, and the neuroscience behind why screens are so addictive—as heard throughout the episodeGet ready for an honest, hopeful, and deeply important conversation about reclaiming connection, rebuilding imagination, and taking back our families from the constant pull of screens.Quotes:"I'm trying to get people to make their phones their servants versus their masters.""Our best memories are when we're with people—you don't make your favorite memories staring at a screen.""It's not our fault that we're addicted to screens—they're made to addict us."Actionable Takeaways:Set daily screen-free times for both parents and children; be intentional in modeling the behavior you want to see in your family.Swap some habitual screen time with offline activities—choose simple, low-material tasks to spark imagination and creativity.Reconfigure your device settings (use black-and-white or red-light filters, enable "bedtime mode," or create physical distance from devices) to make phone usage less addictive.Reflect and discuss as a family: “What are our favorite memories, and how many of those happened on a screen?”Connect with your community or peer group to share successful screen-free activity ideas and support each other in building new habits.Conclusion:S. S. Coulter reminds us that reclaiming our families from screen overload isn't about perfection—it's about intention. When we understand why technology hooks us and how it shapes our kids' developing brains, we can finally take back control with confidence, compassion, and simple daily choices. Shannon's mission proves that imagination can be rebuilt, connection can be restored, and joy can return to our homes one small habit at a time. Her message is a powerful call to lead by example, create healthier rhythms, and give our children the childhood—and future—they truly deserve.

Dave Brisbin 11.16.25 Have you noticed that people fight? Silly wabbit. Of course. Ever stopped to wonder why? Fear. Always fear. Even if it doesn't feel like afraid-ness, unconscious, overriding concern for personal survival drives us fearward in a zero-sum world where there's only so much oil in the ground, where the resources absolutely necessary for survival are finite. It's basic envy and jealousy: fear of not getting what someone else has, fear of not keeping what we already do. Fights are made of this. No fear, no fight. Then why do religious people fight? Spirituality by definition is infinite, yes? Unlimited resource, enough for all. So when Christians fight, debate, defend, excommunicate, and they certainly do, they are saying they don't really believe in infinite spiritual resources, or at least that the spiritual does not override the finite where we really live. Fighting Christians don't trust that the perfect love Jesus lived and died to make real for us is enough. There must still be something we need to acquire or perform to gain the acceptance that is our eternal survival. More revealing: how do Christians fight? With scripture. Always with scripture. Any fight among Christians is a fight over the book. We're the people of the book. Even before the early church had the book, it fought over what should be in the book, and once it had the book, fought to defend and enforce it. Five hundred years ago, Western Reformers went even further, saying the book was the only source of revelation from God, that to literally understand the text was to understand God—or at least the terms of eternal survival. Reducing faith to rational belief has put Westerners on a collision course with an Eastern text that is made of entirely different stuff. The ancients who wrote our book were not even trying to answer literal questions to satisfy our craving for certainty. The bible is the map of a journey to the experience of infinite resource, unlimited love. When we stop defending it, asking it questions it won't answer, let it ask us who is asking…it can begin pointing us to trust what we can never understand—only experience.

The cost of living crisis has seen food prices increase by as much as 65% according to the Office for National Statistics meaning that the average British household spends an extra £600 pounds a year on food. But considering that there is also about 4.5 million tonnes of food waste annually the possibility of reducing wasted food as well as bills has never been more needed. Reducing your bill at the checkout comes down largely to planning. Getting organised about how, when and where you buy your food as well as how you store and cook it is essential. For starters buying in bulk can really reduce costs. How can I reduce the amount I spend on food? How can I reduce my food waste? How can technology help? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to Cassandra Garber, Chief Sustainability Officer of General Motors, one of the world's largest car companies.  The interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview CSOs around the world about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape. The sustainability space has been through enormous transformation in recent years and CSOs have a front-row seat to this evolution.  Transportation is considered one of the hard-to-abate sectors because most forms of transportation burn fossil fuels for energy. In the episode, Cassandra outlines GM's commitment to a zero-emissions, all-electric future and how the company is breaking down barriers to electric vehicle adoption — what she calls the "three Cs" of cost, charging infrastructure, and the perception that EVs are complicated.   "Reducing those tailpipe emissions and focusing on EV adoption makes our business strategy and sustainability strategy incredibly aligned," Cassandra says. "That is by far what we're focused on the most: How are we breaking down the barriers to EV adoption because it's good for business and society."  This interview took place on the sidelines of The Nest Climate Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast was an official media partner during Climate Week NYC 2025.  Listen to other episodes in the CSO Insights podcast series:  CSO Insights: Singapore's biggest bank on the 'business imperative' of climate action  CSO Insights: How a big Malaysian bank balances climate, nature, human rights and economic inclusion  CSO Insights: How sustainability pullback is playing out in Southeast Asia  Listen to our episode What to expect from COP30 Learn about the Global Carbon Markets Conference from S&P Global Commodity Insights taking place in Barcelona shortly after COP30.

Ari Paparo and Eric Franchi sit down with Paul Bannister, Chief Strategy Officer of Raptive, unpack new research on how audiences respond to AI-written content, why trust changes depending on labeling and experience, and what shifting traffic patterns mean for publishers. The conversation moves from consumer behavior to the realities of the open web, the role of strong brands, and how AI tools are reshaping ad operations. Takeaways Readers trust AI content less when labeling is unclear. Suspicion of AI drops trust more than actual AI writing. People struggle to identify whether content is AI or human. Heavy AI users become highly skeptical of AI content. Traffic declines hit factual verticals harder than lifestyle. Strong brands cushion publishers from search volatility. Smaller sites dependent on SEO face the greatest risk. Reducing ad clutter can improve both outcomes and revenue. AI tools are speeding up slow ad ops and campaign setup. CTV continues to drive most of the open web growth.

Fatty liver disease (FLD) develops when fat builds up in liver cells, straining an organ vital for energy, metabolism, and detoxification. It is now the leading chronic liver disease worldwide and affects four in 10 U.S. adults A new study in the Journal of Translational Gastroenterology found higher urinary arsenic levels were strongly associated with a greater risk of FLD in the U.S. population Arsenic disrupts liver health by driving oxidative stress, impairing mitochondria, activating fat-storing pathways, and interfering with glucose regulation, all of which accelerate fat buildup and insulin resistance Rice and drinking water are the main everyday sources of arsenic exposure, with contamination often exceeding health-based safety limits and posing risks even at "low" levels Reducing seed oils and alcohol, improving choline intake, and avoiding arsenic-contaminated foods and beverages are key steps to protect your liver and lower your toxic burden

Everyday exposure to pesticides, even from conventionally grown fruits and vegetables, disrupts sperm function and reduces fertility in otherwise healthy men Researchers found that higher levels of pesticide residues in urine were linked to slower, less motile sperm, showing that even non-occupational exposure harms reproductive health Organophosphate pesticides damage sperm by disrupting calcium balance, impairing mitochondrial energy production, and oxidizing cell membranes, which reduces both movement and viability Global data confirm these effects, revealing consistent patterns of reduced sperm motility, concentration, and normal shape across men from multiple countries, even when hormone levels remain normal Reducing exposure through organic foods, filtered water, regular exercise, and sauna use helps your body eliminate stored toxins, restore mitochondrial energy, and rebuild sperm health within a few months

How's your self-talk? If you're like most folks, it's probably not as kind as you'd like. In this episode, we'll talk about the power of positive self-talk and gratitude. We'll get into how the chatter of those more critical self-talk "voices" can be navigated and even the positives behind them (with some attention to Internal Family Systems perspective). We'll also guide you through some power strategies to make your self-talk kinder. A few of these include 'Grateful Self-Talk' and the concept of 'distanced self-talk' or 'illeism,' which involves speaking to yourself in the second or third person to create psychological distance and foster self-compassion. After listening, be sure to give these practices a try. They're powerful and well worth your time. Incorporating more positive self-talk is a real pathway to better mental health and wellbeing.  About: The Joy Lab Podcast blends science and soul to help you cope better with stress, ease anxiety, and uplift mood.

Today I'm joined by April Davis, founder of LUMA Luxury Matchmaking—and yes, she's married to a divorce attorney, which gives her a razor-sharp lens on what actually lasts. We dig into modern dating beyond the apps: values vs. chemistry, paradox of choice, readiness, standards, gender roles, and commitment—so real love stops feeling impossible and starts feeling inevitable. 3 Main Takeaways Values beat vibes. Chemistry fades; aligned values keep relationships stable long-term. Choice overload kills connection. The app era fuels paradox of choice and "dating for dismissal." Narrow on what actually matters. Readiness > checklist. Openness, fair conflict, and commitment predict lasting love more than "perfect" specs.     Deep Dive — 3 Core Topics 1) Values Over Chemistry (02:24–03:31) Timestamp: 02:24 What it means: Prioritizing values (character, life goals, family, faith, kids) prevents future mismatch that chemistry can hide. This shifts selection from short-term spark to long-term fit—dramatically reducing avoidable breakups. Notable quote (02:24): "Values are something that is core to who you are… you can't see red flags with rose-colored goggles." Why it matters: When values align, everyday decisions, conflict resolution, money, and parenting stay coherent—creating durability instead of turbulence. 2) Apps, Standards & the Paradox of Choice (11:27–12:20; 04:20–05:24) Timestamp: 11:27 What it means: Infinite swiping feeds a paradox of choice and "dating for dismissal," where attention moves to filtering out instead of letting something good unfold. Over-filtering (height, income, micro-preferences) trades possibility for illusion. Notable quotes: (11:27) "With apps, you have this paradox of choice… 50 shades of gray… dating for dismissal." (04:20–05:24) "Apps are only good for about 10%… someone swiped 2,000 times to get one date." Why it matters: Reducing noise (3–5 non-negotiable values) turns attention from shopping to connecting, improving follow-through, first-date quality, and momentum. 3) Readiness, Gender Expectations & Real Commitment (17:56–19:56; 29:38–30:34; 15:37–17:34) Timestamp: 17:56 What it means: A long checklist often masks fear; readiness looks like an open heart, flexible standards, and willingness to be coached. Add fair fighting and commitment to the relationship "third entity," and longevity rises. Modern gender roles (wanting alpha drive plus deep emotional attunement) can become an impossible ideal—so clarity beats fantasy. Notable quotes: (17:56) "Either they have a loving mindset and an open heart… or they're closed off… and not really ready." (29:38–30:34) "How you argue… fight fair… commitment to the relationship." (15:37–17:34) On shifting gender expectations and the "perfect person" myth. Why it matters: Readiness turns dates into data, conflict into collaboration, and differences into design choices—key levers for resilient partnership.

"Everybody wants to heal… until the medicine shows up in the form of discipline." – Hippocrates (400 B.C.) Why is it so hard to do the things we say we want to do? In today's episode, we're digging into one of the biggest struggles so many of us face: discipline. Not just why it's hard—but why it can feel almost impossible in today's world. We're not lazy. We're not broken. We're living in a world designed to hijack our brains through overstimulation and constant dopamine hits—from social media, processed food, streaming content, even the kind of books we read. In this episode, I'll walk you through: Why discipline feels harder than ever (hint: it's not your fault) How dopamine and your brain's salience network make high-stimulation things feel more important than your goals What makes your brain highlight some things (and ignore others) Why real connection, presence, and long-term goals feel boring when you're overstimulated How to retrain your brain so discipline feels easier, not harder This isn't about going off the grid or giving up your phone. It's about making discipline feel possible again—by making life just a little bit quieter.
