Pat Walsh steps in on The Shane Reaction with a lineup that sparks curiosity and conversation. We tackle a surprising poll asking listeners if they've ever stolen from a self-checkout register, dive into the news of Budweiser's Fairfield brewery shutting down and assess the current state of California's reservoirs.

In this episode, Martin talks to Dr Jon Otter, Director of Infection Prevention and Control at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital in London, UK. We examine two complementary pieces of work that provide further insight into Candidozyma auris transmission in acute hospitals. The first demonstrates, for the first time in the UK, that ward-level wastewater reliably mirrors patient colonisation and can reveal genetically related outbreak strains using culture and PCR. The second, a case–control study, identifies clinical and environmental risk factors that shape colonisation, highlighting the significance of shared patient equipment. The paper can be found here: Davidson HC, Griffin AE, Symes L, Laing KG, Witney AA, Gould K, et al.

A recently published paper led by an Oregon State University researcher suggests that installing floating solar panels on top of existing reservoirs could have a variety of positive results. Those include cooling the solar panels, allowing for greater energy generation from those panels, and preventing the water in shallower reservoirs from warming to temperatures that are challenging for fish and other aquatic life. According to lead researcher Evan Bredeweg, there are relatively few of these kinds of installations in the U.S., but in countries that have embraced solar and non-fossil fuel energy, they are relatively common. Bredeweg joins us to tell us more about the study and the potential floating solar has for wide-scale adoption.

Idaho Water Resource Board approves three major projects to improve water management of the Snake River and Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer.

From 1907 to 1967, a network of reservoirs and aqueducts was built across more than one million acres in upstate New York, including Greene, Delaware, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. This feat of engineering served to meet New York City's ever-increasing need for water, sustaining its inhabitants and cementing it as a center of industry. West of the Hudson, it meant that twenty-six villages, with their farms, forest lands, orchards, and quarries, were bought for a fraction of their value, demolished, and submerged, profoundly altering ecosystems in ways we will never fully appreciate. This paradox of victory and loss is at the heart of Nineteen Reservoirs: On Their Creation and the Promise of Water for New York City (The Experiment, 2022) Lucy Sante's meticulous account of how New York City secured its seemingly limitless fresh water supply, and why it cannot be taken for granted. In inimitable form, Sante plumbs the historical record to surface forgotten archives, bringing lost places back to life on the page. Her immaculately calibrated sensitivity honors both perspectives on New York City's reservoir system and helps us understand the full import of its creation. An essential history of the New York City region that will reverberate far beyond it, Nineteen Reservoirs examines universal divisions in our resources and priorities—between urban and rural, rich and poor, human needs and animal habitats. This is an unmissable account of triumph, tragedy, and unintended consequences. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Send us a textThis week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale talks with Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Fisheries Biologist, Cody Nagel. Rigger and many of you that sent him emails felt it was super important to check in with Cody about how Fresno and Nelson Reservoirs were doing after what we heard Bureau of Reclamation Project Manager Steve Darlinton said on last week's Podcast. Steve showed us a very large whirlpool that had formed out in Fresno Reservoir caused by the huge amount of water that was being let out of it to get the farmers in the area much needed water for crops and livestock. If you would like to watch last week's Podcast with guest Steve Darlinton, just click here. With drought conditions already happening and those being made worse because of the St Mary's Siphon being out of operation, there is a serious lack of water in the area and that everyone very concerned. So, with very low water now in Fresno and more water coming out of Nelson, will the fish survive? And what about the rest of the Milk River Basin? Listen to this podcast and get the answers to those and many other important questions about the present and future of these two wonderful fisheries. Plus, Cody also took some time to give a great update on how the Paddlefish season is going and he even gave some tips on how to not get skunked if you are lucky enough to have a tag for his area! Course, his great advice will work no matter where you are going to fish for those big nosed wonders of the deep. There is a TON if great information here so make sure you and mash that play button!

The Environment Agency says the north west of England is in drought. One farmer tells us this year's crops are already ruined because of a lack of water.Two proposed reservoirs have been given 'nationally significant' status by the government to speed up the planning process. Decisions on the Lincolnshire Reservoir which is planned for an area near Sleaford and the Fens Reservoir near March in Cambridgeshire will now be accelerated. Ministers say the law will also be changed so that in the future all projects which are, as they put it, 'fundamental to national water resilience' will automatically be designated as 'nationally significant'. Farming communities are concerned about the impact on productive farmland, and one farmer says the Lincolnshire scheme will wipe out her home and her business.All week we're talking about the nation's national parks. The Scottish Government's decided not to go ahead with plans for a new national park in Galloway. After a long legal battle supreme court judges ruled that wild camping is allowed on Dartmoor, we speak to the park's chief executive. In Wales we report on a nature recovery project in Pembrokeshire which works with farmers to enhance farmland by the coast. In The Broads Norfolk farmers and environmentalists are trying to tackle the damage being caused by deer. Golden Eagles have been extinct in England since 2015 when a solitary bird died in the Lake District. But could that be about to change? A conservation project in the south of Scotland which began in 2018 has seen a huge increase in the eagle population there, and some of those birds have begun exploring places like the Northumberland National Park where one was spotted just a few weeks agoPresenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

In this powerful message, Cody Williams challenges us to live lives that flow with the abundance of God's love, grace, and generosity. Drawing from John 7:37-38, Cody unpacks what it means to be rivers, not reservoirs, of living water, especially in a world that often leads us to operate out of fear and scarcity. He highlights three key areas where God is inviting us to align our hearts with His: love, grace, and generosity. This episode will inspire you to move from self-preservation to purpose and from control to Christlike compassion.

CutTheClutter: Why is India flushing the Baglihar and Salal reservoirs?

Send us a textDo you remember about this time last year when we had Kit and Trevor Johnson here on the Montana Outdoor Podcast? Your host Downrigger Dale and his fishing buddy the Captain talked to them about the great big Kokanee Salmon that they had been catching on Holter and Hauser Reservoir. Many of you wanted to know how they were finding and catching those great big, beautiful Kokanee Salmon so we thought we would run that podcast again for those of you that did not get a chance to hear it or who did hear it but wanted to get a refresher course on how to find and catch those. Cause after all, starting now and continuing through June  is a perfect time to get out and fish for those.  You might also recall when Rigger talked to FWP Fisheries Biologist Adam Strainer on the Podcast (click here if you want to hear that podcast ) about the mysterious disappearance and eventual return of Kokanee Salmon to Holter and Hauser, but we had no idea that they were so huge! Talk about a comeback! It is doubtful anyone else knew either, but Kit and Trevor spent hours and hours out on those reservoirs targeting Kokanee and found out just where to find them and how to catch them and now when you listen to this week's podcast you will know too! As Trevor said on the podcast, “these are true world class Kokanee!”. This truly is one of the most exciting and informative podcasts we have ever done so DO NOT MISS OUT! One of the main things we learned is it is all about finesse when going after these incredible fish so listen carefully or better yet book a fishing trip with Kit or Trevor and learn firsthand from these pros. You will have a blast and learn a TON!

Lack of preparedness. Forestry mismanagement. Water mis-prioritization. And political failures at the highest levels...Jillian Michaels unpacks the latest wildfire catastrophe in Los Angeles with two powerhouse journalists - Michael Shellenberger and Ana Kasparian. What or who caused these fires and could this unmitigated disaster have been mitigated? Reservoirs were inexplicably drained during peak fire season. Hydrants weren't working properly. Mismanaged evacuation orders led to gridlock, forcing terrified residents to flee on foot while meter maids continued writing parking tickets just miles away. Fire department budgets were slashed. Crucial bills, designed to enable life-saving prescribed burns, were vetoed by Governor Gavin Newsom. And Mayor Karen Bass focused on optics as critical infrastructure collapsed. Negligence? Corruption? It's time to find out. In this show we're tearing apart the political and systemic failures that created a catastrophic inferno. This is about more than Los Angeles—this is a warning for every community grappling with leadership unfit to manage crisis.Follow Jillian on IG: @JillianMichaelsDon't forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: https://bit.ly/KeepingItRealwithJillianMichaelsWatch Keeping It Real on YouTube: https://bit.ly/KeepingItRealwithJillianMichaels Learn more about your ad choices.

Now, the focus shifts to the Senate, where seven more Democratic votes are needed to pass the bill. Jim and Greg are encouraged by the bill's momentum and applaud Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman for speaking candidly to his party about the importance of the legislation.Next, they dive into the devastating California wildfires, as shocking images and videos emerge from Pacific Palisades and beyond. Jim and Greg discuss the chaos of the situation, including Mayor Karen Bass being out of the country during the first few days of the crisis. They explore the conditions that turned these fires into a nightmare and examine how environmental policies that are meant to help are instead making the problem worse.Finally, they discuss Donald Trump's latest press conference and his interest in acquiring Greenland, the Panama Canal, and even Canada. He also proposed renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. Jim and Greg explain what they think Trump is doing and get a kick out of the left once again getting hysterical over everything Trump does.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelphttps://Betterhelp.com/3MLThank you to our sponsor Betterhelp.  Visit today for 10% off your first month of online therapy.

Laura Modlin interviews Andrew Kupinse about preserving zoning in Easton, CT to protect the water supply in the town's four reservoirs. They serve 100s of thousands of customers in Fairfield County, Connecticut. Originally aired December 1, 2024.

Mark Easter is a Colorado-based ecologist and author whose new book is titled "The Blue Plate: A Food Lover's Guide to Climate Chaos." If you care about food and you care about Planet Earth, "The Blue Plate" is a must-read. It explores the production, consumption, and disposal of many of our favorite foods– seafood, salad, bread, chicken, steak, potatoes, ice cream, and more– and offers a thoughtful and nuanced analysis of these foods' impacts on the environment. This is not a gloom-and-doom climate change book, nor does it have the condescending tone that sometimes accompanies many climate-related readings. While Mark is crystal clear about the massive threats facing our planet, this is a book built on the ideals of optimism, ingenuity, and taking action. I loved it. Mark lives and works in Fort Collins and has conducted research in academia and private industry since 1988. He has enjoyed a very successful and impactful career at Colorado State University, and he has authored and co-authored more than 50 scientific papers and reports related to carbon cycling and the carbon footprint of agriculture, forestry, and other land uses. But Mark also has a real gift for storytelling and for breaking down enormously complex topics into understandable and enjoyable writing. His writing is personal, educational, and fun to read, and I credit Mark and "The Blue Plate" with helping me to finally fully understand issues around greenhouse gas emissions and carbon sequestration. Mark and I met up a few weeks ago at CSU and had a fun and nuanced conversation about food, agriculture, and the climate. We started by discussing why he refers to himself as a “greenhouse gas accountant,” and he offers an excellent explanation of soil's all-important role in balancing the release and capture of carbon on Planet Earth. We talk about how grasslands, jungles, and mangroves sequester carbon, and how and why the destruction of any of these ecosystems negatively affects the planet. We discuss Mark's ten-year process of writing this book and how Patagonia Books helped him bring his vision to life. We discuss how methane is produced by everything from reservoirs to ruminants, and why that particular greenhouse gas is more harmful than the others. We discuss regenerative agriculture, meat production, composting, and personal diet choices, and Mark offers a long list of excellent book recommendations. We barely scratched the surface of all of the fascinating topics in "The Blue Plate," so if you enjoy this conversation, I'd encourage you to pick up a copy of the book and dig in. I know you'll enjoy it and learn a lot. --- Mark Easter The Blue Plate: A Food Lover's Guide to Climate Chaos Patagonia Books Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/mark-easter/ --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 3:00 - Intro and how Mark describes his work 7:15 - Parallels between carbon accounting and business accounting 13:45 - An overview of soil and carbon 21:30 - Carbon in grasslands vs jungles vs mangroves 25:00 - How and why Mark decided to write this book 33:00 - The ten-year process of writing the book 37:00 - Greenhouse gases explained 40:00 - Methane feedback loop explained 43:30 - A fascinating story about methane in Lake Powell 46:15 - Reservoirs and evaporation 47:00 - The most difficult chapter to write: Ruminants and meat 55:30 - The increasing global demand for meat 58:00 - Taking action and personal responsibility 1:01:30 - Personal responsibility versus regulation 1:04:00 - A helpful way to understand carbon quantities 1:06:00 - Carbon consequences of transforming forests to grasslands 1:09:00 - All about composting 1:13:00 - Business opportunities in regenerative agriculture 1:16:30 - Favorite books 1:22:15 - Parting words --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts

Episode No. 673 of The Modern Art Notes Podcast features artist Matthew Brandt.  Brandt is included in "Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene" at the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University. The exhibition shows how 45 photo-based artists from around the world have examined the Anthropocene. "Second Nature" was curated by Jessica May and Marshall N. Price and is on view through January 5, 2025. An excellent catalogue was published by Rizzoli Electa. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for about $49-60.  Brandt's works often join physical elements from the subjects he photographs to investigations of the land and our impacts on it. He's received solo shows at museums such as the Newark Museum, and he's been included in major group shows at museums such as the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and more. His work is in nearly all major institutional US photography collections.  Brandt's website includes extensive galleries of the series of work discussed on the program, including:  Lakes and Reservoirs; Carbon; Trees (including George Bush Park 1, 2009-11); Taste Tests (featuring Yosemite); Eagles; Woodblocks; Waterfalls; and 1864.
