December 5, 2025: SHRM reports that AI is accelerating the collapse of traditional entry-level roles, forcing companies to rethink how they develop early-career talent. A WIRED investigation reveals what happened when a startup tried replacing employees with AI agents—and why it quickly fell apart. The CEO of NTT DATA tells Reuters that the current AI bubble will be short-lived before a much larger wave of transformation. A new Times of India story shows that young remote workers are losing career momentum due to reduced visibility and fewer opportunities for mentorship. The Hechinger Report uncovers why "no degree required" is still largely a myth as employers continue to favor credentialed candidates. And a new Challenger report finds more than 71,000 layoffs as companies restructure around evolving skill needs.

Microsoft has announced a price increase for its Office productivity software subscriptions, set to take effect on July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Business Basic subscription will rise from $6 to $7 per user per month, while the Business Standard subscription will increase from $12.50 to $14. Additionally, the Microsoft 365 E3 enterprise subscription will see a 13% hike from $23 to $26. This adjustment follows a period of infrequent price changes since the launch of Office 365 in 2011 and reflects Microsoft's significant investment in its platform, which has introduced over 1,100 new features in the past year. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) should prepare for customer pushback regarding these increases, as clients may direct their frustrations toward their service providers rather than Microsoft.In related developments, several companies have announced product updates aimed at simplifying user experiences. Nerdio has enhanced its enterprise platform to support Azure Virtual Desktop in hybrid environments, while Coro has released version 3.7 of its cybersecurity platform, which features a redesigned interface for improved management. Comcast Business has also upgraded its internet services for small businesses, offering faster speeds and enhanced reliability. These updates indicate a broader trend toward simplifying technology solutions, but they also introduce new governance risks that MSPs must address.The episode also highlights a shift in educational trends, with an increasing number of college students opting for artificial intelligence majors over traditional computer science degrees. This change is driven by concerns over job market prospects for computer science graduates. As universities adapt their curricula to meet the demand for AI skills, MSPs may face challenges in finding candidates who possess the necessary infrastructure knowledge to support business operations effectively.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of proactive communication with clients regarding price changes and the value of technology investments. As tools become more automated and user-friendly, the need for robust governance and security measures becomes paramount. MSPs should focus on ensuring that their clients understand the implications of these changes and the necessity of maintaining foundational IT practices, particularly as the talent pipeline shifts toward AI-focused education. Four Things to Know Today:00:00 Microsoft's 2026 M365 Price Hike Highlights Its Market Power—and Forces MSPs to Reframe Value With Customers03:14 Automation and Simplified Dashboards Dominate New Releases, but Experts Say MSPs Still Shoulder the Governance Burden06:54 AI Majors Surge as Computer Science Enrollment Falls, Reshaping the Tech Talent Pipeline08:55 MCP's Rapid Adoption Outpaces Governance, Creating Opportunity—and Risk—for MSPs Managing AI Integration Sponsored by: https://scalepad.com/dave/https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/ 

Weather data suggests Minnesota has warmed more than three degrees in the past 150 years, and the state's winters have warmed more than five degrees since 1970.So how are Minnesotans seeing and feeling these climate changes? “Here in Minnesota, we are experiencing climate change predominantly in the winter,” said Kristoffer Tigue, a reporter for the Minnesota Star Tribune.“We base a lot of our culture around our winters, and so to have our winters being the season that's changing the most, I think it tells a narrative of the direction we're going as a state.”Tigue explained that the state is experiencing warmer winters, an increase in precipitation and melting. Tigue wrote about the many ways Minnesotans are seeing climate change — from warmer falls, to a lack of foliage color and wildfire smoke.

Claudin 18.2 is a novel biomarker for advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancer. Patients who test positive for claudin 18.2 may be candidates for the monoclonal antibody, zolbetuximab, which directly targets this biomarker. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Manish A. Shah, MD, FASCO, director of the Gastrointestinal Oncology Program at Weill Cornell Medicine, about how claudin 18.2 is shaping treatment decisions and some of the clinical trials pursuing more information about the potential for this biomarker. CANCER BUZZ also speaks with Sasha Watson, PharmD, outpatient medical oncology clinical pharmacist at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, about the importance of engaging the whole multidisciplinary team in biomarker testing for optimal patient outcomes.   "I often talk to my gastroenterologist and ask them to get more than 1 biopsy to make sure that we have enough tissue for now and even in the future." - Manish A. Shah, MD, FASCO Instead of lumping all gastric cancers into one group, we use these biomarkers to split them out... We have more refined and tailored treatments for patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma based on these biomarkers." - Manish A. Shah, MD, FASCO "Nurses in the infusion center are a huge help that we absolutely need, and administering this treatment would be very difficult if we didn't have scaled and experienced nurses here." - Aleksandra (Sasha) Watson, PharmD "What I see is just a lot of patients having hope—some new part of their cancer that we can target with a drug that we previously didn't have any options for." - Aleksandra (Sasha) Watson, PharmD   Guests:               Manish A.

Though there's a massive backlog of immigration cases that need rulings, the Trump administration has been firing immigration judges. Ximena Bustillo, NPR's immigration and DHS reporter, has spotted a trend – many of the judges let go have previous experience in immigration defense. At the same time, the Trump administration has allocated $3 billion to beef up ICE as an agency and hire “deportation judges.”Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What happens when a nation's energy security rests on volatile global gas markets? Why does the UK pay market prices for some of the world's cheapest-to-produce gas? And is now the moment to rethink decades of “leave it to the market” dogma?This week on Cleaning Up, Baroness Bryony Worthington sits down with Seb Kennedy, energy journalist and founder of Energy Flux, to unpack the turbulent geopolitics of natural gas, the coming LNG glut, and why the UK–Norway relationship sits at the heart of Britain's energy affordability crisis.Drawing on their recent joint op-ed, Bryony and Seb explore the UK's dependence on Norwegian gas, the vast windfalls that have flowed into Norway's sovereign wealth fund since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and whether a new bilateral deal could shield consumers from future price shocks. They examine the structural forces reshaping global gas markets, the rise of speculative trading, and whether electrification will become harder when gas gets cheap.Leadership Circle:Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with Sangeet Paul Choudary, one of the world's leading thinkers on digital strategy, platforms, and the future of value creation. Sangeet is the author of the acclaimed new book Reshuffle: Who Wins When AI Transforms the Knowledge Economy, a work that reframes how leaders must think about artificial intelligence—not as a tool for faster workflows, but as a force that will rewrite the foundations of competition.Across the conversation, Sangeet challenges the familiar narrative of automation and productivity gains. Drawing on decades of research into platforms, market structure, and shifting sources of advantage, he explains why AI's real impact will not be felt at the task level but at the level of organizational identity, industry architecture, and the assumptions leaders use to define their business. For CEOs and senior executives, his message is clear: the companies that thrive in the years ahead will be those that reexamine what game they play before investing in how fast they play it.Sangeet introduces the idea of building a “map”—a strategic view of how value is moving across your industry—before deploying AI to accelerate existing processes. He argues that leaders who rush to optimize current workflows risk becoming highly efficient at activities that no longer matter. Instead, organizations must continually reassess their model of the market, the basis of differentiation, and the capabilities that will matter one year out—a timeframe that now represents the new strategic horizon.The discussion spans far beyond theory. Through examples ranging from mining and materials to chemicals, healthcare, and creative industries, Sangeet shows how knowledge work underpins value creation in nearly every sector—and how AI will reshape that work. He also explores the growing importance of sensemaking, the role of agency inside organizations, why incumbents struggle to adapt to new architectures, and what leaders must do to prepare their people for the jobs and capabilities of tomorrow.For senior executives navigating unprecedented uncertainty, this episode offers a compelling lens on the future—not through hype, but through practical strategy. Sangeet's insights help leaders see what they may have sensed but couldn't yet articulate, and highlight the conversations they need to prioritize with their teams right now.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why “running faster” with AI may push your organization in the wrong direction—and how to build the right strategic map before accelerating.Hear how Sangeet reframes AI's impact—not as workflow automation, but as a force that reshapes differentiation, identity, and industry structure.You'll explore why knowledge work underpins value creation in far more sectors than most leaders assume—and what that means for your competitive position.Hear how to distinguish first-order effects of AI (automation) from second- and third-order effects that redefine entire markets.You'll learn why sensemaking is no longer the job of a strategy team alone—and what leaders must do to distribute this capability across the organization.Discover how coordination, not autonomy, will become the real advantage inside AI-enabled organizations.Hear why incumbents often fail—not because they're slow, but because they can't shift to new architectures—and what leaders can do differently.You'll learn why reskilling efforts fall short Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

AI has become one of the most-used business technologies. But delve deeper into the biz tech data and there's another story to be told.  In the latest CPA Australia Business Technology Report, 89 per cent of respondents said their organisation used AI in 2025, up from 69 per cent in 2024 and 55 per cent in 2023.  Yet only 16 per cent report that AI is fully embedded across their operations.  Most teams are still experimenting, often relying on free or basic tools rather than structured, strategic adoption. The gap between usage and true integration points to significant untapped potential.  Many core finance and operational processes are still only lightly digitised, despite clear opportunities for efficiency, clarity and improved decision-making.  This episode examines how finance and accounting teams can use AI to strengthen systems and create capacity where it matters most.  Drawing on the survey's findings, you'll hear how top-performing businesses integrate AI across their workflows and why mindset, curiosity and practical governance underpin successful adoption.  Gain a grounded view of how firms apply AI in everyday workflows, supported by data from CPA Australia's annual tech and business report.  Listen now for practical steps to help your business integrate AI.  Host: Gavan Ord, Business Investment and International Lead, Policy and Advocacy, CPA Australia  Guest: Kyelie Baxter FCPA, Managing Director, IQ Accountants  The CPA Australia Business Technology Report 2025 is a valuable resource for those who want the latest tech usage trends by business.  Additionally, this YouTube webinar Securing the Future: AI, Cybersecurity & the Road to Tech-Driven Growth has related insights with industry experts and technology leaders discussing the latest trends, challenges and strategies in building tech-forward organisations.   And for more on this episode's guest, head to IQ Accountants on LinkedIn.  Loving this episode? Listen to more With Interest episodes and other CPA Australia podcasts on YouTube.  CPA Australia publishes four podcasts, providing commentary and thought leadership across business, finance, and accounting: With Interest  INTHEBLACK  INTHEBLACK Out Loud  Excel Tips  Search for them in your podcast platform.  Email the podcast team at podcasts@cpaaustralia.com.au

How much control do we have over our actions and decisions? For most of us, it's likely that the answer is that, of course, all of the choices we make are our own. But it's long been argued by some scientists and philosophers that this isn't the case at all. Could it be that the trajectories of our lives are largely already written into our biology, genes and neural circuitry before we're even born? In this episode, we're joined by Dr Hannah Critchlow, a neuroscientist and author based at the University of Cambridge and recipient of the 2026 Humanist Society's Rosalind Franklin Medal. She explains how our personalities, beliefs and actions are deeply influenced by our ancestry, genes and upbringing, what's happening in our brains when we make a decision, and how current research is showing that accepting our predispositions can likely help us all make the most of who we are.

In this episode of the REB Business Empowerment Showcase, editor Liam Garman sits down with Ben White, co-founder and CEO of Ailo, and Jodie Stainton, Harcourts Solutions Group director of property management, to examine the forces redefining modern property management, from new technology to cultural change, and shifting consumer expectations. White charts the sector's evolution across three major waves: the digitisation of paperwork, the rise of cloud connectivity, and now a third wave focused squarely on the customer experience. He explains why this era demands a complete rethink of how landlords, renters, and tradies interact with property managers, and how technology can streamline this shift. Stainton talks about how Harcourts Solutions Group is unpacking new property management models and leading large teams through transformation, sharing why personalised service delivery is becoming non-negotiable, and why culture and team empowerment sit at the heart of any successful change program. The discussion digs into the fear and friction that often accompany technological shifts, and why the agencies that confront this head-on are the ones lifting efficiency, strengthening relationships, and setting new service benchmarks. The episode closes with an emphasis on leadership, alignment, and culture – the foundations that enable property management businesses to innovate, adapt, and thrive. With the third wave of property management now in full swing, White and Stainton reveal why vision, technology and a customer-first mindset will define the next generation of industry leaders.

Together, they explore what it truly means to reshape economic systems in a way that honors culture, community, and collective well-being.Dr. Laryea shares her remarkable journey from Wall Street's fast-paced financial sector to the deeply intentional world of anthropology and ethical entrepreneurship.

They examine how entrepreneurship can become a tool for liberation when built with cultural integrity, shared value, and an abundance mindset at its core.This episode illuminates the importance of shifting from scarcity to collaboration, from extraction to empowerment, and from individual gain to collective advancement. Dr. Laryea offers a refreshing, necessary perspective on what ethical entrepreneurship looks like — and why cultural roots can be a catalyst for economic innovation.

This episode of The Food Professor Podcast takes a deep dive into one of the most powerful forces now reshaping the food industry: the rapid rise of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy. Hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois begin with a run-through of current food and retail headlines, including controversy at Campbell Soup, conversations around AI adoption and innovation in the food sector, and early teasers from the 2026 Canada Food Price Report. These stories set the stage for this week's feature discussion: how GLP-1 medications are altering what consumers eat, where they shop, and which products they choose.The heart of the episode features an in-depth interview with Ransom Hawley, Founder and CEO of Caddle, a Canadian mobile-first consumer insights platform with access to real-time behavioural data. Hawley shares new Canadian research showing GLP-1 household usage has jumped from 10% to 14% over two years, a dramatic 40% increase. Equally important is the shift in why people are taking these drugs: where most users initially relied on them to manage type-2 diabetes, an increasing number now use them primarily for weight loss. That consumer pivot mirrors rapid adoption trends in the United States and offers important clues about what's coming next for Canadian retailers, manufacturers and restaurants.Hawley reveals that GLP-1 users report eating less, losing weight, buying fewer groceries, and reducing restaurant visits. Consumption of alcohol, sugary beverages and impulse-driven snack foods is falling, while protein-rich foods, functional beverages and satiety-oriented products are gaining momentum. Categories seeing the steepest declines include bakery goods, packaged cookies, chocolates, soft drinks and sweet snacks—all long-time staples of convenience-driven food consumption. This suggests a structural shift, not a temporary fad.The conversation expands to consider the broader implications. As GLP-1 usage rises, brands face new challenges and opportunities: How should they reformulate products for consumers who eat less? Should retailers redesign planograms to reflect category shrinkage? Will foodservice operators pivot toward protein-forward meals, smoothies and portion-smart menu strategies? As the hosts discuss, this is the first time since COVID-era lockdowns that such a large segment of the population is simultaneously changing eating behaviours, and its ripple effects will reshape category strategies, promotional plans, and innovation pipelines.By the end of the episode, one thing is clear: GLP-1 drugs are not just a pharmaceutical phenomenon—they are transforming food culture, retail economics, and consumer expectations. Retailers and brands that ignore this shift risk falling behind; those who understand it may unlock a once-in-a-generation competitive advantage. The Food Professor #podcast is presented by Caddle.

Send us a textGood morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we dive into a series of significant stories shaping the future of healthcare, from innovative financing strategies to groundbreaking scientific advancements.The biotech industry in 2025 has experienced a notable shift in funding strategies, particularly through the rising trend of royalty financing. This approach, involving the exchange of future drug revenue for immediate capital, has surged to approximately $3.5 billion in disclosed upfront volume in just the first half of the year. According to health economist Julien Willard, this represents a transformative shift from a niche option to a mainstream strategy amid challenging equity and credit markets. Royalty financing provides biotech companies with a lifeline, allowing them to avoid the pitfalls of equity dilution or high-interest debt while retaining control over their clinical developments. Firms like Royalty Pharma and Healthcare Royalty Partners are at the forefront, offering upfront cash for future sales royalties, typically ranging from 2.5% to 7.5%.This trend has accelerated due to economic pressures like low stock valuations and rising interest rates, making traditional funding routes less viable. A closer look at this year's deals reveals a cautious approach among investors, who are focusing on phase 3 trials or candidates awaiting FDA approval rather than early-stage assets. Oncology takes center stage as the leading therapeutic area, accounting for about 70% of total disclosed funding, thanks to its potential for large revenue streams. Other areas like rare genetic diseases and immunology also attract significant attention.Interestingly, even large pharmaceutical companies such as Biogen have ventured into royalty financing—an unconventional move for well-capitalized firms. Biogen's collaboration with Royalty Pharma for lupus drug development illustrates innovative financial engineering by transferring clinical trial risk through milestone-tied payments. As this strategy gains traction globally, especially in cash-strapped regions like Asia, it serves as a crucial tool for companies prioritizing survival and continued innovation amidst financial uncertainties.Turning now to regulatory dynamics and strategic shifts within the industry. The legal controversy between GSK's subsidiary Tesaro and AnaptysBio over Jemperli highlights complexities in collaborative agreements within drug development. Such disputes could reshape how companies negotiate intellectual property rights and revenue sharing in future co-development deals.The FDA's investigation into Takeda's Adzynma following a pediatric patient's death underscores the critical role of post-market surveillance in drug safety. This incident could potentially impact Takeda's market position while emphasizing the need for robust adverse event monitoring systems across biopharmaceutical firms.In Australia, the government's decision to block Cosette's proposed $430 million acquisition of Mayne Pharma reflects increasing scrutiny on foreign investments in healthcare companies, prioritizing national interest. This move signals a growing trend that could reshape global M&A strategies within the sector.Meanwhile, Moderna's strategic financial maneuvering is noteworthy. By securing a $1.5 billion loan aimed at supporting its commercial and R&D endeavors with an eye on breaking even by 2028, Moderna demonstrates its commitment to diversifying its mRNA technology applications beyond COVID-19 vaccines—a move likely to influence innovation trajectories across biotech landscapes. Additionally, Moderna's decision to discontinue three clinical mRNA programs showcases strategic pipeline management amidSupport the show

Jeremy Au and Kristie Neo break down how China, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia are forming new economic corridors that reshape trade, capital movement, and technology strategy. They describe how China and the Gulf now work together at a scale that surpasses Gulf–West flows, how the UAE and Saudi Arabia use bold planning to diversify their economies, and why Western reporting still misses the magnitude of this shift. They examine how Chinese overcapacity fuels Middle Eastern mega projects, how sovereign funds on both sides deepen cross investment, and how AI, data centers, and energy abundance position the Gulf as a future compute hub. Kristie also outlines the gap between vision and execution in projects like NEOM, while Jeremy reflects on how these moves echo earlier global cycles. 00:55 Trade flows flipped direction. China Gulf commerce surpassed Gulf West trade in 2024 because Chinese overcapacity met Gulf demand for infrastructure, construction, and technology. 02:18 Media exposure hides the scale of change. Western and Chinese outlets lack global reach in covering Middle East China ties, which keeps the shift underreported. 08:56 UAE applied the Singapore playbook. Pro business policies, low tax systems, and investor friendly rules drew global hedge funds, family offices, and operators to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. 14:51 Qatar's World Cup showed the model. Gulf capital combined with Chinese labor and construction speed to complete major stadium projects on compressed timelines. 25:32 Sovereign funds deepened two way flows. Middle Eastern allocators increased exposure to Chinese assets as both sides diversified away from US denominated risk. 40:12 AI infrastructure became a national priority. Gulf governments invested heavily in data centers and chip capacity by pairing cheap energy with large land availability. 54:23 NEOM revealed ambition and friction. The 120 kilometer enclosed city concept captured Saudi Arabia's vision but faced delays that showed how difficult execution can be.

The numbers are brutal and they're hitting New Mexico families right now: average health insurance premiums jumping more than 35%, with some silver plans spiking over 50%. We unpack why rates are soaring, how subsidy design can unintentionally reward insurers, and why middle-income families often get hammered despite “help.” From malpractice pressures to physician shortages and thin competition, we connect the policy dots that quietly decide what you pay and what care you actually get.Safety takes center stage next. A new ranking labels New Mexico the most dangerous state for solo travelers, a gut punch to a tourism economy that depends on trust. We talk candidly about violent crime, the day-to-day realities for residents and visitors, and how enforcement, sentencing, and services either reinforce stability or erode it. That tension shows up in Bernalillo County's anti-ICE ordinance debate and in the Albuquerque mayor's race, where a controversial ad drew sharp pushback from police. When politics turns officers into villains or reframes violent-offender removals as fear campaigns, the public loses clarity—and safety.We close with kids and the attention economy. Drawing on Jonathan Haidt's work, we explore how adolescence migrated to smartphones and TikTok, why teen girls and boys are affected differently, and what parents can do right now to restore structure: later phones, device-free nights, shared screen spaces, real jobs, and faith or community anchors. The through-line is simple: policy and design choices matter. Health costs, crime trends, and youth mental health don't fix themselves; they respond to incentives, accountability, and honest leadership.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review.

It's rare to find someone whose career spans 18 years in automotive manufacturing and venture capital, but Charly Mgwani, Partner at Eclipse Ventures, has done exactly that. His journey from the factory floor at Toyota, Nissan, Tesla and Rivian to backing hard tech companies gives him a perspective many VCs don't have.We sit down with Charly to explore how first principles thinking (questioning assumptions and getting back to root causes) drives real innovation in manufacturing.He walks us through Tesla's early days when they were asking questions nobody in the automotive industry had thought to ask, like whether robots could be programmed to work faster or if there was a better way to design for manufacturing.The conversation covers what Eclipse looks for in the founders they support, why being scrappy can lead to better manufacturing decisions, and why old manufacturing principles need rethinking as the industry flows in the opposite direction.In this episode, find out:How first principles thinking challenges manufacturing assumptions and unlocks innovationWhy asking “why not?” opens possibilities that “that's how it's always been done” closes offThe critical relationship between product design and manufacturability that many companies overlookWhat Charly learned about manufacturing during his time at Toyota and NissanWhy being capital-constrained can force creativity and focus in manufacturingThe questions Tesla asked that nobody in automotive had thought to ask beforeWhat Eclipse Ventures looks for in the founders they back and why that matters for hard tech companiesEnjoying the show? Please leave us a review here. Even one sentence helps. It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“I was ten years into my career when Elon was asking questions that had never been asked in automotive before. By forcing us to think about things from a first principle, we started identifying levers like part consolidation that are now commonplace in manufacturing today.”“Most folks design a factory as just what's inside the shell, but then you end up with over-built systems that don't speak to each other. If you design it as one product, like how a vehicle would be designed, there are more synergistic opportunities to simplify the utilities and make them complimentary.”“Manufacturing until recently has always flowed towards low labor costs and consolidation in pursuit of economies of scale. But now it's flowing in the other direction, so that means you can't depend on previous principles and how manufacturing has always been designed.”Links & mentions:Eclipse Ventures, partnering with entrepreneurs boldly transforming the essential industries that define and propel economies.

The Trump administration’s nuclear ambitions raise new questions about safety, speed, and regulatory independence. --- The Trump administration has made nuclear power a centerpiece of its energy agenda, launching the most aggressive federal push for new reactors in decades. Through sweeping executive orders, new federal directives and financing support, and an $80 billion deal with Westinghouse, it aims to quadruple America’s nuclear capacity by mid-century and position the technology as a pillar of national security. But the rapid expansion is testing the independence of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the agency charged with ensuring that nuclear power is developed safely and free from political pressure. As the administration prioritizes speed, competitiveness, and national security, the NRC is being pushed to do more with fewer staff and to prioritize faster reactor approvals, raising concern that safety and the public trust it underpins could be compromised in the rush to build. Former NRC Chair Allison Macfarlane discusses what’s at stake for nuclear safety, regulation, and the future of U.S. nuclear power.

Biosolids are an unavoidable byproduct of wastewater treatment, and U.S. utilities are facing increasing challenges managing them amid tightening landfill capacity, rising hauling costs, and growing concerns about contaminants like PFAS. With 6.3 million dry metric tons produced every year, biosolids are becoming one of the fastest-growing operating expenses for wastewater utilities. In this episode of The Future of Water, host Reese Tisdale is joined by Bluefield's Pat Byrne to break down the current state of biosolids management in the U.S.—from landfilling and incineration to beneficial use pathways—and to highlight the regional disparities, regulatory pressures, and emerging technologies reshaping utility strategies. What biosolids are, how they're produced, and the main disposal and beneficial use pathways utilities rely on. The rising challenges of landfilling and incineration, including high costs, methane emissions, aging facilities, and limited capacity. The growing influence of PFAS, microplastics, and pharmaceuticals, and why utilities are passive receivers of these contaminants. How biosolids have become one of the fastest-growing operating costs, with annual spending rising from US$2.5B in 2025 to US$4.8B in 2035. Significant regional disparities, from high costs and tight capacity in the Northeast to heavier landfill reliance in the Southeast. New technologies and delivery models—from drying and dewatering to pyrolysis, gasification, SCWO, and DBOOM structures—reshaping future strategies.
