Risse im Berg, notfallmässig muss ein ganzes Dorf evakuiert werden. Gründe für den Bergsturz in Blatten gibt es viele, noch ist aber vieles unklar. Robert Kenner forscht beim Institut für Schnee und Lawinenforschung zur Alpinen Umwelt und Naturgefahren. Sind beispielsweise im Gebirge Böden dauerhaft gefroren, dann spricht man von Permafrost. Dieser ist im Gegensatz zu Gletschern nicht sichtbar. Er spielt für die Stabilität der Hänge, für die Hydrologie und Naturgefahren eine wichtige Rolle. Unterdessen sind grosse Flächen dieses Permafrostes in den Schweizer Alpen aufgetaut. Weitere Faktoren für Fels- oder Bergstürze kann auch die Gravitation sein, eine Ermüdung des Felsens oder wenn der Gletscher erodiert und die Spannung sich verlagert. Wie verändern sich unsere Alpen momentan? Was geschieht in Brienz, sind diese beiden Ereignisse vergleichbar? Robert Kenner ist zu Gast im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.
Die Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner von Blatten VS musste am Montag ihre Häuser verlassen, weil ein Felssturz droht. Die Behörden wissen, dass ein Felssturz bevorsteht, weil unserer Berge zum Teil überwacht werden. In dieser Folge erfahrt ihr, wie genau. Mit Sensoren, GPS-Geräten, Laser und Satelliten sehen Forschende jede Bewegung an einem überwachten Berg. So können sie abschätzen, wann es zu grösseren Felsstürzen kommen könnte. Dank diesem Frühwarnsystem können die Bewohner von Bergdörfern frühzeitig gewarnt und evakuiert werden. In dieser Folge von News Plus zeigen wir auf, wie dieses Überwachungssystem funktioniert. ____________________ Habt Ihr Fragen oder Themen-Inputs?

Following a sneak peek screening of the new Food, Inc. 2, Dani sat down with Michael Pollan of The Omnivore's Dilemma, Marion Nestle of Food Politics, and the filmmakers Robert Kenner and Melissa Robledo. They discuss the biggest changes they have observed since the release of Food, Inc. in 2008, the hold that multinational corporations have on the U.S. government, and whether guiding eaters toward different choices is enough to drive the food systems change we want to see. In Food, Inc. 2, the sequel to the Oscar®-nominated and Emmy®-award winning documentary, Food, Inc., filmmakers Robert Kenner and Melissa Robledo reunite with investigative authors Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser to take a fresh look at our efficient yet vulnerable food system. This conversation, hosted by Food Tank, Participant, River Road, and NYU Steinhardt, was part of Food Tank's NYC Climate Week programming that positioned food and agriculture systems as a solution to the climate crisis.

Revenons aux sources avec la terreur du Delta Blues, Howlin' Wolf. Cet immense gaillard impose le respect par son vécu à travers l'Amérique ségrégationniste du début du XXe siècle, sans compter une situation familiale déplorable dont il s'arracha avec un courage exemplaire. Wolf avait une force de caractère hors du commun qu'il injecta dans un blues guerrier et revanchard, une musique si puissante et évocatrice qu'elle inspira le monde entier. Durant son parcours hallucinant, Wolf croisa le chemin de toutes les légendes du Mississippi : Charley Patton, Son House, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters... Des musiciens au talent surnaturel qui changèrent la donne. Howlin Wolf en fut l'un des emblèmes, un artiste parmi les plus importants de l'histoire de la musique moderne.

Director Robert Kenner discusses his new film, Command and Control, with Chuck Workman. The film chronicles the nine-hour ordeal that occurred at an Arkansas missile complex in September 1980. After a worker drops a socket and accidentally punctures the fuel tank of an intercontinental ballistic missile, drastic measures must be taken to avoid a deadly nuclear explosion.
Robert Kenner is a lonely man looking for love. Today, if he can actually get his boss to give him some time off, he is going on his first date for 6 years. Oh, and he is also the world’s only SuperHero.
For her new book, sociologist Arlie Hochschild listened to Trump supporters explain their world in their own words. She spent five years in southwestern Louisiana searching for their “deep story,” which she recounts in Strangers in Their Own Land—it’s been longlisted for the National Book Award. Plus: The battle inside Trump’s campaign about whether to take the low road, or the high one. Amy Wilentz analyzes the role of the Trump children—who, we are told, are trying to get their father to campaign on actual political issues. And we’ll also hear a chilling disaster at a Titan II missile complex in Arkansas in September, 1980, where the most powerful nuclear warhead in our arsenal was almost detonated. That’s the subject of the new documentary Command and Control—director Robert Kenner and writer Eric Schlosser explain. The film rolls out this week across the nation.
On the evening of September 18, 1980, Airmen David F. Powell and Jeffrey L. Plumb were performing routine maintenance at the Titan II silo in Damascus, Arkansas. At the age of 21, Powell was considered a highly experienced missile technician; Plumb, who had just turned 19, was still in training. As the two stood on a platform near the top of the Titan II, a socket fell from Powell’s wrench, plummeted 70 feet and, shockingly, punctured the missile. A stream of highly explosive rocket fuel began pouring into the silo of the most powerful nuclear warhead ever built by the United States. A chilling, Dr. Strangelovian nightmare plays out at a Titan II missile complex in Arkansas in September, 1980. A deadly accident leads Air Force personnel, weapon designers, and first responders to work feverishly to prevent a catastrophic explosion. Directed by Robert Kenner (FOOD, INC.) and based on the critically-acclaimed book by Eric Schlosser (FAST FOOD NATION), COMMAND AND CONTROL is a minute-by-minute account of this long-hidden story – much of it based on recently declassified documents that expose other freak accidents and near-misses. How do you manage weapons of mass destruction without being destroyed by them? COMMAND AND CONTROL chronicles nine hours of terror that prevented an explosion 600 times more powerful than Hiroshima. Director Robert Kenner joins us for a lively conversation on impact nuclear weapons have on our lives and the horrifying 36-year old apocalyptic tale that is just now being told.

Americans have a longstanding love affair with food -- the modern supermarket has, on average, 47,000 products. But do we really know what goes into making the products we so eagerly consume? David Brancaccio talks with filmmaker Robert Kenner, the director of Food, Inc., which takes a hard look at the secretive and surprising journey food takes on the way from processing plants to our dinner tables. The two discuss why contemporary food processing secrets are so closely guarded, their impact on our health, and another surprising fact: how consumers are actually empowered to make a difference.
