What do eiders eat, how do they feed, why is their poop so stinky, how do they taste, how many are there, and what are the most pressing conservation concerns affecting them? These and other questions are explored as Kate Martin and Dr. Sarah Gutowsky rejoin Dr. Mike Brasher to wrap up our common eider species profile. Also discussed is new research that is improving our knowledge of eider population trends and identifying important breeding and winter sites. New telemetry results are revealing fascinating insights about eider migration, and we learn of the important cultural and economic tie between common eiders and local communities, including why an eider down duvet could set you back $10,000!Listen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.org

Why is there so much astounding financial prosperity in so many countries around the world today…yet some countries have relatively little? Well, one huge reason is the great collaborative stewardship of free trade…welcomed by some nations, closed off by others. Yet most folks in a place like America tend to take free trade for granted…or sometimes actually oppose it! And what about the Kingdom and how the Great Commission aligns with free trade principles? Join Kevin as we dive into the topic of the great collaborative stewardship of free trade! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.
From bike mechanics and working a salad bar to writing about food systems and culture, this award-winning author and journalist has covered a lot of ground and explores the idea of food for both pleasure and sustenance in her latest book. Anya chats with andrea bennett, senior editor at The Tyee, about Hearty: On Cooking, Eating, and Growing Food for Pleasure and Subsistence.
Join us for a compelling conversation with Florence Reed, the visionary founder of Sustainable Harvest International, as we tackle the urgent global challenges of deforestation and agricultural sustainability. Discover the transformative power of climate-smart subsistence farming practices in Central America and the significant role tropical forests play in our climate's health. Florence shares heartwarming stories from her work with rural farmers and a glimpse into her documentary "Roots of Renewal," which beautifully captures the magic of turning degraded lands into flourishing agroforestry systems that allow these farmers to thrive.We'll unpack the short-sighted gains of traditional methods, like slash-and-burn, that lead to devastating land degradation and biodiversity loss, trapping farmers in cycles of poverty. Florence and I discuss how Sustainable Harvest International is breaking this cycle through an innovative multi-year program that empowers farming families with low-cost sustainable practices that promote soil health, improve nutrition, and reduce the dependency on harmful agrochemicals.Learn how SHI's sustainable farming cohort programs are reshaping gender dynamics and empowering women to take a leading role in agricultural and financial decision-making. We also cover the critical role listeners can play in this impactful mission, ensuring a healthier and more equitable world for future generations.Resources:Learn about Kara's Land Food Life Community Cleanse & Reset 28-day program that starts January 2nd, 2025 https://www.landfoodlife.com/cleanseVisit Sustainable Harvest International's website https://www.sustainableharvest.org/Watch the Roots of Renewal documentary for free www.rootsofrenewal.infoLearn about Kara Kroeger and her holistic nutrition and agroecology education services https://www.landfoodlife.com/

Max Weber once remarked that bureaucracy's power comes from its massing of expert and factual knowledges. It amasses this power, in part, by keeping much of its expertise and factual knowledge from public view. Only occasionally does someone with access reveal more of what's going on behind the scenes, and how it might matter for our thinking about how facts are produced and contested, and what kinds of facts matter to policy makers and why. Sarah Ball is one such person. In Behavioural Public Policy in Australia: How an Idea Became Practice (Routledge, 2024), the former public servant draws on interviews and ethnographic observation to chart the making of a behavioural public policy unit in the Australian public service, asking — and answering — questions about how the unit sought to make facts and establish expertise, and how the many meanings of behavioural insights were contested and accommodated along the way. If you like this episode of New Books in Interpretive Political and Social Science then you might also be interested in others in the series on the interpretation of policy, like Sarah Wiebe talking about Everyday Exposure, and more recently, José Ciro Martínez on States of Subsistence.

In this newscast: The City and Borough of Juneau will offer sandbags this weekend for residents affected by August's record-breaking glacial outburst flood. Every household that flooded is eligible for up to 200 free sandbags provided by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; Juneau-based writer Vera Starbard will be Alaska's next state writer laureate; Subsistence has always been part of the conversation during the Alaska Federation of Natives annual convention, but in recent years, it's a topic that's taken center stage as both a unifying and divisive topic. And, it is again the focal point, filling nearly half the agenda on the first day of this year's gathering; Southcentral Alaska's mariculture industry is optimistic about a bill passed this summer that streamlines the leasing process for kelp and shellfish farmers. The legislation could affect growers on the Kenai Peninsula - and around the state.
Dina Saleh is the Regional Director of the Near East, North Africa, and Europe Division at the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) – the only specialized global development institution exclusively focused on rural transformation. With more than 20 years of international experience, Dina has spearheaded agriculture and rural development initiatives across Eastern Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. She has also worked with both the private sector and international organizations like the UN, gaining a unique perspective on development across fragile and conflict-affected regions. We begin our conversation by exploring Dina's journey, starting with her early life in Yemen and Kenya, where agriculture was intrinsic to her formative years through her family's business in agricultural trade and her schooling. This sparked her passion for rural development and gave her firsthand insights into how food systems work, ultimately leading to her current role at IFAD. We then move on to the multifaceted challenges of working in fragile states like Somalia & Sudan, where conflict, climate change, and the lack of infrastructure severely hinder agricultural productivity. Dina discusses the delicate balance of working with both pastoralists and settled farmers, addressing conflicts over land and resources through innovative infrastructure solutions, as well as community-driven governance. Our discussion also delves into gender dynamics in rural development. Dina shares a striking example from Sudan, where women were initially barred from engaging in agricultural development initiatives. Working with local leaders, IFAD was able to empower women to participate in economic activities like food processing and home-based production. These success stories underscore the importance of patience and sustained effort in achieving long-term development goals. Tune in to hear more about the role of agriculture in poverty reduction and how organizations like IFAD are adapting their strategies to meet the complex and dynamic needs of fragile states! ***** Dina Saleh IFAD: https://www.ifad.org/en/w/people/dina-saleh ***** Mihaela Carstei, Paul M.

Our relationship with food in North America is such a deeply fascinating, contrasting, nuanced and complicated one. There's so much to consider – both in the sheer population size and geographic scale of our food systems, but also in how we make sense of the foods we do and do not have access to. My guest this week, andrea bennett, tackles these big questions in latest new book, and is here to discuss some of the central ideas around it. Andrea is a National Magazine Award-winning writer and senior editor at the Tyee, and has recently released a collection of essays called Hearty: On Cooking, Eating, and Growing Food for Pleasure and Subsistence through ECW Press. The essays in Hearty offer a snapshot of the North American cultural relationship to food and eating, deep diving into specific foods and tracing them through time, such as chutney, carrots, and ice cream, but also explores appetite and desire in food media, the art of substitution, seed saving and the triumphs and trials of being a home gardener, how the food system works (and doesn't), and complex societal narratives around health and pleasure. In today's discussion, we look at the relationship between vegetables, imagination, and food media, trace the labour that goes into food through different North American geographies, and how poverty, scarcity, and restaurant work informed their art of substitutions in recipes that translated into a nourishing sense of local community through time.

Alfred Quijance talks with documentarian Josh Wisneski for the Alaska Marine Conservation Council's Occupational Folklife Project “Beyond the Breakwater: Gulf of Alaska Small Boat Fishermen.” He talks about growing up in the remote Alutiiq/Sugpiaq community of Old Harbor on Kodiak Island; learning about traditional Native American seining, fishing and harvesting; and leaving at age 13 to find work on fishing boats and canneries throughout the state of Alaska.
We start this week with workers advancing the struggle for solidarity with Palestine in the UE and AFT, along with international stories from Brazil and The Netherlands. Also this week, workers ratified major new contracts at Amtrak and Disneyland, and new unions were formed at Prism Reports and The Frick Museum. In our first major story, the ALU Democratic Reform Caucus swept the recent union elections at JFK8 in Staten Island, we discuss their victory and the path forward for the new leadership. We also discuss a report from Truthout on the crushing conditions faced by small farmers in Mexico, fighting water theft and mass pollution from American mega pork producers like Smithfield. Also this week, the Washington Post released a new report on the rising numbers of workers who are employed full time and still unable to afford a roof over their heads. Finally, we finish off by celebrating workers securing the first ever union contract at an Apple Store in the US.

Brother Cam Porter teaches through Chapter 16 - Of Good Works. Key themes from the chapter:- Definition of Good Works - only those God has commanded in His Word.- The Subsistence and Manner: only those that flow from a regenerate heart, one purified by faith. The Spirit of Christ enables the will of man to do that freely and cheerfully what the will of God.- Necessary Foundation of Good Works: wholly from the Spirit of Christ. There is no boasting but in the Cross - not in ourselves!- A Warning: don't be negligent, waiting for special movings of the Spirit. Be diligent! Be active in pleasing God. Go to church. Gather with God's people. Attend to God's means given to us.- The Imperfection of the Best of Works.- Our Best works can NEVER merit pardon of sin or an iota of eternal life. Good works are just our duty.- Because believers are accepted in Christ, their good works are also accepted by Him.- The Purpose of Good Works: To manifest thankfulness. To strengthen assurance. To promote Christ and Christianity. To stop the mouths of the wicked by their conduct. To attract people to the gospel and draw them to church.Good works are faith operating by love.

In 1974 the government of Jordan established a new ministry to oversee a nationwide scheme to buy and distribute subsidized flour and regulate bakeries. The scheme sets terms for the politics that are the subject of a new book: States of Subsistence: The Politics of Bread in Contemporary Jordan (Stanford University Press, 2022). Rest assured, this is no dull account of state welfare that posits and tests for a two-dimensional relationship between the delivery of a staple food and public acquiescence to authoritarian rule. Far from it! To explain these politics, José Ciro Martínez goes to work baking, and taking the reader through kitchens, byways and marketplaces. Via descriptions of bakers and regulators, and interviews with consumers and policymakers, he offers a sophisticated account of how the state meets the stomach in Jordan, and how both citizens and bureaucracy are changed through this intra-action. States of Subsistence was the winner of the 2023 Roger Owen Book Award, sponsored by the Middle East Studies Association, and singled out for an honourable mention by the 2023 Charles Taylor Book Award committee of the American Political Science Association's Interpretive Methodologies and Methods Group. If you like this episode of New Books in Interpretive Political and Social Science then you might also be interested in Mona El Ghobashy on Bread and Freedom: Egypt's Revolutionary Situation, or Gerard McCarthy on Outsourcing the Polity: Non-state Welfare, Inequality and Resistance in Myanmar.

To attain the level of resilience that cultural rewilding calls for, requires moving away from an economy based on extraction for profit that lays waste to local ecosystems and destroys ancient ways that people have lived from the land. To move away we need alternatives, and examples of how other people have found and maintained sustainability. How have humans lived in a myriad of ways for millennia without destroying their land and not living in greatly unequal societies? What is a subsistence economy and what makes them so resilient? To talk with me about this today is Dr. Helga VierichDr. Vierich was born in Bremen, west Germany and immigrated with her parents to Canada, growing up in North Bay, Ontario. She began her studies at the University of Toronto in 1969. From 1977-1980, as part of her research, she lived in the Kalahari among hunter-gatherers in the Kweneng district with Richard B. Lee supervising. During this time she worked as a consultant on the effects of the extreme drought in Botswana. She was awarded her Ph.D. by the University of Toronto in 1981 and went to work as a Principal Scientist at the West African Economics Research Program, International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (headquarters in Hyderabad, India). She worked as a visiting professor of Anthropology at the University of Kentucky from 1985 to 1987, then as an adjunct professor of Anthropology at the University of Alberta from 1989 to 1997. From 1999-2022 she worked as an instructor at the Yellowhead Tribal College in Alberta. Now retired, she spends her time on a rural farm with her husband.

Interviewing guest Ellen Mennell Part 2
The University of Connecticut took home the NCAA Division 1 men's basketball tournament this week. South Carolina won the women's championship. This year, twelve teams from the Gulf South made it to the so-called Big Dance, including the Grambling State men's team and LSU's women's team. Smaller schools in the region were eliminated right away, but getting a shot at the championship can still make a huge difference beyond the basketball court. Joseph King, reporter with the Gulf States Newsroom, explains why. Festival season is upon New Orleans. That means music, food and lots of tourists. Last year, the city saw over 17.5 million visitors and the city projects tourism numbers this year to continue their steady recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. What made New Orleans' economy so tourist-heavy in the first place? Laine Kaplan-Levenson, host of the podcast TriPod, took a look at that question back in 2016. We listen back to the episode today. With today's global supply chain, subsistence agriculture might seem like a thing of the past. That's not entirely the case, according to Helen Regis, a cultural anthropologist at LSU and author of Bayou Harvest: Subsistence Practice in Coastal Louisiana. Regis has spent years observing farming and food preparation along the Gulf Coast, where she's gained insights into hunting, fishing, gardening, and more. ____ Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Dr. Alan Harrelson is a history professor at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. In his dissertation he focused on Agrarian Society in the Antebellum South. He also has a successful Youtube channel, website and podcast in which he discusses these ideas as a corollary to one of his passions, tobacco pipes and the accompanying lifestyle. I discovered Dr. Harrelson some months back through his Youtube channel and have enjoyed his ideas on what it means to be an agrarian as well as the history of agriculture looked at from this perspective. I also find myself aligned with him when it comes to personal choices of how to live life, why we bought agricultural land and the rewards that come from such choices. I am thrilled that he is joining me on today's episode.
An interesting dynamic of our world today is the news cycle. We know about more of the most horrific events and suffering in the world than any of our predecessors. However, it turns out that there are a lot of very bad stories out there, each of them compelling. As such, we have the strange phenomena of hearing about something in another part of the world that causes us great consternation in the short term, but is then replaced by another horrific event that causes us to slowly withdraw concern or even forget about the first event. And the cycle repeats itself. Just because we experience this phenomena, does not mean that any of the problems we initially heard about have been fixed or even improved. It just means that they are not being talked about on a large scale any longer. But somewhere, there are people still dealing with the issue that still need help. In 2021, the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan after being omnipresent in that country for two decades. This created a vacuum that the Taliban quickly filled, and it put the people who worked with the U.S. in our efforts in peril. This was a great crisis and huge news story at the time, and it compelled me to interview Caroline Clarin, a woman who I had read about that was helping families from Afghanistan that she had come to know when she was doing agricultural work there between 2009 and 2011. On today's show we are following up with Caroline. She is still very involved in this work, and her efforts have now evolved into a 501(c)(3) called the Friends And Allies Project where she and her team are working to support five families who made it out of Afghanistan but are stuck in Pakistan trying to get Visas that will allow them to come to the U.S.
On tomorrow's Friday episode I am featuring an episode with previous guest, Caroline Clarin. Caroline first came on the show in 2021 during Christmas, and we discussed the situation with people in Afghanistan who had helped out the United States since the war began there in 2001. The United States had just pulled out of Afghanistan, and many of them were now in danger because of the return of the Taliban. On tomorrow's show, Caroline is coming back on to give us an update on that situation, so today I'll play her first episode again to give you an idea of the before and after picture.

Interview with Ilarion Merculieff–Filmmaker Robert Lundahl. Ilarion Merculieff (Larry) tells stories from his Pribilof Island homeland of St. Paul and St. George Islands in the middle of the Bering Sea, 250 miles north of the Aleutians. He expresses concerns about Arctic ecosystems generally, and in specific as related to multiple species of birds, marine mammals, and fish, including the Yukon River and it's salmon. He discusses TKW, Traditonal Knowledge and Wisdom, and the role it plays in resource management, and the structural thought process behind it as a science. Update on the Northern Bering Sea Climate Resilience Area. The erosion of shorelines & the thawing of permafrost in many Alaska Native villages, making them increasingly vulnerable to flooding & landslides. Several villages have had to relocate to higher ground. The exact number of villages that have had to move is not clear, it is estimated that at least 31 villages in Alaska are currently facing the threat of flooding & erosion & many more are at risk in the future. • What is the public health cost for climate change related trauma & rising subsistence expenses for Alaska natives? The impacts are significant, such as flooding & erosion can disrupt traditional ways of life & lead to emotional & mental stress, including depression & anxiety. Subsistence hunting & fishing are also affected by changes in weather patterns & the loss of sea ice, leading to food insecurity & malnutrition. These factors can contribute to a range of physical & mental health problems, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, & suicide. • What costs for public health can be avoided by early & sufficient federal investments in health, infrastructure energy & food production in Alaska native villages? Early & sufficient federal investments in health, infrastructure, energy, & food production in Alaska Native villages could help to mitigate many of the public health costs associated with climate change. For example, investments in infrastructure such as sea walls, shoreline protection, & water and sewer systems can help to protect villages from flooding and erosion. Investments in renewable energy sources can help to reduce dependence on fossil fuels & improve air quality, which can have positive health impacts. Investing in local food production through programs such as community gardens & greenhouses can help to improve food security & reduce dependence on expensive, imported foods. Additionally, investing in mental health & counseling services can help to support individuals & families affected by climate change-related trauma. This help can protect & improve the health & wellbeing of Alaska Native communities, & reduce the long-term public health costs. • How can Educational Programs help native communities change federal policies benefiting tribes & supporting climate equity? Here are a few important roles in helping Native communities change federal policies that benefit tribes & support climate equity: 1. Community Engagement & Education: Raise awareness & educate community members about the impacts & climate equity. 2.Leadership development: Trainings & leadership development opportunities for community members, helping to build capacity within the community to advocate for policy changes at the local, state & federal level. 3.Research and Data: Research that documents the impacts of climate change on native communities, & provide data to support policy changes that benefit tribes & support climate equity. 4.Networking & Coalition Building: Connect native communities with other organizations, researchers, & advocacy groups working on climate equity and environmental justice, help build a stronger more cohesive movement for change. 5.Law & Policy Education: Training on laws related to climate change & environmental justice, empowering knowledge. ©Copyright Agence RLA, LLC, Robert Lundahl. 2021.

Jake was born and raised in Northern Canada. Adventurous and inquisitive, he followed his gut to Hawaiʻi for college as a D1 athlete. During his years at Mānoa, he was taken in by a Molokaʻi family which was where his relationship with Axis deer began—over holidays and summer breaks, alongside multi-generational subsistence hunters. Over the years, his fascination and respect for this animal grew and after founding a research-based non-profit, the Axis Deer Institute, he took on several projects managing Hawaiʻiʻs invasive ungulates. Maui Nui grew out of his passion to create a full-bodied solution that saw Hawaiʻiʻs deer as both a non-native species in need of active population management as well as an incredible food resource whose sustainability and viability needed to be ensured in the long term. For Jake, hunting and environmentalism in Hawaiʻi are inseparable parts of the same set of actions and concerns. Jake as always walks us through his life before now. He was a college and professional Volleyball player, went to school in Hawai'i where he quickly put down roots and started his trajectory towards Maui Nui Venison. I met him hunting with some buddies and have been watching his conservation efforts since. He gave us a little insight into his experience since the fires that tore through Maui as well as some community building and service efforts Maui Nui is incorporating. This is a long overdue conversation and we will run it back. Can't wait brother. Yall enjoy and go get some Maui Nui venison. ORGANIFI GIVEAWAY Keep those reviews coming in!

As Western Alaska communities face a shocking decline in the salmon runs they depend on, fishing operations called factory trawlers are drawing more scrutiny than ever before — the vessels are not going after salmon, but they can still scoop some up in their nets.With support from the Pulitzer Center, the Daily News recently published a two-part series diving into factory trawling in the Bering Sea, the industry's impact on Alaska's salmon runs, and Community Development Quota groups, which have become powerful players in fishery politics.In this episode, host Elizabeth Harball talks to longtime fisheries reporter Hal Bernton, who went out on a factory trawler this August to report the first story in the series.For more local and state news, subscribe to the Anchorage Daily News today.This episode of ADN Politics is sponsored by SteamDot Coffee.
Since time immemorial, the Kuskokwim River in Southwest Alaska has fed Native families. Now, after years of failed salmon runs, Native families are confronting the potential loss of this vital resource. At the same time they are caught in the middle of a legal battle between the federal government and the state over how best to manage fishing in rivers that flow through both jurisdictions. The Alaska Federation of Natives just joined several tribal groups, taking he federal government's side in the fight. We'll look at what's at stake for Alaska Native residents in this latest chapter in the evolving fight over subsistence fishing. GUESTS Curt Chamberlain (member of the Native Village of Aniak), assistant general counsel for the Calista Corporation Serena Fitka (Yup'ik), executive director of the Yukon River Drainage Fisheries Association Dr. Mike Williams (Yupiaq), vice chair of the Kuskokwim River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission

Subsistence fishing employs hundreds of millions of people around the world. It's an enormous business worth trillions of dollars. It's also a dirty business. High-cost diesel motors and expensive, inefficient lights consume huge amounts of fossil fuels, leaving a considerable carbon footprint. But these lights are essential. Venturing out onto the high seas in a small boat is always dangerous, but night fishing is absolutely treacherous, so although good lighting saves lives, it also requires a lot of power. We follow the female scientists who are developing solar tech to help fisherfolk in South East Asia reduce their impact on the environment, improve their health and put money back in their pockets.

Jusper Machogu lives in Kisii, Kenya, where he and his family grow corn and other crops on a one-acre plot of land. In this episode, Jusper, who writes about his daily life on Substack, explains how little electricity his family uses, (less than 200 kilowatt-hours per year), why Africa “cannot develop without fossil fuels,” what climate activists get wrong, the soaring cost of fertilizer, and why if farmers like him don't have “access to fertilizer, we are doomed.” (Recorded July 11, 2023.)
“Aquinas's Proof for the Human Soul's Subsistence” by Thomas Aquinas College Lectures & Talks
Subsistence–the way we acquire our food–is a central aspect of rewilding. To talk with me both about the anthropology of subsistence but also the challenges and practicality of it is James V. Morgan. James is a former professional anthropologist who has spent nearly two decades studying and working with indigenous hunter-gatherers on three continents. He has spent years trying to understand the relationship between anarchist theory and action and indigenous politics and lifeways. He is currently working on three different books surrounding these topics titled, "Human Rewilding in the 21st Century: Why Anthropologists Fail" and “Anarchy After Graeber” with the third book yet to be titled. His previous writings have appeared in Hunter-Gatherer Research, Human Ecology, Oak Journal, Black and Green Review, Wild Resistance, and Alaska Fish and Wildlife News. More than only pursuing research and writing, Jaime is also an active subsistence hunter and forager, extensively involved in the material arts of rewilding and bushcraft, mostly off-grid in the far north.NOTES:Anarcho-Primitivism/Primal AnarchyGreen Anarchy MagazineOak JournalBlack and Green Review/Wild ResistanceUltrasocial: The Evolution of Human Nature and the Quest for a Sustainable Future by John GowdyPhoto by Elly Furlong on UnsplashSupport the show
