Nick is joined by Tom Ferguson, Founder and Managing Partner at Burnt Island Ventures, one of the first venture capital firms focused on investing in startups driving innovation in water-focused applications and industries. Despite touching nearly everything on Earth, water is an under-discussed, under-invested in, and under-resourced category. As a result, innovation in the space often lags other areas that get more attention, whether fintech, crypto, or AI. At the same time, water is one of several categories that could see the most disruption due to climate change. Hence, Tom & team are on a mission to not just invest well in water but to grow the category as a whole. As part of their conversation, Nick & Tom also discussed:Scope & Definition: Nick & Tom spend time breaking down and decomposing what is even meant by ‘water' when we try to understand it as an industry. Portfolio Companies: Tom runs through seminal examples of several portfolio companies that underscore the types of companies Burnt Island Ventures invests in and the impact they're targetingStorytelling and Intangibles: Nick & Tom stress the need for better storytelling in the water sector to attract more investment and public interest.Timestamps:00:01:23 - Tom's Journey into Water Investment00:03:23 - Breaking Down the Water Investment Landscape00:06:09 - Challenges in Water Sector Investment & Reframing the Industry00:13:07 - Burnt Island Ventures' Mission00:15:51 - Highlighting Portfolio Companies00:22:03 - FundOne Portfolio Overview00:27:00 - The Overlooked Importance of Water in Various Sectors00:34:17 - The Importance of Storytelling + The Role of Investors in Water Sector00:37:00 - Cross-Cutting Issues in Climate and Energy00:39:53 - The Role of Water in Climate AdaptationDon't miss out on this podcast if you're interested in learning more about the state of climate tech, the energy transition, and investing in water and what the ‘water' category as a whole even entails and represents.

Paul Jay interviews Tom Ferguson about the debt ceiling crisis in the United States. Ferguson explains that the debate over the debt ceiling is largely theater, with both Democrats and Republicans working together to cut spending while maintaining the appearance of opposition. He criticizes the Democrats for not raising the debt ceiling earlier when they had the opportunity and suggests that their reluctance is due to their desire to secure more campaign funding for future elections. Ferguson argues that the spending cuts rolled back are not significant enough to impact inflation and proposes alternative measures, such as taxing the wealthy and reducing defense spending, to address the issue. He also discusses the influence of money in politics and the Democratic Party's efforts to weaken the progressive wing.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is not only a biological issue, but a complex social problem. As a consequence, changing the way patients, healthcare professionals and policymakers think about antibiotics will require input from both the natural and social sciences. In March 2021, the Uppsala Health Summit on “Managing antimicrobial resistance through behaviour change” tackled this very problem. We spoke to three key participants – Otto Cars, Eldar Shafir and Vanessa Carter – to learn more.Tune in to find out:how the COVID-19 pandemic might affect AMR globallyhow the context around us influences the decisions we makehow patients’ stories can help communicate the urgency of AMRWant to know more?The Uppsala Health Summit is a recurring international policy arena for dialogue on healthcare challenges and how we can overcome them.Otto Cars is founder and now senior advisor to ReACT (Action on Antibiotic Resistance). He set the scene at Uppsala Health Summit 2021 with a lecture on the current status of AMR globally. In a recent interview, he described how to make the most of the COVID-19 momentum to spur much-needed action in the AMR sphere.Eldar Shafir is professor of behavioural science and public policy at Princeton University, with a special interest in the effect of poverty on decision-making. In his keynote lecture at the summit, he commented on the AMR problem from a behavioural perspective. He points us to a 2016 research paper on the effect of behavioural interventions on inappropriate antibiotic prescribing.Vanessa Carter is a South Africa-based patient advocate for AMR and e-patient scholar at Stanford University Medicine X. She suggests reading Tom Ferguson’s white paper on e-patients and their contribution to healthcare.This episode was produced in collaboration with The AMR Studio podcast at Uppsala Antibiotic Center.

Looking for a way to improve your prayer life? Then join the countless numbers of people who have found inspiration, guidance, and a deep connection with God through the Book of Common Prayer. Next to the King James Bible, there is no other English book that has been as influential on Western culture as the Book of Common Prayer (BCP). Countless lives have been transformed by this beautiful compilation of liturgies, psalms, creeds, and prayers. First written more than 500 years ago, the BCP has been adapted to the local custom of the churches that make up the Anglican Communion, producing a rich array of spiritual readings. While touching on the origins and development of the first English prayer books, this course focuses on the American Book of Common Prayer, 1979. It is the first in an 8-part series called, 'Introducing the Book of Common Prayer.' It is called 'An American Prayer Book, A Global Prayer Book.' And in this episode, Tom Ferguson, dean of Bexley Seabury Federation, breaks down the subject with four lectures called, The, Book, Common, and Prayer
Abby Innes (LSE), Antonio Andreoni (SOAS), Komon Doulis (BEIS), Tom Ferguson (INET), Geoffrey Owen (LSE), Janet Williamson (Trade Union Council) Chair: Abby Innes, London School of Economics Presenter: Antonio Andreoni, SOAS University of London Panel Discussion: Komon Doulis, Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), UK Government, Tom Ferguson, Institute for New Economic Thinking, Geoffrey Owen, London School of Economics, Janet Williamson, Trade Union Council Innovation by Britain’s firms will be a key determinant of national success in an increasingly competitive global environment for high-value industries. As Britain considers how to develop an industrial strategy ‘fit for the future’, however, the decline in long-term productivity in the UK continues to puzzle managers, academics and policy-makers. Recent research has highlighted the need to examine sectoral dynamics and include questions of industrial policy in a relevant historical context. Such work has helped to focus on the specific British industries and firms where issues of competitiveness, productivity and innovation need to be studied in detail. Conceptually, however, it remains necessary to enhance our understanding of the interplay between the development of innovative capabilities and the specific governance conditions that are required to generate sustained productivity growth at firm and industrial-ecosystem level. Developing such capabilities in innovative enterprises requires the commitment of financial resources to collective and cumulative learning processes within both the firm and its ecosystem. This commitment relies on the abilities and the incentives of those executives who exercise strategic control over the corporate allocation of financial resources and returns. We thus need to consider whether strategic decision-making within UK firms over the past two decades has been influenced by destructive financialization practices. The GoFinPro project has added to existing research into issues of productivity and innovation in UK industry by conducting historical firm-level research in order to build comparative studies of firms and sectors to examine the potential influence of financialisation practices on the development of UK firms within their sectoral and national specificities. The key manufacturing sectors of pharmaceuticals and aerospace were chosen to investigate indicators that link changes in corporate governance and financial behaviour to innovative capabilities and productivity performance. The GoFinPro Conference to be held at SOAS will bring together academics, policy makers and industry experts to discuss the findings of the study. The comparison of financialisation metrics of top UK firms with those of US and other European countries will consider how such practices have influenced productivity and competitiveness and what policy measures have facilitated or encouraged their adoption. The sectoral studies highlight the specific dynamics that explain why some UK firms have become more prone to value extraction that is not justified by value creation. The implications of the findings for future UK policy on corporate governance will be subject to debate. The GoFinPro project has been funded by the Gatsby Foundation and has been carried out at SOAS University of London in collaboration with Institut Mines Telecom Business School in France.

The more informed and the more diversity of the information that is hitting your employees, the better and more imaginative they are going to be at solving the problems in front of them.” “The older generation is getting accustomed to using technology, the current and rising generation likes technology and innovation, and the next generation will expect it.”— Clifford Chan, East Bay Municipal Utility District The culture of your organization is what people in your organization do when no one is watching. It defines the environment in which people work. It’s difficult to build. It requires a relentless drumbeat. The mission statement should be the prism through which all things are run. Treat your employees like customers. You are selling them a product all the way through. They are buying something from you. They are spending their most valuable commodity with you—their time. Show Notes: [8:02] We talk some of the (troubling) statistics related to workforce and succession in the water industry. At its root, succession planning is about saving the aggregated expertise of our retiring water professionals so that we retain that knowledge and wisdom when they leave.

The more informed and the more diversity of the information that is hitting your employees, the better and more imaginative they are going to be at solving the problems in front of them.” [19:44] How does Imagine H2O ensure diversity in their programming? [23:16] Sometimes you don’t know what’s going to come out of bringing a diverse group of people together, but that’s ok. The key is to create the conditions to have conversations that are differentiated and honest and emergent in the moment because that’s where the excitement happens. “Let’s see where the rabbit hole goes because that’s how you get to the new stuff.” [24:10] What are some ways we can ensure we’re sending the right people and they’re bringing back value to the organization? [29:48] Tom and Nashelley share some examples of organizations that do a good job at cultivating talent from within. Just collecting a pay check is no...

(https://www.theh2duo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Water-in-Real-Life-Catalyst-Tribal-Collaboration.png) Takeaways: In early 2018, Greg Wukasch, External Affairs manager at the San Antonio Water System asked Stephanie and Arianne if they would partner with them to create a summit built for water educators and communicators by water educators and communicators. They said yes before he finished the question. Catalyst follows the Rogue Water ABCS of water communication which are assessment, branding, content, and strategy. We believe that nailing these core basics directly impacts your ability to move the needle forward for your education programs, your communication campaigns and your organization. At Catalyst 2018, we ended with a section called Tribal Collaboration, where we had three industry rock stars talk about the power of collaboration in our industry from a local, national, and global perspective. These are snippets from our podcast interviews with them leading up to Catalyst. EP011: (https://www.theh2duo.com/11/) Tom Ferguson, VP of Programming at ImagineH2O, talks the incredible importance of communication to the water sector from his global and entrepreneurial perspective. EP002 (https://www.theh2duo.com/002-catalyst-mastermind-speaker-series-travis-loop/) Travis Loop, Director of Communication and Outreach, Water Environment Federation, talks the importance of understanding your audience when it comes to effective communication. EP008 (https://www.theh2duo.com/8/) Lynne Christopher, Education Coordinator, San Antonio Water System tells us about their CORE program for San Antonio ISD teachers and the ripples that program is already making. So without further ado, let’s get to the show. Catalyst: Registration for Catalyst 2019 goes live on Jan 14. Catalyst takes place June 19-21, 2019 in San Antonio, Texas on the San Antonio Riverwalk. Due to the logistics of this unique summit spots are limited. We can only accommodate up to 70-75 people.

Episode #191: The CEO of Rise Biscuits and Donuts tells a story about the critical moment that allowed him to succeed in life. Recorded live at our Second Chances show on February 3, 2018 at The ArtsCenter in Carrboro.
(https://www.theh2duo.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/1074-x-366-podcast-template-2-1.png) Tom Ferguson is the Vice President of Programming for (https://www.imagineh2o.org/) , charged with developing the accelerator model as well as building out the policy and leadership capabilities as they scale. Tom comes to Imagine H2O from strategy roles at Project Frog (a San Francisco green buildings company) and Tamar Energy (an AD network developed in London). Prior to business school, he spent three and a half years with ERM, the sustainability consultancy, where he was an engagement manager. Tom holds an MBA from Harvard Business School, and an MA in Politics from Edinburgh University. You can check out our first interview with Tom on notepad (http://www.getrocketbook.com?rfsn=1462782.87c60) in hand. Takeaways: When we get caught up too closely in our own work, we lose sight of the general, the simple, the basic principles that are the nonnegotiables to success. We need to learn to stop and take the time to really focus on the fundamentals. Focus! It’s so simple but so often overlooked. Everyone has an “elephant” to eat. You have to master focus in order to tackle it one bite at a time. Knowledge compounds. Imagine the potential for your organization if you made learning a priority and encouraged ongoing learning. Imagine if every person in your organization became 15% more knowledgeable because of it and that 15% compounded each year across every employee.

This episode, Tom Ferguson (who is looking to digitise his vinyl collection) wrote to ask my thoughts on 19″ rack mountable flash recorders. He’s been looking at the Gemini DRP-1, which doesn’t look too bad (from the specs), although I did have a couple of concerns. Some alternate products I suggested he look at included: … Continue reading "Episode 139 – Flash recorders and Ozone"

In addition, they write The People's Pharmacy® syndicated newspaper column, distributed by King Features®, co-host an award-winning health talk show on public radio, and speak frequently on health issues. Here's how they got started.

Joe began writing a book to explain medications in an easy-to-understand, friendly style. His master's degree in pharmacology from the University of Michigan and his teaching experience with medical students prepared him for this undertaking. Terry graduated magna cum laude with an AB from Bryn Mawr College in 1969, majoring in anthropology. She completed her doctoral degree from the University of Michigan and the Graedons moved to Durham, NC.

Joe was conferred the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters honoris causa from Long Island University in 2006 as one of the country's leading drug experts for the consumer. Joe served as an editorial advisor to Men's Health Newsletter and to Prevention Magazine. Joe is an advisory board member of the American Botanical Council (Herbalgram) and he has served as a member of the Board of Visitors, UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, since 1989.

Money in politics -- it's not AN issue, it's THE issue, according to our guest today.In this episode of Radio Free Dylan, we talk to Tom Ferguson, Professor of Political Science at the University of Massachusetts Boston, he’s a Senior Fellow at the Roosevelt Institute, and member of the Advisory Board of the Institute for New Economic Thinking. Says Tom, "Look, everything is for sale, that’s the logic of the new Congress there.Since the ‘90s, everything’s auctioned, and that’s what the bulk of the population doesn’t understand this. The insiders know it but everybody else is still in the dark.There was some columnist in [The New York Times] who an ex-Congressman about what was going wrong in Congress.And finally the guy mentions towards the end, 'Oh, yes, there’s this terrible money problem. 'You know, look, that’s the problem. You’re selling everything." Tom concludes with a statement that we couldn't agree with more -- "You probably can’t fix much in the United States if you’re going to allow the policy to just continue to be sold in every dimension."
