The combination of warmth and humidity in Missouri make it a fantastic place … for ticks. We learn what makes the state even more hospitable to these bloodsucking insects and how we can protect ourselves from tick-borne maladies like alpha-gal syndrome, which makes people allergic to red meat. We also get an update on the nearly 100 illegally transported Antilles pinktoe tarantulas that've been living at the Missouri Botanical Gardens Butterfly House since they were seized by federal agents in February.
Twenty minutes of walking daily could save over 25% of all health costs. Imagine walking to the store for food shopping and having a robot carry home your food. You get the health benefits, plus no need to. This idea of machines working seamlessly as humans do is a flip of the traditional approach to machines replacing certain humans. Twenty minutes of walking every day will cut health costs by 25%. That is the equivalent of $500bn a year in GDP. Today's guest talks about a different way of thinking about autonomous vehicles as partners with citizens walking their urban communities by 2033.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today, we will discuss another topic of how to reach our urban communities with the gospel. How can we help our community when they are not interested in the traditional method of helping others know about Christ. Listen as our hosts Carlos, Demond and Charles share their experience about the topic of sharing Christ.
Most of us are used to shopping in stores where one section is devoted to fresh produce, but the rest of the food for sale is either boxed, canned, or shrink-wrapped. Jamila Norman is an urban farmer and food advocate teaching the world about the benefits of growing our own food and eating fresh fruits and vegetables—whether grown on a community farm or in our own backyards. Norman is an internationally recognized urban farmer and food activist based in Atlanta, Ga. In 2010, she founded her own independent organic urban farm, Patchwork City Farms, which she operates full time. Her farm and work has been featured in publications such as SeedStock.com, Modern Farmer Magazine, The Library of Congress and Southern Foodways Alliance oral history project. She is currently the manager and one of the founding managers of the Southwest Atlanta Growers Cooperative, which is centered around black urban farmers in Atlanta's booming urban agriculture movement. She served as U.S. delegate to Slow Food's Terra Madre Salone del Gusto in Turin, Italy in 2014. Norman is also co-founder of EAT MOVE BeWELL, an initiative that is focused on including more fresh and living foods into our diet, promoting movement for health and wellness, and advocates for communities of color. She hosts “Homegrown,” a show on the Magnolia Network, which is currently on its third season, helping families transform their outdoor spaces into backyard farms. Most recently, Norman has joined the board of Georgia Organics, a non-profit organization which bridges together organic food from Georgia farms to Georgia families.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're joined by the Denver Compost Collective to discuss the concept of urban composting and utilizing compost as a tool for building community. How can we leverage our mutual understanding of the importance of soil health and local, healthy food to build inroads with our neighbors? And more importantly, how can their model be replicated across urban spaces globally? The Denver Compost Collective provides a weekly compost collection service for apartment dwellers. Their community farm partners regularly receive their compost and add it to their soils, which supports the soil greatly: improving its structure, adding fertility for crops, retaining water, and reintroducing critically important microbes back into the earth. This supports the farm's efforts to grow healthy, natural food for their communities right in Denver.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics, “urban educators report the growing challenges of educating urban youth who are increasingly presenting problems such as poverty, limited English proficiency, family instability, and poor health.” Overcoming these obstacles and educating young people in urban areas can prove challenging. However, Tracey Sigers wants to change the narrative. Rather than look at urban education as challenging and difficult, she wants employers and teachers to see these areas and students as “untapped resources”. Tracey Sigers is the Department Chair of Information Technology at the National Center for Urban Solutions in Columbus, Ohio. Tracey holds an MBA with an emphasis in technology leadership, a bachelor's degree in information technology, and an associate degree in technology. Tracey has twenty years of business background in computer systems management, college study skills, and Microsoft software experience. In addition to her experience with Microsoft, Tracy also works with the Adobe Certified Professional program, the Entrepreneurship and Small Business certification, the IT Specialist program, and the IC3 Digital Literacy certification. In this episode, we sat down with Tracey to discuss why certification is valuable in these “untapped” communities. She shares her experience with helping students certify their skills, helping them find jobs, and how employers in the community are taking notice. Connect with Tracey (and the other CERTIFIED Ambassadors) here: https://certiport.pearsonvue.com/Blog/2022/May/Meet-the-CERTIFIED-Ambassadors. You can also learn more about the value of certification here: https://certiport.pearsonvue.com/About/The-value-of-certification. Podcast edited and managed by Haili Murch LLC.
