IntroductionPeople with disabilities are disproportionately affected by climate change; however, they have been traditionally excluded from conversations about national plans and responses to climate change. Including the disabled community in decision making is key to addressing potential harms and designing effective, inclusive solutions. Disabled Community Disproportionately AffectedMany studies provide empirical evidence that climate change poses a particularly great risk for the disabled community. A study in Australia documented that between 2001 and 2018,  89% of heat wave fatalities were people with some type of disability, and actually many had multiple disabilities both physical and mental. Additionally, after Hurricane Harvey in Harris County, Texas in 2017, people with disabilities were disproportionately affected and exposed to harms. Areas flooded by Hurricane Harvey were overrepresented by disabled populations. The highest proportion of people living in public housing being exposed to environmental hazards were people with disabilities. While people with disabilities are particularly vulnerable to natural disasters, they have often been excluded from decision-making surrounding climate change, including in  drafting national plans and climate responses. Inclusivity and Accessibility In PracticeEngaging people with disabilities in developing, designing and implementing climate resilient solutions can help protect their livelihoods and autonomy. Meaningful participation can look different in many ways including conducting research to have more data on how people with disabilities are affected and specific ways to help. As well, to develop new technologies and innovations that assist people with disabilities in climate emergencies like early warning systems, communication, and adaptive infrastructure. Spaces can be more inclusive and accessible to people with disabilities. More research is needed on infrastructure design that both reduces emissions and simultaneously will not put disabled people at more risk in climate emergencies, for example, adding ramps and automatic door openers, widening doorways, and having accessible bathrooms. It is also important to host public events in accessible locations to ensure that people with disabilities feel welcomed and valued. Methods of communication should also be accessible like using captions in videos, adding text descriptions and making online materials that work with screen readers so that low vision individuals can also access them. Disability-Inclusive Climate SolutionsIn addition to educating the community about the importance of disability-inclusive climate solutions and for the disabled community to be educated and equipped for climate disaster risk mitigation, it is vital for the disabled community to be part of the large-scale decision making process and promote meaningful participation. By providing people with disabilities with a greater understanding of the impacts that climate change will have on their lives, then they can be more able to respond to effects of climate change and access the resources they need. Expert Dr. Michael Stein points out that everyone knows their own needs and livelihoods best; hence, it is vital to reach out to the disabled community and include them in the conversation and decision making for climate solutions that will support the disabled community who are disproportionately affected by the effects of climate change. About our guestMichael Stein is the co-founder of the Harvard Law School Project on Disability. As a world leader on disability law, Dr. Stein participated in the drafting of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Dr. Stein became the first known person with a disability to be a member of the Harvard Law Review. He has received numerous awards in recognition of his work in disability rights. ResourcesAvci, Bratchell, Browning, Coates, Gissing, and Van Leeuwen, Heat wave fatalities, (2001-2008).Chakraborty, Collins, and Grineski, Hurricane Harvey and people with disabilities, (2019).Akyeampong, Alford, Chakraborty, Daniels-Mayes, Gallegos, Grech, Groce, Gurung, Hans, Harpur, Jodoin, Lord, Macanawai, McClain-Nhlapo, Stein, Susteren, Advancing Disability-Inclusive Climate Research, (2024).Szekeres, 8 Ways  to Include People with Disabilities in Climate Action, (2023).Nina D.

Maanden na het gedwongen einde van Veronica in 1974 vonden in het geheim gesprekken plaats tussen oud-medewerkers van de zender en Sylvain Tack, eigenaar van een van de twee zeezenders die de wet trotseerden. De vraag lag op tafel: kon Mi Amigo worden omgedoopt tot Radio Veronica? In deze aflevering van Tivoli Road duiken we diep in dit bijzondere hoofdstuk uit de radiohistorie.(Met dank aan Rudy Dero) – Audio © Veronica Omroep Organisatie - Foto: Bart van Leeuwen

US President Trump has shocked the globe with the announcement that it was Ukraine that started the war with Russia. He also claimed Volodymyr Zelenskyy was a dictator because he had, quite legally, cancelled elections during this war. Talks have been conducted in Saudi Arabia without Ukraine, which Zelenskyy was unsurprisingly not happy about.

'Alles wat ik deed was gewoon top en alles ging recht de kruising in. Dat is ook wel lekker hoor. Ik kan het zeker aanraden om even in een momentum te zitten, haha.' In een nieuwe aflevering van 30 MINUTEN RAUW praat ik een half uur lang met de medeoprichtger en gitarist van Kane: Dennis van Leeuwen.

It is an intuitive truth that religious beliefs are different from ordinary factual beliefs. We understand that a belief in God or the sacredness of scripture is not the same as believing that the sun will rise again tomorrow or that flipping the switch will turn on the light.  In Religion as Make Believe: A Theory of Belief, Imagination, and Group Identity (Harvard UP, 2023), Neil Van Leeuwen draws on psychological, linguistic, and anthropological evidence to show that psychological mechanisms underlying religious beliefs function like those that enable imaginative play.  When someone pretends, they navigate the world on two levels simultaneously, or as Van Leeuwen describes it, by consulting two maps. The first map is that of factual, mundane reality. The second is a map of the imagined world. This second map is then superimposed on top of the first to create a multi-layered cognitive experience that is consistent with both factual and imaginary understandings.  With this model in mind, we can understand religious belief, which Van Leeuwen terms religious "credence", as a form of make-believe that people use to define their group identity and express values they hold as sacred. Religious communities create a religious-credence map which sits on top of their factual-belief map, creating an experience where ordinary objects and events are rich with sacred and supernatural significance.  Recognizing that our minds process factual and religious beliefs in fundamentally different ways allows us to gain deeper understanding of the complex individual and group psychology of religious faith.

We understand that a belief in God or the sacredness of scripture is not the same as believing that the sun will rise again tomorrow or that flipping the switch will turn on the light.  In Religion as Make Believe: A Theory of Belief, Imagination, and Group Identity (Harvard UP, 2023), Neil Van Leeuwen draws on psychological, linguistic, and anthropological evidence to show that psychological mechanisms underlying religious beliefs function like those that enable imaginative play.  When someone pretends, they navigate the world on two levels simultaneously, or as Van Leeuwen describes it, by consulting two maps. The first map is that of factual, mundane reality. The second is a map of the imagined world. This second map is then superimposed on top of the first to create a multi-layered cognitive experience that is consistent with both factual and imaginary understandings.  With this model in mind, we can understand religious belief, which Van Leeuwen terms religious "credence", as a form of make-believe that people use to define their group identity and express values they hold as sacred. Religious communities create a religious-credence map which sits on top of their factual-belief map, creating an experience where ordinary objects and events are rich with sacred and supernatural significance.  Recognizing that our minds process factual and religious beliefs in fundamentally different ways allows us to gain deeper understanding of the complex individual and group psychology of religious faith.

Bij de geschiedenis van de straatbedekking staat zelden iemand stil. Maar nu is daarover en uniek boek verschenen: ‘The Thinking Foot – A Pedestrian Study of Paving' van kunst- en architectuurhistoricus Thomas A.P. van Leeuwen. Het is een unieke studie, omdat Van Leeuwen sporen volgt die anderen niet zien. Bijvoorbeeld het verband tussen de eerste rotondes en hoepeljurken en de gelijkenis van boomzwammen met anti-plasplaten in de stad tegen wildplassers, tot de functie van het plaveisel als tafellaken voor de beschaving. Amsterdam was de eerste geplaveide stad, lange tijd voor Londen en Parijs. En daar hoorde van alles bij, van duizenden lantaarns die de stad vanaf eind zeventiende eeuw verlichtten met een uitgekiend lichtplan en goed georganiseerde brandweer die overal tijdig kon komen, zodat de stad nooit is afgebrand. Van Leeuwen loopt met radiomaker Marten Minkema door de hoofdstad in de Spoor-documentaire ‘Tussen Voet en Aarde'. Ook wandelen ze door Londen, waar Jack de Ripper in de duistere stegen zijn gang kon gaan en het een hele toer was om de modderige en drukke straten over te steken. Bovenal ziet Van Leeuwen bestrating als een graadmeter van de civilisatie: ‘Kijk naar de straat en je weet hoe een maatschappij ervoor staat.' Programmamaker: Marten Minkema

On this week's episode, host Caryn Antonini is joined by Ben Van Leeuwen, Co-Founder and CEO of Van Leeuwen Artisanal ice cream. Ben, his brother Pete and partner, Laura O'Neill began their company in 2008, selling their quality, traditional ice cream out of a yellow ice cream truck on the streets of New York, with a mission to make good ice cream. And by ‘good' they mean using responsibly sourced, all natural ingredients. Their mission was met with the approval of many like-minded, happy customers with lines that demanded more trucks, production and eventually scoop shop locations. Today, Van Leeuwen operates over 50 scoop shops, their ice cream is sold in about 10,000 grocery stores, and and they also offer nationwide shipping. For more information on our guest:Homevanleeuwenicecream.com | Caryn Antoniniwww.cultivatedbycaryn.com@carynantonini@cultivatedbycarynshow###Get great recipes from Caryn at https://carynantonini.com/recipes/

IntroductionPeople with disabilities are disproportionately affected by climate change; however, they have been traditionally excluded from conversations about national plans and responses to climate change. Including the disabled community in decision making is key to addressing potential harms and designing effective, inclusive solutions. Disabled Community Disproportionately AffectedMany studies provide empirical evidence that climate change poses a particularly great risk for the disabled community. A study in Australia documented that between 2001 and 2018,  89% of heat wave fatalities were people with some type of disability, and actually many had multiple disabilities both physical and mental. Additionally, after Hurricane Harvey in Harris County, Texas in 2017, people with disabilities were disproportionately affected and exposed to harms. Areas flooded by Hurricane Harvey were overrepresented by disabled populations. The highest proportion of people living in public housing being exposed to environmental hazards were people with disabilities. While people with disabilities are particularly vulnerable to natural disasters, they have often been excluded from decision-making surrounding climate change, including in  drafting national plans and climate responses. Inclusivity and Accessibility In PracticeEngaging people with disabilities in developing, designing and implementing climate resilient solutions can help protect their livelihoods and autonomy. Meaningful participation can look different in many ways including conducting research to have more data on how people with disabilities are affected and specific ways to help. As well, to develop new technologies and innovations that assist people with disabilities in climate emergencies like early warning systems, communication, and adaptive infrastructure. Spaces can be more inclusive and accessible to people with disabilities. More research is needed on infrastructure design that both reduces emissions and simultaneously will not put disabled people at more risk in climate emergencies, for example, adding ramps and automatic door openers, widening doorways, and having accessible bathrooms. It is also important to host public events in accessible locations to ensure that people with disabilities feel welcomed and valued. Methods of communication should also be accessible like using captions in videos, adding text descriptions and making online materials that work with screen readers so that low vision individuals can also access them. Disability-Inclusive Climate SolutionsIn addition to educating the community about the importance of disability-inclusive climate solutions and for the disabled community to be educated and equipped for climate disaster risk mitigation, it is vital for the disabled community to be part of the large-scale decision making process and promote meaningful participation. By providing people with disabilities with a greater understanding of the impacts that climate change will have on their lives, then they can be more able to respond to effects of climate change and access the resources they need. Expert Dr. Michael Stein points out that everyone knows their own needs and livelihoods best; hence, it is vital to reach out to the disabled community and include them in the conversation and decision making for climate solutions that will support the disabled community who are disproportionately affected by the effects of climate change. About our guestMichael Stein is the co-founder of the Harvard Law School Project on Disability. As a world leader on disability law, Dr. Stein participated in the drafting of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Dr. Stein became the first known person with a disability to be a member of the Harvard Law Review. He has received numerous awards in recognition of his work in disability rights. ResourcesAvci, Bratchell, Browning, Coates, Gissing, and Van Leeuwen, Heat wave fatalities, (2001-2008).Chakraborty, Collins, and Grineski, Hurricane Harvey and people with disabilities, (2019).Akyeampong, Alford, Chakraborty, Daniels-Mayes, Gallegos, Grech, Groce, Gurung, Hans, Harpur, Jodoin, Lord, Macanawai, McClain-Nhlapo, Stein, Susteren, Advancing Disability-Inclusive Climate Research, (2024).Szekeres, 8 Ways  to Include People with Disabilities in Climate Action, (2023).Nina D.

Laura O'Neill is the co-founder of Van Leeuwen Ice Cream. O'Neill grew up in Melbourne and worked in event producing before deciding to travel the world. She met her future partner Ben Van Leeuwen on a fateful trip to London, and when she moved to New York to be with him, he proposed a wild idea: They should start a well-designed ice cream truck that sold delicious, high-quality ice cream. Thus, Van Leeuwen Ice Cream was born. In the last 15 years O'Neill, Van Leeuwen, and his brother Pete have positioned the brand as a household name—one synonymous with truly delectable ice cream. Van Leeuwen Ice Cream is sold in over 12,000 grocery stores, has over 50 stores in the United States, and recently opened its first-ever franchise store in Singapore. Later this year, the first-ever Van Leeuwen Flavor Lab will be opened in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We often assume that religious beliefs are no different in kind from ordinary factual beliefs—that believing in the existence of God or of supernatural entities that hear our prayers is akin to believing that May comes before June. Neuroscientist and philosopher Neil Van Leeuwen shows that, in fact, these two forms of belief are strikingly different. Our brains do not process religious beliefs like they do beliefs concerning mundane reality; instead, empirical findings show that religious beliefs function like the imaginings that guide make-believe play. Van Leeuwen argues that religious belief―which he terms religious “credence”―is best understood as a form of imagination that people use to define the identity of their group and express the values they hold sacred. When a person pretends, they navigate the world by consulting two maps: the first represents mundane reality, and the second superimposes the features of the imagined world atop the first. Drawing on psychological, linguistic, and anthropological evidence, Van Leeuwen posits that religious communities operate in much the same way, consulting a factual-belief map that represents ordinary objects and events and a religious-credence map that accords these objects and events imagined sacred and supernatural significance. It is hardly controversial to suggest that religion has a social function, but Religion as Make-Believe breaks new ground by theorizing the underlying cognitive mechanisms. Once we recognize that our minds process factual and religious beliefs in fundamentally different ways, we can gain deeper understanding of the complex individual and group psychology of religious faith. Neil Van Leeuwen is Associate Professor of Philosophy and Neuroscience at Georgia State University and a recipient of the European Commission's Marie Curie Fellowship. His research has been featured in The New York Times and The Atlantic and on NPR. His new book is Religion as Make-Believe: A Theory of Belief, Imagination and Group Identity. Shermer and Van Leeuwen discuss: his own personal religious journey (or lack thereof) • “believe,” “make-believe,” and “pretend play” • “taking God seriously” • 4 Principles of Factual Belief • Tanya Luhrmann's How God Becomes Real: Kindling the Presence of Invisible Others • willing suspension of disbelief • group identity • sacred values • The Puzzle of Religious Rationality • that voice we all hear in our heads • “hearing the voice of God” • hallucinations and psychoses • sleep paralysis • angels and demons • sensed presences • witches and witchcraft.

Today we'll be continuing with the second part of my discussion with Anne Van Leeuwen from Bodemzicht in the Netherlands. In case you missed the first part, I recommend going back for some context where Anne spoke about how she and her partner Ricardo got started in Farming and the evolution of their farm at the original location. In this second half we'll pick up where Anne begins to talk about their new farm, how they found it, and the vision they have for it's development. We also talk about the things that they are planning to do differently from the startup of the first farm given the unusual opportunity to start, relatively, from scratch.  We explore complementary farm enterprises to ensure regular cash flow, navigating the complexities of human relationships within a multistakeholder business, and by the end we also go over her membership and participation with the European Alliance for Regenerative Agriculture, or EARA, a new lobbying organization working to shape regenerative ag policy at the European Union level. 

Purpose.  What is our true purpose?Guest Geoff VanLeewen, a fellow disciple, joins us to share some of his journey.You will be encouraged and challenged as we talk about:What do you find security (salvation) in?"Salvation by the System"You find the end of your own means no matter what.If you are not saved by grace,  an authentic faith in Christ; then you are not saved (you can't truly be saved by works).How do we operate in the mission field around us?What is a healthy fear of God?What we do is a reflection of who we are.Masculinity involves rejecting passivity.Insecurity is something we all share in common.Letting God change our heart to be loving and missional.Some resources mentioned:Book of Jeremiah in the BibleCourage to Stand: Jeremiah's Message for Post Christian Times by Philip Graham Ryken,Raising a Modern Day Knight: A Father's Role in Guiding His Son to Authentic Manhood, by Robert Lewis.Geoff's talk at Grace Community Church on 12/16/2023https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOqQFNMcIuw"Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

Today's conversation is the first of a two part conversation with Anne Va Leeuwen from Bodemzicht in the Netherlands that I've been looking forward to for quite a few years. Anne and her husband Ricardo and I met for the first time at the first Climate Farmers conference in Germany 3 years ago. By then they were already building a reputation in the Dutch regen ag scene as leaders and innovators. Since then they've continued to take a leading role in bringing visibility to regenerative farming, the challenges that farmers face, and advocate for the creation of a regenerative agrifood system in the Netherlands and beyond. At the core of their advocacy has been the inspiring example of their own farm which not only produces high quality produce and animal products for locals, but has served as a hub for training, presentations and community gatherings since it began. I organized this interview with Anne as she and their organization have just completed a move to a new farm location. Their tenure at their original site was up and we had been in communication throughout their process of looking for new land and all of the planning, preparation, and logistics involved with moving their operation to a new place. Now that they're getting settled, I was excited to have Anne share her learnings and experience from the process on this show. Beyond the moving experience, Anne and I also cover a lot of other topics which range from the learnings they've gathered in the previous years both in pioneering their innovative farm model, regenerating their environment through conscious cultivation and care, navigating the challenges in the current farming system in the Netherlands, new cooperative farming models, lobbying for European Agriculture policy reform, and much more.

S04E76 A Tapestry of Care: The Human Side of Pediatric Surgery Leadership with Dr. Kathleen Van LeeuwenNavigating the high seas of pediatric surgery and healthcare leadership, guest Dr. Kathleen Van Leeuwen, a pediatric surgeon shares a wealth of experience and contributions to the field of surgery. The discussion spans Dr. Van Leeuwen's career trajectory, starting from her medical training alongside the host Dr. Sam Rhee, through her notable achievements in pediatric surgery and her leadership roles at Phoenix Children's Hospital. From the operating room's bright lights to the boardroom's strategic discussions, Dr. Van Leeuwen shares the delicate balance of managing hospital finances without losing the essence of patient-centered care. As a pediatric surgeon, she's not only skillful with a scalpel but also adept at crafting sustainable healthcare programs and touching the hearts of donors with compelling narratives. Her journey is a masterclass in cultivating a team's potential, making executive-level decisions, and advocating for patients with the same passion one reserves for family.Dr. Van Leeuwen's candid stories illuminate the landscape of healthcare, offering a rare glimpse into the tenacity required to lead and transform a male-dominated field. Our reflections turn to the deep bonds formed during our surgical training, the resilience it takes to navigate a demanding profession, and the immeasurable satisfaction of mentorship. The dedication to her work and her family resonates profoundly, reminding us that success is not just about professional achievements but also the richness of personal fulfillment.00:00 Welcome to Botox and Burpees: Surgeons Series00:38 Introducing Dr. Kathleen Van Leeuwen: A Pediatric Surgery Pioneer04:05 The Journey from Medical School to Pediatric Surgery Excellence13:16 Leadership, Mentorship, and Building a Positive OR Environment20:23 Embracing Change and Focusing on What Matters in Surgery28:12 Leadership Beyond the Operating Room: Building Teams and Programs32:53 Launching New Programs and Leading Through Challenges33:24 Navigating Gender Dynamics in Surgery and Leadership35:09 Breaking Barriers: First Female Program Chair in Pediatric Surgery39:39 Personal Growth and Embracing Gender Identity45:25 Reflecting on Career Choices and Future Plans47:59 Advocating for Health Equity and Sustainable Healthcare59:31 The Power of Emotional Intelligence and Supportive Networks#PediatricSurgery #WomenInSurgery #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalMentorship #SurgeryEducation #botoxandburpeespodcast #GenderEqualityInMedicine #PatientCare #MedicalLeadership #SurgicalInnovation #CommunityHealth #podcast #plasticsurgery

It doesn't sound very nice, but this week we're asking the question: is religious belief the same as factual knowledge, or is closer to imagination? Cognitive scientist and philosopher Neil Van Leeuwen is here to walk us through the theory he puts forward in his book Religion as Make-Believe A Theory of Belief, Imagination, and Group Identity. And it is fascinating! Dr. Van Leeuwen dives deep into how our minds relate to the world around us. What distinguishes our understanding of what's in the room next to us from our ideas about who or what controls the universe? Is there a difference between what he calls a "religious credence" that God is present in your life and the factual belief that you're currently sitting on a soft brown sofa? What's going on in our brains when we believe something versus when we know it?
