Britain is in the grip of another hot, dry summer, with hosepipe bans in force and fears growing about the country's water supply. But are we really running out of water?Michael Simmons is joined by Reality Check reporter John Power to explain what is actually behind the shortages, whether Britain needs more reservoirs and why nationalising the water companies may not be the answer. They also ask what the drought tells us about the future of net zero – and how Britain should adapt to a changing climate.This episode is brought to you by Artemis Fund Managers, for more information on our fund range please click here https://www.artemisfunds.com Hosted on Acast.

Hartman, Colorado, reached a point where it could no longer function as a town. Its water system was unsafe, every member of the town board had resigned, and no one remained with the authority to hold an election or sign the agreements needed to fix the water. Norm Van Eeden Petersman is joined by Joshua Hopkins, mayor of Chugwater, Wyoming, and Strong Towns executive director John Reuter to look past the political infighting and ask what happened before the final collapse. The question facing places like Hartman and Chugwater is increasingly basic: How much town can a very small community actually afford to maintain?

Puerto Rico is facing yet another crisis as major cities are rationing water for residents due to severe drought conditions. This problem is also exposing the island's aging water infrastructure and lack of immediate government action, leaving many frustrated. For more on how families are coping and what officials are saying, Deema Zein spoke with investigative reporter Laura Perez Sanchez. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

True compassion is more than well-meaning charity. Here's how faith in action is creating sustainable infrastructure to give millions new life.Clean water is a background feature of modern life that requires no second thought. For most of us, anyway. But there are nearly 700 million people across the world who live day to day without reliable access to safe water. Up to 60% of water infrastructure projects in developing regions eventually fail and are abandoned. Well-meaning organizations install wells, take photographs, and leave, only for a broken pump or missing replacement part to set the community right back to where they started. In this episode of The Walk, Dave LeVan, CEO of Water for Good, sat down with host Dr. John I. Snyder to challenge the quick-fix charity mindset. Moving from corporate success to nonprofit leadership, Dave shares how combining deep faith with innovative, community-driven maintenance models is transforming lives across Africa and Asia, one sustainable well at a time.Find out more at waterforgood.org.

De aanhoudende droogte in Nederland zet waterafhankelijke industrieën steeds meer onder druk. Vaarwegen als het Twentekanaal en het kanaal van Gent naar Terneuzen zijn (gedeeltelijk) gestremd, verzilting bedreigt cruciale zoetwaterbronnen als het Brielse Meer en bedrijven vrezen miljoenen euro’s schade terwijl zij aandringen op meer duidelijkheid en regie van waterbeheerders en het kabinet. Intussen kondigen meteorologen mogelijk de warmste week van de zomer aan, in wat al de warmste zomer ooit is met een gemiddelde van 19,6 graden. In grote delen van Europa zoals Italië, Spanje en Oostenrijk lopen de temperaturen op tot rond of boven de 40 graden en zorgen langdurige hitte en droogte voor toenemende overlast en risico’s, gevoed door klimaatverandering en hardnekkige hogedrukgebieden boven Noordwest‑Europa. Op het moment dat president Poetin een bezoek bracht aan de Russische stad Krasnojarsk gebeurde er iets opmerkelijks: op het moment dat bewoners gingen tanken, waren de benzineprijzen gehalveerd. Dat is volgens Rusland-correspondent Joost Bosman geen toeval: dit gebeurt veel vaker in het land. Dat terwijl Poetin zelf geen idee heeft wat er aan de hand is.

Andy BurnhamAs I conclude this column on Monday afternoon Andy Burnham is taking up his position as British Prime Minister. As I dispatch these lines he is addressing the media and supporters outside 10 Downing Street. I wish him well. I also hope he will be the last British Prime Minister to interfere in Irish affairs. Our ambition is for the people of Ireland to govern ourselves. As soon as possible. When that happens we will govern Ireland in the interests of Ireland. Mr Burnham, like every British PM governs in the interests of the English establishment. He like his predecessors is a Unionist. Let's work to ensure that he is the Prime Minister who ends the Union.‘Women's Voices, Hopes for a New Ireland'Féile an Phobail is the launch pad each year of exiting new projects, and especially new books. One such book this year is ‘Women's Voices, Hopes for a New Ireland.' The book is published by Sinn Féin's Commission on the Future of Ireland and will launched at 1pm on 4th August in Áras Uí Chonghaile by Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald TD.The book is compiled and edited by Grace McDermott and Aoife Ferguson and is an innovative collection of contributions from 62 women across Ireland and the diaspora sharing their hopes for the future and a new Ireland.The women are drawn from all sections of society. They are writers, actors, musicians, community workers, political activists, health workers. They include Protestant voices. This book is a mixture of written contributions, poetry, song lyrics and artwork. They reflect the experiences of these women to partition and a society that has often held them down, treated them as second-class citizens and pushed them to the margins of history.The book is being launched at this years' Féile an Phobail. The launch will be ion 4th August in Áras Uí Chonghaile on 4 August. You can register to attend here: Women's Voices- Hopes for a New Ireland Tickets, Tuesday, August 4  •  1 PM - 2 PM | EventbriteIt will also be launched at the Derry Féile on the 12 August in Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin, 37 Great James Street Derry BT48 7DF at 2pm and other events are being planned.It will be available from An Fhuiseog 55 Bóthar na bhFál, BT12 4PD, https://anfhuiseog.ie/And https://sinnfeinbookshop.com/Water Crisis in GazaImagine in the midst of this very hot, and dry weather you did not have access to fresh drinking water. Could not have a shower or bath. Wash clothes. Prepare food. Make tea or coffee whenever you want. Fill a water container for storage  in the fridge for a cold drink. Have a fridge?That is the reality of life for almost two million women and children and men living in the Gaza Strip. Israel's genocidal policies has resulted in the deliberate and targeted destruction of water, sanitation and hygiene systems (in Gaza. It has created a humanitarian catastrophe. This is especially true for women who are pregnant or are menstruating. According to a recent Oxfam report, women cannot get the water they need to keep clean and hydrated.It reports that the extensive damage to water networks, treatment facilities, and sewage systems “has crushed water production, so it is a fraction of pre-October 2023 levels.” In addition, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has revealed that Gaza's water production has dropped to less than a quarter of what it was three years ago and that 89% of water plants and sewage facilities “have been destroyed or partially damaged.”For a family in the west it's a simple matter to turn the water tap on to access all you need. In Gaza average daily use of water per person has dropped from the minimum humanitarian standard of 15 litres per day to around three litres.Rubber Bullet injures Marwan BarghoutiRegular readers will know that I have written recently on several occasions about the imprisonment and torture of Palestinian prisoner Marwan Barghouti. Marwan, now aged 67, has been held in Israeli prisons for 24 years after a widely criticised show trial in 2002. He is a senior leader in Fatah and is viewed by Palestinians as their Nelson Mandela.Over the years he has endured significant brutality but the most recent occurred in Ganot prison several weeks ago when a prison guard entered his cell and shot him in the leg with a rubber bullet. During the decades of conflict in the North rubber and plastic bullets were frequently used by the RUC and British Army. They were an attempt to terrorise citizens. Seventeen people were killed by rubber and plastic bullets. Eight of these were children and all but one was from nationalist areas.However, the Israeli rubber bullets are of a significantly different design to those used here. Israel's rubber bullets are “steel covered with a thin rubber coat.” They cause more fatalities and life changing injuries.Marwan's son Arab Barghouti, said the family only learned about the incident from his father's lawyer and that Barghouti had not received medical treatment for the injury. Two weeks ago the Arab League called for an international commission of inquiry into what it said were "repeated assaults" on Barghouti. So support freedom for Marwan Barghouti. Log on to https://freemarwan.org/Methodism and the Peace Process‘From Feakle to the Falls and Derry's Wall - Methodism and the Peace Process, 1985-2025 by David Gallagher is an important book and a significant contribution to the discussion on peace-making in Ireland.David has been a member of the Methodist Church in Ireland's Council on Social Responsibility since 1986. He was the Northern Executive's Lay Secretary from 1990 to 2003. His book is a detailed and critical assessment of the role of Methodism and I'm still reading it.I have a firm belief that all of us have a story to tell. My personal focus has been on republicans and working class people telling our story but the truth is the right and the need to tell our own story belongs to everyone. And the Methodists have a story worth telling. So well done David Gallagher.David will be taking part in Féile an Phobail on 1pm on the 31st July in St. Mary's University College on the Falls Road.

Newt talks with Augustus Doricko, founder and CEO of Rainmaker. They discuss how drone-based cloud seeding could transform America's water future. Doricko explains how new radar and satellite technology finally lets scientists prove precipitation is manmade, solving a problem that has stumped researchers since GE invented cloud seeding in 1946. He breaks down why drones beat manned aircraft on safety and cost, how atmospheric water gets replenished every eight to ten days, and his ambitious goal to double the Colorado River's flow by 2031. Their conversation also covers his path from a UC Berkeley physics dropout to a Peter Thiel Fellow, the legal and environmental questions raised by manipulating weather, and even a provocative idea about weakening hurricanes before they reach shore. It's a fascinating conversation addressing whether technology can finally solve the West's worsening drought crisis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

WATER WARS HAVE BEGUN: The Colorado River Crisis Is Exploding The American West is facing a crisis that could reshape life for millions. The Colorado River supplies water to nearly 40 million people across the Southwest, but record drought, shrinking snowpack, rising temperatures, and increasing demand have pushed the river to a breaking point. California, Nevada, and Colorado all need the water. None want to give up their share. And now negotiations are collapsing. Could the next battle over the Colorado River be fought in court? As Lake Mead and Lake Powell continue to face pressure, states are preparing for what could become one of the biggest legal and political fights in modern American history. Plus: • Why are bars in San Francisco's Castro District using facial recognition technology on customers? • Is it legal, and what does it mean for privacy? • The latest political headlines from Washington. • Health and fitness news that could affect your daily life. The future of water in the American West isn't a distant problem—it's happening right now.

First, we speak to The Indian Express' Mohamed Thaver about yet another comedy show controversy, after a crowd-work clip from comedian Pranit More's live performance triggered backlash, disciplinary action against audience members involved, and even an FIR by Maharashtra Cyber.Next, The Indian Express' Sophiya Nathew talks about Delhi's water crisis, after residents in several parts of South Delhi reported foul-smelling, contaminated water and fresh questions were raised about ageing pipelines, leaks and urban pressure on the city's infrastructure. (14:00)And in the end, we take a look at NCERT's new Class 9 arts textbook, where a digitally altered image of the iconic Dancing Girl of Mohenjo-daro has sparked a debate over censorship and how history is being presented to students.

Access to clean water is still out of reach for a staggering number of people—and it's not just a distant problem. According to estimates from WHO and UNICEF, over 2 billion people still don't have safely managed drinking water at home, a reality that impacts everything from health to education and economic opportunity. As pressure from climate change and population growth builds, there's increasing recognition that lasting solutions need to be built from the ground up, with communities at the center.Within that shift, purpose-driven initiatives are emerging that connect individual action with systemic change—focused on creating impact that lasts well beyond the moment.So what happens when a single individual attempts to run more than 15,000 kilometers across a continent—not for sport, but to catalyze transformation? Can a physical journey spark a scalable model for lifting communities out of poverty?Welcome to I Don't Care. In a conversation centered on purpose and impact, Dr. Kevin Stevenson is joined by Veronique Bourbeau, founder and CEO of Run4Humanity, to unpack a continent-spanning effort to transform communities through water, education, and endurance. The conversation spans far beyond endurance athletics, diving into the mechanics of sustainable development, behavioral change, and what it truly means to empower communities from within.Key takeaways from the episode…It's not about the run—it's about systems change: The journey is a vehicle to deliver water access, agricultural support, sanitation, and education through locally driven programs.Community-first implementation is critical: Every initiative is co-created with local leaders and tailored to the unique needs of each region, ensuring long-term sustainability.Behavioral transformation is the missing link: Beyond infrastructure, Run4Humanity emphasizes financial literacy, health, and mindset shifts to break the cycle of poverty.Veronique Bourbeau is an ultra-endurance athlete, author, and global humanitarian. A former journalist turned humanitarian leader, she combines expertise in international development, partnership-building, and community-led program design with elite ultra-endurance achievements, including a 3,010 km run across Japan and a record-setting 444 km race victory in Malaysia. Through Run4Humanity, she leverages large-scale endurance initiatives and global partnerships to advance water security, economic resilience, and long-term behavioral change.

For more than six decades, the United States has tried to reshape communist-ruled Cuba through sanctions, diplomacy and political pressure. Now, President Donald Trump is pursuing a tougher approach, arguing increased economic pressure can succeed where previous efforts have failed. But as Washington tightens sanctions and Havana blames the United States for deepening hardship, ordinary Cubans are once again caught in the middle.

California recorded its second-lowest Sierra Nevada snowpack on record this spring. That's not just a bad ski season, it's a water supply crisis. Snowpack is where California's water comes from. And when it doesn't materialize, agriculture, hydropower, and fire suppression all feel the strain. Dacia Leon, CEO and co-founder of Supercool Earth, is building a company around a deceptively simple idea: use biology to make it rain and snow where it's needed most, on demand. Her company's core technology involves engineering microbes to produce high quantities of this pure protein cheaply, which is then used in snowmaking machines and for cloud seeding. Supercool Earth is targeting high-margin markets first, starting with a snow-making additive for ski resorts. It's a cheaper, greener, and scalable alternative to existing products like Snomax largely because it's made of pure, biodegradable protein (no bacterial cells), has no smell, and is stable at room temperature.  The company is intentionally using natural proteins instead of non-degrading silver iodide used in traditional cloud seeding to streamline the regulatory process through EPA TSCA, which is faster than dealing with GMO regulations. In this episode, Lara Pierpoint talks with Dacia about the science and commercial strategy behind Supercool Earth, the lessons she's carrying from Bio 1.0 failures, the public perception challenges around geoengineering, and what she'd do if $100 million landed in the company's bank account tomorrow.

Everyone says AI is drinking the planet dry, right? Well, the numbers say your morning coffee uses 29,600× more water than a ChatGPT prompt! In this episode, I sit down with Alex Passini to pressure-test the dominant narrative around AI's water footprint - and what we found completely flips the story the media is telling. Here's what most "AI water crisis" headlines miss: → A single ChatGPT prompt uses roughly 16 milliliters of water. One cup of coffee uses ~140 liters when you count the beans. That's a 29,600× gap. → Of the water a hyperscale data center consumes, ~75% isn't used by AI at all — it's used upstream for the energy that powers it. Blame the grid, not the GPU. → One banana = ~6,250 ChatGPT prompts. One almond = ~12 prompts. The water-per-prompt math is rounding-error territory next to your lunch. → Florida already reuses 800 million gallons/day of treated wastewater. Data centers aren't the threat - they're an accelerant for the water reuse capex the sector has been waiting twenty years for. If you're an investor trying to figure out whether AI's water story is a real thesis or a media artifact, this episode gives you the framework (and the numbers) to decide.

When you think of the state of Florida, a water crisis is likely not the first thing that comes to mind. However, There has been an ongoing fight for decades now centered around water, and more importantly how it is managed. In it's natural state, water would flow slowly south out of Lake Okeechobee, down through the everglades, and into the Atlantic ocean. Now, after some artifical damming and canal building- the water is released in large discharges to the St Lucie and Caloosahatchie Rivers, causing an aray of problems for those rivers, the residing wildlife, water quality, and neglects the everglades.
