A major crisis is unfolding beneath our feet: Earth's continents are losing freshwater at unprecedented rates.  Recent satellite data has uncovered a hidden global water crisis, suggesting the problem is more urgent than previously thought.  The study, which was led by researchers from Arizona State University, found that since 2002, climate change, unsustainable groundwater use, […]

In today’s deep dive, an algal bloom in Mattoon's water reservoirs forced the city to place a do-not-drink order in place this earlier this summer.

Climate change has put a spotlight on our relationship with natural resources, especially water. In many parts of the world, the water scarcity crisis is being intensified by companies. Salil Tripathi from IHRB speaks to Peter Waldman, a senior reporter at Bloomberg Businessweek, and to Ravi Mariwala, the Founder and Chief Executive of an Indian water management company called Smaart Water. Peter has been documenting growing global tensions around access to water, whilst Ravi's company provides sustainable and safe water services for businesses, governments, and consumers.   Together they discuss the impact of commodifying water; how small farmers and local communities are campaigning for greater access to water in Senegal, Australia and California; and what responsible and sustainable water management looks like in practice.

When we say we were floored that Flint, Michigan announced the conclusion of it's water criss in early-August 2025, that's an understatement. Reading this sent Donna & Jonathan into a wormhole of environmental racism from Flint to St. Louis to Louisiana and beyond. To the surprise of no one, the current administration isn't helping the cause because, you guessed it, DEI. How could that possibly be related? Want to take a guess?Resources:https://www.cnn.com/2025/08/03/us/flint-michigan-clean-water-crisishttps://youtu.be/aeMxN_f4c8whttps://youtu.be/Hs8l-e1YZ5gInstagram:@DonnaJaneen

News and Updates: Australia will ban social media accounts for anyone under 16 starting December 10, making it the first country to enact such a rule. The law, passed with 77% public support, puts enforcement on tech companies and aims to boost youth mental health, though teens and advocates argue it removes spaces for connection rather than fixing harmful features. The U.S. autonomous vehicle industry is stuck in limbo after Elon Musk's DOGE initiative gutted the Office of Automation Safety. Without regulators to set standards or grant exemptions, companies face delays and legal uncertainty. Lawmakers now urge DOT to rehire staff to untangle the mess. The FAA proposed a sweeping rule to allow drones to fly beyond visual line of sight at altitudes up to 400 feet. If approved, it would expand commercial uses such as deliveries, agriculture, and surveying. Amazon and Walmart already have FAA drone delivery approval, but safety and airspace restrictions remain. SpaceX is pressuring states to divert federal broadband grants from fiber to Starlink, calling fiber “wasteful.” In Louisiana, 91.5% of $500M in BEAD funds went to fiber, while Starlink only received $7.75M. SpaceX claims bias, but state officials cite fiber's scalability and satellite limitations. Internal documents show SpaceX has paid little to no federal income tax since its 2002 founding, despite billions in government contracts. Nearly $5.4B in accumulated tax losses let the company indefinitely shield future profits, thanks to a 2017 Trump tax change. Critics say the break was meant for struggling startups, not thriving contractors. England's National Drought Group urged citizens to delete old emails to conserve water as the country faces its worst drought since 1976. Data centers use vast water supplies for cooling—Google's Oregon site consumed 355M gallons in 2021. The call highlights growing tension between AI/data infrastructure and local water security.

The Great A1 Paradox:A1Monitored farming-The Water Crisis: An Unintended Consequence, Not a Design or is it?The water consumption of A1 data centers is a legitimate and pressing concern, but it's a byproduct of a technology developed to process information and solve complex problems. The massive water demand is a result of:Physical and Chemical Laws: To run powerful processors (CPUs, GPUs), you must dissipate heat. Water is an incredibly efficient medium for this. There's no way around the laws of thermodynamics or is there?.Economic Incentives: Data centers are often built in places with cheap land and power. These places are not always water-rich. The companies that build them are driven by business goals, not by a global population control agenda. Their failure to consider long-term environmental consequences is a significant problem, but it's one of short-sightedness and profit-motive, not a sinister plan or is it?.Rapid Technological Advancement: The rapid and unexpected rise of generative AI caught many by surprise. The infrastructure to support it, including its massive water and energy needs, is still catching up. Companies are now scrambling to find sustainable solutions, such as using alternative water sources, but this is a reactive measure, not a planned part of the technology's initial design.2. The Conflict with Traditional Agriculture: A Question of Transition and EconomicsThe potential for AI to displace hands-on farmers is a real concern, but it is a classic example of technological unemployment—a recurring theme throughout history, from the Industrial Revolution to the digital age. It is not an A1-specific plot to reduce the population. The conflict arises from:Economic Efficiency: A1-assisted farming promises higher yields with less labor and water. From a purely economic standpoint, this is a desirable outcome. However, it fails to account for the social fabric of rural communities, where farming is not just a job but a way of life.Inequality of Access: The high cost of A1 technology in agriculture creates a divide between large, corporate farms that can afford it and small, family-owned farms that cannot. This can push small farmers out of business, leading to increased consolidation of agricultural land and control. This is a problem of market forces and access to capital, not a conspiracy.Sources  Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  en.wikipedia.org  Constitutional monarchy - Wikipedia  Constitutional monarchies differ from absolute monarchies (in which a monarch is the only decision-maker) in that they are bound to exercise powers and ...  Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  en.wikipedia.org  Constitutional monarchy - Wikipedia  Political scientist Vernon Bogdanor, paraphrasing Thomas Macaulay, has defined a constitutional monarch as "A sovereign who reigns but does not rule".  Quizlet  quizlet.com  5.02 Constitutional versus Absolute Monarchies Flashcards | Quizlet  We think of an absolute monarchy when we look back in history and study rulers.

As Southern California wonders if water scarcity could ever spiral into a “Day Zero” crisis, the region stands at a crossroads for securing its water future. In this episode of In The Newsroom, Ian James, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, dives into the critical decisions shaping the region's water portfolio. With half its supply imported from vulnerable sources like the Colorado River, Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, and Sierra Nevada snowpack, Southern California faces growing risks from climate-driven aridification and reduced snowmelt. The region is evaluating massive wastewater recycling projects, like Pure Water Southern California, to bolster local supplies. The $20 billion Delta Conveyance Project, a proposed 45-mile tunnel, aims to secure water from the Sacramento River but sparks debate over environmental impacts on the Delta's ecosystem. A hyper-focus on conservation and efficiency, backed by the Pacific Institute's 2022 Untapped Potential report, highlights water-saving potential through native landscaping and upgraded appliances. Capturing stormwater in the LA River and other waterways offers another innovative solution to diversify and strengthen the region's water resilience. These efforts to diversify water sources today should position Southern California to avoid running out of water in the future.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for water sustainability.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:    First—President Donald Trump lays out the gameplan for his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying he's approaching the meeting like a high stakes game of chess. Meanwhile, Putin is heaping praise on Trump ahead of their encounter, and suggesting the talks could yield a new deal on nuclear arms control. Later in the show—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sends a message encouraging the citizens of Iran to take back control of their country, offering to help solve the nation's rapidly intensifying water crisis, but only if the Islamic regime's ruling clerics are booted from power.  Plus—we'll have the latest on President Trump's war against global drug traffickers, as Mexico agrees to extradite 26 high-ranking cartel leaders to the United States. In our 'Back of the Brief—a look at how Hamas radicalized an entire generation of kids in Gaza using a disturbing TV show featuring a jihadi Mickey Mouse lookalike and an antisemitic bunny.

A battle's flared between Federated Farmers and Greenpeace. Federated Farmers says the activist group should be stripped of its charitable status for defacing Gore's iconic brown trout statue to highlight how dairy pollution's affected the town's water. A three-day do-not-drink notice was issued Friday, because of elevated nitrate levels. Southland Federated Farmers president, Jason Herrick, says Greenpeace should behave better. "What they were doing had the potential to destroy a pretty important monument in Gore." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you listen to this podcast for any length of time, you'll know that I believe the way forward is predicated on our finding shared values—I'd go for integrity, compassion, courage and generosity of spirit as the baselines—and then a suite of clear asks in the outer world and needs in the inner world.  In logistical terms, at an absolute baseline, we need Clean Air, Clean Water, Clean Soil. These are non negotiable and the fact that we currently have none of these is a grim indictment of how much we live in an economy that sucks the life out of everything rather than a society that grows. But we do have people who are working flat out to change the narrative on exactly these topics and this week's guest, Tim Smedley, is one of these.  Tim is an award-winning sustainability journalist who has worked with the BBC, the Guardian, Sunday Times and Financial Times. He is also a celebrated non-fiction writer. His first book, Clearing the Air: The Beginning and the End of Air Pollution, was shortlisted for the UK's Royal Society Science Book Prize. His latest: The Last Drop: Solving the World's Water Crisis was a Times Book of the Year and has been described as 'Smart, Sobering and Scholarly' which it certainly is.This is one of those books that's both terrifying, utterly compelling and—I'm glad to say—ultimately inspiring.  Yes, the world's water is in a desperate state.  Yes, it has been horribly mismanaged almost everywhere by the kleptocracy that masquerades as a democracy in our modern world.  But yes, we do have responses that will work, they have been carefully explored and water is one of those unifying elements that brings people together across tribal boundaries. We all need clean water and getting there means we need to find common principles by which we can live. Spoiler alert: turning water into a for-profit commodity is not a part of the solution.  Regenerative agriculture, re-Wilding our waters, beavers (yay!) and sane water saving/sparing practices definitely are. Tim is so knowledgeable and his books are both brilliantly researched and utterly personal.  He goes to the places he writes about and his first-hand experiences are priceless.  I have put links in the show notes for both of his books, plus the Medium article on DeGrowth which is where I first came across his work.  Please do explore afterwards.

Amy MacIver is joined by EWN Parliamentary Correspondent Lindsay Dentlinger to unpack Water and Sanitation Minister Pemmy Majodina’s recent claim that South Africa is not facing a bulk water crisis — but rather a supply and governance problem. Lindsay explains what came out of the Minister’s first appearance before Parliament’s SCOPA, including shocking stats on municipal underperformance, ballooning water board debt, and the limits of national intervention. Together, they explore whether this signals real reform — or more rhetoric. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist.
