Barges move over 70 percent of U.S. grain and can carry the equivalent of 4,000 truckloads with a single tugboat. Yet this massive freight channel has remained invisible to most supply chains due to outdated systems and zero visibility. In this episode, OpenTug CEO Jason Aristides shares how his team is digitizing barge and tug operations with GPS tracking, AI-powered automation, and a modern marketplace experience. By unlocking real-time visibility and booking capabilities, OpenTug is helping shippers tap into a cleaner and more efficient way to move freight across America's 12,000 miles of inland waterways. Key takeaways: Barges are one of the most fuel-efficient and underused freight modes in North America A single barge move can replace thousands of truckloads with a fraction of the labor OpenTug brings real-time GPS and predictive ETAs to an industry that ran on email chains Ports like New Orleans are investing heavily in container barge terminals More visibility and automation will help eliminate empty miles and reduce emissionsLINKS:Jason's LinkedInOpenTug's LinkedInOpenTug on CargoRexWATCH THE FULL EPISODE HEREFeedback?

Winter road treatments help to keep us safe on the roads, however there are some hidden dangers of road salt and our freshwater ecosystem. Dr. John Jackson, Senior Research Scientist of Stroud Research Center, shared how the road salt makes its way into our fresh water. “a portion, maybe half, maybe a little more, maybe less, immediately goes into our waterway by way of the snow melt and runoff. So, we'll see a spike in salt in the stream within hours of snow, or especially an ice event. icing goes because it's sleet right then and there there's a lot of runoffs to the stream, so we'll see a big spike.” The highest spikes occur once the salt hits the seawater. “In one case we've actually measured it being twice as salty as the ocean. And then the second way the salt enters the stream. during the infiltration portion. So, every time it rains or the snow melts, there's a huge chunk of that water actually goes into the ground. And when it's salty water.” The road salt is extremely harmful to the plants and animals that live in the waterways. “These are animals that are used to being in fresh water, just like you and I are used to drinking fresh water. We don't like drinking ocean water. uh we didn't evolve we're not we're not actually physiologically capable of doing well if our drinking water was salty it would be a big strain on us and so the plants and animals that are in that salty water experience that same physical strain um it's a water balance challenge first of all just like you and me being in the desert if you're in the desert you have a That's the first concern from my background.” The salt is also aging our infrastructure and contaminating our drinking water. “So we're seeing an increase in basically an acceleration of the aging of our infrastructure. So we already have infrastructure challenges and our road salt use is making that worse. The second thing is there's drinking water concern. Like I said, we drink fresh water, not salt water, and our water is It's safe to say today our water is probably twice as salty as it was 20 years ago, and 20 years ago was twice as salty as it was 40 years ago. This is a new phenomenon. the science as well as the management of the issue is still evolving.” Listen to the podcast to hear the entire conversation and what we can do as local residents to minimize those negative effects of road salt on our freshwater ecosystems.

In this clip of Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings delve into some fascinating and controversial geopolitical topics. The hosts kick things off with an intriguing examination of former President Donald Trump's interest in strategic territories like the Panama Canal and Greenland. Rashad provides a history lesson, detailing how the U.S. came to control the Panama Canal, underscoring the canal's critical role in global trade. The conversation highlights the historical importance of waterways and how controlling them has always been paramount for the world's most powerful nations.Rashad emphasizes that Trump's seemingly outlandish statements about taking over Greenland and Panama aren't random; they are rooted in strategic objectives centered on waterway control. The discussion moves to global warming and the emergence of new trade routes due to melting ice caps, revealing how these changes will influence future geopolitical maneuvers. Other key issues covered include the importance of controlling trade routes and how this correlates with saving costs on transportation via expedited routes.Troy adds to the dialogue by explaining how controlling these waterways can significantly benefit trade and the global economy, which is why countries like Russia, Canada, and China, apart from the U.S., are eyeing these regions. The conversation isn't just about land grabs; it's an economic and strategic game that has been played for centuries.Ian underlines how the U.S. has the highest levels of pollution among major countries, noting the genetic defects and cancer rates resulting from it. He discusses how having access to cleaner land and water could be especially beneficial for the nation's elite.The hosts also speculate on Trump's aggressive foreign policy proposals, debating which of these might actually materialize. Ian suggests that Greenland might be the most likely to see some form of deal due to its political openness to such conversations, while military action against Panama seems less feasible.The episode doesn't shy away from discussing the racial and geopolitical implications of these moves. Rashad and the team point out the disparities in how Trump talks about Greenland versus Panama, hinting at deeper socio-political undertones.As the conversation progresses, they discuss how historical empires, including the U.S., Great Britain, and France, have grown through imperialism and territorial takeovers. They underline that America's territorial ambitions are often overlooked in discussions about global imperialism. Rashad recounts America's annexation of Hawaii, Alaska, and other territories, illustrating how these actions have shaped modern geopolitics.The show wraps up with thoughts on current events like wildfires in California and the role of prisoners in combating these blazes. This segues into the broader topic of America's "underbelly" – the undisclosed systems and structures that keep the country running, which are not publicly traded but wield immense influence.Join Rashad, Ian, and Troy on this thought-provoking episode as they dissect Trump's plans, the history of imperialism, and how global warming is redrawing the map of geopolitical strategies.Don't miss out on this insightful discussion that blends history, economics, and politics to provide a comprehensive understanding of current events and future possibilities.*Hashtags:*#MarketMondays #Geopolitics #Trump #PanamaCanal #Greenland #GlobalWarming #Waterways #Imperialism #EconomicStrategies #GlobalTrade #History #CurrentEventsTune in and subscribe to Market Mondays for more deep dives into the ever-evolving world of geopolitics and economics!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Chris Jennings, the General Manager of the Lake House on Canandaigua, helps us touch on downtown waterfalls of the city of Rochester, with a history of notable figures like Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony. We'll uncover the lesser-known natural wonders of western New York beyond famed Niagara Falls, including Letchworth State Park, often referred to as the Grand Canyon of the East. The Finger Lakes, 11 glacier-formed bodies of water, are celebrated for their wine scene and cultural tapestry, including Amish and Mennonite influences.

In August of 1976, twin brother Jim and Jack Weiner and their friends Chuck Rak and Charlie Flotz embarked on a two-week camping and canoeing trip to the Northwoods of Maine. Several days into their trip they experienced something they couldn't explain– and it would be over a decade until the truth of that night truly came to light. Remembered as “The Allagash Four” the quartet has gone down in ufology history as one of the most compelling cases of alien abductions in US history.
