Before South Korea became the democracy and media powerhouse that it is today, it underwent several decades of authoritarian rule during the Cold War from the late 1940s to late 1980s. Amidst this authoritarian period, South Korea's filmmakers, distributors, and exhibitors nevertheless found ways to push the boundaries of both cinema and politics.

On this week's Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, opens the tap for a much-needed conversation with Dr. Daniel Jaffee, author of the brand new book, "Unbottled: The Fight against Plastic Water and for Water Justice," released by University of California Press, September 2023 (https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520306622/unbottled). Dan Jaffee is an environmental and rural sociologist, and Associate Professor of Sociology at Portland State University. He is the author of “Brewing Justice: Fair Trade Coffee, Sustainability, and Survival” (revised edition, UC Press 2014), which received the C. Wright Mills Book Award. He has published a number of articles and book chapters on water commodification and on social conflicts around bottled water. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2006. Unbottled is an exploration of bottled water's impact on social justice and sustainability, and how diverse movements are fighting back. In just four decades, bottled water has transformed from a luxury niche item into a ubiquitous consumer product, representing a $300 billion market dominated by global corporations. It sits at the convergence of a mounting ecological crisis of single-use plastic waste and climate change, a social crisis of affordable access to safe drinking water, and a struggle over the fate of public water systems. Unbottled examines the vibrant movements that have emerged to question the need for bottled water and challenge its growth in North America and worldwide. Drawing on extensive interviews with activists, residents, public officials, and other participants in controversies ranging from bottled water's role in unsafe tap water crises to groundwater extraction for bottling in rural communities, Dan Jaffee asks what this commodity's meteoric growth means for social inequality, sustainability, and the human right to water. Unbottled profiles campaigns to reclaim the tap and addresses the challenges of ending dependence on packaged water in places where safe water is not widely accessible. Clear and compelling, it assesses the prospects for the movements fighting plastic water and working to ensure water justice for all.

The federal government established a temporary water assistance program to alleviate the burden of water costs on households during the COVID-19 pandemic. Establishing a permanent water assistance program can increase long-term water affordability for households. In this episode, Dr. Manny Teodoro discusses the report he co-authored for the National Association of Clean Water Agencies that assessed options for a permanent federal water assistance program and shares how extending SNAP benefits would help increase water affordability.   Manny Teodoro is the Robert and Sylvia Wagner Professor at the La Follette School of Public Affairs at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. His research focuses on U.S. environmental policy and implementation, as well as utility management, policy, and finance.

Laura lives in Naperville, Illinois with her husband and 2 young boys. Gregg AllardGregg Allard leads the Commercial and Strategic Partnerships team at Truterra where he is responsible for building and implementing regenerative agriculture programs with food, fuel, feed and fiber companies.  These projects include both supply chain insetting and carbon offsetting projects to support the Truterra network of growers across the US. About PrimientPrimient is a leading producer of food and industrial ingredients made from plant-based, renewable sources. We deliver value through deep technical, commercial, and operational excellence that is backed by our long-standing corn wet milling heritage. Wherever we are in the process, from field to customer, our priorities are focused on ensuring we produce the safest, highest quality products through practices that uphold both our responsibility and commitments to our people and our planet.About TruterraTruterra is a leading agricultural sustainability business that offers consultation, tools and solutions for ag, food and CPG industries. Truterra works to advance and connect sustainability efforts throughout the food system at scale – from farmers to ag retailers to value chain collaborators including food and fiber companies. Truterra positions farmers for success by providing them tools and resources to establish a stewardship baseline, track progress on every field they farm, access conservation resources, and prepare for ecosystem services market opportunities.  Truterra was launched in 2016 by Land O'Lakes, Inc.    Primient + Truterra Working TogetherThe goal:advance sustainable agricultural practices on acres equivalent to the global annual corn procurement volume (1.2 million acres). Soil Carbon, Wind Erosion, and Soil Conservation metrics; as well as, Nitrogen Use Efficiency, Conservation Practices How are these items monitored?Deployed and Truterra insights score through the Truterra sustainability tool. Blog post on Primient/Truterra work for reference: https://primient.com/news/article/2023/02/leading-the-way-in-sustainable-agriculture Sustainable Supply Chain Detailscarbon markets/credits, which companies can purchase to offset their emissions, Then there's what we call Sustainable Supply Chain,which refers to the act of monitoring and evaluating a company's supply shed to understand the sustainability qualities for something like corn, in Primient's case. Truterra helps them track and monitor to eventually be able to report for scope 3 purposes. It may oftentimes be the same practices farmers are doing (reducing tillage, cover crops etc) that result in carbon credits, but a company is able to then take credit for this quality within their supply chain.Truterra's role is to bridge the gap between farmers and companies with sustainability goals who choose agriculture to be a part of their toolkit of solutions.QuestionsWhat is a sustainable supply shed?Why are companies interested in it? Why Primient is choosing to invest so heavily in this space? What crops or products are involved?How did Primient get started in this space?How does Truterra work as an integral part of the solution? How is the sustainability of the supply shed measured?Is this different than how carbon credits are measured?If I'm a farmer, what attributes are you specifically looking for in the corn that you procure? How do you determine the bushel of corn that is different from regular?We saw regenerative ag in action today, and it's clear that it's both an art and a science and no one size fits all.Are you looking to tell the farmer how to raise the crop?can you speak to the importance of a partner that understands farmers' different growing environments?We are Farm4Profit – and it's our understanding that Truterra thinks profitability and sustainability can go hand in hand – how do you see this coming to life for a farmer like (Corey)? When does the juice become worth the squeeze?What else is important to cover today?SummaryChallengeWhat would you go back and tell yourself at age 18?

Today's guest is Ramzi Fawaz, the Romnes Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Published by NYU Press in 2016, The New Mutants: Superheroes and the Radical Imagination of American Comics is his first book. In 2022, Ramzi published Queer Forms, for which he was interviewed by Lilly Goren for the New Books in Political Science channel. He is also the co-editor of Keywords for Comics Studies, with Deborah Whaley and Shelley Streeby, both with NYU Press. Ramzi's recently published articles include “Legions of Superheroes: Diversity, Multiplicity, and Collective Action Against Genocide in the Superhero Comic Book,” in Social Text; and wrote the introduction to “Queer About Comics,” a special issue of American Literature, with Darieck Scott. A bit about the book:  n 1964, noted literary critic Leslie Fiedler described American youth as "new mutants," social rebels severing their attachments to American culture to remake themselves in their own image. 1960s comic book creators, anticipating Fiedler, began to morph American superheroes from icons of nationalism and white masculinity into actual mutant outcasts, defined by their genetic difference from ordinary humanity. These powerful misfits and "freaks" soon came to embody the social and political aspirations of America's most marginalized groups, including women, racial and sexual minorities, and the working classes. In The New Mutants: Superheroes and the Radical Imagination of American Comics (NYU Press, 2016), Ramzi Fawaz draws upon queer theory to tell the story of these monstrous fantasy figures and how they grapple with radical politics from Civil Rights and The New Left to Women's and Gay Liberation Movements. Through a series of comic book case studies--including The Justice League of America, The Fantastic Four, The X-Men, and The New Mutants--alongside late 20th century fan writing, cultural criticism, and political documents, Fawaz reveals how the American superhero modeled new forms of social belonging that counterculture youth would embrace in the 1960s and after. The New Mutants provides the first full-length study to consider the relationship between comic book fantasy and radical politics in the modern United States. John Yargo is Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He earned a PhD in English literature from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, specializing in the environmental humanities and early modern culture. In 2023, his dissertation won the J. Leeds Barroll Prize, given by the Shakespeare Association of America. His peer-reviewed articles have been published or are forthcoming in the Journal for Early Modern Culture Studies, Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, and Shakespeare Studies.
