7Sees is a researcher and host of “This Week on the Web” on Ickonic. He lays out the technocratic plan for enslavement that was gaining popularity during the early 1930s, in part due to the influence of Elon Musk's grandfather. The Technocracy movement was a century ahead of its time, as Aldous Huxley described in the 1932 classic Brave New World. His brother Julian headed the British Eugenics Society and founded the World Wildlife Fund and UNESCO. This new batch of technocrats were incubated at Stanford, Harvard, and In-Q-Tel, financed on Sand Hill Road, then groomed at Bilderberg, Aspen Institute, and the CFR. Their coordinated pivot to AI, and the companies involved in artificial intelligence, is terrifying.

O SciCast mergulhou no universo fascinante dessas espécies que encantam pessoas ao redor do mundo. No entanto, por trás dessa beleza, há um custo ecossocial significativo. A exploração desenfreada, a falta de reprodução em cativeiro e o impacto na biodiversidade são temas urgentes que precisam ser discutidos. Conversamos como a aquariofilia afeta os ecossistemas de água doce e salgada, além de explorar as condições de trabalho das comunidades envolvidas na coleta desses peixes. Além disso, discutimos o papel dos governos e o que pode ser feito para tornar essa indústria mais sustentável. Patronato do SciCast: 1. Patreon SciCast 2. Apoia.se/Scicast 3.

On this Live Greatly podcast episode, in honor of Earth Day, Kristel Bauer sits down with Erin Simon, Vice President and Head of Plastic Waste and Business of the World Wildlife Fund. Kristel and Erin discuss actionable ways that you can make an impact around conservation, how to navigate overwhelm in the conservation space and lots more! Tune in now! Key Takeaways From This Episode: WWF's Give an Hour for Earth campaign WWF's No plastic in nature initiative How individuals can reduce plastic use in their homes and everyday life to improve their health and the health of the planet General information about plastic pollution – how big is the problem, what are some of the solutions How to handle overwhelm when it comes to conservation About Erin Simon: Erin's mandate is to drive positive change across industries in packaging and material sustainability—an area of action that is critical to conserving the world's natural resources, and one that is key to WWF's mission of protecting people and the planet. Since joining WWF in 2011, Erin has played an integral role in growing the partnerships, programs, and science that have made WWF a leader in solving one of most pressing environmental issues of our time: plastic pollution. In addition to helping spearhead WWF's No Plastic in Nature initiative, Erin has led the development of programs to transform the way the world—and specifically business—fights the plastic waste crisis. In 2019, her team launched ReSource: Plastic, the corporate action hub to tackle the plastic pollution crisis, and since then has built out a robust portfolio of efforts and partnerships to help companies take meaningful, ambitious steps towards circularity. Erin is one of WWF's leading experts on plastics and packaging and a key member of the WWF delegation advocating for a global plastics treaty, a first-ever international binding agreement on plastic pollution. Before WWF, Erin was a packaging engineer at HP for 10 years, responsible for the design and implementation of laser jet printer and media packaging. Erin lives in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband, daughter, and dog. When she's not working, you can find her kayaking with her family.

Lee Zeldin, the new administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, says he's eliminating environmental justice jobs that were largely focused on addressing pollution in low-income and minority communities. Grist's Lylla Younes explains the impact of these cuts. Then, more than 400 Fish and Wildlife Service workers — or about 5% of the agency's workforce — were let go last month. And more cuts to the agency could be on the horizon. Writer and photographer Mark Seth Lender shares concerns wildlife enthusiasts are feeling. And, the number of monarch butterflies overwintering this year in Mexico has nearly doubled, according to the annual census data from the World Wildlife Fund. Biologist Emma Pelton talks about this encouraging sign for the monarch population, as it continues to rebound from dangerously low levels this century.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What can we do about land power? It's the most important question and my guest today is Mike Albertus. Mike is a professor of political science at the University of Chicago. He's the author of the new book, Land Power. Who has it? Who doesn't? And how that determines the fate of societies. In the book, Mike examines how land became power, how it shapes power today still, and how who holds that power determines the fundamental social problems that societies grapple with. Mike studies how countries allocate opportunity and well-being among their citizens and the consequences this has for society, why some countries are democratic and others are not, and why some societies fall into civil conflict.-----------Have feedback or questions?

"That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run." - Forrest Gump I'm extremely excited to welcome Rob Pope, the real life Forrest Gump, to this week's show! Over the last few years, Rob has taken on the EPIC challenge of recreating Forrest Gump's famous run. Over 15,000 miles across the United States 5 times, he tested the limits of his own endurance and experienced the U.S. to the absolute fullest. Over his year and a half adventure he experienced highs and lows, received major support from strangers along the way, and ran through some of the most iconic places in the country. The human connections he made, along with the places he explored were life changing. Completing the challenge was absolutely unprecedented. Today's episode is all about this INCREDIBLE ADVENTURE. Rob shares how one of his last conversations with his mother about "Doing one thing that makes a difference in this world" inspired this challenge. He also chats about the adventures he had along the way, along with the obstacles he had to overcome (including a torn quadricep..yikes!). We also talk a lot about one of my favorite subjects....Tom Hanks! Please check out Rob's website. He would love your help supporting two excellent charities- Peace Direct and World Wildlife Fund. Enjoy!!

"You know, nobody's working on their Plan A... I'm in the middle of the alphabet somewhere - but most people are on Plan B, Plan C, Plan D - particularly when you get to my age. So, I think that's healthy for people to realize. Your first act doesn't have to be your only act.” In this episode, WomenHeard host Julie Hochheiser Ilkovich speaks with Liz Georges, Senior Director of Climate Communications at WWF. The World Wildlife Fund works in nearly 100 countries to advocate for sustainable policies and deliver innovative solutions that protect local species and their habitats. Liz started out at a PR agency, then pivoted to environmental law while volunteering at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. After her legal career, she worked in membership and then communications at nonprofits: Washington Project for the Arts, the Cheetah Conservation Fund, and The Nature Conservancy. As an executive in climate communications, Liz puts the audience at the core of WWF's outcomes and thinks about the best way to engage the public in their mission-driven priorities. She also keeps the pulse on environmental movements. WWF attends the UN Climate Change conference, delving into NDCs (Nationally Determined Contributions) for emission reductions that reduce the effects of climate change. Listen to this episode for why the #WorkplaceAuntie thinks you should be loud about your priorities – plus, the important advice from Liz's first job that's stayed with her throughout her career.

It's been almost 30 years since a narrow vote in the 1995 referendum ended the last threat to Canadian unity. And while it's not as though there hasn't been idle talk since then from angry provinces and their citizens, there's never again been a serious question of a province seceding from Canada...But history repeats, and as the 30th anniversary of the 1995 vote looms, a look at the underlying political conditions reveals some striking similarities—particularly if as expected the Conservatives decimate the Liberals in the next federal election. So is this idle speculation? Or is this a likely scenario that, amid all the political turmoil in Ottawa and around the world, nobody is paying enough attention to?GUEST: Gerald Butts, vice chair of the Eurasia group and Director of the World Wildlife Fund; former Principal Secretary to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and former Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty, writing about Quebec secession for The Walrus We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

Fancy Scientist: A Material Girl Living in a Sustainable World
Working in the conservation field innately involves loss from which is often accompanied by feelings of sadness, grief, anger, and even depression. The whole point of our field is to save species and ecosystems that are facing, often massive, declines and even extinction! As conservationists, we are compelled to help out because we love nature, often stemming from personal experiences and connections. This love is so great that we are often willing to dedicate our precious time, money, and energy towards this cause.But we currently live in a time where we are going through a massive extinction event, and unlike others, it's all because of us - human beings. We are constantly being bombarded with negative news of our changing planet: deforestation, climate change, pollution, wildfires, drought, and the list goes on and on! No wonder this takes a toll on us. For a long time, conservation organizations have used “doom and gloom” to activate people to change and to some extent have been successful, but it can also cause people to turn away and tune out with feelings of helplessness or apathy. And for those of us working, it can simply be draining and just downright depressing to see these images and read these stories over and over again! One of my favorite things to ask when facing a seemingly insurmountable problem is to ask “what can I do?” So what can we do? Well, we can turn to optimism in conservation. It can make us feel better and work as a catalyst for change. I have long been saying this so when I saw the organization Conservation Optimism, I was hopeful and relieved to see others who felt the same way. Conservation Optimism is a movement that emerged from Oxford University in 2017, born out of the desire to shift the narrative in conservation from despair to hope. It came about as a response to the overwhelming "doom and gloom" messaging often associated with environmental crises, which can lead to feelings of helplessness and inaction. The movement aims to bridge the gap BETWEEN conservation science and public engagement by providing a message of hope and agency. It's not about downplaying the severity of our environmental challenges, but rather about empowering people to take action.I have been following Conservation Optimism for a long time as I have been drawn to their impactful work. Given the challenges we face in our field, I knew that doing this interview with their director, Jon Taylor, would be an invaluable resource for our community!Jon Taylor is a seasoned wildlife conservation leader with over 30 years of experience working on conservation and sustainable development projects across Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. His career has spanned a variety of roles, including managing projects focused on climate change at WWF, tigers and elephants at the Zoological Society of London, and coral reefs and cetaceans in different parts of the world. Before joining Conservation Optimism in 2024, Jon served as the Managing Director at Save the Rhino International. With a deep passion for wildlife sparked in childhood, Jon has become an expert in conceptualizing and leading conservation initiatives, and he's dedicated to guiding the next generation of conservationists. Despite his extensive experience, he remains in awe of the natural world and continues to be motivated by its beauty and wonder.Conservation Optimism aims to bridge this gap by providing a message of hope and agency. It's not about downplaying the severity of our environmental challenges, but rather about empowering people to take action. It's clear that while the challenges in conservation are significant, there's ample reason for hope. Jon's passion for his work and his belief in our collective ability to make a difference is truly inspiring. His message reminds us that every action counts and that we're all part of a global community working towards a healthier planet. Despite the challenges we face, he believes in our collective ability to address environmental issues. In our conversation, Jon emphasizes the need to articulate the value of nature in ways that resonate with people emotionally, not just intellectually. He points out that while ecosystem services are important, we also need to tap into the spiritual, cultural, and emotional connections people have with nature. This approach can help make conservation efforts more relatable and meaningful to a broader audience.For those aspiring to work in conservation, Jon's career journey offers valuable lessons. He stressed the importance of perseverance and curiosity, sharing how his path took him from a poor part of North London to working on projects across Africa and Asia, and eventually to his current role at Oxford.In this episode, we discussed:The concept of Conservation Optimism and its importance in the fieldEffective messaging strategies for conservation communicationNavigating a career in conservation and the diverse skills neededDealing with eco-anxiety and finding personal sources of hopeThe importance of articulating the value of nature beyond just ecosystem servicesJon's experiences working with various species and organizations such as the World Wildlife Fund and Save the Rhino InternationalThe global impact of Conservation Optimism and its future goalsWhat you can do to help conservation and relieve eco-anxietyI'm Dr. Stephanie Manka (formerly Schuttler), a wildlife biologist of nearly 20 yrs with 20+ peer-reviewed scientific publications, author of the book Getting a Job in Wildlife Biology: What It's Like and What You Need to Know (https://www.amazon.com/Getting-Job-Wildlife-Biology-What/dp/B08JDYXS4G/) and founder of Fancy Scientist.

What if conservation efforts meant to protect our planet were actually causing significant harm to the very people who have safeguarded these lands for generations? Join us on Breaking Green as we uncover the startling truth with Anuradha Mittal, founder and executive director of the Oakland Institute. Through the lens of their report, "From Abuse to Power," we expose the severe human rights abuses reportedly inflicted upon indigenous communities by "EcoGuards" — funded by prominent NGOs like the World Wildlife Fund. We'll explore the deeply rooted colonial and racist undertones of the conservation industry, particularly in Africa. Discover how powerful international institutions and donor countries perpetuate a model that expels indigenous people from their ancestral lands. The conversation contrasts Western views that see humanity as a threat to nature with indigenous perspectives that emphasize harmony with the environment. On this episode of Breaking Green, we will talk with founder and executive director of the Oakland Institute, Anyarada Mitall. Anyarada is an internationally renowned expert on issues of human rights, agriculture, development and conservation policies. Under Anyarada's leadership, the Oakland Institute has unveiled land investment deals in the developing world to expose a disturbing pattern of lack of transparency, fairness and accountability. Anyarada has authored and edited numerous books and reports. Her articles and opinion pieces have been published in widely circulated newspapers and she is frequently interviewed on CNN, BBC World, CBC, ABC, Al Jazeera and National Public Radio.Find Oakland Institute's report "From Abuse to Power" here.

Freshwater is one of Earth's most precious resources. According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), our Earth's freshwater habitats-lakes, rivers, streams, wetlands, and aquifers-house an incredible proportion of the world's biodiversity. More than 10% of all known animals and about 50% of all known fish species call our freshwater habitats home. But how do our Great Lakes stack up when looking at global trends in freshwater systems?rnrnAs the world's leading conservation organization, the WWF works in nearly 100 countries to conserve nature and reduce the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth. This includes safeguarding the world's freshwater resources and landscapes to support biodiversity and human livelihoods.rnrnAs global lead scientist for freshwater, Jeff Opperman works across the WWF network and with external partners to direct research that can strengthen conservation strategies and integrate science into freshwater programs and projects.

It is pretty obvious that the Peace Corps. was a unique intelligence-gathering operation, but most people have not heard how it was established and who financed the operation over the decades. There is also a pipeline of talent for NGOs and spook agencies that runs through the Peace Corps., making it hidden in plain sight. The other fake do-gooder organization with questionable partnerships and sketchy financing is Greenpeace and its ties to John Podesta, George Soros, Bill Gates, and Planned Parenthood. It appears that they intend to preserve the planet through depopulation, which would explain their financial support from known eugenics operations and anti-humanity NGOs, such as the Tides Foundation, Open Philanthropy, and the World Wildlife Fund.
