This year’s UN climate summit will be the first held in a major Petrostate - which is ironic since, according to current climate science, phasing out fossil fuels is our most urgent task. Dr. Sultan al-Jaber has been nominated by the rulers of the United Arab Emirates to preside over COP28. He is the managing director and group CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC). Al Gore, the former US vice-president, tells Simon Mundy in a Financial Times interview why he thinks this year's COP28 climate change talks are likely to fail. The interview was published on October 24, 2023 under the title: Al Gore on Big Oil, COP28, and the fight for climate action. Watch it on the Youtube channel of the Financial Times. About a month before this conversation, at the end of September 2023, the New York Times invited Al Gore to their Climate Forward event to discuss what’s standing in the way of progress in solving the global climate challenges. David Gelles is the interviewer. Watch the full 33 minute conversation in the series of New York Times Events, published on Sep 21, 2023 on YouTube. DATES: Oct. 24, and September 21,2023 Location: Internet

Look around you: at this very moment, chances are that within a one-foot radius of your body, there’s something plastic. The ubiquity of plastic comes with a steep cost, however. This week on Sea Change Radio, the first half of our two-part discussion with Matt Simon, a Wired staff writer and author of A Poison Like No Other: How Microplastics Corrupted Our Planet and Our Bodies. In this episode, we learn about the history of plastic manufacturing, look at some unexpected ways that we’re exposed to microplastics, and examine how plastic recycling falls well-short of its promise.

Biometry is the application of mathematical analysis to biological data. Mathematician Bertell was enticed into health research and did complex analyses on large data sets with many variables. Her first breakthrough was in showing how exposure to radiation increased the risk of metastasizing cancers - which convinced the US Congress to limit the use of X-rays to diagnostics. She was also able to trace the spike in breast cancers among cohorts of American women to their exposure to above-ground nuclear testing. Based on her Xray research, she came out against routine mammography, especially on younger women. Among other research topics, she worked on how pollution affects the health of whole communities. She was offended by campaigns that led individuals to try all sorts of things to prevent disease in themselves without looking at the environment around them. She was shunned and vilified by various persons with financial stakes that would be adversely affected by her work. But all the work she discusses in this 1994 interview is still relevant and not overturned today. The lessons she conveys are still needed.
