The other day I happened to watch a video on YouTube not in my usual way and saw an ad there in the video for the first time in five years or so. Besides using a browser plug-in that block ads, I use another that blocks suggested videos. When I go to watch a video, I usually just see that one, not others. Sure, others might be interesting, but there[…] Keep reading →

I’ve written lately about podcasts I follow. It seems like I should share what I follow. I may be biased, but I recommend mine most: This Sustainable Life: Podcasts and blogs I subscribe to: This Sustainable Life: Solve for Nature, by Eugene Bible: Eugene contacted me about my podcast and work. We got to know each other. He started a sibling podcast to mine, practicing the Spodek Method with his[…] Keep reading →

It’s been close to a year since I first appeared on the Heritage Foundation’s podcast The Power Hour, hosted by Jack Spencer, who has been a guest on my podcast three times. First, I enjoy Jack’s hosting both as a guest and a listener. I really was laughing as hard as I said when I came on. You’ll hear me share more about how America’s founders, Lincoln, Adam Smith, and[…] Keep reading →

Regular readers and listeners to my podcast know Evelyn from her being a guest and my mentioning her. I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned Hayden, but both of them took my workshop in sustainability leadership (I recommend you do too). They started a podcast together called Bulk Beans & Bicycles. They posted the first episode a few days ago. Here’s the link to the podcast’s home page and to a[…] Keep reading →

Listen to this story about me on WNYC: The text introducing it says: As President Donald Trump pursues a deregulation agenda, New York’s ambitious clean energy goals appear further out of reach. So what’s a climate conscious New Yorker to do? WNYC’s Rosemary Misdary reports on some New York City residents taking an extreme approach to eliminating their carbon footprints. I won’t split hairs, but I would describe what I[…] Keep reading →

Engel hosted me before and invited me back to catch up. Twelve minutes makes for a quick conversation and still meaningful depth. Here’s the new episode (3410). (Here are my previous episode 2708 (2020) and previous episode 1128 (2017)). Usually I embed the podcast player, but I can’t see how to embed his, so you have to go to his site to hear it. I think you’ll enjoy the conversation,[…] Keep reading →

Longtime readers know Rob, Andrew, and I appear on each other’s podcasts and programs. They strongly support Trump. I strongly support sustainability leadership. Many people who support Trump or act on the environment consider the other group the enemy. We are friends. I recently appeared on their podcast-now-videocast: When Sustainability Meets MAHA And Making English The Official Language. It was evening and I disconnected my apartment from the electric grid[…] Keep reading →

Matt and I have appeared on each other’s podcast before. He invited me back to talk about Sustainability Simplified. I recommend reading it. This episode will whet your appetite. Looking at Matt’s podcast page, the guest before me was Bill McKibben so I consider myself in esteemed company. Here at the liner notes:

The audio book for Sustainability Simplified is on sale at last! If you’ve been waiting to hear me read it, now’s your chance. It’s only available on Amazon (I’ll work with my publisher to make it available elsewhere). The free preview of the first five minutes is captures the opening story. I predict you’ll find it engaging. I confess I’m nervous how people will find my reading, which I consider[…] Keep reading →
