Glenn Elzinga is a seasoned rancher who has spent 34 years managing Alderspring Ranch in the wild, high-country landscapes of Idaho. Growing up on conventional farms that relied heavily on chemicals and formulaic business models, Glenn's career shifted dramatically after a "clobber over the head" moment forced him to innovate to survive.

A fire that burns for hours is a disaster. A fire that burns for decades becomes something else entirely. In 1962, workers in the coal town of Centralia, Pennsylvania attempted to clean up a landfill by setting the garbage on fire. The plan was simple: burn the trash and extinguish the flames once the job was done. But the fire slipped into an abandoned coal mine beneath the town. What began as a small controlled burn turned into one of the most famous underground fires in history. Today, most of Centralia is gone. Streets lead to empty fields. Homes have been demolished. Warning signs ...

A story of defiance and determination by a controversial scientist, this is Lee Berger's own take on finding Homo naledi, an all-new species on the human family tree and one of the greatest discoveries of the 21st century. In 2013, Lee Berger, a National Geographic explorer-in-residence, heard of a cache of bones in a hard-to-reach underground cave in South Africa. He put out a call around the world for petite collaborators - men and women small and adventurous enough to be able to squeeze through eight-inch tunnels to reach a sunless cave forty feet underground. It worked.

The “Kudzu Bug” Invasion: What You Need to Know in North Georgia By Fred Talley, Faith Pest Control If you’ve lived around Jasper, Ellijay, or anywhere in the North Georgia Mountains for more than a few years, you’ve probably noticed a “new” neighbor that’s making itself right at home.

In this episode, we zoom in on the UK solar market and ask a simple question with big implications: as solar scales fast, is it scaling sustainably? We break down what “circularity” actually means in a solar context, from design choices and maintenance, to decommissioning, reuse, and high-value recycling, so the industry can move beyond the take-make-dispose model.We also explore what’s at stake for the UK. With ambitions to ramp up deployment, the key challenge is making circular frameworks mature as quickly as the market, so we don’t solve one problem while creating another.
