    From Nature to Nurture - Growing Certified Organic Skincare

    Leanne Sternbeck the creator of RADHA Handmade Organics and Naturals is the only person we know who is growing certified organic ingredients to use in the hand made certified organic skincare products she makes. Leanne is literally taking all the values we have about organics and provenance and putting them her in a beautifully hand crafted range of skincare products. \"I make everything from start to finish and every product does contain botanicals that were grown here on the farm in our certified organic gardens. We don\'t compromise on quality ever.\" Leanne Sternbeck Although we commonly like to know where our food comes from we don\'t generally consider it possible to know where our body care products come from and never that the raw ingredients could be grown the same person making the products! RADHA Handmade Organics and Naturals - More than just natural ingredients!

    Smoked Food - Developing a Good Business Idea

    This interview with Jeff Schultheiss about how he\'s combined his expertise as a food technologist, his love of smoking foods and smoke flavours with his determination to build his own business, is not only a fantastic introduction to a range of new products but also a great insight into what it takes to create a food product business.

  3. The Global Plastic Problem with Jane Bremmer, National Toxics Network

    The Global Plastic Problem with Jane Bremmer, National Toxics Network

    We talked with Jane Bremmer who is currently the Zero Waste Australia campaign coordinator for the National Toxics Network.  We talked about plastic - literally from the ground up. We hope this episode helps to maintain the momentum behind the plastic \'wake up call\'.  Jane is adamant that if everyone knew plastic started with fracking, liquid natural gas and oil then everyone would be more concerned about finding ways to live without plastic than they are about plastic waste management.   After listening to this podcast you\'ll soon realise that your mental image of plastic pollution with marine plastic debris, marine pollution and ocean pollution restricts your understanding of the scale of the global plastic problem.

    Researching Foods that Fight Cancer

    This is a great interview with Dr Eliza Whiteside about cancer, foods that might fight cancer and the empowering actions that people with cancer can take.  There is great empathy and compassion in Dr Eliza\'s work which comes from her first hand understanding of how disempowering a cancer diagnosis is.  She is a survivor of breast cancer and her experience motivates her research drive to find a more natural way for reducing the risk of cancer, cancer prevention and ultimately be able to treat cancer naturally.

  6. The Science of Re-purposing Food Waste

    The Science of Re-purposing Food Waste

    While there are many products available, including our hemp produce bags, and consumer education for reducing food waste at the household level, the second largest area of food waste is the food that\'s grown and never leaves the farm! So while we can certainly implement many practical solutions at the household level we still have a big problem that needs to be solved on a larger scale. This conversation with Dr Polly Bury gives us hope that the solution may be closer than we think and that there is great interest fast tracking the possibilities of re-purposing excess food or even parts of plants that have never been considered food, like pineapple skins and sweet potato leaves and vines.

    Be Kind to Your Skin and Keep the Reef Safe

    Just 9 ingredients in this pure reef safe sunscreen formula that protects you, your children, our beautiful coral reefs and valuable ecosystems. We interviewed the founder and creator of The Kind Sunscreen, Emma Corrie, and heard what got her started, why she persisted and what a difference choosing The Kind Sunscreen can make. Reef-safe sunscreens are important because active ingredients in common sunscreens wash off our skin and into our marine environments - 14,000 tons of sunscreen each year wash into our coral reefs!!!! Our Great Barrier Reef is one of the seven wonders of the world and across the world the world\'s coral reefs cover approximately 11,000 square miles of sea floor and are some of the most diverse ecosystems and some of the most enjoyable places for us to visit. As the trends for clean living, sustainable living and eco living are all gaining momentum sunscreen ingredients have been under increasing scrutiny by conscious consumer especially as we\'ve all become more away of what shouldn\'t be included in skin care products. The interest in mineral sunscreens has expanded with this trend coupled with the desire to choose a Reef Safe Sunscreen.

  8. The Waste Problem!

    02/08/2021

    The Waste Problem!

    What happens to my rubbish after it is collected? Currently the TRC is using waste collection services for the recycle bin contents. It\'s commercially viable and there is great profit in rubbish! There are many hard to answer questions such as could it be possible for the council to take this over from a commercial business and how could a council achieve the economies of scale that would such a project viable? This conversation with Cr Rebecca Vonhoff is frank and sincere about how hard all these questions are to answer. Currently the TRC handles the green waste collection and the household waste collection. The green waste (garden waste items) becomes mulch for local residents and the council parks. Unfortunately, the household waste becomes landfill. Alongside the many questions about sustainable waste management there are also many questions about how the current landfill situations could be turned into energy - could it be possible to turn waste into energy? For many, many years food waste has been included in household waste that has gone to landfill and while it can\'t be recycled the TRC is exploring how it can be turned into energy by harnessing the gas that is emitted from these landfill sites. Other topics discussed in this episode include -types of waste that are difficult to manage such as mattresses, electronic waste, styrofoam and products made from different recyclable components -waste education programs in schools and on the side of waste collection trucks -the motivation at the household level for recycling of paper, cardboard, plastics and glass materials.
