The Biofriendly Podcas‪t‬ Biofriendly

With all of the recent extreme weather events occurring around the world, it's important to look at our Earth's natural water cycle and how it is being affected with our changing climate. This week we welcome back guest Michael Carroll to talk about what's going on under the surface, some methods of capturing water, and why sometimes Scrooge McDuck is the only way to understand it all.

After the recent winter storms in Texas, we have seen a fair amount of finger-pointing as to why the state was underprepared and left in the cold. This week on The Biofriendly Podcast we directly address the accusations against green technology, why a fire should always have its place, and Noel gets riled up about all the nonsense! 

As the news continues to report record low temperatures and winter storms hitting as far south as the U.S. State of Texas, it's time to talk about what a Polar Vortex is exactly and why this is happening. Having been knee-deep in a Polar Vortex before, Noel and Jacob break down the science behind the arctic blast, what it means for our Earth's climate, and that the only way to survive an Ice Age is in a Wendy's.

From reintroduction biology to assisted evolution, The Biofriendly Podcast gets philosophical this week as we discuss the ways science can choose to step in and save a species. Noel and Jacob share some changes being made to make animals more climate change resistant, Super Bowl highlights, and should humans have built-in furry jackets for survival?

New species, who dis? It's mind-blowing to learn just how many species we discover every year, let alone how many more unknown species we have left to discover! From plants to animals, Noel and Jacob list some of the top new finds from last year, why it's important to look around and not just at the ground, and what do Harry Potter and The Joker have to do with all of this?

In order to celebrate the 100th episode of The Biofriendly Podcast, we welcomed back friend of the show and founder of Well Aware, Sarah Evans! Sarah shares with Noel and Jacob about creating the social-good company Well Beyond in response to the technical and community needs of the water charity sector, why creative inspiration pairs nicely with wine, and that shower striking time is just around the corner!
