Season 1 Episode 9: Bioluminescence: The Soft Glow of the Deep Sea, With Dr Steve Haddock

[Technically this was episode 7 and @arielkroon messed up her numbering, but we're going to pretend that didn't happen]

ou don't have to be a solarpunk—or a lunarpunk—to dream of bioluminescence, from twinkling phytoplankton to glowing lamps, phosphorescent fungi, and jellyfish lit up like space ships. To honor those dreams, Christina talked to Dr. Steve Haddock, Senior Scientist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) and leading expert on the things that glow, flash, and train headlights through the dark waters of the deep sea. Join us for this conversation about how bioluminescence works, what critters are capable of it and what they use it for, and whether or not our visions of bioluminescent street lamps stand a chance of coming true.

You can also follow Steve Haddock on X @beroe and learn more about bioluminescence at biolum.eemb.ucsb.edu/.

Season 1 Episode 8: Building Climate Resilience in the Western US, with Prof. Lisa Dilling

In this episode, we’re talking to Professor Lisa Dilling, of the University of Colorado, Boulder, about building networks of people through which information about regional climate predictions can flow to people and information about the needs, predicaments, and questions of people can flow to climate researchers.

As the changing climate increasingly disrupts our ways of life, we have three choices: do nothing, attempt to stop or even reverse climate change, and/or figure out how to withstand it. Option one is a terrible idea and the ship has (mostly) sailed on option two. But option three is how we learn to live—and maybe even thrive—in our changing world. Part of this is figuring out how to convey the information that climate researchers have gathered to the people—like farmers, water managers, and urban planners—who need to make decisions now—about things like what crops to plant, where to get water for everyone and how to allocate it, and where to plant trees—for both the near and slightly distant future.

Season 1 Episode 4: Coping With Climate Grief, With Chaplain Gabrielle Gelderman

In this episode of Solarpunk Presents, Ariel Kroon sits down for a virtual chat with Gabrielle Gelderman, an Edmonton, Alberta-based climate grief chaplain and climate justice organizer.

#kdrama #island #season1

Season finale the best episode so far. Impressive special effects and priest Johan (Cha Eun Woo) becoming a real badass. Again, totally credible as a priest character mastering black belt martial arts!

Still didn't like the show though, I watched it just for the demons and to find out how far the writer would go to make exorcists look like cool super-heros.

Lust demon, feel the power of this blue and shining holy water 😂!
