In aflevering 7 van de Amersfoort voor Vrijheid podcast introduceren wij ons nieuwe buitengewoon fractielid Jorrit van Dijk, verteld Sylvie Lazet over haar aanvaring met Theater de Flint en verteld Tom van Lamoen over de moties die hij als raadslid heeft ingediend. 

Windturbines, het nieuwe stadslogo, een lezing van econoom Hester Bais, alles komt langs in deze nieuwe aflevering van de Amersfoort voor Vrijheid podcast.

DE PODCAST - #7 Moties, windturbines en meer

Wanneer begint het opkomen voor de eigen bevolking en stopt het dienen van een groter belang? Een thema dat in vele variaties terugkeert in de gemeenteraad.  Zo ook bij de beoogde plaatsing van twee windturbines op bedrijfsterrein Isselt. De Terugluisteraar hoorde het stormen in de raadszaal, waarbij D66 en VVD elkaar probeerden om ver te blazen en andere partijen aan het wankelen sloegen. Een fundamentele discussie, die de kern van lokale democratie raakt.

De Terugluisteraar aflevering 29: Storm op Isselt

In this episode we talk with Michael Stocker about the impact sounds in our oceans have on all marine life (including low to mid-frequency sonar, shipping traffic, and blasting). Michael is founding director of Ocean Conservation Research (Sound Science Serving the Sea), where he uses his fluency in bio-acoustics to explore the impacts of noise on ocean animals to inform ocean policy and practice toward decreasing human bio-acoustic impacts on marine habitats.

Ocean Conservation Research is focused on understanding the energy and noise impacts of the industrialization of the ocean, and its consequences on marine life. They engage in marine biological and technological research based on conservation priorities. They use the products of this research to inform the policies and practice of the public, industry, and lawmakers so that we may all become stewards of the sea.

Michael is an acoustician and naturalist by trade and a musician by avocation, he has written and spoken about marine bio-acoustics and the impacts ocean noise pollution on marine life since 1992, presenting in national and regional hearings, National/Int’l TV, radio and news publications, as well as museums, schools, and universities. His understanding of both physics and biology has proven invaluable in court testimony and legal briefs, defending the environment against the dangers of human generated noise in the sea.

Michael has been a panelist and presenter at various professional, trade, and technical conferences, presenting on bio-acoustics and technology. 
He has advised and designed environments and technical online systems for a diverse array of clients including the U.S. National Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C., George Lucas’ “Skywalker Ranch,” and various premier Hollywood sound and film studios.

And as a member of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) bio-acoustics committee, and an ANSI delegate to the International Standards Organization (ISO) committee on Underwater Acoustics, Michael has been developing more accurate methods of assessing and expressing the dimensions of the marine acoustic environment and the impacts of noise on marine habitats.

Michael’s book 'Hear Where We Are : Sound, Ecology, and Sense of Place' (Springer 2013) is an assembly of ideas and understandings of human and animal sound perception.

Welcome to RESILIENT EARTH RADIO where we host speakers from the United States and around the world to talk about critical issues facing our planet and the positive actions people are taking. We also let our listeners learn how they can get involved and make a difference. Hosts are Leigh Anne Lindsey, Producer @ Sea Storm Studios and Founder of Planet Centric Media, along with Scott & Tree Mercer, Founders of Mendonoma Whale & Seal Study which gathers scientific data that is distributed to other organizations like NOAA (National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration). A focus of this podcast series are Nature-Based Economies that help rebalance the Earth and raise awareness about the value of whales, elephants, mangroves, seagrass, the deep seas, waterways and forests - our natural world - towards that rebalancing. This addresses the effects of our own human-caused climate change, and what we can do about it - from simple steps to grand gestures! Global experts, citizen scientists, activists, fisher folk, and educators examine and explain ciritical issues facing our planet and actions people are taking to mitigate and rebalance climate. We discuss the critical role of carbon storage, and how it is essential for all life forms on earth.  This awareness could lead to new laws, policies and procedures to help protect these valuable resources, and encourage economies around them to replace the existing exploitation of oceans, forests, and animals.

Taking positive action, and getting people involved, that's our goal.
