    This is the time of year that condo boards have to make budget decisions that determine the maintenance fee increases for 2023, and it's always hard for board members because a) their fiduciary duty is to the association and not to individual owners and b) their decisions may result in higher maintenance fee increases, which are unpopular with many homeowners.

  • CO2, Environment, Plastics: What we Know (Thinking Things Through)

    What the Media Don’t Want You to Know.  The host for this show is Michael Sukhov.  The guest is Steve Macek.  


    In the context of the current COP 27 Climate Change Conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, we discuss the ongoing global disparity in carbon emissions between the nations of the so-called global North and global South, with specific reference to the millions of dollars in subsidies that governments and corporate entities are providing to subsidize the production and use of fossil fuels. Based upon research by Project Censored and others, the owners and managers of some corporate mass media outlets also have personal connections with the fossil fuel industry, a fact that has being significantly under-reported by those very same media outlets.  We also discuss research on the increasing presence of microplastics worldwide, in seafood, and in our bodies, and in the lungs of lung cancer patients.

  • Hawaii EV Charging Scenarios (Hawaii: State Of Clean Energy)

    Navigating a Changing Landscape.  The host for this show is Mitch Ewan.  The guest is Toby Kinkaid.  


    1.0. EV Charging in Hawaii - discussion of HECO's new EV-J schedule designed to encourage EV Charging infrastructure.  Major changes offered in this new schedule are Reduced Demand Charge (from $24/kW down to $2/kW), and low electricity prices at 3.84 cents/kWh at Midday (9am to 5pm) and all other hours billed at 12.51 cents/kWh.  This is the most progressive pricing schedule in the country, in our guest's opinion, and opens up EV charging for up to 1,000 sites throughout the Big Island, Maui, and Oahu.

    2.0 Green Hydrogen Grid - discussion of the coming transformation of the electrical grid to support an expected influx of battery EVs.  Challenges faced by Fleet Managers, and solutions using increased Solar PV and Electrolyzers to absorb all excess renewable energy to produce clean hydrogen to power EV chargers.

  • The Joy of Pain Relief (Coronavirus and Our Mental Health)

    Finding Comfort in a World of Pain.  The host for this show is Ken Burtness.  The guest is Daniel Lev.  


    Joseph Campbell told people, 'Find a place inside where there’s joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.' Great words, but hard to follow. When pain is everywhere, on television, in newspapers, all over the internet, pain that others are suffering, pain that countries are suffering, pain that the world is suffering, it is hard to find that place inside. When the pain is in people’s bodies it is hard to turn away from pain, it is hard to refocus. But if people can turn away from the agony even for a short time, the relief that is felt washes over the soul, relaxes it, calms it, helping people to function and to deal with life despite dark skies and threatening storms.
