Consider This on August 1, 2014 - Extinction Studies http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/entry/august-1-2014-extinction-studies http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/entry/august-1-2014-extinction-studies My guest on this program is Thom van Dooren, environmental philosopher and anthropologist at the University of New South Wales, Australia. His research is situated in the interdisciplinary field of the environmental humanities, focusing on some of the many philosophical, ethical, cultural and political issues that arise in the context of species extinctions. He is the author most recently of Flight Ways: Life and Loss at the Edge of Extinction, and his previous book is Vulture.

The Great Irrigation Debate (Not exactly) - Robert Kourik and John Kempf - July 21, 2014 http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/the-farm-and-garden-show/entry/the-great-irrigation-debate-robert-kourik-and-john-kempf http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/the-farm-and-garden-show/entry/the-great-irrigation-debate-robert-kourik-and-john-kempf We have not yet posted the archive of this show.  It will be done around mid-August, perhaps sooner.

Robert Kourik is edible landscaper and author of books on Drip Irrigation, Roots Demystified, and Designing and Maintaining Your Edible Landscape Naturally. 

John Kempf is founder and CEO of Advancing Eco Agriculture which provides education on what makes plants reach their full potential, and provides plant nutrients.

The show turned out less a debate and more an in-depth discussion of making soil that supports plant immunity from pests and disease, for which water is a key essential element.  It was agreed that fairly frequent (daily) irrigation makes sense, though for trees John Kempf thought less often made sense.  I would say consider frequent watering when the tree is growing feeder roots: the several weeks after petal fall and again after buds are set for next year (in CA, late April-Late May and August) and less often in other times.  One of the more novel (to the hosts) ideas was that of the 4-level plant health pyramid

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbsmOx2ZPoA

of plant health and where various diseases and insect pests cannot get beyond.  The first level, complex carbohydrates, will resist soil-borne pathogens like verticillium wilt, phytopthera to some extent.  Aphid and whitefly and a number of soft-bodied pests (at the infestation level) indicate lack of proteins (second level not reached) that can be corrected with things like soft rock phosphate, oystershell lime, gypsum; and for trace minerals, Azomite, kelp meal, or greensand (or in some cases specific trace minerals if indicated by a soil test).  Beetles are harder to repel and require not just lipids (level 3) where air-borne pathogens are stopped (mildews) but also Plant Secondary Metabolites (like essential oils).  To acheive level 3 and level 4, the soil biology is key.

PODCAST POSTED: Wildoak Living July 21 - GRASS, SOIL, Hope: Journey through Carbon Country - COURTNEY WHITE http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/wildoak-living/entry/podcast-posted-wildoak-living-july-21-grass-soil-hope-journey-through-carbon-country-courtney-white http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/wildoak-living/entry/podcast-posted-wildoak-living-july-21-grass-soil-hope-journey-through-carbon-country-courtney-white

HERE IS A RECORDING of Johanna “Wildoak's" July 21 interview with Courtney White, author of Grass, Soil, Hope: A Journey through Carbon Country, with a foreword by Michael Pollan  http://media.kzyx.org/mp3/wildoak/.

There may be a 75% chance that this summer will be the hottest on record. That’s why White’s soil-based prescription for cooling climate change
may prove welcome news.

Last year, the CO2 level in our atmosphere eclipsed 400 parts per million for the first time in five million years. Scientists seem to agree that a habitable CO2 level is around 350 ppm. Researchers furthermore project that, given our current path, we will near 600-700 ppm by the end of the century.

In the face of such news, is there any reason to sustain hope? Is there any meaningful action we can take? That's what city boy-turned-carbon rancher White asked. What he found over the past two decades is that there is a way to take carbon out of the atmosphere and bind it to the soil.

In his book Grass, Soil, Hope, White lays out the science and practice. He argues that we all have a stake in this work and that we all--
from gardeners to ranchers, countryfolk to urban dwellers--can and must contribute to it.

By expanding the use of low-tech efforts already employed around the globe-- such as no-till farming, composting, restoring watersheds and producing local food--we might be able to make a critical difference.
           
A former Sierra Club activist who dropped out of what he calls the "conflict industry," White has since helped found the Quivira Coalition, a non-profit dedicated to building bridges between ranchers, conservationists, public land managers, scientists and others around the idea of land health. By starting Quivira, he waded into the middle of the grazing wars rampant in the West in a deliberate attempt to create a "third position" outside the continuum of combat.

PODCAST POSTED: Wildoak Living July 7 - Kate Marianchild - SECRETS OF THE OAK WOODLANDS http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/wildoak-living/entry/podcast-posted-wildoak-living-july-7-kate-marianchild-secrets-of-the-oak-woodlands http://www.kzyx.org/index.php/talk-shows/self-help-and-sustainability/wildoak-living/entry/podcast-posted-wildoak-living-july-7-kate-marianchild-secrets-of-the-oak-woodlands Here is a recording of my Monday, July 7 interview with local author Kate Marianchild about her new book, Secrets of the Oak Woodlands: Plants and Animals among California’s Oaks.  Click here to listen or download this interview.
http://wildoak.org/Wildoak_Living/Connection/Entries/2014/7/7_Kate_Marianchild_-_SECRETS_OF_THE_OAK_WOODLANDS.html

The book is now available at local bookstores and at
https://heydaybooks.com/book/secrets-of-the-oak-woodlands-plants-and-animals-among-californias-oaks/#.

Many Californians live in or near oak woodlands. Yet, while common, oak woodlands are anything but ordinary. In a book rich in illustration by Ann Meyer Maglinte, author Kate Marianchild gives us a glimpse into the marvels of oak woodland communities. She combines extensive research and years of personal experience to explore some of the marvelous plants and animals that the oak woodlands nurture.

Kate and Johanna talk about how she migrated to and fell in love with the oak woodlands ecosystem of inland Mendocino County in 2001. With a storyteller skill, Kate conveys up-to-the-minute scientific findings and introduces us to a host of remarkable creatures in a world close by,  a world that “rustles, hums, and sings with the sounds of wild things”, for example, how:

  • Acorn woodpeckers unite in marriages of up to ten mates and raise their young cooperatively.
  • Ground squirrels roll in rattlesnake skins to hide their scent from hungry snakes.
  • Manzanita’s rust-colored, paper-thin bark peels away in time for the summer solstice, exposing sinuous contours that are cool to the touch even on the hottest day.
