National Geographic photographer and conservationist Jaime Rojo has spent decades capturing the beauty and fragility of the monarch butterfly. Their epic migration is one of nature’s most breathtaking spectacles, but their survival is under threat. In this episode, Jaime shares how his passion for photography and conservation led him to document the monarchs’ journey. He and host Brian Lowery discuss the deeper story behind his award-winning images, one about resilience, connection, and the urgent need to protect our natural world.

In this episode I spoke with a student doing work experience at the IOR discussing how their views - and those of their friends - have changed about the sector and careers now they know more about refrigeration air conditioning and heat pumps. We talked about what kind of careers advice young people get at schools, what they think of engineering and what we can do to raise awareness of this sector. If you are not sure about whether you should take on a student for a weeks work experience we hope this podcast will help convince you of how much value they can add!…

The Tip of the Iceberg podcast - Beyond Refrigeration
This is our second podcast recorded live from the COP28 in Dubai in December 2023. This time we talked to two UK experts who are involved in the Africa Centre of Excellence, an international project that is addressing the cold chain and building capacity in Africa. Yosr Allouche of the International Institute of Refrigeration and Judith Evans of London South Bank University tell us why international collaboration is key to addressing climate change and how the ACES project is leading the way in capacity building and engaging all the right people. For more about the ACES project which is led by the University of Birmingham's Centre for Sustainable Cooling and involves amongst other UK Government DEFRA, LSBU and the International Institute of Refrigeration, see these links mentioned in the podcast https://coolingafrica.org/ https://www.sustainablecooling.org/ www.ior.org.uk/beyondrefrigeration…

In this episode I speak to UK cooling experts at the COP28 meetings in Dubai in 2023. We discussed why cooling is gathering momentum as a key part of global climate change talks, what impact the "Cool COP" and the Global Cooling Pledge signed this year by countries including the UK will have, and explore how asking questions in a different way can give us a new perspective on sustainability. Im joined by Catarina Marques FInstR of LSBU and an IOR Board Trustee and Graeme Maidment and Rachel Steller who have been involved in the initiatives such as Mission Innovation, the Global Cooling Stocktake and Global Cooling Pledge. Links to some of the items discussed UK's Transport Industrial and Commercial Refrigeration Net Zero Project led by LSBU www.netzerorefrigeration.uk The Global Cooling Pledge https://www.unep.org/resources/report/global-cooling-pledge And you can watch the Global Cooling Pledge launch event held at at COP28 here https://youtu.be/cfjlEUJ2th0?si=xyQiJ0mRUr0ujdbO Emissions Stocktake https://unfccc.int/topics/global-stocktake IOR Beyond Refrigeration Environment Initiative www.ior.org.uk/beyondrefrigeration…

This episode explores the issues raised by the IMechE Report "Adapting Industry to withstand rising temperatures and future heatwaves" and how the refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump industries need to address them. I am joined by Rob Lamb, Chris Green and Brian Churchyard, IOR members active on the IOR Beyond Refrigeration Environment group. We discussed the need for the new ways of working to ensure resilience and availability of cooling in the future - the importance of collaboration, of good design and maintenance but also of getting the right resources in place to adapt to changing condition, including non refrigeration technologies - we conclude that the industry needs to change the way it does things and start designing for more capacity and less energy. You can read the IMechE Report here https://www.imeche.org/policy-and-press/reports/detail/adapting-industry-to-withstand-rising-temperatures-and-future-heatwaves And explore the Environmental Audit Committee work on living with rising temperatures here https://committees.parliament.uk/committee/62/environmental-audit-committee/news/196119/how-can-we-learn-to-live-with-rising-uk-temperatures-and-what-steps-should-we-take-to-adapt-to-their-effects/…

In this podcast IOR President Graeme Fox argues the case for heat pumps as a critical part of the net zero agenda. He looks at the challenges of greater integration not just of heating and cooling but also joined up thinking by engineers, designers and policy makers. The podcast is an extract of a talk given in December 2022 and includes a question and answer session chaired by Dermot Cotter on behalf of the Institute of Refrigeration. The full paper is available to download at https://ior.org.uk/presidentsaddress2022 Find out more about the IOR's Beyond Refrigeration net zero work at www.ior.org.uk/beyondrefrigeration…

In this episode we talked about the issues around how to achieve the best system performance with Lisa-Jayne Cook of GEA and Ian Fisher of Mattair. Our experts shared some ideas about what we can learn from the best and worst examples in industrial processing and building cooling. Some of the topics we discussed: - whether design or maintenance is more critical to achieving good performance - how we need to get better at explaining how cooling technologies work - getting smarter about how systems are managed. Find out more about these critical elements of our path to net zero in this podcast.…

This podcast comes from a panel debate at the 2022 International conference on cold chain sustainability. Experts from international collaborative projects discussed what the critical factors are for the successful implementation of climate-friendly cold chains in developing nations. They seem to agree on the need to address wider multi-disciplinary issues and involve Government high-level objectives. Who are the key players and how can, should and are they working together in practice? The Debate is chaired by Lily Riahi of UNEP/the Cool Coalition and includes: Olivier Dubois of the FAO Brian Holuj of UNEP Leo Blyth of The World Bank Ayman Eltalouny of UNEP They discussed the ACES pan African project sited in Rwanda and you can find out more about that work at https://coolingafrica.org/ The Cool Coalition projects can be explored at https://coolcoalition.org/…

In this podcast, we talked to IOR Fellow Brian Churchyard about the complex balancing act that food retailers are facing as they work towards a net zero future. We cover environmental topics such as the interplay between direct and indirect emissions, the need to look at whole life cycle costs, as well as energy use profiles – and discuss where refrigeration fits in. What are the challenges around finding simple, cost-effective engineering solutions and what does the future look like for low carbon retail refrigeration? Brian is passionate about the opportunities for engineers to address these types of challenges, the contribution that service engineers are making and the positive impact of a successful refrigerant containment strategy. Brian also shares some good advice for anyone who wants to make a difference in the journey to net zero in any sector or role.…
