• The Doomsday Seed Vault

  For years now, the Norwegian government has partnered with conservation groups to store seeds from around the world on an archipelago not far from the North Pole. The seeds are basically backups meant to secure the world's food supply in case the original supply is ever compromised—by war or natural disaster, for example. Adam and Cameron discuss the Svalbard Global Seed Vault and how it works. Also on the show: the economics of Alaska. For more on seeds, listen to ⁠State of Seed⁠, a podcast by the International Seed Federation with production services from FP Studios.

• Whither Global Development?

  Some 10 years ago, the United Nations came up with its Sustainable Development Goals, a series of objectives for the world around alleviating poverty and protecting the planet. But these days, it's clear that very few of those goals will be met by the target date of 2030. What happened? And what does the Trump administration's retreat from international development mean for the world? Adam and Cameron dig in. A note to potential advertisers: Ones and Tooze is looking for a lead sponsor interested in underwriting the show for a year in exchange for advertising and promotional opportunities in all 52 episodes.
