Trapping Urban Plastic Debris and Waste Before it Reaches the Ocean

1/4/2022

0 Comments

 
As appearing on Clean Currents Coalition

On the southern coast of Jamaica we (The Ocean Cleanup) are working to trap urban plastic debris and waste before it can enter the Atlantic Ocean, starting with containment points along the Kingston Harbour coastline, and eventually within Hunt’s Bay.

Refuse within the concrete gullies and natural waterways has been building up. In recent years, damage to infrastructure has occurred. Long an eyesore affecting the health and welfare of communities, both the inland pile-up and flow of debris into regional bodies of water are hitting new tipping points. Repercussions are altering the environment, affecting local water conditions, extending into precious mangrove forests and reducing economic value that some populations derive when a healthy coastline is lost — notably fishermen. Debris has been building for years, contributing to today’s severely clogged waterways. In recent years, the situation has caused damage to infrastructure.

Insight Through Understanding

To better understand conditions in the region, we used direct analysis and observation plus community knowledge collected by partners GraceKennedy Foundation and Clean Harbours Jamaica. GraceKennedy Foundation is one of the Caribbean’s largest community service groups. The Foundation is leading ongoing education and outreach, with one of its goals being to protect the mangroves. The Clean Harbours Jamaica organization oversees restoration of natural harbors, gullies and streams on the island. Both organizations have been able to share with us valuable insight into conditions that transpire during both the rainy and dry seasons. The GraceKennedy team will also oversee volunteer efforts for manual cleanup of the gullies. 

Whereas our cleanup plans initially anticipated deployment of an Original Interceptor™ in one gully, we have since adjusted course. Based on findings, we concluded that individually customized solutions better address conditions at each of the 11 cleanup venues. We plan to deploy our newly developed Interceptor™ Barrier, paired with one or more Interceptor™ Tenders. By strategically placing barriers, either at the mouth of or within a gully or conduit, our goal is to contain floating debris and prevent it from reaching the ocean. To test and optimize effectiveness, we will roll-out operations in two phases.

Phase 1: Interceptor Barriers at Rae Town, Barnes, Kingston Pen Gullies 

Picture
Community acceptance of operations at the Rae Town venue has been positive. This smaller village, with its significant population of fishermen, has embraced the effort and is enthusiastically supporting and sharing advice about local conditions. Gaining acceptance from a surrounding community greatly contributes to the potential for success.
During Phase 1, a test period anticipated to last a minimum of six months, Interceptor Barriers will be placed at the mouths of gullies Rae Town, Barnes and Kingston Pen. We anticipate trapping and removing everything from plastic bottles, Styrofoam containers and bagged waste, to objects as large as household appliances. All operations will be monitored and measured. Our system is most effective during wet months when rainwater pushes debris down the gullies, but Interceptor Barriers will remain in place throughout the year.

We will also pilot our newly developed Interceptor Tender, a modified version of German firm Berky’s Aquatic Weed Harvester. The Interceptor Tender can remove and transport up to 5.5 m3 of debris and will initially service the first three sites. Extractions will be coordinated according to a master schedule, with offload of each haul completed at a newly built debris collection platform. From the offload site, local waste collection agency Recycling Partners of Jamaica will gather and take debris to a managed landfill. We are training local operators Clean Harbours Jamaica to handle the cleanup efforts. This group will eventually assume responsibility for operation of all Interceptor venues in Jamaica.

Phase 2: Eight Additional Interceptor Barriers

Upon completion of a successful test period (Phase 1), Phase 2 will commence with installation of Interceptor Barriers at the eight remaining gullies, plus the addition of Interceptor Tenders to service these sites. During 2022 we anticipate reaching a significant volume of waste extraction; forecasting that by end of Phase 2, ongoing debris removal at all eleven gullies can amount to more than 900 metric tons per year.

​2021 Express 37 Nationals Sees Limitless Winning

10/19/2021

Crew of Limitless takes Express 37 Nationals yet again.
Appearing in Latitude 38, November 2021

​After a one-year hiatus, Nationals one design action returns to the Express 37 fleet. Held October 1 to 3, and hosted by the Berkeley Yacht Club, the competition attracted seven crews for three days of buoy racing, plus a long course Saturday afternoon. Eclipse (PacCup), Elan (SSS), Limitless (PacCup), Mudshark (PresYC), pHatJack (SBYC), Spindrift V (RYC) and Stewball (BYC) traversed the course in sunny day, light wind and generally smooth water.

Extending his winning streak post-Rolex Big Boat Series is Shawn Ivie on Limitless. Nearly perfect at 1-1-1-2-1-1, Ivie says that Andy Schwenk (Spindrift V) and Jack Peurach (Elan) kept him focused throughout the competition. “They remind you not to make a mistake, or you’ll easily trade positions at the finish line.”

Ivie’s crew is a mix of sailors and friends with whom he has sailed with, and against, on various boats and events over the years. The San Francisco Bay team is accented by local talent Angie Liebert, Will Paxton as tactician, and others. This is Ivie’s fifth Nationals, and fourth to race Limitless. His first year at the event was 2015, crewing aboard both Mudshark and Bullet. “The competition is, and has always been, some the best one design racing I’ve experienced. The fleet is evolving with new owners up north, like Andy Schwenk, and in other regions there is Liz Hopkins on Pazuzu, plus more.”

Taking a second overall was Schwenk, with 3-2-4-1-2-3. Things livened up for race 4 Saturday with boats ignoring the 1980s disco rule: “No parking on the dance floor.” A cluster east of the start had some turning to sidewise tactics in light wind. Bucking that tide was Schwenk, swinging wide his boat dance partners to skirt the mash up. Could be that his contrarian moves put him in the right frame of mind, carrying that winning way to a first over the line.

Also doing the dance hustle was Jack Peurach of Elan, capped by a shirtless foredeck, Hicham Mejjaty. Veteran of Express 37 racing since 2011, Peurach offered, “Our crew work got better and better as the regatta went on.  Going into the final two races, only 5-points separated third place from seventh place. I think our precision spinnaker sets and takedowns made the difference for us on Sunday, as we were able to get ourselves into third spot.” Team Elan rallied to a 6-8-2-3-3-2.

Notably absent from the waltz weekend was longtime racer Kame Richards of Golden Moon. His boat up for sale at present, Richards instead attracted racer attention at the Saturday dinner table--recounting an elegant history of e37 Nationals over the years. Those in the room are now privy to the fleet’s alternate prize, initiated in YEAR. Crafted of cardboard and featuring duct tape accordion-fold reveal name plates, each year’s winning skipper has been memorialized here in felt-tip marker or BIC pen. To crown things, the award is accented by the people’s timepiece--a busted Timex watch.

Schwenk gives props to the host site, “Berkeley Yacht Club volunteers and staff put on a first class regatta. Great courses, square lines, and getting the races off on schedule. Delicious Paella, continental breakfast, free moorage, plenty of parking--we’re coming back for their midwinter sailing.” Adds Peurach, “The fleet attracts some really strong sailors, so competition is fierce but has a great community. The Nationals at BYC is a highlight of the season, and for the last few years we've been fortunate to have boats travel all the way from So. Cal. for this regatta.”

The Express 37 was designed by Carl Schumacher. He commissioned builder Terry Alsberg, who was already producing the popular Express 27. From 1984 to 1988, The Alsberg Brothers Boatworks in Santa Cruz, California, pumped out a total 65 vessels. No longer in production, the Express 37 model finished first, second and third while debuting during the 1985 Transpacific Yacht Race.

Traveling to Mexico in COVID times

10/19/2021

2 Comments

 
For many Californians, a quick trip to Mexico is a constant in their annual vacay plan. Five to seven days relaxation in a beach town—Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, Acapulco, Mazatlan—is still fairly inexpensive. Getting to a west coast retreat is quick. Snag a direct flight and some locations give toes-in-the-sand within three hours from SFO.
 
A favorite spot is Puerto Vallarta, located smack in the center of the Bay of Banderas, a five hour drive west from Guadalajara. The adage “there’s something for everyone” rings clear as a church bell in this Jalisco state city. The region’s variety of topography, generally-pleasing climate, range of available activities and breadth of pricing options make it a hotspot for hippie, Instafamer, jetsetter and almost everyone in between. For me, being there guarantees an eclectic mix of serendipity that never fails to entertain. During my recent trip, I gained a menu sneak peek and taste at four Puerto Vallarta establishments that will participate in Restaurant Week, Sept 15 to October 10. Chefs will create three-course dining experiences priced at up to 60 percent less than normal. Each establishment determines whether to offer a meal at roughly $15, $21 or $25 USD equivalent.
 
I visited Hacienda San Angel, Café des Artistes, Trattoria di Nuovo and Kaiser Maximilian. Aside from some of the most splendid meal preparation, the hospitality and service at each venue was incredibly welcoming. Each business has operated in the Puerto Vallarta Old Town area for numerous years; in fact, Café des Artistes was celebrating 30 years in the same location—albeit growing and expanding to now offer dining in various ambiances including garden, terrace, bar/lounge, formal indoor and private salon. Founded and directed by Thierry Blouet, the Puerto Vallarta location has at its helm Chef Lara Castellón. One of her creations to be featured during Restaurant Week is an inverted tostada appetizer—catch of the day ceviche with green aquachile topped by a mini crunchy tostada. My meal was followed by the restaurant’s longstanding guest favorite prawn and castile squash cream soup. The ensuing course was a piquant and smoky plate of sea bass with red enmoladas. I understand how meals can easily extend to two or more hours—the service is timed to perfection with excellent conversation and education by servers. While waiting for presentation of the softest fillet accented by red wine and shallots served atop puree of cauliflower, the attendant shared highlights from an extensive wine list. Vintages from Spain, Germany, Austria, Mexico, California and France filled the selection.

Puerto Vallarta Restaurant Week: dining at Hacienda San Angel.
Hacienda San Angel offers open-air dining with a view in a formal setting. Reservations are required to enter this collection of historic villas that have been restored over numerous years by the recently deceased founder /philanthropist from San Francisco, Janice Chatterton. As with Café des Artistes, the presentation of each plate was impeccable and artistic. My palette was introduced first to a ceviche accented with touches of habanero, diced tomato and mango, encircled by a mango curl, then topped with crown of shoestring crisps—mellow heat cooled by juicy tropical flavors. This was followed by a generous portion of firm, yet flakey, dorado (mahi-mahi) dressed with rows of thinly sliced, placed and seared potato. Papaya, mango and melon dotted the plate perimeter. My host, Alejandro, has worked at Hacienda San Angel for nine years. Among the ingredients and Spanish words he introduced to me was higo, or fig. Zuccotto con higo capped the meal, rich and sweetened by a berries sauce and row of meringue.
 
A third venue visited was Trattoria di Nuovo, owned and operated by Nohemi Heredia. Celebrating eleven years in business, this casual bistro is tucked away on Basilio Badillo street. Its unassuming entrance gives way to a surprising secret garden that opens to the sky. Italian in vibe with red and white checked tablecloths, Sofia Loren in picture frames, plus candle and cheerful yellow flower at each table, I found this venue to be exceedingly comfortable, surpassed only by the geniality of each staff member, as well as Nohemi herself. Chef Luis Villasenor Bobadilla prepared in front of me three items from their Restaurant Week menu, starting with a beet salad adorned with creamy sweet dressing, soft goat cheese, plus candied walnuts. A nice feature of this trattoria is its open kitchen—which made for the option to photograph preparation of each course. As a main, a generous bowl of pasta dotted with catch of the day, pargo, in tangy Kalamata olive and lemony veloute sauce was created. Nohemi shared that for this recipe, the chef rotates between using one of three Banderas Bay fish types: dorado (mahi-mahi), pargo and huachinango (both from the red snapper family). Dessert was a surprise—fried, light and crispy chocolate raviolis filled with banana and drowned in affogato sauce. Portions were hearty. Good thing my hotel was located several blocks away and uphill.

Capping off the restaurant tour was a visit to Kaiser Maximilian, and a shared meal with owners Andreas and wife Maria Cecila. Having dined at this restaurant more than 20 years ago, it was intriguing to learn more about how the venue had changed over 26 years. I also gained more insight into the influences of “Maximiliano.”  Maximilian of Habsburg (Vienna 1832 - Mexico 1867) was an archduke of the House of Habsburg, brother of the Austrian Emperor Francisco José, plus son-in-law of the Belgian King Leopold I. In 1864 he became Emperor of Mexico, arriving with his wife Carlota that same year. His tenure was neither positive nor long-lived; he succumb to a sentence of death in 1867. This Austrian bistro is a tribute to the late ruler, and offers fine dining in main salon and casual fare plus European coffees throughout the day in an adjacent space.

The dinner menu is a wide range of fare taking European, Mexican and continental influences. An extensive wine list and full bar are on site. As a greeting, I was offered two signature drinks: one featuring a very smoky mezcal with glass rimmed by crushed chapulines, better known as those crunchy cricket snacks popular in southern Mexico, particularly Oaxaca. A second chilled beverage featuring Elderberry was crisp and light. Akin to a spritzer, I thought it highly suited for slow sipping. The appetizer of tacos de pato confitado was a surprising blend of duck in Oaxacan sauce of cinnamon and ground pumpkin seeds, capped with colorful mango relish. Dinner was a thick cut of red snapper and zesty cilantro topping, plus companion fresh vegetables. During Restaurant Week, Kaiser Maximilian will offer Pot de Creme de Chocolate, Pastel de Queso (sour cream cheesecake with coconut crust topped by poached fruits) and Copa Maximilian (pecan and vanilla ice cream with banana, Kahlua and whipped cream) on its dessert menu.

​Within Mexico, Puerto Vallarta is ranked number two for gastronomy, following Mexico City. Estimates state there to be more than 500 places to dine. Seafood is a staple on most menus, but beef (such as the $100 cut of steak at Sonora Prime in the Marina area), chicken, veal, duck, vegetarian and many more options abound. The selection is overwhelming. Loud and brash dining featuring Americanized menus dominate the Malecon, but you can walk south along the beach boardwalk and find a bit less frenzy for your sunset dining. Alternatively, head inland for quieter surroundings, better prices, more authentic preparations. Many hotels and resorts also offer exquisite options, sunset views and late evening meals.

 
Is It Safe to Travel to Mexico: What to Expect
From Baja to Cancun, Mexico tourism thudded to a halt for many months. Complete shutdowns were the norm for several months starting in April last year. Yet despite early predictions that Mexico beach destinations would take until 2022 to recover, seems to be not the case for Puerto Vallarta. Puerto Vallarta Daily reports that versus July 2019 (pre-COVID-19), July 2021 saw a tourist tally increase of 14.4 percent. The vast majority of visitors hail from the United States. This influx is attributed to summer holiday intentions, pent-up demand, and ease of travel to Mexico. As of August, the country does not require visitors to quarantine, show proof of vaccination or negative test results for COVID-19 in order to enter by air.
 
The unfortunate news is that the delta variant has arrived. As of July 30, the Governor of Jalisco designated the region a red zone. Night clubs and bars must remain closed during August, restaurant capacity is to be capped at 50 percent. The good news is that, overall, locals in the urban areas of Puerto Vallarta are compliant regarding use of facial masks, but in outlying regions this is less the case. The biggest no-mask culprits seem to be the American tourists. Canadian citizens, usually as visible as US visitors, were scarce in Puerto Vallarta. Guests from Europe seemed absent. A few from Asia were seen. Regarding accommodations in the area, the major hotel operators are rigorous when it comes to setting and following protocols for cleanliness; the smaller chains and residences seem less astute. Mexican businesses are very good about conducting temperature checks before permitting access to a venue; view this requirement as one way to personally monitor your own well-being on a daily basis. Hand sanitizing stations and attendants are omnipresent at entrances, exits and scattered locations inside.
 
With traveller count up, lines are longer. Zigzag back and forth lines for extended periods of time will likely be the norm; it’s here where folks tend to forget the distancing rule. Travel is also a bit more complicated, in particular taking a return flight to the U.S. Valid passport in-hand; check. Still have your portion of the immigration form; check. Twenty-four hour online check-in; done. Completion of online attestation within 12-hours of flight departure; that’s a new task. Obtaining, then showing, negative proof of COVID-19 presence: another to-do item. For this, testing must be conducted by an approved vendor no more than 72-hours before flight departure time. On the plus, numerous locations around Puerto Vallarta offer both antigen and RPC testing (varying fees). The airport has been the lowest at roughly $25 for an antigen test, but rates are changing soon. For this location, results are delivered to an email within an hour. Other venues charge as much as $150 for a test, and results may take up to a day to receive. The 24-hour test tent at the PVR airport does not require an appointment, but most other locations do. Book an appointment well in advance, and know that nearly all locations are closed on Sundays, and some remain closed on Mondays.

Navigating A Potentially Difficult Year: Data-Driven Conversation

5/2/2020

0 Comments

 
Ghostwritten piece for client Zesty.ai
Current climate conditions in California reveal that 2020 may have a higher than normal risk for wildfire losses. The probability that California will undergo losses of more than $10Bn in a non-drought year is ~2.5% (1 in 40 years) but that probability jumps to 3.5 % in a drought year (a whopping 40% increase). The combination of high resolution aerial imagery, property-level loss history and artificial intelligence (AI) can yield actionable insight into where future fires are more likely to flare up and how structures may fare if involved in a fire perimeter. That data can be used to help insurers better understand risk and increase transparency with homeowners, agents, and regulators.
PictureWritten for client Zesty.ai
California’s unrelenting wildfire threat faces additional challenges from ever-increasing scrutiny and government regulation. For carriers and reinsurers who underwrite property insurance in the state, things are getting more complicated.

The increased severity of recent years’ wildfire events combined with the failure of traditional catastrophe risk models, it has become more difficult for carriers to underwrite property risk in California. While many of us associate “wildfire season” with summer through early fall, what happens during the preceding winter and spring is equally important. In California, summer typically brings prolonged spells of hot weather, strong wind activity and notably little precipitation. Reduction in the amount of precipitation (rain and/or snow) during preceding winter and spring months—a situation California is experiencing more and more— results in drought. These drought conditions further contribute to a heightened potential for significant wildfires.

California Under the Microscope: Drought is a Leading Indicator
Early in the winter, drought conditions persisted around California. “State firefighters have responded to280 small wildfires since the beginning of the year [2020]. In the same period last year [2019], there were just 85 reported fires,” cited a spokesman from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, Scott McLean, in a February 28 NY Post article. One of the larger fires, the Antelope, Sierra County fire resulted in statewide attention.On March 3rd, dry conditions led to fire evacuations near Riverside, California, when a fire spread along the wildland–urban interface. Since February, soaking rains in the southern half of the state brought 41.8% of California to normal rainfall levels as of mid-April. Northern California is still contending with significant drought, suggesting that we may still have a significant fire season ahead of us this year for portions of the state.

Picture
To assess the likelihood and level of losses from potential wildfire events, we should consider three key variables: heat, wind, and lack of moisture. Both heat and wind activity can only be predicted in 10 to 14 day forecast windows. These narrow and not always accurate windows are of little use to the insurance industry. The third variable however, lack of moisture, is a strongly correlated indicator for a challenging year. Lack of moisture can be more easily tracked and its absence affects an entire season. From studying more than 1,200 wildfire incidents, we know that prolonged drought-like conditions tend to exacerbate the spread of wildfires.

Historically, the Sierra Nevada snowpack provides roughly 30% of California’s water. These images give a clear indicator that very little moisture is present, compared to the same time in 2017. On April 1st, the California Department of Water Resources stated that March precipitation had not been enough to offset the dry winter. As of April 14th, experts deem roughly 22% of the state to be “abnormally dry,” and almost 23% is experiencing “moderate drought” conditions. In addition, nearly 13% of the state has reached “severe drought”. The chance that rainfall will occur in California between May and the end of October is very low. While late season rain through the end of April is possible, mounting evidence seems to portend that 2020 losses have a much higher chance of being significant, particularly in Northern California, if prolonged periods of little precipitation prevail.

2020 California Wildfire Season and Coronavirus, Zesty.ai CEO Thought Leadership Article

4/25/2020

Ghostwritten piece for Zesty.ai founder & CEO, Attila Toth;  appearing on Zesty.ai LinkedIn page

Like most business leaders, COVID-19 has absorbed a large portion of my mindshare for the last month. Our company has a deep focus on foreseeing climate risk. We can’t help but think ahead to how our customers and communities may be affected by the virus for the months to come. The inherent danger that a potentially intense wildfire season poses is further increased by a lack of preparedness. In case of a devastating fire event need for continued social distancing would make the implementation of a potential evacuation order extremely challenging. Also, smoke not only poses a nuisance to people that are sheltered in place, but a serious threat to coronavirus patients with compromised respiratory systems.

With the tremendous and ever-growing financial cost going to fight the spread of coronavirus, let alone the breadth and risk of lives to first responders, how will California face a second major disaster—a difficult fire season? Despite late-winter rain, 75% of California is still considered either abnormally dry or in a moderate drought. Even an average fire season in 2020 could be disastrous when combined with the impact of coronavirus. California’s governor has already warned state agencies to expect less funding as the ailing economy will result in far less tax collected than initially expected.

The economic impact of coronavirus has not yet been measured, but it will be enormous. What we do know is that as of early March, the Legislative Analyst's Office warned that collection of capital gains tax alone in California will be several billion dollars lower than expected. The question on the minds of people near historic burn zones is: will a beleaguered California still have cash and manpower left to fight a second enemy—the upcoming wildfire season? The stress, not to mention levels of danger, being experienced by the state’s finite number of trained first responder doctors and nurses is as profound as the cost. Ben Christopher's recent article for Calmatters succinctly takes up this point, stating that major fire events will: “test the resilience of California’s decade-long boom and the adequacy of its $18 billion cash reserve.”  The cost of wildfire cannot be understated. 2018 estimates saw total damage and economic loss at $400 billion and $85 billion in 2017 (includes both insured and uninsured losses and the impact on the economy). If an active fire season erupts, California and its first responders will yet again face tremendous risks while holding the line.

Coronavirus remains a massive wildcard. With the wildfire season coming, vast numbers of California fire first responders are not even able to train due to mandated shelter-in-place orders. The U.S. Forest Service has cancelled in-person fire training, planning and risk assessment meetings, and much of its preventative burn program. The burn program is on hold to avoid worsening respiratory symptoms. The agency had planned to increase burn programs in 2020 in response to the increased damage caused by recent fires.

California is an incredibly resilient place. It constantly picks itself back up, usually with the help of both disaster aid and insurance, after natural disasters like wildfires, earthquakes, landslides. The state also has an uncanny ability to rapidly redefine itself with the aid of technology. Yet, it is going to be hard. Large scale fires have become a new normal for the region. It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when and how bad the season will be.

As with most San Francisco Bay Area firms, Zesty.ai is doing its part by keeping its workforce at home. While we thrive on the camaraderie that comes from working side by side, we fully acknowledge sacrifices are essential today in order to protect our tomorrow. We continue to develop tools that will provide insurers with the insights they need to better prepare for decisions about the upcoming fire season. We’re turning what could have been isolation into concentration, and making sure that we do everything we can to make sure our customers are ready for what the rest of this year may bring.
