In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Coral reefs rank as some of the planet’s most vital ecosystems. Although they cover just 0.2 percent of oceans, reefs are home to a quarter of marine biodiversity. Scientists warn they could vanish in as little as a decade, unless we rapidly slow the rate of global warming. In Monaco, a team of scientists have decided to create a "Noah's Ark" for coral reefs, hoping to collect and preserve all species known to humankind before it's too late.

Fancy an avocado? Try a French one! 8:12

منذ 10 أيام8:12

8:12

Celebrated as a superfood, avocados are so popular in Europe and North America that global production has tripled in two decades. But their farming and transport worldwide raise environmental concerns. As Europe's top consumer, France is now growing its own, a surprising move given that avocados are a subtropical fruit.

Could dead leaves turn into green gold? 4:20

منذ 27 يومًا4:20

4:20

Imagine a world where we could make paper, cardboard and packaging without cutting down a single tree. Today, that dream is becoming reality. The start-up Releaf Paper turns fallen leaves into value. It was founded by a Ukrainian scientist, who moved to France before Russia's full-scale invasion to set up a pilot factory in the suburbs of Paris. Production only started a few months ago, with promises of greener goods and a circular economy. FRANCE 24's Aurore Cloé Dupuis, Alexandra Renard and Jonathan Walsh report.…

Would you live in a cardboard house? 6:32

6:32

The construction industry is one of the biggest polluters in the world, consuming half of the planet’s natural resources, 40 percent of its energy and 16 percent of its water, as well as generating greenhouse gas emissions and waste. But here in France, the company Bat'Ipac has found an alternative: building with recycled cardboard instead of concrete. FRANCE 24's Alexandra Renard and Aurore Cloé Dupuis report.…

Climate crisis and displacement: Flood victims in France seek recognition 5:58

منذ 12 weeks5:58

5:58

One year after France’s northern Pas-de-Calais region was hit by record floods, victims are still recovering from the disaster. FRANCE 24 visited the town of Blendecques, where an entire neighbourhood is set to be demolished and transformed into a stormwater basin to prevent future flooding. Residents now say they're among the first in France to have been "displaced" by the climate crisis.…

Nearly three years after more than 100 countries promised to tame methane emissions, the indiscriminate release of this powerful greenhouse gas is still rampant. FRANCE 24's reporters followed the trail of methane leaks in Romania, home to one of Europe's largest oil reserves.

Hatching of baby turtles in south of France puzzles scientists 4:58

منذ 19 weeks4:58

4:58

Turtles have inhabited our oceans for over 150 million years, ever since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Yet today, six out of seven living species are considered endangered. They usually live in tropical waters. However, since the late 2000s, one species – the loggerhead sea turtle – has been coming to lay its eggs in the south of France. Scientists believe that this unprecedented phenomenon could be linked to rising global temperatures. The Down to Earth team reports.…

'They see with their noses': Detector dogs trained to sniff out water leaks 4:31

منذ 21 weeks4:31

4:31

From crop failures to shrinking lakes, Europe is increasingly suffering from a lack of water. According to the European Environment Agency, around 30 percent of the continent's population is already affected by shortages. Preventing water leaks has become a priority for many cities. In France, a special dog brigade has been trained to locate leaky pipes. As the dogs are able to detect chlorine, they can pinpoint leaks quickly and efficiently. Our team at Down to Earth reports.…

A Swiss NGO wants to protect both sheep and wolves. Its plan? Scaring off the predator 4:53

منذ 23 weeks4:53

4:53

Can man and wolves coexist? Several European countries are grappling with this question, as wolves naturally regain ground across the continent. Switzerland is the latest country that's having to adapt to their return. Wolves were first spotted there in 2012, with their numbers tripling to reach at least 300. Shepherds have since had to face growing attacks, but one NGO has made it its mission to reconcile sheep and wolves, offering a unique service to help. Our Down to Earth team reports.…

Paris's plan to ditch ACs and expand urban cooling system 3:39

منذ 25 weeks3:39

3:39

Around the world, record-shattering temperatures are feeding demand for air conditioning. 135 million individual ACs are sold every year, a figure set to triple by 2050 according to the International Energy Agency. This rush to cool air could in turn become a major driver of electricity consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In Paris, a little-known network of underground water pipes aims to cool down buildings, without resorting to polluting AC units.…

The Olympics are usually an environmental disaster. Can Paris be the exception? 3:27

منذ 32 weeks3:27

3:27

Organisers of the Paris Olympics have promised the event will be "historic for the climate". As part of its climate strategy, the committee established a goal of generating no more than half the planet-warming gases produced by previous Summer Games in London and Rio, pledging to slash emissions in three main categories: construction, transportation and operations. So how is Paris faring, compared to its predecessors? And can a planetary event like the Olympics ever be sustainable?…

An Australian environmental activist has become the first person to run the entire length of the Seine River, a total of 848km from its source to the sea, in 30 days. Mina Guli set off on this epic journey last month to draw attention to efforts being made to clean up the Seine, and the need for all cities to restore rivers. The 53-year-old completed her Seine River Run challenge earlier in July, crossing the finishing line in the port city of Le Havre.…

French scientists launch programme to decode DNA of marine species 4:48

Over the next eight years, scientists will study the DNA of 4,500 marine species found along France's coastline and overseas territories. The ATLASea programme aims to collect specimens of fish, mammals and algae whose genomes have never been sequenced before in order to draw up a genetic “map” of underwater life. Researchers hope the database will eventually contribute to the discovery of new molecules for use in medicine, agriculture and other fields.…

There's less than a month to go before the Olympics kick off in Paris. It's a big event for athletes but also for chefs, who are getting ready to serve over 40,000 meals per day. As part of a pledge to limit greenhouse gas emissions, the Paris Games are set to make history by offering more vegetarian cuisine than any previous edition. The committee says the event's plant-based offering will help halve the carbon footprint of meals, compared to the Rio and London games. Our team at Down to Earth got to have a taste.…
