With that in mind, the researchers decided to test out how effective the leftover mushroom substrate could be in removing contaminating substances from water. A 2023 report by the European Union's lending arm, the European Investment Bank (EIB), highlighted that conventional wastewater treatment methods do not fully remove micropollutants. In April, EU lawmakers approved new measures for urban wastewater treatment. In New Zealand, researchers have used fungi to treat soil contaminated by the pesticide PCP. "For example, integrating an extra treatment step into an existing wastewater treatment system requires an upfront investment to change the existing infrastructure," she said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Two freelance journalists with projects focused on Black nationalism and the aftermath of the Uvalde school shooting have won the American Mosaic Journalism Prize, which honors work about underrepresented groups in the United States. The journalists, Dara T. Mathis and Tamir Kalifa, were each awarded $100,000 from the Heising-Simons Foundation.

@brycebetts132 I've watched every video of the Sphere in Vegas and this new ad is by far my favorite. By comparison, running a billboard campaign in New York's Times Square for one to three days costs between $5,000 and $25,000, according to outdoor advertising company Inspiria Outdoor. A representative for the Sphere Entertainment Company said the company doesn't discuss financials. One TikTok video, which has notched up more than 14,000 likes, declared it " the best Sphere ad ." The Sphere debuted its first advertising campaign in September of this year and has featured brands including YouTube, the NBA, Heineken and Xbox.

Since New Year’s, storm after storm had pummeled the state, dropping epic quantities of water and snow. Houses and farms and dairies flooded, and people were using excavators to hastily build earthen dikes around their properties. In a valley where powerful interests had long jockeyed for access to water, the arguments were now about who would bear the flood. A froth of brown storm water started to spread toward the houses. Had someone intentionally cut the levee, jeopardizing Allensworth, not to mention someone else’s farm, to save his own?

Peloton Interactive Inc. named former Twitter Inc. marketer Leslie Berland as its chief marketing officer. Ms. Berland was previously chief marketing officer and head of people at Twitter, where she worked for nearly seven years. She departed the company last November along with a raft of other executives following Elon Musk ‘s takeover of the company. Ms. Berland is joining Peloton as the company attempts a comeback following a rocky 2022. Newsletter Sign-up WSJ | CMO Today CMO Today delivers the most important news of the day for media and marketing professionals.
Peloton is bringing in Leslie Berland, Twitter's former marketing head, as its next chief marketing officer, effective Wednesday. Berland left Twitter in November amid a slew of executive departures after Elon Musk's takeover, which has led to significant restructuring and revenue drops at the social media giant. Berland will report to Peloton CEO Barry McCarthy and oversee several of the fitness equipment maker's divisions including marketing, membership and global communications. Peloton is trying to shift the tides after a rough 2022, when its stock dropped more than 75%. [Berland] and the marketing team will play a central role in broadening our reach, appeal, and impact," McCarthy said in a statement Tuesday.
Peloton posted a wider-than-expected loss for its fiscal first quarter, as a steep decline in connected fitness products revenue outweighed an increase in subscription revenue. Loss per share: $1.20 vs. 64 cents, expected$1.20 vs. 64 cents, expected Revenue: $616.5 million vs. $650.1 million, expected. Peloton's revenue outlook for the holiday quarter, between $700 million and $725 million, would mark a quarter-to-quarter increase, but it's well below analysts' estimates of $874 million. Peloton reported 6.7 million total members, up from 6.3 million last year, but down from 6.9 million the prior quarter. The company reported $199 million in first quarter recall reserves, restructuring and impairment expenses as it continues embarking on its turnaround.
Peloton 's Chief People Officer Shari Eaton is leaving the company for another opportunity, she announced in a LinkedIn post Tuesday. Former CEO John Foley left his board chair position alongside fellow co-founder and Chief Legal Officer Hisao Kushi in mid-September. Previously at Amazon, Eaton was at Peloton for more than three years, joining as a vice president in the human resources division just months before the company's pandemic boom. She rose to become senior vice president of people, safety and security officer, and then global head of people. McCarthy elevated Eaton to chief people officer when he became CEO, which was a time of mass layoffs and personnel changes for the company.

Peloton's head of marketing is leaving the company, just weeks after a broader executive shake-up at the exercise equipment maker. At Peloton, she oversaw marketing and membership, reporting to CEO Barry McCarthy after the departure of Kevin Cornils, the company's chief commercial officer. She also oversaw Peloton's expansion to Australia and its partnerships with Beyonce and Usain Bolt. Treseder, who previously led marketing teams at Apple and Goldman Sachs, will be taking on the role of chief marketing officer at Autodesk.

Peloton's stock has been trading well below the IPO price of $29 per share, at one point dropping as low as $8.22. Prior to founding Peloton, Foley was president at Barnes & Noble, overseeing its e-commerce business. "I would say that it took about five years for the really smart money to start getting involved," Foley told Insider in 2018. The ad, featuring a woman whose husband gifts her a Peloton bike for Christmas, was viewed as being sexist and playing into outdated standards of beauty. Public outrage over the ad sent Peloton's stock plunging 9%, wiping out $942 million in market value in a single day.
