The start of the Putah Creek Council with Carrie Shaw, Imagining Yolo Davis, Nov. 3, 2023

Fri, 11/03/2023 - 6:10pm | Pieter Pastoor

LOGO IMAGINING YD.jpg

This week on Imagining Yolo Davis we welcome Carrie Shaw. She and the other founding members of the Putah Creek Council show us what volunteers can achieve. Whether it's helping one individual, one tree, one pet -- or in this case, reviving a creek -- volunteers make a huge difference.

So listen in as Carrie describes the beginning of the council. We close the show with Creedence Clearwater's 1969 hit song "Green River," which is about Putah Creek.

Davisville, Oct. 30, 2023: Oobli, part of Davis food-tech evolution, sees sweet future in sweet proteins

Mon, 10/30/2023 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Oobli sign, Cousteau Place, Davis.JPG

Today’s Davisville involves Davis, food, the invention of new food products, and potentially good news for the environment, depending on how this idea develops.

The topic is sweet proteins, a sugar alternative probably new to most of us, and Oobli, a Davis company using these proteins to create sweet teas and chocolates that just went on the market. Our guest is the company’s co-founder and chief technology officer, Jason Ryder. He also teaches at UC Berkeley, where he earned a PhD in chemical engineering.
