鬼島之音（Ghost Island Media）元老級的英文 PODCAST ——《Waste Not Why Not》以詼諧逗趣的風格包裝全球環境議題，並透過專家訪談、田野採訪、及新聞動態與評論，提升聽眾對永續發展的想像與知識。
與「美國在台協會」AIT 攜手合作
世界共有 134 個國家已宣布「淨零排放」，其中，美國與台灣政府也打造了實現 2050 年淨零排放的藍圖。節能減碳不只是能延長地球的未來，更能提升人類的生活品質，永續之路須有跨界的參與，需要政府、企業、及大眾一同實現跨產業及跨世代合作，起身落實於家園、工作以及生活中。今年五月，鬼島之音及AIT送上斬新的迷你系列，眼於五種主圖：綠色建築、電動越野車、珊瑚礁海洋生態、再生能源投資、與循環經濟，他們跳脫舊有思維，賦予產業新生命。
