Blogger D.R. Tucker joins me to give his top picks for most absurd and atrocious comments and coverage on the climate front this week!
Roger Shamel of the Global Warming Educational Network (GWEN),checks in to tell us about their "Go The Limit" campaign, a CO2 reducing activity that all Americans can engage in – we'll tell you how – and their efforts to get President Obama to issue a "State of the Climate" address. Roger and his wife Susan will also be participating in the Tar Sands protest, continuing outside the White House.
Daniel Kessler is communications manager for the Rain Forest Action Network. He reports from the civil disobedience protest against the Keystone XL Pipeline in D.C., where more than 270 green activists and not-the-usual-suspects, have been arrested for a cause they/we believe in!
Richard Heinberg, Senior Fellow in Residence at the Post Carbon Institute talks about his new book The End of Growth. He explains why GDP is dead and what should replace it for a more sustainable future.
Joseph Romm is a senior fellow at The Center for American Progress and the author of Hell Or High Water. He joins Betsy for insights on the latest crop of Republican deny-o-saurs, led by Rick Perry, the Governor of a state that’s literally burning up!
