EPA Scientists Protest

Sprayer_1
Shana Weber talks with with Francesca Grifo, Director of the Scientific Integrity Program for the Union of Concerned Scientists about EPA Scientists Protesting Pending Pesticides Approvals via a letter sent to EPA’s Director. The
fact that this letter had to be sent at all is an utter disgrace but,
even more disgraceful, is the likelihood that this warning will be
disregarded by an agency that is supposed to be protecting public
health and the environment.

William Craven

At EcoTalk,
Will Craven
has
found the perfect synthesis of his passion for written communication,
the medium of radio, and social progress. Getting his start in radio as
a Jazz DJ with an NPR affiliate in North Carolina, Will has since
graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a degree in
English, taught in Japan for two years, attended a Summer program at the
London School of Economics, and worked for the Department of Elections
in San Francisco. As someone who does not come from an environmental
background, Will has felt firsthand how learning to make small changes
to one’s
lifestyle can, little by little, empower a person to become a sensible
steward of the earth.
