Let us hear why Greenpeace has sued the Department of
Interior for failing to protect polar bears from the rapidly growing
effects of global warming (the first such suit of its kind). Chris Miller, with the Greenpeace energy team, will tell us why the plight of the polar bear is something that should keep us all awake at night. Listen (8 min)
We’ll then take a carbon-free trip to Hawaii and learn about plans underway to make the 50th state first
in comprehensive development and use of renewable energy (the islands
get a lot of sun power!). We’ll get the story direct from Kyle Datta, with the Rocky Mountain Institute ,
which helped inspire the Aloha State’s Republican governor to go green! Listen (7 min)
