With
Wilma taking aim at the Florida coast and the hurricane center quickly
running out of names we’ll speak with global warming guru Ross Gelbspan
about "Katrina’s True Name". The author, journalist and lecturer tells
us why we should prepare for more extreme weather. We’ll also be
chatting with Laurie David, eco-activist and wife of Curb Your
Enthusiasm’s Larry David. Laurie discusses why she’s so enthusiastic
about curbing global warming as is Steve Cochran, with Environmental
Defense’s Undo It campaign. We’ll also hear why a change in the climate
is impacting trout habitat in Montana – and what it means to you – from
NRDC’s George Black.
Ross Gelbspan Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Boiling point (just published in paperback).
