The Coal Retirement Plan

November 3, 2015 by Carolyn Withrow

How billionaires could pay to keep coal in the ground. This week we came across a brilliant article, crazy...but brilliant. A man named Robert Frost came up with the idea that instead of limiting the fossil fuels burned we (or rather people with more money than they know what to do with) could buy the land with the fossil fuels in it and own the mining right and well... just … [Read more...] about The Coal Retirement Plan

Our Greatest Challenge: The Double Bacon Cheese Burger

October 27, 2015 by Carolyn Withrow

You can ride your bike and recycle all you want but its nothing compared to the devastation that steak you were planning to have for dinner has caused. This week we discussed industrial farming.

The most of the info we were discussing can be found here:  … [Read more...] about The Federal Election and The Environment

Cap and Trade, the Green Party and #ShellNo

September 29, 2015 by Carolyn Withrow

On this week's show we talked mostly about the cap and trade system (a system where there is a limit to how much a company can pollute, if they are below the limit companies can sell their pollution rights to other companies in a free market) and China's commitment to reduce carbon emissions using this system as well as the New Democratic Party's promise to implement a national … [Read more...] about Cap and Trade, the Green Party and #ShellNo
