Earthworks' Sharon Wilson Talks About The Impact of Fracking Dec 08, 2011

Show notes

With the pressure on the United States to develop alternatives to fossil fuels and eliminate our dependency upon foreign oil, there is a race to tap into the natural resources available on our own soil. In the last decade, new technologies in hydraulic fracturing have opened up domestic shale gas and oil reserves. But the drilling boom has brought with it serious concerns over the health and environmental impacts of an industry that uses large volumes of toxic chemicals in close proximity to communities. As the natural gas development progresses, environmentalists, activists, scientists and citizens continue to press for regulation and corporate accountability. There also have been concerns over the tactics being used to stifle the opposition which are extraneous and unprecedented. Sharon Wilson, the Gulf Regional Organizer from EARTHWORKS’ Oil and Gas Accountability Project recently attended an industry PR conference where she recorded representatives from the natural gas industry recommending using the US Army/Marine Insurgency Manual and also admitting that they employ ex-military Psy Ops personnel in selected neighborhoods. Although the recording of this oil executive has been played on cnbc.com and other media outlets it still has not received the national attention it should. Regardless, it does put the spotlight on a global concern regarding the amount of control corporations have within the United States. This in turn lends itself to supporting groups who are demanding immediate reform as regulations are put into place to enforce responsibility. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will be joined by special guest Sharon Wilson, who will discuss the impact of fracking, the tactics being deployed and why the public needs to be more informed. Stay tuned.

Tom Theobald: The Purdue Study On Systemic Pesticides Dec 07, 2011

Show notes

There is a growing body of evidence from both science and practical experience that the systemic pesticides are having a disastrous effect not only on honeybees and other pollinators but are wreaking wide-spread damage to the environment. Anyone who is not familiar with these systemic pesticides makes light of the issue at hand. However, as more credible information is published it is more difficult for the devastation caused by these chemicals to be ignored. There is a study which has been conducted by Purdue scientists about the role of systemic pesticides in bee losses which will soon be published in PLoS ONE (The Public Library of Science (PLoS) which is a non-profit organization of scientists and physicians committed to making the world's scientific and medical literature a freely available public resource.) Tom Theobald, President and founding board member of the Boulder County Beekeepers' Association has been working towards getting the registration process of these systemic pesticides reformed. Tom is also the owner of the Niwot Honey Farm. Tom was the last County Bee Inspector in the state of Colorado, a position created in 1891 and retired in 2000.

Dr. Sandra Steingraber: Living Downstream Dec 06, 2011

Show notes

Imagine your life at twenty years old. Now imagine it with cancer. This was the bewildering situation Dr. Sandra Steingraber faced as a college student. However, instead of allowing the diagnosis to devastate her, she went on a mission to gather as many answers as she could as to why she and other members of her adoptive family had developed cancer in the first place. She was determined to find out what really needs to change in order to prevent other people from going through what she had. Living Downstream An Ecologist’s Personal investigation of Cancer and the Environment, takes a very close look at the actual relationship that cancer has in conjunction to the environment, genetics and lifestyle as a combination. Dr. Steingraber shares her own personal story of being a bladder cancer survivor and addresses the scientific findings that have emerged in the dozen or so years since the book’s original publication—including the role of endocrine disruption, chemical mixtures, prenatal exposures, and epigenetics. She also shows how developments in green energy will benefit not only the environment but human health. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to Dr.Sandra Steingraber about her story and how people can empower themselves to bring about change.

Organic Wild Rice: The Caviar Of All Grains Dec 02, 2011

It is also native to ecologically similar regions located on the continent of Asia (Zizania latifolia). This evolutionarily ancient grain has been found in layers of the earth dating back some 12,000 years.

Frances Moore Lappé: Eco Mind Dec 01, 2011

Show notes

Today’s world is drastically changing. With the number of people losing jobs, losing their homes and losing faith in our leadership, many people seem to have given up hope. Perhaps is a matter of perspective. Could it very well be that our perspective is “while we often hear that seeing is believing, actually believing is seeing.” If we as human beings accept defeat as the reality nothing can or will change. However, that is not the case and there is hope. Throughout history, we can and have taken action. There are many people who are collectively working together to see what they feel is just become reality. It is not an easy battle but it is one that we can win. In the book, EcoMindChanging the Way We Think, to Create The World We Want, Frances Moore Lappé explores the way people as a society view the problems we are facing and offers solutions as far as how we can work together to make the necessary changes we need. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer, talks to the legendary environmentalist, possibilist and author, Frances Moore Lappé about her thought provoking book, EcoMindChanging the Way We Think, to Create The World We Want.
