The Post Enviro Show Post #2
OK, last evening’s show went well, no? Jonathan Bates gave all of us a good sense of what folks at Nuestras Raices are working on down in Holyoke. Time for a field trip!
Here’s that info from The Bus Stop Billboard we promised:
FLYER AT: http://a244.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/81/l_2ab548c3a3eb3bd5191ce5f967c84093.jpg
WHAT: Protest at homes of top financial supporters of Huntingdon Life
Sciences
WHEN: Saturday, May 31st, 2:00PM
WHERE: Wheeler’s Frozen Desserts, 334B Massachusetts Ave — near the
Symphony T Stop on the Green Line.
WHY: Huntingdon Life Sciences kills 500 animals every day, 180,000 animals
every year. Without the continued support of a small handful of
companies, Huntingdon will be forced to close their doors for good.
Huntingdon is already $100 million in debt, with no bank, no insurance
company, not even a sign outside the company. Learn more at http://www.shac.net/HLS/index.html.
PLEASE FORWARD WIDELY! [in case the federales missed it! kidding!!]
The next Enviro Show is a mixed bag: Heidi Ricci from Mass Audubon calls in with the buzz on mosquito control and UMass Prof. George Huber joins us to talk about alternative gasoline made from
forestry & agricultural waste. Tell me we won’t pay $4 a gallon for THAT!
That’s it. Now remember: always listen to your Mother!!
