The Dump on the Aquifer Enviro Show

Greetings Earthlings. It’s nest-fouling watch once again on the Enviro Show. Time to have a longer conversation about the proposed expansion of the Northampton dump over the Barnes Aquifer. We’ll have Linda Hiesiger and Mike Fedora of Citizens United for a Healthy Future in the studio to talk about the issues. As always, we’ll take a healthy piece out of the Bush regime ; check-in on The Enviro Show Echo Chamber; hear the Quote of the Week and some tunes, but first it’s time for Revenge of the Critters!
Criket Attack!

The Post Enviro Show Post #6

Where are posts from other VFR programmers?? This is Valley Free Radio’s blog, not The Enviro Show blog!
Whatever!!

It was a dark and stormy night when Glen bailed out mid-show leaving D.O. lashed to the helm for his very first solo. Very scary and not without a slip-up or two. It won’t happen again.

The Sick Planet Enviro Show; 8/5; 6:30pm

Greetings Earthlings. As you’ve probably guessed by now, it’s a sick planet. From the nefarious deeds of Darth Cheney, the boy emperor, and Repugnican presidential candidate, John McSame, to all their corporado buddies. Big Oil is acting out! Big Pharma is getting bold. And, the senator (and indicted felon and Big Oil lackey) from way up in Alaska, Ted Stevens is whining about the recent indictment against him. We’ll be taking a look at these usual suspects and their planet trashing and we’ll hearing from Stan Cox, author of “Sick Planet”. The website says: “Sick Planet tells nine stories in which the global capitalist economy turns the well-intentioned efforts of humanity inside-out. By the tenth chapter, it will be clear that neither organic chicken soup nor full medical coverage can cure what ails this planet.” Of course, we’ll have some news and views and maybe The Enviro Show Quote of the Week, but first it’s time for….Revenge of the Critters! Python attacks pet store owner!
