The Endgame Enviro Show, Tues. 3/2, 6:30pm


Greetings Earthlings. In keeping with our notoriety for gobs of gloom & doom here on The Enviro Show we get a call from Derrick Jensen, writer, activist, alarm-sounder and all around tree-hugging dirt-worshiper (hey! not unlike yours trulys!). We’ll be talking about some of his latest tomes like “What We Leave Behind” & “Endgame”. What? Not happy-clappy enough? Also, we delve into the latest enviro news in the old Echo Chamber, as well as in our E-Valley-uation segment; checkout The Enviro Show Quote of the Week; and visit the Bus Stop Billboard, but first it’s time for….Revenge of the Critters! You guessed it: captive Killer Whale lives up to its’ name. So why is it a captive again?

In our E-Valley-uation segment the BIG news is Vermont’s Senate voting not to extend VT Yankee’s funky old nuke an operating license beyond 2012. Don’t think for one minute that old leaky nuke doesn’t concern you here in the Valley. You are downwind and downstream and speaking of down: SHUT IT DOWN!

The Dept. of Consternation & Reprobation Enviro Show; 2/16, 6:30pm


Greetings Earthlings. Do you trust the Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation (DCR) to care for your forests? What do you think of clear-cuts in the Quabbin? Licensed forester, Dave Gafney calls in to bring us up to date on the state of forestry in the Commonwealth. We’ll have a look at their present DCR “Vision” thing while we’re at it. Like on near every show, we’ll give you some of the latest news in our Echo Chamber, have a look at local enviro situations in our E-Valley-uation segment, give you The Enviro Show Quote of the Week and checkout the Bus Stop Billboard, but first it’s time for….Revenge of the Critters! Fox…….Run!

In The Enviro Show Echo chamber we visit the ever entertaining state of Texas and their resistance to…..clean air! And speaking of clean air, wouldn’t it be excellent to have municipal utilities that are more accountable to the community for air quality? Sign the petition here. Did you hear about our new ally in the struggle against the climate crisis? It’s Osama!…….or maybe the Ghost of Osama, depending on who you want to believe on that account.
