Make Mine A Nice Warm Green Latte


No, we don't mean St. Paddy's Day.

Corporate Watchdog Radio aired an interesting report yesterday--it's all about the new "green networking" movement--groups of people who get together to discuss and take action on environmental and sustainability issues. From corporatewatchdogradio.org:
Every month all over the globe, people interested in the environment and sustainability get together for "Green Drinks" to schmooze and network. Today on CWR, hosts Bill Baue and Francesca Rheannon go to their local Green Drinks gathering at the Northampton Brewery in Northampton, Massachusetts. There, they talk with John Meyercak of the Center for Ecological Technology, based in Northampton, about CET projects like ReStore, which sells second-hand building materials. Then Chris Landry of the Sustainability Institute in Hartland, Vermont talks about balancing the need to support small farmers in developing nations with fair trade while also fostering living local economies in developed nations. We also hear about the Sustainability Institute's "Climate Bathtub".
Corporate Watchdog Radio is free for any radio station to air. Do you think that WASU-FM might be interested in airing it? Just thinkin', ya know--because ASU seems to be slightly involved in that whole sustainability thingy. Can you say built-in listener base? Sure you can.

Listen to the program here.
P.S. The picture above shows the hosts of Corporate Watchdog Radio.

Woof! Woof! Grrrrr! I hope these guys, along with the Rainforest Action Network, chase a few corporations right up a tree...and then help them understand the importance of not cutting them all down. Grrrrr!
