Tomorrow on Earthgauge Radio: U.S. Green Party leader Jill Stein and the Ottawa Centre EcoDistrict

November 14, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

On Earthgauge Radio this week, we will have the pleasure of hearing from the Green Party candidate for president of the United States, Dr. Jill Stein. Dr. Stein of course recently wrapped up her presidential campaign so we will hear from her about how the campaign went, the Green New Deal, her two arrests while on the hustings, her thoughts on the election’s outcome and how she sees the next four years unfolding. Dr. Stein will join us for an Earthgauge exclusive, live interview at 7:35 AM.

Also on the program tomorrow, I’ll be speaking with James McNeil who leads the Ottawa Green Real Estate Practice group and is the self-described “catalyst” of the Ottawa Centre Eco-District. We’ll find out all about this new, exciting initiative in Ottawa Centre: how it started, what they hope to achieve and why “eco-districts” seem to be springing up all over North America and beyond. That’s at 7:10 AM.

Finally, given that this past Monday was Remembrance Day, it seems like an appropriate time to remember the environmental devastation that war continues to cause all around the world. We’ll hear a short clip at 7:50 AM or so from Friends of the Earth called ‘War and the Environment’.

Tune in for a great show tomorrow! Earthgauge Radio airs Thursday mornings from 7-8 AM on CKCU 93.1 in Ottawa. News and interviews on environmental stories from across Canada and around the world. Podcasts on iTunes and earthgauge.ca. Stream live on www.ckcufm.com.

    Hello Mark:

    We are organizing a ‘Media Democracy Conference’ for this Friday, Saturday and Sunday at Ottawa U. The people who were to do the ‘environmental and health issues in the media panel’ canceled at the last minute. The Panel is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 17th from 2:45 to 3:45 pm. I think it would be a shame if we don’t discuss this. Have invited Paul Beckwith, Graham Saul and Shiv Shopra and am waiting for replies. Please get back to me before 2 pm if you can. I can’t read my home emails at work so will give you my work coordinates. The email is: ken.billings at hrsdc-rhdcc dot gc dot ca and the phone is 819-994-9899. Thanks, Kensky (ActCity Ottawa, Hungry for Climate Justice, Media Democracy Coop).
