Featuring Peter Kerr, research biologist and Robb Davis, Mayor pro tem.

Finally, ethical personal transportation is a real, practical option.   What a liberating feeling to have your daily rituals decoupled from fossil fuel politics and practices!  But what is this life like and how is it different?   It may be easier and more enjoyable than you think.  Peter offers his experiences of having an electric car and Robb offers the how and why of living entirely car-free.

Chief Caleen Sisk, Winnemem Wintu Tribe.

The growing demand for water in Southern California is putting the Winnemem Wintu culture and spirituality at risk.   The recently proposed raising of Shasta Dam by 18 feet to address the water crisis is a bad idea.  Raising the dam will harm fish, wildlife and the religious rights of the tribe when water-saving measures by farmers could save more water and cost much less.   Listen to the story from the Wintu point of view.
