Today on Earthbeat we'll investigate the links between climate change, offshore oil drilling -- and hurricanes in the Gulf Coast. Joining host Mike Tidwell in our studios is Joe Romm from the Center for American Progress and Greg Jenkins, the head of Howard University's Department of Physics & Astronomy.

On the telephone from Jackson, Louisiana - 30 miles north of Baton Rouge is Mark Davis, the director of the Tulane University Institute on water resources law and policy. Davis has evacuated, with his family, to Jackson from New Orleans.

Speaking about the excellent success of the Xcel power company in Colorado is Keith Hay of Environment Colorado.
