March 31st, 2009
Mountain top removal coal mining is stopped by the Obama Administration and more changes are on the way. Earthbeat host Mike Tidwell discusses mining with JW Randolph, the legislative associate for Appalachian Voices. We hear about the latest about congressional action on climate change with author Joe Romm of the blog Climate Progress.
And then – how modern dance is using climate change is create art that inspires change. We’ll hear from the artistic director of the DC modern dance ensemble CityDance, Paul Gordon Emerson.
Music from this edition of Earthbeat is from The Mountain – composed by Italian composer and scientist Domenico Vicinanza using audio interpretation of volcano activity.
