    A Coming Home Enviro Show

    A Coming Home Enviro Show Greetings Earthlings. We follow-up our Earth Days activities with an Earth-based story that warms the heart and stirs the soul. Rob Edward, president of the Rocky Mountain Wolf Action Fund joins us to talk about the reintroduction of wolves to Colorado. Some humans wiped them out, other humans brought them back. How's that going? Stay tuned. But now it's time for........Revenge of the Critters! More on the Elephants' Revenge. Our Enviro Show Quote of the Week is in keeping with our interview: We reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes. I realized then, and have known ever since, that there was something new to me in those eyes something known only to her and to the mountain. I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters paradise. But after seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain agreed with such a view. - Aldo Leopold The Enviro Show on WXOJ-LP (103.3 fm) and streaming at www.ValleyFreeRadio.org from Florence, MA every other Tuesday, 6:00 to 7:00pm.

  • A Good Earth Scouts Enviro Show

    A Good Earth Scouts Enviro Show

    Greetings Earthlings. Happy Earth Week! Back in the day, both Girl & Boy Scouts had the motto "Be Prepared" but today the Girl Scouts have apparently replaced that motto with The Girl Scout Law which includes "use resources wisely" & "make the world a better place". Our guests on the show this week have done that and way more, they saved a forest with mature & old-growth trees! Sounds like they were more than prepared, yes? Us elders would love to do that here in Massachusetts but our time is running short (can you hear us @MassDCR @MassGovernor & @MassEEA ? ) No? Better think twice, the scouts are watching! How about all those #ClimateGoals ?? More on that later. As always we will bring you along to meet this week's Fool-on-the-Hill and to see Those Whose Brains Were Small, as well as our constant reminder that "It's the Climate Crisis, Stupid!" but first it's time for......Revenge of the Critters! The Enviro Show on WXOJ-LP (103.3 fm) and streaming at www.ValleyFreeRadio.org from Florence, MA every other Tuesday, 6:00 to 7:00pm. Or anytime at: https://rss.com/podcasts/enviroshow/rebroadcast .

  • Another Green Mtn. National Forest Enviro Show

    Another Green Mtn. National Forest Enviro Show

    Greetings Earthlings. With April Fools in mind we, once again, bring news of the National Forest Service's (NFS) duplicity with regard to our public lands, especially their ill-conceived plans to log tens of thousands of acres in the Green Mountain National Forest just over the Massachusetts border in Vermont. Zack Porter, Executive Director of Standing Trees returns to the show for an update. As always, we will also introduce you to this week's Fool-on-the-Hill and Those Whose Brains are Small, as well as some Abidin' with Biden and yet another reminder that "It's the Climate Crisis, Stupid!".

  • A "Timber Targets" Enviro Show

    A "Timber Targets" Enviro Show

    Greetings Earthlings & Happy Spring Equinox which takes place between March 19-22 in the Northern Hemisphere. Ostara will not be pleased that the U.S. Forest Service's ‘timber target’ decisions (their words not ours) is putting the climate at risk, undermining Biden's critical climate goals, and violating federal law. Surprise! That according to the Southern Environmental Law Center (and why would we doubt it given USFS' sorry history). Patrick Hunter, Managing Attorney at the Southern Environmental Law Center joins us to talk about SELC's new, first-of-its-kind lawsuit. If you'd like to comment on the proposed logging in the Green Mountain National Forest just over the MA border go HERE. As always, we will also bring you this week's Fool-on-the-Hill and "Those Whose Brains Were Small.." as well as The Enviro Show Echo Chamber and more, but first it's time for.......Revenge of the Critters!

    Another Beware the Ides of March Enviro Show

    Greetings Earthlings. Once again we are coming up to that time of year when tyrants everywhere need to watch their backs because of their sins. We can think of more than a few such sins to attribute to His Malignancy The Mad King but what about those who trash the planet for fun & profit? Meg Sheehan & Katherine Harrelson of Community Land & Water  returns to the show for the latest from the Sand Wars, the rape of The Southeastern Massachusetts Pine Barrens and the threats to the environment by the “Cranberry Cosa Nostra.”  As always, we will also bring you along to meet this week's Fool-on-the-Hill and Those Whose Brains Were Small, and more but first it's time for......Revenge of the Critters!
