Full Program	LISTEN TO FULL PROGRAM
Part 1	We begin with an analysis of the growing number and frequency of weather anomalies, hurricanes followed by a deadly series of wildfires engulfing Texas. Rick Piltz, the Director of Climate Science Watch joins us to assess the causes behind what appears to be a change in climate, a change that the governor of Texas, who interrupted his presidential campaign to deal with the fires, claims is not happening.
Part 2	Then, we look into the tar sands oil pipeline controversy from a Canadian perspective with Cleo Paskal who is a fellow at the Royal Institute of International Affairs and a consultant to the U.S. Department of Energy, NATO and the OSCE. She is the author of “Global Warring; How Environmental, Economic and Political Crises Will Redraw the World Map”.
Part 3	Then, finally we hear from the Reverend Billy, an anti-corporate activist who takes on the role of a revivalist minister with his Church of Earth-al-ujah to preach against consumerism and militarism. We talk about what he has planned in New York for this coming weekend’s tenth anniversary remembrance of 9/11.
