Episode Details

In his final episode as guest host, Joseph D. DeMare has to go solo for the whole hour as Rebecca is out sick. In the first part of the show, he talks about the ecological problems with Halloween candy, specifically palm oil. Then he reviews more environmentally friendly ways to heat your home than natural gas furnaces. Then we have an interview with Deborah Lee, Director of the Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab or GLERL talking about algal blooms and GLERL's 50th anniversary. Next there's some videos from the EPA describing Denver's electric school bus program and the Toxic Release Inventory. Environmental News includes a Cleveland company making furniture from old wind turbine blades, drought paralyzing the Panama Canal, and Britain's shrinking high speed rail ambitions.
