ECOSHOCK —As Darkness Flourishes
Movie “The Big Fix” digs into BP Gulf spill cover-up. Interview w. Director Josh Tickell. From India, S. Dutta reveals coal megaprojects & protests. Tar Sands speech clip from top scientist Dr. David Schindel. Plus GMO song.
Obama didn’t actually swim in the Gulf of Mexico (really in protected St. Andrews Bay), and the cleanup crews are still on the beaches even now. Don’t “come on down” no matter what the millions of dollars spent by BP say.
Director of movie “The Big Fix” (to be released this June, standing ovation at Cannes) – Josh Tickell explains the ongoing spill disaster and the real price paid by those who live there.
While coal plant building in China gets the headlines, the government of India and the Tata corporation are building some of the world’s largest coal plants. Locals are protesting (and we compare to Occupy movement in the U.S.)
From India, S. Dutta tells us what the mainstream press is neglecting. My thanks to Sierra Club India for hooking us up.
“The GM Song” by Superweed is smart, true and good music for activism and those concerned about the safety of their food from genetically modified experiments with the whole population.
We close with the wrap up of a powerful speech by respected Canadian scientist Dr. David Schindler. He and other scientists studied what the big oil companies and the complicit Canadian government don’t want to look at. Poisoned fish, fake restoration, and a huge cleanup bill for future generations. Visit Radio Ecoshock here.
Capitalism: A Love Story. On the 20-year anniversary of his groundbreaking masterpiece "Roger & Me," Michael Moore's "Capitalism: A Love Story" comes home to the issue he's been examining throughout his career: the disastrous impact of corporate dominance on the everyday lives of Americans. But this time the culprit is much bigger than General Motors, and the crime scene is far wider than Flint, Michigan.
