Meet The Underground Economy

Nov. 19, 2014, 11:41 a.m.
The underground economy is where drug wars and police lockdowns meet urban America. America’s underground economy includes an estimated $2 trillion in off-the-books work and trade. Much of it is in tough neighborhoods where the formal economy is very thin and the hand of the law is very heavy. Alice Goffman finds an urban economy and culture so shadowed by police and incarceration that it lives “on the run.” Alice Goffman spent six years living in Philadelphia, and her close observations and often harrowing stories reveal the pernicious effects of drug wars and police lockdowns. "A dramatic record of how race is still a key predictor of whether or not some young Americans will have a chance at a 'pursuit of happiness.'" ~ Los Angeles Review of Books Alice Goffman, an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin – Madison talks to Tom Ashbrook. Alice is the author of “On The Run: Fugitive Life In An American City”.

Janie Rezner with Dr. Helen Caldicott, anti-nuclear advocate

Nov. 18, 2014, 11:20 p.m.
Dr. Helen Caldicott, Physician, author, and dedicated international anti-nuclear advocate. Author of "If you Love this Planet: A plan to save the Earth; "The New Nuclear Danger" and others, including her newest, Crisis without End" - represents an unprecedented look into the profound aftereffects of Fukushima. Helen writes, "Until the climate movement embraces a nuclear free future it will be impossible to win the race again time we are currently engaged in. Something large climate action groups should take note of as after decades of working toward abolition the US Presidents signs a 3 trillion dollar deal for new nuclear weapons under the guise of "refurbishment." The future can be saved by a decisive lockdown on toxic energy generations of all kinds and by cutting the pursestrings to the funding of endless wars.

What the Lobster Knew: Biomimicry + Concrete

Nov. 18, 2014, 5:34 p.m.
Did you know that the production of cement is responsible for 5% of the carbon dioxide emissions on the planet? Our guest today on Sea Change Radio is geologist, biomineralization expert, and entrepreneur, Brent Constantz. His start-up company, Blue Planet Ltd., hopes to use biomimicry to transform carbon dioxide to a calcium carbonate base that can be used to build, pave and even roof. Not only would this innovative process reduce the use of fossil-fuels involved in the production of conventional cement and concrete, according to Constantz the process is so scalable it could fundamentally transform how we approach coal emissions. Mineralization that mimics the mastery of a lobster shedding and growing a new shell is at the heart of this technology which has the dual utility of carbon sequestration and building material as sustainable as it is durable. Blue Planet concrete is not the first innovation to be inspired by nature, but it may be the first to apply the biochemistry of sea creatures like lobsters and corals to carbon capture.

Helen Caldicott with Stephen Cohen (TWO of TWO) The Ukraine Crisis, Is Nuclear Conflict Likely?

Nov. 17, 2014, 4:42 p.m.
On October 10, 2014, Stephen Cohen, the eminent scholar of Russian Studies from Princeton, gave an extensive interview to Sophie Shevardnadze on RT. (Formerly called Russia Today, this is the Russian cable and satellite TV channel that is aimed at an international audience). This program begins with clips from that interview. Stephen Cohen says we are in a new Cold War with the added danger of a nuclear confrontation. Cohen gives an erudite critique of the current sanctions and the US led NATO expansion Eastward that has destabilized Europe. In the second part of this program we return to Helen Caldicott's appearance at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, that was covered in Part ONE of this program. Following her talk on The Ukraine Crisis, Is Nuclear Conflict Likely? she answered questions from the Press. As you will hear in this segment some of the problems with media coverage and the reasons for the news black-out on this topic are due to the lack of information or bias even among journalists. While living in the US, Helen Caldicott brought Physicians for Social Responsibility out of a long dormancy. The umbrella organization, International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, won the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize. Her most recent book is Crisis Without End an anthology about the current and future danger of Fukushima.

An Apology to General Proctor

Nov. 17, 2014, 9:14 a.m.
The Cult of Brock was established in Canada by the Tories in order to build the idea of a British identity. Part of this historical revisionism involved the demonization of General Proctor. Phil explains how Canadian history suppresses the story of how Proctor tried to maintain the Crown's alliance with local First Nations peoples. He was retroactively pilloried by his own masters for following the spirit of these orders.
