Includes the entirety of Annie Leonard's new video, "The Story of Broke," plus some reflections by K.D.
Teens: are they really all that bad?
Feb. 3, 2012, 12:27 p.m.
Are all members of our society regarded equally?
As much as weâd probably like to say yes, we know that various types of discrimination do still exist. We usually associate discrimination with certain ethnic groups. But what about age groups, including the elderly and adolescents?
Teenagers are often assumed to be naïve, self-centered, and prone to take risks. The media portrays them as a group involved with crime, drugs and alcohol. But are these fair representations? Or are they simply assumptions that are helping to perpetuate the misunderstandings we have about adolescents?
In this episode of the Health Justice Radio Collective, Alison spoke with Dr. Jean Clinton, a child psychiatrist with Hamilton Health Sciences and a long-term advocate for childrenâs health. She speaks about the dynamically developing adolescent brain, and why teenagers in particular need to be supported by our society as opposed to shunned.
Health Impacts of Shale Gas Exploitation
Feb. 3, 2012, 12:21 p.m.
Kathleen Nolan, MD provides clear and well thought out guidance on the health impacts of high volume hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) commonly referred to as "fracking". Dr. Nolan is a pediatrician and serves as director of the High Peaks office of Catskill Mountainkeeper. This organization takes the strong public health protective position of supporting a ban on shale gas exploitation in New York State.
Shale gas exploitation in the United States has led to the sickening of many people and animals. Scientific evidence continues to accumulate that would lead a reasonable person to oppose the use of this resource extraction technology.
We discuss the concept of a Health Impact Analysis. It does not appear likely that New York State government will produce such an analysis. Catskill Mountainkeeper and numerous other environmental organizations may take up the work of conducting a Health Impact Analysis so as to provide an excellent example for future activists.
In order to stop shale gas exploitation in New York State and the rest of the US people need to join together in public demonstrations of opposition to HVHF and advocate for prohibitions against this activity among their elected representatives in state and national government.

This half hour video was broadcast on TV Ontario (Canadian Public Television) in 2004, as the first of a 13-part series dealing with mythology and neuroscience. It is based on the book, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief.Theme: The rise of rationality and the scientific method posed a significant challenge to the religious worldview, but in its place rose ideological systems of true horror, led by resentful and arrogant tyrants such as Mao Tse-Tung, Stalin and Hitler. The demolition of traditional theories of morality thus opened the floodgates for pathological replacements of unforeseeable rigidity and cruelty.
