interviews journalist Jesse Freeston
Feb. 1, 2012, 12:09 p.m.
On June 28, 2009, Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was kidnapped by the military and left in his pajamas at an airport in Costa Rica. The military and police took control of the streets to repress the mass movement that demanded both Zelaya's return and the progressive changes he was pushing for in the country. Twenty months later and the military are still deployed, perhaps nowhere more visibly than the Aguan Valley. The region has become a key battleground between farmers with little or no land, known as campesinos, and wealthy landowners backed by military and police. The price of basic foodstuffs has doubled since the 2009 coup, and campesinos have ramped up a long-held tradition of occupying unused land or land in the hands of the country's richest people. A recent study found that there are roughly 300,000 Honduran families in need of land. Meanwhile, the majority of the land in Honduras's fertile Aguan region is in the hands of three men, all supporters of the coup, who are using Honduras's richest soil to produce palm oil for export.
Independent journalist Jesse Freeston from the Real News speaks with Sylvia about the occupy movement in Honduras. The post coup government its attacks on the teachers and growing insecurity as Honduras joins in the choir of the war on terror.

Walmart: Green or Greed? Part I
Jan. 31, 2012, 11:09 p.m.
Walmart. What does the name of the worldâs largest retailer evoke for you? Do you think of its reputation as a poor employer and its anti-union tactics? Do you lump it in your mind with other large corporations who worship profit at the expense of environmental and social justice? Or perhaps youâre among those who respect Walmartâs more recent initiatives to improve its environmental impact, cut back on energy use, and reduce packaging. Today on Sea Change Radio, we begin a two-part series in which we speak with two writers for whom the name Walmart evokes very different things.
This week, host Alex Wise talks with author, researcher and advocate, Stacy Mitchell who recently published a 6-part series for Grist on Walmartâs sustainability efforts. Mitchell believes that the companyâs purported efforts to improve its sustainability profile are mostly window dressing, a ploy to change the media narrative of Walmartâs poor track record without actually changing its overall negative global impact. Next week we will hear a contrasting opinion from reporter Marc Gunther whoâs written extensively on Walmart, as well. Gunther is more impressed by the companyâs sustainability efforts, believing that the perfect should not be the enemy of the good, and that when a giant like Walmart makes moves toward environmental responsibility it is worth taking notice. But first, our discussion with Stacy Mitchell.
