Hour 1
Earthgauge
News, views and commentary on environmental issues here in Ottawa, across Canada and around the world.
We see the environment in broad terms so, yes, we talk about climate change, conservation, pollution, biodiversity, sustainability and so on but we also discuss economics, science, ethics, human development, poverty and more. We also bring you stories of individuals and organizations that are not waiting for political or corporate leaders to implement the kind of changes that are needed. Many incredibly dedicated and inspiring individuals are forging ahead with innovative solutions, changing their lives, building a better world and havin’ a damn good time doing it. We’ll take a look at local, national and international issues - from global environmental agreements to some of the exciting research happening right here on campus at Carleton.
All shows are podcast on our blog www.earthgauge.ca. We welcome your feedback, so e-mail us at earthgaugeradio@gmail.com with your suggestions, comments, ideas or if you want to get involved with the show.

About me:
I host the second half of the Thursday Morning Special Blend on CKCU - cutting edge music, current events, community and arts happenings, news and more.
I also write for North by East West (see feed below), a blog dedicated to Canadian Music, with perspectives from every corner of the country. Read it often - it's a fantastic source of information about our great musicians.
"Got no social graces, Never know my place, One thing I am sure of, You can't judge a man by his race, Birth don't come easy, Freedom doesn't come cheap, Rules and worlds get swept away, While you waste your time in sleep"
