Capitalism Killing the Planet: Drilling for Oil in the Arctic, Global Warming, and a Welcome Warning from Scientists
Weekly Program
John Deans (Arctic Campaigner, Greenpeace); Dr. Michael Mann (Distinguished Professor of Meteorology at Penn State University and author of The Hockey Stick and the Climate Wars)
John Deans on the danger of drilling for oil in the Arctic and the need to stop it. A recent report from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management declared that there is a 75% chance of a large oil spill in the Arctic if oil companies drill there. It would be almost impossible to clean up. Michael Mann on a report from Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which contains a grim, strongly-worded assessment of dangers facing the planet, the life on land and sea, and the future of humanity.
