Water Features are tonight's Earthworms Special Edition presentations from The Bioneers Radio Series (www.bioneers.org). "Mother Ocean: Every Breath We Take" is a detailed portrait of our planet's largest ecosystems, on which our lives truly do depend! We hear Dr. Sylvia Earle (you've seen her on MANY 2010 Oil Disaster reports), "Her Deepness" is Explorer-in-Residence for National Geographic Society and Chief Scientist for NOAA; and Wallace Jay Nichols, California Academy of Sciences ocean biologist. "Blue Gold: Who Owns the Rain?" features Canadian Maude Barlow - founder of the Blue Planet Project, working to stop commodification of WORLD water supplies - and Nancy Price of "Defending Water for Life Campaign." Privatization of world water supplies is a juggernaut that threatens to change the "Human Right to Clean Water" to a corporate-friendly process of "meeting needs," primarily the profit-making needs of water-owning conglomerates. Knowing where YOUR water comes from, and speaking up for YOUR water quality and water access is the first step to keeping water FREELY available for living beings world-wide, including human beings, including YOU.
Last year Linda Schuch opened the Island Seafood Market in St. Petersburg Florida. Business was steadily growing, until an oil rig 800 miles away, exploded waves of panic through her community - and prompted Linda to, as she says, "get off the sidelines and work to advance clean energy." Linda and other Gulf residents will tell their stories to help Repower America and Clean Energy Works in Missouri promote renewable options, in a FREE presentation on Wednesday July 14, noon-1 p.m. at the Schlafly Branch Library, 225 N. Euclid in St. Louis Central West End, Tonight she talks with "Earthworms" host Jean Ponzi about her and her community's reactions to the oil disaster - and about clean energy potentials. Jean presents a Summer Mosquito Safety Update, backed up by Joni Mitchell, and welcomes guest announcer Kate Ponzi. Thanks for listening to "Earthworms!"
