urbana

Greenpeace are driving a (vegetable diesel-powered) van across the country, bringing an array of solar panels from town to town, and using them to power local events. It ties into their campaign to draw attention to global warming, gather local stories, and then bring them to Washington.

Last Thursday, 28 August, I spoke with Drew Thomas - a local Greenpeace staffer - about a concert in Urbana, IL. The 7 minute interview opens with Drew talking about what's happening in Urbana, and moves to talking about the broader campaign. Audio is safe for broadcast use.
