EcoRadio KC
EcoRadio KC is a magazine show, including live segments, prerecorded stories, and interviews. The weekly explores our interdependence with the rest of the world, showing the connections between the ways we choose to live and the health of the whole community of life.
We bring you vital information underserved or ignored by mainstream media. We are supported by listeners who share our mission.
On May 27th, host Richard Mabion will speak with Zack Pistora, State Lobbyist for the Kansas Sierra Club.
The Gallup Poll tracked Americans’ views about the environment in March, 2024. Results showed
– Close to two-thirds of Americans are concerned about climate change and attribute increases in the Earth’s temperature over the past century to pollution from human activities.
– The majority of Americans know 2023 was the world’s warmest year on record.
– The environment ranks low among Americans’ national concerns. The economy, healthcare, and federal spending were more troubling.
– Pollution of drinking water ranks as Americans’ top environmental concern.
– Biden gets his highest approval scores on environmental policy.
– Americans believe the government is doing too little to protect the environment.
– Issues of economic recovery shifts American priorities away from environmental concerns. Attitudes on this question seem especially responsive to changes in the unemployment rate – as unemployment increases, the percentage of Americans who prioritize the economy tends to rise.
Zack Pistora will tell us Kansas is mainstream, but he will also tell us the most important environmental legislation on the table of our government.
EcoRadio KC is glad to encourage awareness and protection of our world. Our goal is to ensure our listeners are aware of how we can create a sustainable present for a sustainable future! It will take us all to make the world safe for habitation for millennia to come.
This will be a great radio hour!
