Plastic sushi anyone? Not likely on the menu at your favorite sushi spot but our first guest has seen it and has made it her life's work to stop plastic pollution in the ocean.
Anna Cummins, who along with her partner Dr.. Marcus Erickson, started "Five Gyres", is about to set sail for Gyre Number 5 to bring worldwide attention to the plight of marine life, and ultimately humans, posed by the plethora of plastic pollution. One of the stops will be Easter Island, perhaps ironic, notes Cummins?
Next, we'll speak with Michelle Chan, Director of Economic Policy at Friends of the Earth, about the shortsightedness of legislators about to cut spending on environmental initiatives, including provisions under the Clean Air and Water Acts!
