Marvelous energy

I listened to bits and pieces in various segments, and really liked what I heard. I am particularly struck by the energy and movement of the production. They use music judiciously and well. The hosts, reporters, and commentaries go between fun, relaxed, earnest and serious. They get at "Environment" from many directions. As a grownup, I want to hear what they have to say.
I personally would have been curious to hear from Van Jones, as I had never heard him speak, and his impact is impressive: As one commentator notes - 'He's famous for making the environmental movement more fashionable for more people'. Too bad circumstances rendered his interview outdated. However, I am sure the Alaska Teen Media piece is a very good substitute.
