Topic: Yesterday coporations denied the existence of climate change, today they say they can fix it.  What is their role?  An interview with Orin Langelle of the Global Justice Ecology Project’s “New Voices on Climate Change” Iniative.  We speak with him by phone from Paraguay where he is attending meetings following the recent World Social Forum in Brazil.  And we talk with Dylan Voorhees, Clean Energy and Global Warming Project Director of the Natural Resources Council of Maine.  That group, along with more than 100 Maine-based businesses, presented a letter to Maine’s Congressional Delegation this week, urging them to lead the fight to stop climate change.
