Steyer, COP25, and DAPL

Regardless of who you're supporting for president, check out my interview with Tom Steyer.

My second guest on this week's program is Thomas Linzey with the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund. More and more cities are passing local ordinances protecting their communities and natural resources against polluters. But what happened in Florida recently is the first time a political party has adopted a resolution protecting the "rights of nature."
