Hi folks,
We return to our regularly scheduled Relocalizing Vermont programming this week. The program returns to its roots of food, energy, and the local economy at the end of the age of oil by eavesdropping in on some conversations around the theme of “After fossil fuel” that were held earlier this year at Oberlin College in Ohio. In the bits we’ll hear in this week’s show, the speakers consider whether “green capitalism” is an oxymoron or a possibility. Speakers in this section include Richard Heinberg, Hunter Lovins, and ecological economist Robert Constanza.

9:00 - 10:00 am
Selections from the After Fossil Fuels conference.

10:00 - 10:30 am
Resilience Thoughts, a locally told Extempo story, plus Carolyn Shapiro on the work to re-create a historic bakery in Barre at the Old Labor Hall, and the fundraiser dance they’re holding this Saturday.

Please tune in! Relocalizing Vermont runs Thursdays, 9:00 - 10:30 am Eastern, on WGDR Plainfield 91.1 FM / WGDH Hardwick 91.7 FM / streaming at wgdr.org
