Coming up Thursday on Central Vermont Community Radio - a new book on progressive women, and an overview of what new energy-related possibilities the legislature has created, and what remains to be done.

9:00 - 10:00 am
Vermont environmental groups this week are celebrating more than $200 million of investment in the new state budget, what they call "unprecedented investments in climate action and resilience and setting the stage to help Vermonters reduce their energy costs, their reliance on expensive and polluting fossil fuels, and much more." But there are still huge gaps between the state's commitments to reduce carbon emissions and what is funded. We'll hear about what the new expenditures will get us and what is missing from Johanna Miller, who serves as Energy and Climate Program Director at the Vermont Council on Natural Resources.

"It is women like us, sitting around tables across the country, who will make the revolution." Local authors Sue Morris and Elizabeth Conard set out to tell stories of many of those women in their new book, simply titled Progressive Women. The authors will tell us some of the more interesting lessons from the 26 women around the US whose stories are in the book, plus how they see the world differently after interviewing dozens of progressive women.
