Talk Radio Appearance – KCUR

Thanks to Steve Kraske for having me on Up to Date on KCUR (Kansas City public radio) today. If you missed it, you can listen to the mp3. In the first half-hour, Steve talks with Sharon Begley from Newsweek about her article “Why We’re So Clueless About Being Green.” In the latter half, I chat with Steve and answer listeners’ questions.

Following are some green living resources which listeners and others may find useful:

• Fuel Economy lets you compare the mileage of new and used cars (U.S. Department of Energy).

• Hybrid Center Scorecard scores hybrid vehicles for their value and environmental benefit (Union of Concerned Scientists).

• Energy Star lets you find energy-efficient appliances (U.S. Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Agency).

• Eat Local provides a state-by-state guide to what produce is in season each month and links you to farmer’s markets in your area (Natural Resources Defense Council).

• Seafood Watch offers wallet guides by region to help you make good seafood choices that won’t deplete the oceans of fish (Monterey Bay Aquarium).

• Skin Deep is a safety guide to cosmetics and personal care products that helps you avoid toxic chemicals (Environmental Working Group).
