Customer Reviews
Eco-Radio Journalism The Right Way
True, there are a lot of environmental radio shows and podcasts out there today but only one, NPR's Living On Earth, gets it right. Really right. The show holds itself to the highest journalistic standards and isn't shy about treating the environment as legitimate news reporting. Listen up, folks, this show was ahead of its time 15 years ago when it debuted now the rest of us are playing catch up! Try it; you'll like it...
Superb environmental journalism from NPR!
One of the most important radio program's out there and probably one of the least appreciated! Given the state of the environment today and all the major issues surrounding it this show should be on everyone's radar. Give it a listen if you don't already and it *will* win you over. Wonderful stuff!
