Customer Reviews
Well done and Informative
This podcast talks about the lastest happenings in the news of global warming and other environmental issues. I especially like the interviews. A little short for my taste, but still great and I will continue to listen to it.
Dr Heidi Cullen
Excellent interview with Dr. Cullen. Very timely and informative
Very Informative and Concerned About Our Home...
As soon as someone sees the word "treehugger" they jump to conclusions and call people liberals and hippies. However, they are quite to judge because they are too ignorant to give up a comfy lifestyle; that is the downfall of America - laziness. Thank God there are people who are not lazy and show what is really happening to the Earth because of our waste and how we can stop it. Bravo TreeHugger Radio, you deserve 10/5 stars.
