My recent interview on mountaintop removal is now available on the "Electric Politics" podcast.  

You can listen to it here.  Below is the description of the show:

From Heaven To Hell

Appalachian mountainsIn a horrific sacrifice to darkness, the money men of Washington continue to sanction mountaintop removal for coal mining in Appalachia. This abomination must stop! It's Mr. Obama's sacrifice now, his irreversible legacy, an unmistakable mark of his true nature. Will he face down corporate coal, or will he shirk his responsibility? To get at the issue of mountaintop removal - including its implicit moral imperatives - I turned to Rob Perks, of the Natural Resources Defense Council. It was very kind of Rob to take the time and thanks to him I feel encouraged that the battle can be won. Total run time an hour and six minutes. Become involved!
