And the answer is that no single weather event proves or disproves the fundamental science of climate change, but extreme weather is what scientists expect from global warming.]]> http://susty.com/weather-climate-do-not-confuse-scientific-american-daily-show-colbert-report-video/feed/ 0 http://susty.com/stephen-colbert-eats-sustainable-chef-louisa-shafia-lunch-catering/ http://susty.com/stephen-colbert-eats-sustainable-chef-louisa-shafia-lunch-catering/#comments Fri, 18 Dec 2009 03:45:10 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=8710 sustainable chef and caterer Louisa Shafia provided lunch for the staff that day. Over at Lucid Food, Lousia describes how the scene went down with the quintessential writers room running commentary around the, farm fresh buffet spread. But when Colbert approaches her she get a wee bit star struck and events begin to blur.

Most interesting are the story he tells about a substitute teacher he had in grade school that changed his life -- I wonder if that person ever knew the effect he had on Redford -- as well as the disillusionment with a cliché turn of phrase that is miraculously at the core of Redford's life, work and environmental activism: It doesn't mater whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game. "Well that's a lie" Redford says. And paraphrasing, it is the powers that be, the Cheney's that want to win at all cost and that's precisely all that they care about.

The occasion was a recent screening of the film Sea Ghosts which uses the Beluga whales as the "canary in the coal mine" to conveying the environmental consequences that await we humans. Ironically Sea Ghosts was on the same night that the Star Trek movie rebooted its space opera franchise, so we asked Fabien to comment on the disproportionate amount of research dollars being apportioned to space exploration over Earth's oceans. He also touches on some basic concepts for how our everyday actions wind up contributing to the pollution of our oceans and how that comes back to haunt us on our dinner plates. ]]> http://susty.com/fabien-cousteau-ocean-exploration-industry-pollution-toxic-chemicals-beluga-whale-consumer-pbs-video/feed/ 4 http://susty.com/conservation-international-screening-movie-home-yann-arthus-bertrand-laura-bowling-ci-nyc-video/ http://susty.com/conservation-international-screening-movie-home-yann-arthus-bertrand-laura-bowling-ci-nyc-video/#comments Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:56:18 +0000 by George Spyros, New York City, USA http://susty.com/?p=6582 Earth From Above) epic film Home held today at the Florence Gould Theater in mid-town Manhattan, we chatted with Conservation International's Head of Marketing and Public Relations Laura Bowling.]]> http://susty.com/conservation-international-screening-movie-home-yann-arthus-bertrand-laura-bowling-ci-nyc-video/feed/ 0
