Written by Betsy Rosenberg on . Posted in 2011, Ashley Miller.

Amiller-headshot I am devoting several programs to the topic of Preparing For Peak Oil in the wake of hearing two presentations on the topic that shocked even this battle-weary environmental journalist. First up on The Green Front is Asher Miller, Executive Director of The Post Carbon Institute. We'll talk about what to expect now that the national debt has far exceeded GDP and our demand for oil is quickly outpacing our ability to sustain consumption. Buckle up, this show – and subject matter – are not for the weak of heart nor meek of mind!

Joseph Romm about blizzasters

6a00d8341bfbc053ef011279650e3028a4-800wi Joseph Romm is a senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress. His blog is Climate Progress. As yet another record-breaking 'blizzaster' grips the east coast AND beyond, Joe and I wonder aloud what it will take to get America to notice Ma Nature is trying to tell us something – it's later than we think!
The winds are howling, snow piling up, travel at a standstill and Australia is also in the midst of a record setting category 5 storm with winds up 200 mph. Blizzards, tornados and floods, oh my! What's a concerned citizen to do? Start a Green Tea Party I say…

Optimum Health Institute: Kirsten Schulz

Written by Betsy Rosenberg on . Posted in 2011, Kirsten Schulz, Optimum Health Institute.

Schulz headshot This week The Green Front comes to you from San Diego where I am attending a week long retreat at the Optimum Health Institute.
The program is a raw food/juice cleanse detox with daily colonics. The curriculum is based on the transformative health benefits of eating a plant-based diet and incorporating mental and emotional detoxification methods.
We'll meet two OHI "missionaries" who have seemingly  healed themselves of Stage 4 cancer. Kirsten Schulz is a 42 year-old psychologist whose doctors said chemo was her only chance of living. But she came here instead.
Her breast tumor had spread to other organs but after several months on this program it has gone back into her breast only and on the way out of her body, Kirsten is convinced.
