The Earth Day Ethos Over the Years
This year, Earth Day turns 50. And from humble beginnings Earth Day has grown into the world's largest secular holiday, celebrated around the world each year by more than a billion people. Activists, scientists, poets and pastors share their reflections for this special Earth Day, and Host and Executive Producer Steve Curwood reminisces on 30 years of Living on Earth.
Also, Vermont Law School Professor Pat Parenteau reflects on the evolution of environmental law over the past 50 years, and what's ahead.
That's this week on Living on Earth from PRX.
