Now, Every Storm is a Climate Change Storm
Oct. 6, 2016 2:04 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...Florida Governor Rick Scott has been busy warning millions of people for days now to evacuate their homes, with good reason.
But what he won't say, and he won't let any state employee say, is that the sheer power of this storm is directly related to climate change and the effects of a warming planet.
And to put it simply, now, every storm is a climate change storm.Wednesday 5 October '16 show notes

Oct. 4, 2016 1:22 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...Criminal justice reform is dead in Congress - and the War on Drugs lives on.
Even though Congress managed to pass a stopgap budget to keep the government running until December - Mitch McConnell last week made it clear that he won't be bringing criminal justice reform forward during the lame duck session of Congress.

Time To Save the World Now
Oct. 3, 2016 2:03 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...If you watched cable news at all this weekend, you probably heard a lot about Donald Trump's bad week and how it was a turning point in the presidential campaign.
