The Monday, February 10, Climate Justice Forum radio program hosted by WIRT features Al Smith of Michigan Coalition Against Tar Sands (MI CATS) and Chris Wahmhoff of Occupy Kalamazoo. Al is the husband of Vicci Hamlin, who with Barb Carter and Lisa Leggio locked-down to construction equipment last summer, to protest expansion of the Enbridge pipeline that leaked the largest, non-marine, (tar sands) oil spill in U.S. history into the still unremediated Kalamazoo River. Likewise, Chris skateboarded deep into the same pipeline in June, to stall its development. All four are facing charges, some felonies with years in prison, and/or are being unjustly held in a Michigan jail. Broadcast on progressive, volunteer, community station KRFP Radio Free Moscow every Monday between 7:30 and 9:30 pm PST, live at 90.3 FM and online, the show covers continent-wide dirty energy developments and climate activism news, thanks to the generous, anonymous listener who adopted program host Helen Yost as his KRFP DJ.
