Sustainable Ray D Ohhh

I want to thank Sara Wasserman, who is more than just a friend to the proGram, for once again bringing us information on what’s going on. We chatted this time about the show lined up honoring Mr. Willie Nelson for his work with using energy responsibly and efficiently. On July 22nd the Sustainable Biodiesel Alliance is teaming up with the Amazon Watch for a ‘first of it’s kind’ fundraiser event at the beautiful Bently Reserve building in Downtown San Francisco. In the past biofuels, including biodiesel have been connected to deforestation and rain forest endangerment through massive scale palm oil and soy production. This event will help educate the public on how supporting local, sustainable biodiesel production and using local renewable resources instead of feedstocks like international soy and palm can protect our planet’s precious rain forests.

Musical Omnivores

the second part to the Saturday morning marathonG, and the “normal” three hour timeslot for greenarrowradio really set the ears in motion for me. I was thrilled to have a live on air chat with Kal from Rubblebucket, as they’ll be in Madison on the 30th. We talked new album “Omega La La”, what a live stage show would do to the unexpected and also what music is stuck inside the band’s bucket. The music went from coast to coast and I could start to smell the lotion being rubbed on certain songs as the heat turned up….a show built and planted for the musical omnivore in all of us….Check it:
