Solartopia Green Power & Wellness Hour - 8.8.24

LETS GET MONEY OUT OF POLITICS; LET’S GET SOLAR ON OUR ROOFTOPS!! GREEP zoom #186 opens with the brilliant, beautiful poetry of our great Laureate MIMI GERMAN. We then dive deep into the nightmare of money in politics with GREG COLERIDGE of Move to Amend. RAY MCCLENDON of Communities United for Justice gives us the full report for embattled, disenfranchised Georgia. We take a deep dive into the dark world of the Electoral College and the possibility that the 2024 election could hinge on MAGA decertifying enough states to swing the presidency. WENDI LEDERMAN gives us the latest report from Ron Desantis’s Florida. PAUL NEWMAN, MIKE HERSH, MYLA RESON & LYNN FEINERMAN give us great insights into saving our democracy. Chair SUSAN YOUNG of the Pacifica Radio National Board gives us the call to vote in the on-going Pacifica election. DR. RUTH STRAUSS updates us on Pacifica and the protection of our national election. TATANKA BRICCA then introduces the great DENNY ZANE, former mayor of Santa Monica, who explains the Earth-moving referendum process in Los Angeles. Denny is joined by the great LINDA SEELEY of the Mothers for Peace of San Luis Obispo, working for 50 years to shut the insane reactors at Diablo Canyon. STEVE CARUSO jumps in to remind us of the immense power potential of using hemp to move our vehicle fleet. MYLA RESON reminds Denny of the need to protect what’s left of Santa Monica and LA’s decimated tree canopy.
