Solartopia Green Power & Wellness Hour

We start our SOLARTOPIA GREEN POWER & WELLNESS SHOW with the campaign to save the famous CHAIN REACTION statue that now graces downtown Santa Monica.  Dave Conrad, son of the famed cartoonist, tells us of the popular movement to preserve this unique 26-foot-high monument to ending the nuclear age. Then we explore the MYTH OF NUCLEAR SWORDS TO PLOUGHSHARES as exposed by Georgia activist Glenn Carroll.  We examine the realities of the hugely over-budget Savannah River Project in South Carolina.  This immense federal boondoggle was meant to convert weapons-grade plutonium into commercial reactor fuel but has jumped in price by a factor of at least ten, and the Obama Administration is, thankfully, working to pull the plug.  Along with the chaotic construction problems at Georgia' Vogtle and Summer in South Carolina, Glenn tells us in depth how the future of nuclear power in the southeast is very much in doubt. Glenn also shocks us with the news that the TEA PARTY in Georgia has been moved to action by soaring nuclear subsidies, and is now FIGHTING HARD FOR SOLAR POWER, a first as best we can tell in the entire nation.  Join us in Solartopia to hear it all!!!

THE CIA HEARTS HOLLYWOOD as writer-editor Ed Rempell and actor David Clennon tell us how Spies R Us impacts what we see at the theaters and on TV.  Rempell links the 1950s ritual murders of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg to today's hyper-assault on our rights and freedoms.  Clennon, who played an American diplomat in the classic 1970s film MISSING, shows why so many of today's movies are about espionage and the national security state.  Join us as Solartopia takes the NSA to the silver screen.

Victory at San Onofre!!!!.   We celebrate our huge no nukes triumph with four great expert activists. This joyous look forward to Solartopia is not to be missed. ENJOY!!!!!

FLOODS & TSUNAMIS & EARTHQUAKES….OH MY!!!! as the Solartopia Show hosts our leading experts on 3 sets of atomic reactors smack dab in Mother Nature's death zones.

Jim Riccio of Greenpeace USA fills us in on the accursed triplet nukes at Oconee, South Carolina, right the path of potential dam breaks that could bring us new Fukushimas.

Mike Keegan tells of southern Michigan's infamous Fermis, a mere stone's throw from the statue of George Armstrong Custer.

Myla Reson and Ace Hoffman report the latest from the San Onofre tsunami zone.

All in all, a nuclear horror show you can't afford to miss.

The REAL EXPERTS tell us how to KEEP SAN ONOFRE SHUT as we hear from the great Arnie Gundersen and Kendra Ulrich of Friends of the Earth.  Their successful suit at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has won an order requiring public hearings and a full investigation into how San Onofre Units 2 and 3 wound up with a defective steam generator system that could threaten the entire US if allowed to operate again.

Michael Keegan fills us in on parallel complications at Michigan's Fermi Units 2 and 3, while Myla Reson and Ace Hoffman report on the rising southern California opposition to any nuclear restart.  As the atomic energy experiment winds to a close, SOLARTOPIA draws ever closer thanks to these great people.

We go from SAN ONOFRE to SYRIA on today's Solartopia Green Power & Wellness Show at 3pm eastern time at www.prn.fm (888-874-4888).  ACE HOFFMAN and MYLA RESON update us from southern California as Southern California Edison for the first time mentions the possibility of permanently shutting these two cursed reactors on the quake/tsunami coast. The DAVID SWANSON joins to discuss events in Syria and with Guantanamo, drones and the whole sorry array of imperial issues we now face.  An esteemed member of the Green Party Shadow Cabinet, David's decades of peace activism guarantee, as always, an informed, inspired interview.    www.prn.fm.

OUR PEOPLE'S GREEN (SHADOW) CABINET with JILL STEIN, 2012 Green Party Presidential candidate comes to as after the great ACE HOFFMAN gives us the weekly update on the struggle to keep those SAN ONOFRE reactors shut.  As local governments line up in opposition, and whistleblowers warn of likely disaster, a tsunami of safe energy activism is redefining the future of southern California. As for "Madame President" Jill Stein, since her 2012 campaign she's been been pulling together a "government" of organizers and experts who can save this country in ways the corporate mainstream will never imagine.  With some 80 lifelong activists of all ages, backgrounds and areas of expertise, this merry band of great minds and hearts is offering hope and guidance for a sustainable world to come.

WE GET TO SOLARTOPIA BY SHUTTING SAN ONOFRE as we begin with nuclear opponents Donna Gilmore and Michael Mariotte.  From southern California Donna tells us about the local battle to keep Units 2 & 3 permanently shut.  Michael speaks from the Nuclear Information & Resource Service about how the Nuclear Regulatory Commission needs to be forced to stop giving out licenses to reactors that threaten us all. Then PAUL GIPE re-joins us to further explain the nuts and bolts of how Solartopian technology is re-shaping our world's energy system.  A true godfather of the renewable energy industry, Paul's iron grip on the nitty-gritties of the green transformation in Germany and elsewhere makes for an irreplaceable primer on how we must power a truly sustainable future.

CLEAN TECH NATION with CLINT WILDER comes to the Solartopia Green Power & Wellness Show today at 3pm eastern at www.prn.fm.  Clint has a world of wisdom on where our country needs to go to convert to safe, cheap, clean technologies that will allow us to survive on this planet.  We'll trade some "war stories" on 2 No Nukes concerts 30 years apart. But before we go there, Myla Reson will join us from southern California with the latest on the battle to keep San Onofre shut.
