I am going to be focusing on what to do when disaster strikes PART 2. 

Progressive Commentary Hour - 09.11.17

I am going to be focusing on what to do when disaster strikes. We just had the worst flooding in American History in Texas and Louisiana. 
We had the worst storm in a long time in Florida, leaving 6.1 million Floridians without power. 
How do you survive that?
It is going to happen elsewhere. Montana has the worst fire in the State’s history... Idaho, Oregon, Washington State and California are on fire. We have natural disasters everywhere.  Yet, we are completely unprepared. 
My entire show tonight will be addressing this, the future, the places we can live, the places we shouldn’t live, and what is going to happen to the value of real-estate, our homes, our apartments, condominiums in the places that are most likely to suffer continuing environmental disasters.

CONVERSATIONS WITH REMARKABLE MINDS

 

Today we need a new vision for our culture and how it relates to the world, the environment, other species, and each other in order to survive the future. This vision cannot only be practical, but spiritual as well. The old myths need to be broken apart and replaced with new stories. And most important, we need a biology of wonder, of love and the spirituality of a commons that goes beyond the human community. Prof Andreas Weber is a passionate visionary, a renowned biologist, historian of culture, ethical philosopher and an environmental activist who argues for a new kind of Enlightenment thinking that unites rather divides us. we will discuss what it means to feel alive today, alive with passion and Eros, which may be one of our last saving graces for ourselves and the planet.  Prof Weber is a professor of philosophy at Leuphania University in Germany and  the University of Fine Arts in Berlin and is the author of several books including "The Biology of Wonder: Aliveness, Feeling and Metamorphosis of Science" and "Matter and Desire: An Erotic Ecology."

Lorie Van Auken lost her husband Kenneth on September 11, 2001 when American Airlines flight 11 crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center.  At that time, Ken and Lorie had two children, Sarah and Matthew, then aged 12 and 14 respectively.  Lorie is one of the “Jersey Girls” – a group of New Jersey widows that fought the Bush Cheney administration for a commission investigation into events on 911.  She was a member of the Family Steering Committee for the 911 Commission, and struggled for justice for those murdered on 911 by getting the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act or JASTA passed through Congress, which removes sovereign immunity from any nation directly involved in terrorism, including 911.

Les Jamieson has been researching the alternative scenarios behind 911 since November 2001 and has been publicly active in the 911 Truth efforts to bring attention to the discrepancies in the official 911 commission report since 2004.  He attended two of the Commission hearings, and five of the NIST investigations into the causes for the buildings’ collapse.  Les was a pivotal in generating grassroots support for the release of the secret 28 pages from the Congressional Joint Inquiry on 911 and the passage of the JASTA Act, and has chaired panels on the 28 pages at 911 symposiums.
