Carol Costello is one the most authentic and trusted journalists in the modern era. Watching her conduct an interview is like a masterclass in how it should be done. Her warm and inviting presence always made her guests comfortable and willing, to tell the truth - no matter how difficult or sensitive the topic happens to be. I swear, she is either Wonder Woman in disguise or was gifted her very own "Lasso of Truth" by her. She's that good at getting real, truthful answers from whomever she might be interviewing. I've been a huge fan of Carol's for as long as I remember, and I still can't believe she said yes to come onto the show. She tells it like it is, and honestly, in a way we all need to hear it. Gosh, how I miss seeing her on television every day.  But she's creating even bigger RIpples today. Helping the next generation of journalists learn to think for themselves, question everything and pursue the facts, not simply strive for the likes, the views, or the notoriety. Why? Because journalists should never be part of the story. The good ones know how to tell it so that we understand and, hopefully, learn from it. To that end, I am grateful to know people like Carol are out there shaping the hearts and minds of our future journalists.

“Part of what has led the movement against fossil fuels is the increased number of people being confronted with the effects of oil drilling and fracking,” argues energy analyst and investigative journalist Antonia Juhasz. The Senior Researcher in the Environment and Human Rights Division at Human Rights Watch talks about how our dependency on fossil fuels impacts the environment, politics, social justice and human rights worldwide. What can be done to bring about a just transition to renewable energy more quickly? Juhasz regularly writes for outlets such as The New York Times, The Guardian and National Geographic, and is the author of Black Tide: the Devastating Impact of the Gulf Oil Spill (2011), among others.

I think it's the most simple advice and it's really important to say yeah but who is going to pay for it? And why would they pay? …I think first of all does the world need it? I think that's a question you need to ask. Is this a nice to have or a need to have?... I think the does the world need this question is a really important one. You could argue with a gamer for example does the world need a game? No but the next question is, does the world won't this and want it enough to pay for it in a monetizable sustainable scalable way?

All life on Earth is threatened by catastrophic climate change--the main culprit is so powerful that the U.S. government is setup to serve it, rather than regulate it. The oil industry is a powerhouse with control over land, resources, politics and more. In this episode of The Empire Files, Abby Martin uncovers big oil's strong-arm reach--its growth, its crimes, its power and its impunity. Featuring interviews with two investigative journalists who have covered oil disasters on-the-ground--Antonia Juhasz, author of "Black Tide: The Devastating Impact of the Gulf Oil Spill", and Greg Palast, author of "Vulture's Picnic: In Pursuit of Petroleum Pig, Power Pirates, and High-Finance Carnivores."

Energy is the lifeblood of the economy. Where it we get it from matters, though. With several oil and gas folks set to take top posts in the new administration, it's important to talk with one of the top people who was a liaison between BP and the clean up, from a scientific side: Rita Colwell, Ph.D, with too many top scientific roles to list. One of the first calls after the catastrophic BP Oil Spill blanketed the previously-pristine Gulf of Mexico on April 20, 20110 came in to Dr. Rita Colwell, renowned microbiologist and oceanographer, former head of the National Science, and now a leader at the University of Maryland. She was tasked with building the10-year BP-funded, independent initiative to study the spill’s impact, and no one was better suited. In this enlightening interview with Green Connections Host Joan Michelson, Dr. Colwell explains: how independent the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative really is, the uniqueness of their business model, and what their extensive research by diverse teams of scientists is teaching us about: how to clean up the spill, the impact on marine ecosystem and marine life, and other discoveries that are enhancing our understanding and management of marine life and/or climate change-related environmental consequences. She also offers terrific career advice from her own experience – as a mentor, a mentee and a leader always pushing the boundaries of innovation via science. Read my Hufington Post blog on this here, which includes the trailer of the new documentary about their work, ”Dispatches from the Gulf,” just released on the sixth anniversary of the spill.

On April 22, 2011, an explosion rocked the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 workers, sinking the rig, and releasing a massive amount of crude oil into the ocean. Nearly 4.9 million barrels of oil (200 million gallons) are believed to have leaked into the Gulf, fouling shorelines, crushing local economies, and damaging the environment to an extent that’s yet to be fully determined. Join American Military University and Dr. Chris Reynolds with a deep dive one year later into the lingering effects of the Gulf Oil Spill.

The 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico was one of the greatest environmental disasters the world has experienced, and proved to be a serious setback for environmental sustainability efforts internationally. For 87 days, oil poured out a mile below the ocean. In this university podcast, Marcia McNutt talks about the leadership lessons learned from this calamitous spill. The event was part of the Von Gugelberg Memorial Lecture on the Environment, sponsored by the Von Gugelberg Memorial Fund. The fund, established by members of the Stanford MBA Class of 1987 to honor the memory of their classmate, Conradin von Gugelberg, aims to inspire and support students and alumni interested in environmental issues. https://ssir.org/podcasts/entry/marcia_mcnutt_gulf_oil_spill_and_environmental_sustainability

Long Island, New York resident Olivia Bouler, wise beyond her eleven years, decided to take action. She began drawing birds and selling them to help in the efforts to clean up the devastating spill and begin the long process of rehabilitating the wildlife in the area.

BP may finally "kill" the oil well this week, but there's dispute about its strategy for long-term cleanup. Has the Gulf been a dumping ground for American industry? How are Gulf residents coping with two major disasters in five years? Also, President Obama on his promise to end the war in Iraq, and BlackBerry smart phones and the clash of cultures.

Every day, the news is filled with stories of communities and fisherman in the Gulf impacted by BP's oil spill. But where are the voices of the Gulf Coast's large Native American, African American, and Vietnamese fishing communities? Kirk Cheramie of the United Houma Nation joins Terra Verde to provide a window on the oil spill from an environmental justice perspective.   The post Terra Verde – Gulf Oil Spill from an Environmental Justice Lens appeared first on KPFA.

Using Hooponopono clearing techniques brought forward by Dr Hew Len and more, the clearing we will do today will be directed at helping to clean up the most major oil spill in history - at the energetic roots. www.NewsfortheSoul.com

Is the Gulf oil disaster a wake-up call for all of America, where oil is used at a greater rate than anyplace else in the world? Should some of the anger against BP and the rest of the oil industry be re-directed toward the oil-consumption economy? Also, BP finds some success in capping it leaking well, and the World Cup and the flight of the soccer ball.

  A Meditation for the Gulf Oil Spill - Connecting Consciousness The meditation was given through me by Shesat, who is the female companion of Thoth.  He was also present, and shared some important observations.  One was that because of the attention humanity is now giving to the water, fish and environment in the Gulf, a connecting doorway has opened between our consciousness  and the consciousness of these other beings. Thoth weaves his information in between the meditations that Shesat gives. This lasts for about 50 minutes, and then there is a time of Q & A which draws out some additional information.   Some of this may be time-sensitive, so I did not edit the meditation.    Below is the original channeling from Thoth seemingly predicting the Gulf Oil Spill. It comes from my Phone Meditation/podcast "Easing, not Heaving into Transition",Oct 14, 2008. The transcription was published by Sedona Journal of Emergence December 2008. “...a crisis around energy and land is apt to move onto the world's stage.  The energy of this episode is likely to take the form of a major natural disaster involving oil drilling in the ocean.  It will be in a location and of a size that significantly impacts the food supply for millions of people. “This episode will force you to examine how you extract oil from within the Earth.  It will also force into the general media and into your awareness already known facts about the damage your current style of oil drilling has done to the planet.  It might be so devastating that oil drilling is banned by most countries.  “This information is not shared as a way to create fear.  Rather, it is shared to remind you that change is constant, and what doesn't change easily, bit by bit, will ultimately change dramatically.”It is my hope that this meditation and the others that are available as mp3s and CDs are of use to you in your life.  As always, donations help to offset the cost of maintaining the mp3 download site, sound editing, and such.  My blessings to each of you, -Norma More meditations, healing music, and free newsletters at Norma's website www.healingchants.com If you enjoyed this podcast, please consider making a donation  

As thick ooze begins to wash up on the Gulf coast, tensions are rising between BP, the Obama Administration and independent scientists.  What's in store for marine life, human health - and regulatory authority? Majority Leader Harry Reid says the Senate's finance reform means, “the joyride on Wall Street will come to a screeching halt.”  Will the House go along?  And, with jittery investors looking on worldwide, Germany today agreed to spend almost a trillion dollars to bailout the rest of Europe.

Because of the Gulf oil spill, polls show increased support for climate change legislation among American voters. But Senate Republican leaders say they'll oppose a compromise measure unveiled yesterday by Democrat John Kerry and Independent Joe Lieberman. The bill would provide incentives for offshore oil exploration—while also allowing states to veto drilling in the waters of neighboring states. What else would it do? We'll hear more today about nuclear power, so-called “clean coal” and consumer protection. Also, Why is the “Peace Process” more process than peace?

At a Senate hearing in Washington today, three companies pointed fingers at one another for what's shaping up as a world-class disaster. Democrats, as well as Republicans, said offshore oil drilling still makes sense—if it's made safer. Forensic investigators now report there were warnings of trouble and arguments over how to proceed before the deadly explosions 3 weeks ago. In the Gulf itself, the oil slick continues to grow as changing winds are pushing it west toward Louisiana. And on Reporter's Notebook.... will other states follow Arizona's example?

More today on desperate efforts to limit potential damage from the Gulf Oil spill that could extend from the Mississippi Delta all the way to the Eastern seaboard. We'll also hear about unsettling questions being raised in Washington.

BP says it's responsible for whatever cleanup the Gulf oil spill requires. As the oil slick moves closer to show, we hear what could be in store for wildlife, economic interests and America's continuing appetite for energy. Also, the US and Iran joust over nuclear nonproliferation, and Greece gets a bailout. Will it save the Euro?
