Brian O'Leary: The Environment is Calling
Tonight we talk to a good man and an amazing thinker: Dr. Brian O'Leary. Here is his bio from his website:
Brian O’Leary, Ph.D. is a
scientist-philosopher with fifty years of experience in academic
research, teaching and government service in frontier science and energy
policy. He was a NASA scientist-astronaut during the Apollo program,
the first to be selected for a planned Mars mission, and he
participated in unmanned planetary missions as an Ivy League
professor.
Over the past four decades, Dr. O'Leary has been an
international author, speaker, peace activist, founder of non-profits,
and adviser to progressive U.S. Congress members and presidential
candidates. His latest book, The Energy Solution Revolution, describes
the enormous potential of breakthrough clean energy technologies,
their suppression and their logical necessity for our survival.
Dr. O'Leary was recently appointed director of Ecuador affairs for the Intergovernmental Renewable Energy Organization, affiliated with the United Nations. He is now "retired" in Vilcabamba, Ecuador, constructing and opening a new eco-retreat center for peace, sustainability, the arts and new science.
Forgive me for taking so long to get this notice posted; we've had a whole lot of family and friends and just big general stuff to deal with this week. We'll touch on that in the first half hour, and then it will be a most wonderful conversation with Dr. O'Leary, I am certain. Please tune in!
