The South Fork Offshore Wind Farm that would supply electric power to East Hampton has been approved by the Long Island Power Authority, but must meet NY State and Federal agency approval as well. It has been met by stiff opposition over the impact on the fishing industry of the windmills and the electric cable connecting them to shore. Also questions have arisen about how much power would be generated during the summer when electric usage peaks, and how the wind generated power fits into LIPA’s electric grid. We talk with regulatory consultant Thomas Bjurlof. Sustainable East End is heard monthly on the 3rd Wednesday at this time and is archived at sustainableeastend.blogspot.com

Featured Guests:

1.

He’ll also address the dangers of an escalation of the conflict, possible direct confrontation with Russia, more constructive methods to prevent the illegal use of chemical weapons and negotiate an end to the Syrian war.
2. Alex Lawson, Executive Director of Social Security Works, discusses House Speaker Paul Ryan’s announced departure from Congress, his long running goal to “reform” – cut – Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid programs – and the ongoing effort by President Trump and the Republican Party to raise the eligibility age, reduce benefits and institute “Chained CPI,” for the nation’s social safety net programs.
3. Kevin Zeese, a public interest attorney, co-director of PopularResistance.org and It’s Our Economy, an organization that advocates for democratizing the economy, talks about his recent article, co-written with Dr. Margaret Flowers, titled, “The Role of Youth in the Coming Transformation,” and the launch on his Popular Resistance School on May 1st.  He’ll examine how this moment of youth activism is an important opportunity to connect the dots on a wide range of important issues that relate back to America’s failing economic and political system.
4. Chuck Rosina, a long time public affairs and news producer at WMBR FM, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s radio station, talks about the MIT Day of Action on April 17, where “members of the MIT and broader local community will pause everyday activities and devote the day to engaging with the political, economic, environmental, and social challenges facing us today — through learning, discussion, reflection, and planning for action.”
