Programming

As long as there's a corporate-owned mainstream media, there's no need to "balance" PBS. We're the antidote to that, and PBS presents programming found nowhere else. Keep "Frontline", keep "Bill Moyers Journal", keep "Now" and of course, the science programs, particularly NOVA. I'd like to see more educational programming, especially regarding climate change. If we don't address that, we really don't have to worry about too much else in the future. Where will we grow our food as droughts and temperature change causes crop failure here and abroad and where's that tipping point for growing crops? How quickly can that move take place? I'd like to know more about the droughts in the Amazon and Australia and what the loss of glaciers means to millions of South Americans. I'd like to see more about the loss of honeybees and what that might mean to food/fruit production. Broadcast the international BBC news so people can see what other nations are reporting, and more importantly, what isn't getting coverage here. More on election fraud, and on Don Siegelman. The dark side of nuclear energy and coal. (We all seem to think there's a magic bullet out there but in a closed system a gain "here" is a loss somewhere else.) Success stories on use of wind, solar, tidal currents as energy. Home solar innovations. Or go way out on a limb and touch the untouchable: population growth.
