March 15 - Join us as we explore and restore our relationship to the earth through music, poetry and dialogue. in our first hour, we talk with Carol Ohmart Behan from upstate New York about the upcoming World Water Day, consciously using intention and attention to change water using Dr. Masaru Emoto's work and Onondaga Lake, the historical home of the Peacemaker and once one of America's dirtiest lakes. (See www.worldwaterday.net and go to www.hado.net and http://www.masaru-emoto.net/english/e_ome_annai.html for photo's of Dr. Emoto's water crystals and more. His work is a testament to the potential of intention. See www.http://onondagalakepeacefestival.org/index2.htmor for more on Onondaga lake.)

At 9:00am, we use music, poetry and dialogue to devote time to the mountains of Appalachia, the second most biodiverse area of the world. Margaret Stewart of Louisville, KY talks about www.ilovemountains.org and her journey to Mountaintop Removal, what it is, how we contribute in our own homes to the painful destruction of mountain tops and what we can to do help heal and reclaim these mountains. This is an ongoing issue in TN too. See www.tnleaf.org. for efforts legislatively to protect Tennessee's mountains. (The Tennessean carried Dawn's efforts on the front page today. http://www.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?Category=NEWS ) Please take a moment to read this story and contact the Senator and Representative listed in Tennessee in support of Senate Bill 3822 and House Bill 3348.
