The Naturalist
Newtown Creek
This week on The Naturalist Bernie and Carol discussed the Superfund Status: a way to use government funds to clean up public areas with environmental significance...as long as they're really, really dirty. They take a look at Newtown Creek, which runs from Brooklyn to Queens, and talk about the sometimes byzantine process of attaining Superfund status. This episode was sponsored by Cain Winery and Vineyards: supporters of the growing movement to change how we think about our planet.
