Want to keep up on the environment? Join me every Wednesday for "PDX-Earth" on Portland State University's KPSU radio (kpsu.org) from 1-2 p.m. (PST) where we'll focus on what you and I can do to save the world. Today's show will discuss how Donald Trump gutted the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) so dramatically that this year's El Nino weather pattern could be the most devastating ever, the native tribes that pushed back - and won - against drilling in the sacred Black Hills, how the Trump Administration quietly lifted hunting regulations on public lands - without public approval, an interview with Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) creative director Ciera Iveson regarding the permanent climate change exhibit that opened this month, the eco-impact of bottled water, tips to lower your carbon footprint, and music from Germany, Senegal, Vietnam, Nigeria, Brazil and Motown.
