Posted by PRI's The World: Technology from BBC/PRI/WGBH
Long podcast this week... A wealth of good stories. Could you survive on 20 liters of water a day? A UN Climate Conference in Kenya. What does the change in power in Washington mean for energy and the environment? No rain in Australia. A Woody Allen impersonator on the podcast? A virtual fence along the U.S. borders with Canada and Mexico. Electronic voting machines: Can they be trusted? Taking courses in terrorism. And last... An airplane that makes no noise. Can that be true?

WTP 126: Climate Change Study, Pay to Park the SUV, Winds of Canada, and Bombs to coffee machines.
Posted by PRI's The World: Technology from BBC/PRI/WGBH
Superb podcast this week. Drive an SUV? Live in the London suburb of Richmond? Want to park your car? Better get out your wallet. Then, up in the great white north, a progressive new program in Canada to harness the winds. An interview about the potential economic impacts of climate change. And put down your weapons and drink coffee! Out of your weapons? And lastly a call for help from the listeners.
