The Next Green Thing: Plug-in Hybrid Cars

By Virginia Prescott on Wednesday, January 30, 2008.

From time to time on Word of Mouth, we turn our attention to the environment. We talk with folks about the newest ways people are trying to keep the sky blue, the earth healthy, and the climate livable. We call this regular segment "The Next Green Thing".

Today, we kick things off with a conversation about plug-in hybrid cars. WoM host Virginia Prescott talks with environmental writer Jim Motavalli. Jim is an editor for E: The Environmental Magazine and author of several books, including, Forward Drive: The Race to Build "Clean" Cars for the Future. His latest book is Naked in the Woods: Joseph Knowles and the Legacy of Frontier Fakery

Word of Mouth Wants YOU!

By Andrew Walsh on Wednesday, January 30, 2008.

Are you an avid reader? Are you the film buff among your circle of friends? Do you know about new musicians before anyone else does?

If you're passionate about the arts and culture, then we want your help.

Word of Mouth is looking for citizen "critics" who can talk with us on the air about new goings-on in the world of arts and culture. If you're an architecture buff, for example, we can call on you from time to time to learn more about what's happening in the field. We want to use your passion for arts and culture to share new issues, ideas and trends with our listeners.
