APRIL 22, 2008

Today on Word of Mouth we celebrate Earth Day. We’ll look at how computer engineers are trying to make giant data farms more eco-friendly, we’ll look at Polar Bears as the ultimate poster-animal for global warming, and we’ll talk with an environmental filmmaker about her animated short, The Story of Stuff. We’ll also talk with writer Clay Shirky, who explains how new technology is changing the way people organize and mobilize.
