Environmentalists To Obama: Seize The Moment

length: 4:25   credit: npr - all things considered   download

With anger building over the BP oil spill, environmentalists are wondering if President Obama will stand up to Big Energy and get to work on climate change. Melissa Block talks to Bill McKibben, one such person waiting for a more forceful message from the White House. He wrote an op-ed in Sunday's Los Angeles Times, in which he writes: "Obama's barely broken a sweat on climate change ... We need someone to stand up and tell it the way it is, and in language so compelling and dramatic it sets us on a new path."
