 I was just awarded a Pollination Project grant for creating and producing Planet Philadelphia. So excited and pleased. Check it out: https://thepollinationproject.org/grants-awarded/kay-wood-planetphiladelphia/ I had an op-ed published in the Philadelphia Business Journal titled "The other gas that could transform Philadelphia's economic future." Here's the link: http://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/blog/guest-comment/2015/12/the-other-gas-that-could-transform-philadelphias.html in Portland, Oregon where they’re already been putting water pipes in the streets with turbines providing non-stop energy – now the next step -- started using something called toilet turbines as a source of renewable energy: https://www.minds.com/blog/view/415942000412463104/portland-installs-turbines-in-their-city-water-pipes-powers-city-by-flushing-toilets In addition to the Toyota Mirai, Hyundai and Kia are making hydrogen fuel cell cars. So is Volkswagon. Audi will debuting a hydrogen fuel cell car at the Detroit Auto Show … And now Honda and General Motors announced that they will be working together on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles … this is even while we have some of the lowest gas prices I’ve ever seen… car makers seem to expect the infrastructure to come on line. Because there’s increases in federal fuel-economy standards coming in 2017- about 37 m.p.g. by next year, mandated corporate average fuel economy of 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/12/business/going-electric-even-if-gas-is-cheap.html?hpw&rref=business&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=well-region®ion=bottom-well&WT.nav=bottom-well&_r=0 Planet Philadelphia Jan. 15, 2016 show podcast Link: https://www.mixcloud.com/PlanetPhiladelphia/live-streaming-environmental-news-interviews-music-and-more-on-planet-philadelphia-jan-15-2016/ To make a comment about what you hear on Planet Philadelphia or if you have a question, please call the listener Comment Line: (484)278-1846.
