 Listen to Planet Philadelphia 4-5 pm Friday January 3, 2020 on WGGT-LP 92.9 FM Germantown Community Radio and streaming at gtownradio.com. Start the New Year off right by learning about some great ways to make our world better with Planet Philadelphia guests:  The power of community organizing: achieving victories to reach a regenerative economy: Anthony Rogers-Wright, Policy Coordinator for the Climate Justice Alliance (CJA). He has over ten years of policy analysis, community organizing and outreach/advocacy experience. Anthony will explain the origins of the climate justice ideas in the GND as well as discuss why he and the CJA believe that a “just transition” to a greener world must place race, gender and class at the center of solutions. Anthony was interviewed at the recent NetRoots Conference in Philadelphia.  Wondering what to do with your old Christmas Tree? Here’s a regenerative solution: Karen Krivit, Philly Goat Project Director Karen Krivit and several enthusiastic volunteers talk about this unique community-based program. Don’t throw your Christmas tree in the trash. Recycle it by feeding it to the goats at the Philly Goat Project at Awbury Arboretum's Agricultural Village.  Only a couple days left to help
