Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It has been ten years since the Exxon Valdez hit a reef and spilled eleven million gallons of oil into Alaska’s Prince William Sound. Join Kathy Merritt and a panel of experts to discuss what we have learned about marine oil spills and environmental damage since then, how the Coast Guard is monitoring and working to prevent oil pollution, and what challenges still exist for industry, the government, and environmentalists.
Guests
- Eric Nalder Chief Investigative Reporter at the Seattle Times
- Brent Blackwelder President, Friends of the Earth
- Admiral James Loy Commandant of the US Coast Guard
- Adam Kolton Arctic Refuge Campaign Director of the Alaska Wilderness League
