Exploding Heritage, Documentary on The Bob Edwards Show
On Friday, July 28, The Bob Edwards Show on XM Satellite Radio’s public radio channel, XMPR (Channel 133) takes up the controversial issue of mountaintop removal in the south-central Appalachian Mountains in the documentary Exploding Heritage. The method of extracting coal by blowing the tops off of mountains is devastating plant and animal life and causing trouble for the people who live nearby. Edwards explores how mountaintop removal is leveling the oldest mountain range in America — leaving the landscape, the local economy and the local culture ravaged.
Mark your calendars.
