About this listen

Mike Tidwell is a journalist, author, and climate activist living in Takoma Park, MD. He served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) from 1985 to 1987, where he taught fish farming in the village of Kalambayi. His most recent book is a detailed examination of the dramatic impacts of global warming in his own front yard, called “The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue: A story of Climate and Hope on One American Street. “ He founded the Chesapeake Climate Action Network in 2002. The climate crisis is moving at an even more rapid pace in every area of the world. Tacoma Park, MD, is the first city in America that experienced the elimination of a gasoline station and the substitution of an EV charging station only. The Trump administration is being counterproductive by promoting fossil fuels rather than enhancing clean energy policies.
