Segment 1: Harley-Davidson Going Electric
Anton talks about Harley Davidson’s announcement that they are going to transition into fully electric... eventually. It is a sincere goal or just another case of green washing?
Segment 2: Fireworks' Environmental Impact
This month the United States celebrated independence day with the tradition of fireworks. Although a fun spectacle, fireworks actually cause a great deal of environmental damage. Shelby covers different eco-friendly alternatives to fireworks that would limit air pollution.
Segment 3: Outdated Urban Sprawl
Urban sprawl has always been less sustainable, but new developments are even less sustainable when they don't account for climate change! Anton explains the negatives of building new developments with outdated practices that will ultimately fail in the face of climate change.
