The Green Minute
Saturdays during Radiolab
The Green Minute with Christal White (of The Green Project) is a brief eco morsel focused on answering nagging environmental questions, explaining the hows and whys of finding the greener path and giving earth friendly advice on everyday topics — simply and sustainably.
Join us each Saturday during Radiolab for a glimpse of green as we highlight recycling events and resources in New Orleans, gain insights on environmental issues, showcase slices of the green life and foster in a more sustainable city.
