Will Young People Save the Earth?

What can we learn from the next generation of environmental activists? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with winners of this year's David Brower Youth Awards, which honors young people for their achievements in the fields of environmental and social justice advocacy. Do you know a young person who's inspired you to do more to protect the environment?

Join us live at 11 or email us at feedback@yourcallradio.org. Is there a heightened environmental consciousness in the next generation? It's Your Call, with Sandip Roy and you.

Guests:
Sharon Smith, program director for the Brower Youth Awards & New Leaders Initiative

Robin Bryan, a 21-year-old student from Canada whose project protects 1 million acres of forest in Canada from industrial logging.

Alec Loorz, a 15-year-old student from Southern California, who initiated Kids vs. Global Warming and is the youngest presenter of Al Gore's "The Climate Project."
