Stewart Brand's Pragmatic Environmentalism

Listen Live at 1pm ET/10am PT

Stewart Brand’s latest book, Whole Earth Discipline: An Ecopragmatist Manifesto, questions some of the central tenets of environmentalism. Is nuclear power bad? Can biotechnology serve the planet? Can science and engineering advance the environmentalist cause?

As the title suggests, Brand thinks it’s time to set aside some long-held views and embrace a more realistic approach to face environmental challenges. Brand joins host Michael Krasny today on KQED's Forum.
