Today on RELOCALIZING VERMONT - Corporations have legal personhood - should the same apply to rivers, lakes, and land? And how local communities and the state of Vermont are working to ensure broadband internet and net neutrality.
9:00 - 10:00 am
The Earth Law Center is advancing the legal doctrine that nature itself has rights worthy of protection in our legal system. ELC attorney Grant Wilson will be speaking at Vermont Law School this Friday 12:45 - 2:00 pm, and he’ll gi...ve us an overview of how rights for nature are surprisingly already somewhat established in law, and what could be gained by expanding recognition of nature’s rights.
Berlin Selectboard member Jeremy Hansen has led a successful effort to establish a new, locally owned Central Vermont Internet communication district that 12 towns and cities voted to join on Town Meeting Day. One of the attractions of CVI was that it could promise net neutrality to its users, regardless of what federal regulations say. He’ll explain what’s people can expect from local broadband, and we’ll talk about the state of Vermont’s new incorporation of net neutrality into its procurement requirements, and what that means for the rest of us.
10:00 - 10:30 am

Coming up Thursday on Goddard College Community Radio - we focus on the difficulties of keeping bees in Vermont today, and how people are responding to them—including a new business partnering with chemical-free beekeepers to make a food out of drone larvae!
9:00 - 10:00 am
With climate change, agricultural chemicals, and parasitic mites, it’s grown more and more difficult to raise bees in Vermont. We’ll get perspectives from one beekeeper who says he doesn’t know how to make... a living raising bees without chemicals, another who has written Natural Beekeeping: Organic Approaches to Modern Apiculture, and two recent UVM graduates who are figuring out a new way to monetize chemical-free beekeeping, by making a food out of some of the drone larvae.
