NORTHERN ALLIANCE RADIO: MINUTES WITHOUT WORDS
The founder of Earth Day (I think Earth Day was sometime this week but I quickly flipped past any cleanup headlines so missed the festivity details) has a suggestion (one of many) that seems tailor-made for the Northern Alliance Radio Network (credit: An Inclination to Criticize):
74. That radio stations and TV need to program one or more daily Earth Minutes - at 0300, 1100 or 1900 GMT*. These simultaneous global "minutes without words" can be produced independently by any radio or TV station, with views and sounds of nature, children, music, bells, our planet;They always have so much trouble with the bumpers anyway--just use some sounds of the boys' fisticuffs instead! Brilliant!
