GLIN==> The Environment Report for 02.06.09

Today on The Environment Report...

One of the big plans to kickstart the
economy is to invest in green jobs.
But Julie Grant tells us about a new
report that reveals some of those jobs
don't pay as well as people were expecting...
and there's already some outsourcing of
those jobs to other countries.

And... Sandra Sleight-Brennan has the
final story in our series on mountaintop
removal coal mining.  Today, she looks
at how some churches and synagogues are
joining the debate.
