Today on The Environment Report... You might be able to get some cash for your rusty old car. Tamara Keith reports that Congress is kicking around a "cash for clunkers" program - you could trade in your rust bucket for a much more fuel efficient car. The hope is that the program will jumpstart the American auto industry. And... the U.S. is in the middle of a huge transition in terms of where we get energy and how we use it. Some business leaders predict these changes will be disastrous for the economy. Lester talks about these concerns with Tom Lyon, the Director of the Erb Institute for Global Sustainable Enterprise.
