GLIN==> The Environment Report for 08.17.09

Today on The Environment Report

 Saving the snail kite. Rebecca
Williams visited the Florida
Everglades to find out what 
scientists are doing to try 
to keep snail kites from dying
out... and why the scientists
need to watch their backs when
they work.

And... the Great Pacific Garbage
Patch. Lester talks with a team 
of researchers out on a boat in 
the middle of the Pacific Ocean. 
They're studying a swirling 
vortex of trash that has 
accumulated out in the water.
