Today on The Environment Report.
 

Many people are working on ways to generate 

alternative energy for their home.  But many 

states haven't caught up to these new ways 

to make power.  Lester Graham finds out the 

latest on "net metering."  That's when homeowners 

sell energy back to the grid.   

 

And... toxic pond scum.  Amy Quinton

looks into a type of algae that grows 

on lakes.  Scientists have known it 

could be dangerous.  But now researchers 

are investigating a possible connection 

to Lou Gehrig's disease.
