from Watchdog Earth: "An Environmental Debate"

from Watchdog Earth, a blog by James Bruggers of the Louisville Courier-Journal:

McCain, Clinton and Obama will have their representatives debating environmental policies on Friday at The National Press Club in Washington, D.C.

C-SPAN is scheduled to broadcast the event, live, roughly between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.

If you don't have access to cable TV, watch it online at the C-SPAN website, here.

The event, Political Climate: Environment, Energy & the 2008 Election, is sponsored by the Society of Environmental Journalists, with BNA, the Environmental Law Institute and National Geographic co-sponsors.

I think this is a pretty big deal. People who have been interested in science, energy and environmental issues like climate change have been frustrated by a lack of in-depth discussion on these important topics in the presidential campaign. This event promises to help get that discussion going.

Details about who's talking, and who's moderating, can be found here.
