(flickr/Oquendo)Breaking Point?
Is common ground possible on the question of whether to shut down the Indian Point nuclear power plant? The Garrison Institute’s Hudson River Project is hosting a public discussion on the question of Indian Point. A representative from Entergy, the plant’s owner, and from the environmental group Riverkeeper will be joined by conflict resolution experts and other interested participants. Plus, the next installment of The Border: How do other countries handle illegal immigration and guest workers? And swimming across the Hudson, and your calls on in-vitro fertilization.
