Featuring an interview with Nick Cooper, producer of the Soma Documentary showing this Saturday at 7 pm at the Big Muddy IMC (214 N. Washington in Carbondale). Due to the interview, this was our main happening of the day. News includes native fruits for the birds; a heat wave; edible lawns; more about the heat wave; a Smoke-Free Carbondale petition; frivolous Democrat challenges to Green ballot petitions; and headlines about declining US fuel economy, destructive soy products, lazy people saving the planet, Google attacking global warming, Big Brother keeping states from setting tougher toxic rules, and a delawning movement.
