Issue Tuesdays: The Environment

Our issue Tuesday series continues with a look at where the Republican Presidential Candidates stand on the environment.  It’s a low priority for most G. O. P. voters this year, but the candidates do have their positions from energy policy to the impact of regulation on business to the elimination of  the E. P. A.  We’ll find out what they’re saying and how that’s playing in the Republican primary. 

Guests

  • Paul A. Barresi - Professor of Political Science and Environmental Law School of Arts and Sciences Southern New Hampshire University
  • Ben Geman - Staff Writer who covers energy and environment issues for The Hill
