Robert Kennedy speaks on the state of the urban environment in a one hour high speed broadcast from wgbh boston which you can access through http://forum.wgbh.org/wgbh/forum.php?lecture_id=1759 Kennedy's talk is brilliant. You get the Kennedy Genius coming through him and his values for the environment make him a man with the right vision. First, his analysis of the Bush administrations silent attrition on the environmental protections of the last fifty years is first rate. Just scathing critique and on point all the way down the list. Second, his history of the concept of Nature as a public trust and a public good is a story of the presence of nature in the American character through its early writes such Hawthorne and Thoreau.
