During the Great Depression, the labor movement was a major player pushing a progressive agenda and helping to put people back to work. While we've heard plenty of comparisons between the current recession and the Depression, we haven't seen a return of the kind of militancy that came from labor in the 20s and 30s. With all the anger swirling around right now, where's the organizing?Paula Finn, Editor of the New Labor Forum, Thomas Frank, author of What's the Matter with Kansas? and The Wrecking Crew and Wall Street Journal columnist, Tom Geoghegan, labor lawyer, recent Congressional candidate, and author of Which Side Are You On?: Trying to Be for Labor When It's Flat on Its Back joined Laura to talk about labor's problems and suggest some solutions to help all of us, whether we're union members or not.While labor issues are lately ignored by both parties--Democrats paying lip service and Republicans using populist anger to push through tax cuts for big business--most people can agree that we don't want to be ingesting dangerous chemicals. Yet many plastics used to package food contain Bisphenol A, a synthetic estrogen with harmful effects on the endocrine system.

New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof wrote of the dangers of Bisphenol A, a common chemical in plastics and can liners: While the evidence isn?t conclusive, it justifies precautions. In my family, we?re cutting down on the use of those plastic containers that contain BPA to store or microwave food, and I?m drinking water out of a metal bottle now. In my reporting around the world, I?ve come to terms with the threats from warlords, bandits and tarantulas. But endocrine disrupting chemicals ? they give me the willies. Kristof isn't the only one who gets the chills at the thought of BPA, a synthetic estrogen linked to reproductive cancers. Nena Baker wrote a book, The Body Toxic: How the Hazardous Chemistry of Everyday Things Threatens Our Health and Well-being , on this very subject, and joined Laura in the studio to discuss what can be done about these frightening chemicals. Noting that neither Republicans nor Democrats want their kids ingesting harmful substances, Baker called for government action. "We can't shop our way out of this problem."

Recycling! Recycling! It's something that we all ought to do!Recycling! Recycling! You have the power to reduce and reuse.If you're finished with that bottle, don't throw it away We'll find a way to reuse it some other day Boxes, cans, and your old mail too But you can't recycle spaghettiWe can make new bottles We can reuse the cans We can make new stuff with the trash in your hands Plastic, glass, and cardboard too But you can't recycle spaghetti!

Every day Americans buy 62 million newspapers and throw away 44 million of them. That s like dumping hallf a million trees into a landfill every week! The trees that were chopped down to make new paper can no longer make oxygen, absorb carbon dioxide, or provide a habitat for thousands of species. Every month Americans throw out enough glass bottles and jars to fill a giant skyscraper! All this glass is recyclable! All this glass takes up space in landfills. And this glass will take 4,000 years or more to decompose! Every year more than 100 million cell phones and millions of personal computers are tossed out in the United States. Because these products contain lead, and other hazardous materials, this trash leaks into our environment and threatens human and animal health.What did you throw out today? A water bottle? A soda can? A paper lunch bag? Perhaps some school papers or a cereal box? Did you stop to think whether or not these items could be recycled? This week we visited our Planet Protector, Charleston County Solid Waste, to see if items like these could be recycled into brand new items with another use. We learned just how much Americans discard every day, and we learned how easy it is for us to make a difference just by recycling.
