Radio hosts bring sustainable lifestyle practices to the airways.
Making airwaves
Husband-and-wife team Nick and Helen Forster mix diverse music with an environmental message on their lively radio show, “etown.”
The message
The weekly hour-long “etown” show reaches listeners on more than 150 public and commercial stations nationwide. “We’re a vehicle for information and entertainment,” says Helen. “Instead of sermonizing about the environment, we let others tell their stories.”
