Host Margaret Harrington reads the letter to supporters from the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) on their winning the Nobel Peace Prize. The nine nations who have nuclear weapons have not signed the treaty to abolish nuclear weapons. They are the United States, China, Russia, Great Britain, France, India, Israel, Pakistan, and North Korea. ICAN modeled their campaign on the International Campaign to Ban Landmines which with its American Coordinator, Jody Williams, won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1997. Jody Williams speaks in Vermont at the first statewide Nuclear Disarmament Day observed on August 6th, the day the United States bombed Hiroshima.

Host Brett Gaskill speaks with Steven and Luann Therrien on their experience with an industrial wind project in Sheffield, VT. The Sheffield project consists of 16 turbines. The nearest turbine to the Therrien's home was less than 3/4 of a mile away. 5 were within 1 mile, and all 16 within 2 miles. The Therriens moved from Sheffield after 18 years due to the health problems they faced.
