Natural Steps with Sustainable Lawrence

Josh Tickell & Rebecca Harrell, the Director and Producer of the Sundance award-winning film Fuel. They discuss their Green Bus Tour and the information gap about alternative fuels - the gap between what is known at the grassroots level and what is known by lawmakers. Their Veggie Van, fueled by algae, has been driven across the country and to Capitol Hill. This very information session sheds light on just what fuels we should be focusing on for a sustainable future.

Peter Kasabach, Executive Director of NJ Future, gives his insight on smart growth in New Jersey.
