Live chat with Sierra Club’s Michael Brune

We were all horrified as we watched the catastrophic Deepwater Horizon oil spill unfold. So now what? Champion chatter (and Grist staff writer) David Roberts hosted a pre-Thanksgiving chat with Michael Brune, executive director of the Sierra Club. Thanks to all who joined us as Michael and David discussed how we, as motivated citizens, can pressure corporations and the government to change their energy priorities.
