On this week’s show, Chris and his guest, Paul Collier, author of The Plundered Planet, will have a lively discussion about how
must, and how we can, manage nature for global prosperity. Proper stewardship of natural resources is a matter of planetary urgency: they have the potential to either transform the poorest countries or to tear them apart. These issues affect our environment, our politics and our global economy.
Join us this this Saturday morning at 8am on AM 930 WFMD, or listen from anywhere on your pc by logging onto www.wfmd.com and clicking the listen live button.
