Results from a study conducted by UM graduate students linking recent increases in ethanol production to past and future loss of prairie grasslands and wildlife populations graced the national news in January and generated considerable backlash from industry groups, including the Renewable Fuels Association.

Join us this week on It’s Hot in Here as we talk science, species and scandal with two of the study’s co-authors Becca Brooke and Aviva Glasser.

As always, we promise all the environmental news, eclectic grooves, and comical commentary you need to start your week of green!
