The GRE is excited to be participating in Earthcast09 this coming Tuesday, April 21st from 7:00 pm -10 pm pacific time. Earthcast09 is a live, 24 hour conversation about all things relating to the environment (view our promo/teaser video). With participation from 4 different continents in several languages (Spanish, English, Portuguese, Chinese, German) this truly is a global project that centers around something that every individual on the planet has a stake in. The broadcast begins at 5:00 pm Pacific time on the 21st and concludes at 5:00 pm pacific time on the 22nd (we're following the 24 hour day as it exists in GMT).
