March 03, 2015 C1 Revue: Power and Population
The Red/Blue divide in American politics is really a rainbow of perspectives. And they are colored by who you are, where you live and what you believe.

Today, our guests will look at how issues of big government, population growth and the growing Hispanic vote influence our views on climate change. While Texas Governor Rick Perry maintains that regulation by big government is hindering, not helping energy innovation, leaders in the Latino green movement think that preserving the environment is linked to issues of inequality.
