Your Host Joe & Annie have a mission! This isn't our conversation, its our Community’s Conversation!

Our show's mission is to offer hope to the still suffering alcoholics and drug addicts in our community. Addiction is the most misunderstood disease of our time. Addicts and alcoholics feel separate, different and alone in our society more than ever. We, as a show, are determined to dispel myths, misconceptions, and societal stigma of this disease and those afflicted by it. By tuning in weekly our listeners will be exposed to personal stories and tragedies from addicts and alcoholics themselves. In addition, our show's purpose is to transmit hope, awareness, and shed light on the growing population of those recovering from this fatal illness. By carrying a message each week of depth and weight on the topic of addiction, we aspire to make a positive impact on this ever growing epidemic that is killing people in record numbers in our city as well as globally.

On this week’s edition of Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, gets deep in the grease traps with Todd Bluechel, President of Sales, Marketing & Business Development at Oil Tech, a local, family-owned company that collects waste cooking oil from restaurants and institutions so that it can be turned into a renewable fuel known as biodiesel.

Thanks to Todd’s efforts with the city, residents can now recycle their waste cooking oil, too. First let the oil cool, then strain out food particles and pour the oil into a container that has a lid. Take it to the nearest full-service recycling location and hand it to a staff member. Oil Tech collects the used cooking oil and recycles it into biodiesel fuel. Full-service recycle centers are open Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. and located at:

1. Southwest Government Center (7219 Dixie Highway in Pleasure Ridge Park);

2. Central Government Center (7201 Outer Loop in Highview); or

3. East District Public Works (595 N. Hubbards Lane, at Brownsboro Rd.)

Get more helpful information about how to recycle or dispose of items through Recycle Coach, an online resource from Public Works at https://louisvilleky.gov/government/public-works/disposal-calendar-alerts-tips

On Truth to Power, we (normally) fill the studio with Forward Radio programmers and friends to discuss the state of the world, the nation, the state, and the city! It's a community conversation like you won't hear anywhere else!

However, due to the coronavirus and the need for "social distancing" this week, we feature a solo performance, by host Hart Hagan.

We're talking about Coronavirus and Climate Justice. We are reading through a great press release from the Climate Justice Alliance.

Truth to Power airs every Sunday at 4pm, Monday at 2pm, and Tuesday at 9am on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at http://forwardradio.org
