Trump’s proposed southern US border ‘Wall’ is immoral and it will have devastating negative impacts on the environment in the region. It will affect wildlife habitat and migrations, plant life, and will create flood conditions that will affect Mexico and the United States. We spoke with Reggie James, Executive Director for the Lone Star Chapter of the Sierra Club about the environmental issues associated with the ‘Wall’.

In the second half of the show we discussed a new documentary about the Wall called “The River and the Wall”. It will be released soon and will be featured at Austin’s SXSW film festival in March. We spoke with the Director, Ben Master’s about the film which presents the beauty surrounding the Rio Grande and the devastating effects that would result from the border ‘Wall’.
