Supreme Decisions

Boston Calling

Available for over a year

The US Supreme Court backed gay rights this week. We explore how other countries deal with issues such as gay rights and same-sex marriage. Also, President Obama jumps into the climate change conversation by calling for cuts to US greenhouse gas emissions. We go on board the world’s largest solar-powered vehicle while it’s docked in Boston. And, we talk to a disabled American who is making a documentary film about limited accessibility in Europe. Plus, we hear about cutting edge origami techniques from an origami master living in California. (Image: Rainbow flags waving in front of the US Supreme Court in Washington DC.
