The Green News Report was scheduled to stand down for a few episodes beginning during Memorial Day Week next week, but my cold (the one you may have noticed in Tuesday's report) has gotten a bit worse. Actually, I feel fine, but my voice has another idea entirely.

So we're going to duck out a bit earlier than planned, since we're on the road this week anyway and it makes life, and healing, a bit easier before the holiday.

Brad and I will return with the Green News Report on its usual twice-weekly schedule beginning Thursday, June 7th! "See ya" then!

(P.S. I'll probably be Tweeting throughout the duration nonetheless, so please follow @GreenNewsReport, if you are not already doing so!)
