witf wrapped up Green Action Day with a special live broadcast from the Green Center of Central PA in midtown Harrisburg Thursday evening, but it wasn't an ordinary program. For the entire hour, a violent thunderstorm raged outside with two inches of rain pelting the windows, 50 mile-per-hour winds blowing branches down the street outside, a door being held from flying off it's hinges by one of witf's engineers, and a burst of hale that sounded like machine gun fire. It had to be one of the most unique live broadcast in witf's almost 50 year history.
The storm didn't detract from the content of the show -- a focus on green technology curriculums and generally education efforts toward living greener. The panelists -- Doug Neidich of GreenWorks Development; Ron Young, interim president at HACC -- Central PA's Community College; Dan Wagner, Director of Manufacturing and Green Technologies at HACC; and Dr. Rick Ciocci, an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Penn State/Harrisburg didn't miss a beat as they provided compelling information while the chaos swirled around them. Listen to the program below.
