We are celebrating the sixth anniversary of Citizens’ Climate Radio, and a big theme you will hear in this episode is about breakthroughs and transformations. From the very beginning, Citizens’ Climate Lobby’s mission has been to create the political will for a livable world by enabling individual breakthroughs in the exercise of personal and political power. That was definitely the theme in the very first interviews Citizens Climate Radio’s host, Peterson Toscano, conducted with Marshall Saunders, founder of CCL, and Mark Reynolds, the organization’s first executive director.
