The Green Compass Season 3

Audio Documentary The Green Compass

“Exploring the road to a better Pittsburgh – Where we are and where we are going.”

Twenty-six students about to enter their first year of college (and two older college students) created these radio features as Summer Interns at The Heinz Endowments. Because the Summer 2011 internship program focused on issues of sustainability, the resulting features cover a range of community and environmental issues. While SLB provided training and coaching, the features presented here were conceived and created entirely by the students in a single week.
