<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Calibri>Those programmes sound very interesting, and on
vitally important topics deserving of attention, but can you confirm whether
they have taken an editorial approach that makes them okay to broadcast without
falling foul of the law? As you'll know, the Broadcasting Act
probibits radio stations from on-air campaigning or advertising campaigns
on matters of politics or public controversy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Calibri>From a podcast I've listened to on Climate
Radio the programme and presenter seem to take a very clear stand and
urge direct political action - perfectly valid to do that, and okay for a
podcast, but it didn't sound likely to be legally compliant for a UK
broadcaster. Will the four specials be designed to be broadcastable without
problems?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Dear Community Media Association members,</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><BR>Resonance FM is pleased to be able to offer four special 60-minute
programmes on climate change produced for us by journalist Phil England of
Climate Radio with support from the Network for Social Change.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>In these four programmes, Climate Radio - whose productions have been
globally praised - will take a look at some of the big initiatives that are
underway which have the potential to make big changes in the battle to retain
climate stability. These will include: </DIV>
<DIV>
<UL>
<LI>the divestment campaign which is transforming the economics of
energy;
<LI>the campaign to kick corporate influence out of our democracy and the
need for civil disobedience;
<LI>the movement for food sovereignty; and
<LI>ending subsidies for fossil fuels.</LI></UL></DIV>
<DIV>The last series included interviews with scientists, campaigners from
Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, <A href="http://350.org"
target=_blank>350.org</A>, and Green Party leader Natalie Bennett amongst
others. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Check out Climate Radio's monthly programmes in 2013 to get an idea of
the quality of the expert testimony that the producer is able to
gather: <A href="http://climateradio.org/category/climateradio/"

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Resonance will be broadcasting these programmes on Tuesdays during March
(3rd, 10th, 17th & 24th) and the programmes will be available for download
from noon on the four consecutive Tuesdays starting March 3rd from a platform
to be announced.</DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If you would like to incorporate these programmes into your March
broadcast schedule - please send an email to <B><A
href="mailto:info@climateradio.org"
target=_blank>info@climateradio.org</A></B> and the producer will keep you
informed of further details.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best wishes,</DIV>
