	<title>WGTE Town Hall: Alternative Energy -</title>
	<link>http://www.wgte.org/wgte/item.asp?item_id=9338</link>
	<description><![CDATA[The Northwest Ohio region has a multitude of alternative energy stories to tell, including cutting-edge biomass fuel research being developed and tested at the University of Toledo's College of Engineering, and the activities of the many solar energy firms headquartered in the Toledo area (a legacy of Toledo's history as the nation's major glass manufacturer).&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition, Lake Erie is being considered as the site of a future wind farm to capture prevailing winds across the lower Great Lakes region.
Can alternative energy sources realistically replace our reliance on petroleum, coal and nuclear power?&nbsp; Can the Midwest take an aging rust belt industrial tradition and turn it around to manufacture solar panels and wind turbines?&nbsp; Join the discussion and post your questions for our experts to answer.<br/><br/><a href="http://www.wgte.org/wgte/store/cart_add.asp?item_id=9338">Purchase</a>]]></description>

	<link>http://www.wgte.org/wgte/item.asp?item_id=11428</link>
	<description><![CDATA[WGTE Town Hall: Elephant Care and PreservationThis town hall event, hosted by Bill Harris, examines The Toledo Zoo's mission of inspiring others to join them in caring for animals and conserving the natural world. They strive to accomplish this goal in many ways, but one of the most fascinating aspects of their work involves elephant care. A new elephant environment called the Tembo Trail blends elephant care with a unique visitor experience. What is the balance zoos must achieve between elephant care and public display? How do animal care professionals keep these intelligent animals entertained and engaged in learning activity? Who are the people who care for the elephants, making sure they are healthy in body and mind?This program is made possible by Susan L.

	<title>WGTE Town Hall: Leading in Literacy -</title>
	<link>http://www.wgte.org/wgte/item.asp?item_id=9009</link>
	<description><![CDATA[Bill Harris hosted this live program that examines one of the most pressing issues facing our community - the problem of low literacy rates among preschool aged children. Children entering school with high literacy skills are "ready to learn" and move to the head of the class. Children with weak reading skills begin school at a disadvantage, a gap that may grow wider as their educational experiece proceeds. How can we break the cycle?
