Supreme Decisions
The US Supreme Court supports gay rights, and President Obama seeks cuts in greenhouse gas pollution
The US Supreme Court backed gay rights this week. We explore how other countries deal with issues such as gay rights and same-sex marriage. Also, President Obama jumps into the climate change conversation by calling for cuts to US greenhouse gas emissions.
We go on board the world鈥檚 largest solar-powered vehicle while it鈥檚 docked in Boston. And, we talk to a disabled American who is making a documentary film about limited accessibility in Europe. Plus, we hear about cutting edge origami techniques from an origami master living in California.
