M: Today, as our guest on Student Radio Westmark is student organizer and well-known Biology major and activist, Adeline Reed. Adeline, welcome to the show.
W: Thank you. I am glad to be here.
M: First, can you give us some ideas about your work?
W: Well, [9]we’ve been trying to pressure the local government to resume funding of its recycling center. As you may know, they cut off funding to the main plant. Our group, Restoring Recycling Radars (or RRR), called for funding. [9]We hope to succeed in not only getting the funding restored, but also increased.
M: Since you have repeatedly said in the previous interview in the newspapers that the city government doesn’t care about this. So my question is why would they listen to your group?
W: Well, [10] we’ve been advocating these issues for a long time and now the council is pretty split on this issue. So a push in the right direction couldn’t hurt.
M: Any light, so far, at the end of the tunnel?
W: Plenty. [11]The council wasn’t happy about the garbage we dumped on the City Hall lawn, but they got the message. Now, they’re reviewing their actions and voting tomorrow in a special council meeting.
M: Well, thanks for that briefing and it was a pleasure once again to talk with you. Stay tuned now for some fine tunes from our DJ, so don’t touch that dial!
