February 7, 2006—CBS Radio has announced the launch of 94.7 The Globe, its first “green” focused radio station. The Washington D.C. station will operate using renewable energy to power its 50,000 watt signal.
Additionally, station vehicles will be replaced with hybrid models, and 94.7 The Globe will further its “green” focus by taking a number of steps on and off-air to consistently promote ways for listeners to live an eco-friendly lifestyle.
A new Web site has also been created for The Globe featuring station news and environmental resources. Listeners can log on for more information and to listen to the online stream.
The station will celebrate Earth Day with an annual concert, and will have host events encouraging recycling, tree planting and use of green products.
