Having Ears To Hear

It's interesting: as climate science becomes ever more certain about anthropogenic global warming, the public — more so here in the U.S. but also abroad — becomes more skeptical. People really don't like bad news. To get at the science/public interface I turned to Bud Ward, editor of the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media. It was great to talk with Bud and I hope the message gets delivered, though, to be honest, I'm not optimistic. Total runtime one hour. Prepare for the worst!
