Covering Climate Change: Justin Gillis

Few journalists have studied the issue of global warming with the thoroughness of The New York TimesJustin Gillis, who has raised hackles by comparing global warming skeptics to opponents of evolution. Now, Time magazine editor-at-large David Von Drehle holds a public conversation with Gillis about Covering Climate Change. Gillis, who reports and blogs on the environment for the Times, warns that “the hour is late … To head off the worst consequences of global warming, we needed to get started 20 years ago and we did not. If we started today it would be hard, and we’re not starting today.” Dateline: Washington is co-presented by the Kansas City Public Library and the Truman Library Institute. The series is made possible by grants from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation Legacy Fund.
