WRT your interview on The Hill TV -- I'm really happy that you had the courage to get in front of an obviously unfriendly audience. Next time I would encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity to tell people who probably don't agree with you on most climate-change related topics what you would ask/tell this administration to do differently. The listeners/viewers will probably still fry you but perhaps it will generate some discussion about a step you would advocate, even if that step isn't a game changer. For example - asking the administration to stop the censorship of climate change information on federal websites and simply accept that climate change is real and is largely a result of human actions (as proven by innumerable studies). The administration won't do it, of course, but at least the viewers would have to defend that position instead of simply tearing down your bona fides by claiming you can't come up with anything to even say to this administration.
Absolutely, if I could go back I would do that. I couldn't see the guy who asked me the question so I wasn't entirely aware the question was from an antagonistic POV
Also, I should note, I didn't know he was even going to be there until the interview began. Marianne asked me on and I assumed it would just be a conversation between the two of us
Another great post. Thanks for sharing.
