| Summary: | Presented on March 27, 2018 from 3:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m. in the Reinsch-Pierce Family Auditorium, Architecture East Building, Georgia Tech. Andrew Revkin is among a handful of journalists who’ve been locked in on the story of the century since the greenhouse effect first hit front pages and the nightly news in 1988, when science magazines still ran cigarette ads. His coverage, in media old and new, has won the top awards in science journalism, but he’ll explain why no one should count on better science coverage to produce consensus on solutions. And he’ll explain why he sees merit in embracing the full scope of the “great acceleration” scientists have identified and mixing patience with urgency on that path ahead. Runtime: 68:44 minutes Thirty years into reporting on global warming science and policy, from the North Pole to the White House, a leading environmental journalist lays out his biggest mistakes and most surprising insights and offers fresh strategies for effectively communicating climate risks and building a more sustainable relationship between people and this dynamic planet.
