Thoughtful and interesting interview with Harvard climate scientist James G. Anderson.
This week, Anderson lucidly explains why "global warming" is a bad term to use (it understates the problem's scope and severity). He makes short work of the claim that climate change is natural, not man-made. And he has interesting things to say about the ozone layer ... the Kyoto Protocol ... and why electricity is the best fuel, not only for transportation but for heating too.
Plus a song by David Rovics.
Thanks to Dale Lehman (WZRD, Chicago) for publishing (and maybe conducting) the recorded interview--which I have gently edited and condensed.
