We talked about climate change, the Bush-Cheney administration, national preparedness, the climate research and observations budget, the NASA administrator, the National Hurricane Center, U.S. climate change regional assessment, former Surgeon General Carmona, and the Washington culture of risk aversion to speaking up and speaking out. The interview is archived on the QNN web site.
