Making sense of climate change

Revkin, an environment reporter for the New York Times, is author of three books on environment. Revkin's reporting on global warming has taken him not just the Arctic but also the halls of the White House, to research centers trying to refine energy sources that produce no pollution, and to many other spots around the globe. His stories reveal efforts by political appointees to rewrite government climate reports and limit media access to climate scientists triggered reviews of communications policies at a dozen government agencies.
