The Weather Makers: Tim Flannery Interview

This weekend, former Vice President Al Gore's new movie on global climate change, An Inconvenient Truth, is opening at theaters across the country. But there's a new book on the subject that's also making waves. Tim Flannery is a zoologist from Sydney, Australia who's been speaking out on the need to reduce greenhouse gases. Flannery is the author of The Weather Makers: How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth. His book appears to have softened his government's long-standing skepticism about climate change. He was in Cleveland yesterday for a book-signing and he spoke with ideastream's Karen Schaefer.
