I helped record an interview between University of Kentucky student Tate White and Dr. Michael Oppenheimer yesterday to hear his thoughts on the role of higher education in addressing climate change. Dr. Oppenheimer is a leading scholar on global warming and has participated actively on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as one of the co-authors of the Fourth Assessment Report. He has been featured in numerous television interviews as far and wide as the Oprah Winfrey show, to the Colbert Nation.

Listen as Dr. Oppenheimer gives his thoughts on climate change, student green fees, coal, and the important role students can play on campus.
