Come visit the new University of Delaware’s simin Second Life for a live simulcast from the series on Global Agenda 2008/Boiling Point: International Politics of Climate Change

Controversy over global warming extends to a debate over how the media are handling the issue. Do the media “cry wolf” or do they accurately reflect scientific and political discussions about climate change? What role do the media play in making political decisions about climate change, both domestically and internationally.

Moderated by former CNN world affairs correspondent and UD distinguished journalist in residence Ralph Begleiter.
