Sept. 17, 2019: Climate Change Reporting; Frank Bruni Talks Blindness

Journalists reporting on climate change say there are nuances and intersectional issues in covering the "climate emergency." We speak with three reporters covering climate throughout the country as part of our participation in the Covering Climate Now project. Also, New York Times columnist Frank Bruni woke up one morning without sight in one eye and now he has a 20% chance of going blind entirely. Here & Now's Robin Young talks with Bruni about blindness, writing and empathy. That and more, in hour one of Here & Now's September 17, 2019 full broadcast. You can read and hear more at hereandnow.org, follow us on Twitter and join the conversation on Facebook.
