Rhetorical Precis

      A member of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, a group science leaders, policy makers, and the interested public on topics of nuclear weapons and disarmament, the changing energy landscape, climate change, and emerging technologies, John Mecklin, in his interview, Jerry Brown: Climate change policy in California--and beyond, discusses the major problems facing California. He discusses with Governor Brown how the economics of controlling greenhouse gas emissions, the difficulty of gaining Republican support for climate change action, the role of religious leaders in changing public opinion on global warming, the climate change implications of California’s high-speed rail project, and the possibility that the climate could be a major issue in the 2016 elections. John Mecklin's purpose is to discuss the major issues in California in order to educate the public on major issues. He adopts a strong tone interviewing Governor Brown.
