Audio: Michael Mann on Ken Cuccinelli’s “Climategate” Investigation

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli’s crusade against climate science was dealt a setback today after a judge denied his attempt to subpoena documents relating to former University of Virginia climate scientist, Michael Mann. Need to Know’s Alison Stewart spoke with Mann about the dangerous precedent the Cucinelli’s case could have set and about what he calls the climate change denial “industry.”

This podcast was produced by Need to Know as part of the Climate Desk collaboration.
