A Meteorologist Goes to Washington


Listen Later

Guests: Rep. Eric Sorensen


Introduction: In the United States, our congressional representatives and senators play an important role in how the conversation and actions on climate change occur in our country. Yet, for the most part, those same individuals don’t have a background rooted in meteorology or climate sciences. Representative Eric Sorensen seeks to change that and become the first meteorologist to serve in congress in nearly 50 years. He’s joining us today to discuss how his career transitioned from a broadcast meteorologist to politician and how and where he hopes to see the congressional conversation on climate change move. Congressman, thank you for joining us today!
