Interview: Sammy Roth follows the truth and the science in writing columns about the impact of a changing climate for the Los Angeles Times

Sammy Roth (pictured) is a climate columnist with the Los Angeles Times and a key figure in the podcast Boiling Point. In his role as a climate columnist, Sammy is a storyteller and as such has a critical and pivotal role to play in helping his readers, and of course, the broader community, address the challenges of a changing climate. Sammy follows the truth and the science of climate change when pursuing his stories, a mandate he imagines, well knows, will be increasingly important following the recent inauguration of Donald Trump as the U.S. President. The Boiling Point podcast is U.S.-centric, but much of what is happening with climate affairs in one country is applicable in another.
