About Me

Cynthia Linton
I teach journalism at Northwestern, including environment reporting and writing. My concern about the world we are leaving our children and grandchildren spurred me to learn more about global warming and share what I learn. As time passes with little improvement, I am especially focused on U.S. government action and international negotiations for a new climate treaty. You can contact me at climatepolitix@aol.com.
