The environmental segments There is no Charlie Rose show without Charlie Rose, February 5, 2008
This review is from: Charlie Rose with David Ensor; Graham Fuller, Milton Bearden & Robert Baer; Michael Lemonick; Gray Davis; Andrew Revkin, Jeffrey Kluger & Fred Guteri (July 10, 2002) (DVD)
This show highlights how much the Charlie Rose show needs Charlie Rose. Michael Lemonick speaks with then Califorian Governor Gray Davis on his proposal to reduce auto- emissions and to force Detroit to new more enviromentally sound technology. Then Lemonick holds a panel discussion with colleagues Andrew Revkin of the New York Times,, Jeffrey Kluger of Time and Fred Guteri of Newsweek. This discussion is slow and boring with a final round having each of the respondents estimate where we will be on Global Warming in ten or twenty years from now. All assert that Global Warming is real. Revkin mocks the Bush Administration for being so slow to come around to that position. They do not however take extreme positions and see earth- threatening disaster ahead. In fact they mention certain scientific work being done to more precisely know how damaging the global- warming will be, and what measures can be taken to modify it.
The discussion is dull. And it is a reminder of how good Charlie Rose is. He makes each and every discussion he hosts come to life. He does this by his enthusiastic interest, by his always having the right and key questions ready. His caring, conviction and intelligence make the show what it is .
