Episode 105: Chris Reddy, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute

The Crux of the Story is back for another season -- our sixth -- and it is off to a terrific start. Mike Fernandez and I talk with MIT/Woods Hole scientist and award-winning communicator Christopher Reddy. Chris has been discussing high-profile ocean crises for 25 years, including the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Despite acknowledging that "science isn't built for speed," he sees crises as an opportunity for scientists and others to deliver clear, accurate and people-focused information. Listen in and then get Chris's book, "Science Communication in a Crisis."
