Verify Road Trip: A Climate Skeptic's Journey to Understanding Scientific Consensus
Verify Road Trip is a compelling documentary that follows journalist David Schechter and a climate skeptic as they journey across the United States to explore the scientific evidence of climate change, culminating in a visit to Alaska’s rapidly melting glaciers.
Many call climate change the defining crisis of our time. In Texas, where we live, climate change is making heat waves hotter, hurricanes stronger, and droughts last longer. And yet 35% of Texans don’t think it’s happening or are unsure. In this documentary, reporter David Schechter invited a skeptic to re-examine his understanding of climate change. Justin Fain is a 38-year-old roofer from Dallas who’s politically conservative. He participated in an epic reporting trip across Texas and Alaska. Over the course of 8 days, Justin saw everything David saw, asked his questions, and reached his conclusions.
