"To the Point", a daily radio program of KCRW in Santa Monica, CA, produced a segment called "The Consequences of Climate Change and the Cost of Denial" on 14 August 2012.

The host, Warran Olney, led a discussion with his guests about the current state of climate science, the political and cultural impediments to meeting the challenge in the United States, the need for action, and also the example that Germany’s climate change and renewable energy policies may hold for the United States.

Dominic Marcellino, Fellow at Ecologic Institute Washington DC, was asked on the program and provided insights into Germany’s overarching renewable energy policy, the role of the feed-in tariff, and how Germany met 50% of its electricity needs on several days this year. The other panelists were: Bill McKibben, the environmental advocate and author, Kevin Trenberth, of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, and Anthony Leiserowitz, of Yale University.
