WAMC's Dr. Alan Chartock discusses the importance of recognizing climate change, and comments on the ongoing negotiations over President Joe Biden's infrastructure agenda. Dr. Chartock also reflects on the abundance of misinformation about COVID-19 on social media, and considers whether the government or companies like Facebook can do anything about it. 

Dr. Alan Chartock is professor emeritus at the University at Albany. He hosts the weekly Capitol Connection series, heard on public radio stations around New York. The program, for almost 12 years, highlighted interviews with Governor Mario Cuomo and now continues with conversations with state political leaders. Dr. Chartock also appears each week on The Media Project and The Roundtable and offers commentary on Morning Edition, weekdays at 7:40 a.m.
