Bob Schieffer, please cover climate change on @FaceTheNation
Dear Mr. Schieffer,
Between 2009 and 2011, your premier Sunday news program spent only 4 minutes discussing the urgent issue of climate change. The country needs better from our news programming. Please start covering this issue on a regular basis and including respected climate policy experts among your panelists.
Thank you.

Why is this important?
From 2009 to 2011, Bob Schieffer's Sunday talk show on CBS, Face the Nation, covered climate change for a total of 4 minutes. Four minutes in three years. The country needs to hear about the biggest challenge our society faces and it's no longer acceptable that we can learn nothing about it on one of the nation's premier news programs.
