Bill Blakemore has spearheaded ABC's coverage of global warming, traveling from tropic to polar regions to report on the impacts of climate change and possible solutions for it. He has also helped create ABC's multiplatform exploration of global warming in TV, Internet and print formats, and hosts ABC’s “Nature’s Edge.” Blakemore has been a reporter for ABC News for more than 40 years, covering a dozen wars and major conflicts, was ABC’s Rome Bureau Chief 1978-1984, and has continued to travel widely as a domestic and foreign correspondent for a wide variety of other stories in politics, the arts, nature and science -- and now global warming and other narratives involving the love-hate relationship between nature and man. A former literature teacher at the American University of Beirut, Blakemore is a graduate of Wesleyan University in Connecticut and a native of Chicago. He has served on the faculty and committees of the St. Louis-based American Youth Foundation. In 1986 he was elected a trustee of Wesleyan University. He often speaks on the principles of journalism and on “The Many Psychologies of Global Warming.”
