	Description:		Ron Klain is General Counsel of Revolution LLC, an investment firm launched by AOL Co-Founder Steve Case in 2005. In addition to his private sector career, Mr. Klain has devoted considerable time to public service, most recently as White House Ebola Response Coordinator from fall 2014 to spring 2015. At the conclusion of Mr. Klain’s tenure, President Obama said that Klain had taken “on a challenge that many called insurmountable, and, in leading the team responsible for tremendous progress, helped remind the world what makes America so exceptional.” Earlier, Mr. Klain served as a senior White House aide to President Obama responsible for implementing the Recovery Act, and Chief of Staff to Vice President Joe Biden from 2009 to 2011. He has also served as Chief of Staff for Vice President Al Gore. We asked him to reflect on his time as White House Ebola Response Coordinator and on the links between climate change and the spread of dangerous diseases. Hosted by Steve Morrison. Produced by Cathryn Streifel. Edited by Bryce Thompson.
