Astronomy/Interview

Question
Hello, I am doing a project for school, and an inteview is required for it. My topic is climate change, do you think we could set up an interview?

Answer
I have no objections to an interview but first I'd like to know the basis for it: HOW conducted, number of questions, etc.

If it amounts to 100 questions, all to be answered in written form, then it is impractical.

10 questions, perhaps - provided the questions are not too lengthy and/or convoluted.

Telephone, no - because experts are not allowed to give out their numbers nor can we call questioners. So everything must be done via this medium.

E-mail is another possibility. Let me know.
