What's a Few Degrees?
Manage episode 316484112 series 7331
Brace yourself for heatwave “Lucifer.” Dangerous deadly heatwaves may soon be so common that we give them names, just like hurricanes. This is one of the dramatic consequences of just a few degrees rise in average temperatures.
Also coming: Massive heat “blobs” that form in the oceans and damage marine life, and powerful windstorms called “derechos” pummeling the Midwest.
Plus, are fungal pathogens adapting to hotter temperatures and breaching the 98.6 F thermal barrier that keeps them from infecting us?
Guests:
- Kathy Baughman McLeod – director and senior vice president of the Adrienne Arsht-Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Center at The Atlantic Council
- Pippa Moore – Marine ecologist at Newcastle University in the U.K.
- Ted Derouin – Michigan farmer
- Jeff Dukes – Ecologist and director of Purdue Climate Change Research Center at Purdue University.
- Arturo Casadevall – Molecular microbiologist and immunologist at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
