Demystifying Sea Level Rise, with Robert Kopp of Rutgers University

Host Daniel Raimi talks with Dr. Robert Kopp—Director of the Rutgers Institute of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, a professor at Rutgers University, and co-director at the Climate Impact Lab—about sea level rise. They discuss the latest update on how a changing climate will affect sea levels, and where the major uncertainties lie. Daniel will also ask Robert how he responds when people ask a common question posed of climate scientists: “are we doomed?” References and recommendations made by Robert Kopp: "We Need Courage, Not Hope, To Face Climate Change" by Kate Marvel; https://onbeing.org/blog/kate-marvel-we-need-courage-not-hope-to-face-climate-change/ "The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History" by Elizabeth Kolbert; https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17910054-the-sixth-extinction "New York 2140" by Kim Stanley Robinson; https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29570143-new-york-2140
