ICN Sunday Morning: The Reality of a Rapidly Warming World

from Inside Climate News Audio · host Inside Climate News

Go behind the scenes with executive editor Vernon Loeb and science reporter Bob Berwyn as they discuss the latest reports on relentless human-caused global warming. Several new climate reports released this week indicate “an unprecedented run of global heat” in 2025, especially in the oceans and at the poles. Ten years ago, the signers of the Paris Climate Accord sought to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial temperatures. But at today’s pace of emissions, scientists say, the world is on track to hit that limit permanently by the end of this decade, sooner than expected when the deal was signed.Bob breaks down what this data means in practical terms, the threats to systems that sustain human societies, and how warming is colliding with the basic machinery of modern life.
