Weather’s Gone Wild: Carbon Emissions Just the Tip of the (Melting) Iceberg

[REVISIT] In light of the recent wildfires in Canada that resulted in harmful smoke shrouding much of the East Coast, we are revisiting a previously released podcast.   Extreme heatwaves, devastating floods, and raging wildfires regularly compete for news headlines.

What imminent weather events are looming on the horizon and how should we be preparing now for the potential worst-case scenario?
