E84 | What The Heck Is Global Warming & Climate Change? | An Environmental Corner Episode

If you love it, you'll give a sh*t.Climate change? Global warming? Same terms? Different? In 15 minutes, I do my best to break down what all these words mean in the common tongue; in a way that most anyone is able to understand because at the heart of it, it's a difficult topic to wrap your head around. And what's causing these phenomena? Greenhouse gasses.It's important for anyone to understand global warming and the changes it elicits, but especially for folks who love to be outside- like hikers. Global warming is not a human caused phenomena. It happens naturally, but it's increasing at an exponentially unnatural rate due to humankind.Hikers and tree huggers unite so that we can all better understand what's happening in and to our world. Knowledge is power, so let's level up and gain more power, together.*The majority of information for this episode was quote and pulled from both these NASA and National Geographic articles.
