The climate is changing
Long-time listeners may have heard about as much as they could care about the multi-discipline research studies and the multitude of concerning data points. The record-breaking temperatures, the dire predictions, warnings, and alarms being sounded.
Some might recall the transition of talking about global warming to define it as climate change and the unsuccessfully attempted rebranding of climate change to Climate-ya.
But for anyone who has had enough of it, unfortunately, there is more to come.
Because while the past few decades have illustrated the source, scale, and scope of the problem.
What comes next is the age of consequences.
And like any consequence,
Seen or unforeseen,
There is always a desire to avoid them.
And a regret for not having done so sooner.
Be that as it may,
You can’t unring a bell,
The time for action has flown the coop,
As all the climate chickens come home to roost.
Whenever facing consequences,
It is important to keep your chin up,
your feet on the ground,
and your ears peeled for the sound of,
This Week in Science.
Some quick science news!
