A mysterious patch in the Pacific Ocean is defying all climate models - it is inexplicably cooling while the rest of the world is warming. Stretching off the west coast of Ecuador, this “cold tongue” challenges what we know about fundamental ocean and atmospheric currents, and has big implications for weather systems throughout the world.

After a viral study inspired a campaign to plant 20 million trees, we went to see if they survived. In this episode of Weathered, we get into the surprising origins of the trillion tree campaign, how it nearly ended the careers of the scientists behind it, and what actually works when it comes to storing carbon and tackling climate change. Spoiler: it’s not just planting trees.
New evidence suggests that West Antarctica - which holds around 5 METERS of sea level rise - is melting a lot faster than scientists once thought.

What really causes Earth’s climate to change? Some people point to natural cycles, like solar activity or orbital changes, to explain today’s warming. And they’re not entirely wrong, but they’re missing the full picture. In this episode of Weathered, we break down ice ages, CO2 feedback loops, and why today’s climate change is different from anything in Earth’s past.

Some of the fastest-growing metros in the U.S. are also the riskiest when it comes to climate change. And we’ve long puzzled: WHY? In this episode, we explore how the Great Recession, liberal housing policy and well-intentioned community decision-making have fueled our nationwide housing crisis and helped drive people to move into harm’s way.
Heat is the deadliest weather hazard in the U.S. and many places around the world, and it's only getting worse. The most deadly heat waves so far have been dry heat waves. But a new threat is rising: humid heat waves, aka wet-bulb events.

Low-lying island nations are truly ground zero when it comes to sea level rise. But, a series of studies seemed to show that many islands seemed to be GROWING, not sinking as they were predicted to do. So, what’s going on? Are islands invisible to sea level rise, and what does that mean for coastal areas around the world?
