Podcasts about climate change impacts

A new University of California report warns that dust storms—intensified by climate change—are threatening crops, livestock, and labor productivity. The study outlines both the causes and the consequences for the nation's top agricultural producer.

When think about climate change, we may think about global temperatures escalating, extreme weather events occurring more and more and sea levels rising. But what effect is all of this actually having on the everyday lives of the world's population, especially those that are most vulnerable? In this episode, we speak to Dr Friederike Otto about her latest book Climate Injustice: Why We Need to Fight Global Inequality to Combat Climate Change. She tells us how facts and evidence and are vital if we want to combat the effects of climate change on the world's poorest populations, how the historical effects of inequality are deeply ingrained in the issue, and why the future doesn't have to be as bleak as some may say.

The number of people exposed to floods globally has surged by nearly 25 percent since 2000, with Africa experiencing the most dramatic increase. Floods this spring were especially brutal in East Africa, killing nearly 530 people and most heavily impacting Kenya. On today's episode of the Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women, we analyze the relationship between climate and gender equality. Host Reena Ninan begins by hearing from Nairobi-based reporter Eunice Maina, who spoke with a family deeply impacted by the spring floods. They dig deeper into how these floods and climate change in general disproportionately affect women and children. Then, Ninan speaks with Tariye Gbadegesin, the CEO of the Climate Investment Funds. It is one of the world's largest multilateral climate funds, and a significant portion of their work targets women and girls. We recorded this interview during the annual World Bank-International Monetary Fund meetings in October. Guests and organizations:  Eunice Maina, journalist based in Nairobi, Kenya.

Rebuilding fisheries requires information on fisheries stock assessments for each species. Collecting that data is not easy; it takes time and money to do. The Canadian Government is mandated to gather information on the 200 commercially fished species, but it's lacking. Not to worry. Ocean Canada has taken on the burden to collect and presenting the fisheries information in their Annual Fisheries Audit.  In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin interviews Rebecca Schijns, a fisheries scientist with Oceana Canada, to discuss the findings of the 8th Annual Fisheries Audit. The audit aims to assess the health of Canadian fish populations and the effectiveness of fisheries management. Key Highlights from the Audit: Current Status of Fish Populations: Just over one-third (35%) of Canadian fish populations are assessed as healthy, an improvement from less than a third in the previous year. Approximately 34.5% of fish stocks are in an uncertain status, lacking defined benchmarks for sustainable fishing. The remaining stocks are categorized as follows: 13% in the cautious zone 17% in the critically depleted zone Importance of Audits: Oceana Canada began conducting these audits in 2017 due to a lack of clear data on fishery health. The audits compile publicly available government documents, stock assessments, and management plans to create a comprehensive overview of fishery status. Positive Developments: High-quality rebuilding plans have been developed for several critically depleted stocks, including mackerel and cod, with timelines for recovery. Increased consideration of climate change impacts in scientific advice and management decisions. A slight decrease in the number of stocks in the critical zone, indicating progress in stock assessments. Concerns and Challenges: Despite the positive developments, there is a slow rollout of the Fisheries Act regulations, with only 30 out of nearly 200 fish stocks currently covered. The reopening of the cod fishery and increased quotas for capelin have raised concerns about overfishing, especially given the stocks' precarious status. The episode highlights the need for stronger leadership and accountability in fisheries management to ensure sustainable practices. Call to Action: Rebecca emphasizes the importance of citizen engagement in fisheries management, encouraging listeners to stay informed and advocate for sustainable practices. Oceana Canada aims to depoliticize fisheries management by promoting strong laws and regulations that can withstand political changes. The episode concludes with a hopeful outlook for the future of Canadian fisheries, stressing the importance of collaboration and informed decision-making to achieve sustainable fish populations.

Weather patterns like extreme temperatures, and rainfall, can have dire consequences for farming and ranching. A new report details how this will affect Montana's agriculture economy.

You might not think that climate change is impacting us because temperatures fluctuate throughout the year, but with more heatwave days measured in a year compared to a decade before, impacting those who are more susceptible such as babies and the elderly. Climate change is also impacting food and water security, and the poorer proportion of the global population will be adversely affected as a result.

What do you think? Send us a textToday we're doing something different. We're devoting this episode to last weekend's huge rain, the flooding and other disasters it spawned, and the climate migrants who will emerge from these incidents. And here I'd like to give my condolences to the family and friends of the more than 200 people confirmed killed in the devastation. I know: last week I guaranteed we would share the episode about the nurse migrating to Canada but I thought the topic of climate migration — which I've been wanting to discuss for a while — was just too timely to postpone. This episode also has a different format. I have two guests: Sagar Shrestha, Director of the Disaster Management Department at the Nepal Red Cross Society and Manjeet Dhakal, Head of the LDC Support Team and Director, at the South Asia office of Climate Analytics. I recorded this very quickly so the first chat with Sagar, which we did Sunday night, lacks the usual introduction and goodbye, and the quality is not quite up to our usual standard. I recorded with Manjeet on Monday evening. He was in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan, so the line wasn't crystal clear either. One note: Unfortunately, since Monday the number of confirmed deaths has risen to 209, as I'm recording on Tuesday, and dozens more people are still missingSend us feedback and ideas. We'll respond to every message:LinkedInInstagramFacebookVoicemailMusic by audionautix.com.Thank you to Himal Media in Patan Dhoka for the use of their studio.

When I think about my daughter's future, I also worry about whether she'll have access to necessities like clean water, clean air, fresh foods in the upcoming years. These worries can be categorised as eco anxiety and probably you also have such thoughts. The question is what we can do for a sustainable earth for our kids.Did you know that anxieties related to the environment are more common in women? Or that there are many other ways by which environmental change impacts women's mental health disproportionately? Do you want to know how? And how we can be a little kinder to earth everyday? All this is discussed in today's episode with Bhagyashree Jain, the founder of The Disposal Company. She was named in the coveted Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia list of 2024 for her pioneering work in introducing Plastic Neutrality in India and creating sustainability solutions.Bhagyashre's venture is helping brands become plastic neutral. The Disposal Company helps companies offset plastic they have created and used by recovering or removing an equivalent amount from the environment and recycling it.All these insights are available to you for free so I am giving you the responsibility of spreading word about the podcast.

From Maine to Florida, coastal units of the National Park System are being impacted in various ways by the changing climate. Some of the impacts affect wildlife, some natural resources, and some the human populations who either live in or come to visit these beautiful areas. At the National Parks Traveler. We've been working on a series of stories looking at these changes that are showing up. In recent shows we've discussed impacts to manatees that live in the waters of Everglades and Biscayne national parks as well as Cumberland Island National Seashore, and how sea level rise is impacting salt marshes that are vital for wildlife and which serve as buffers to hurricanes and tropical storms. At Acadia National Park in Maine, the impacts are materializing in various ways.  Rainstorms are becoming heavier and more damaging, invasive species such as the Asian shore crab are showing up in the waters of Frenchman Bay, and the number of bird species that winter on Mount Desert Island have decreased. To take a closer look at these changes, we're joined by Nick Fisichelli, the president and CEO of the Schoodic Institute, a nonprofit science center based on the national park's Schoodic Peninsula to discuss some of the impacts that have arrived and the research being done to better understand them. 

This episode of FreightWaves Now's Community Spotlight dives into the world of cold chain logistics with a focus on how climate change is impacting this industry. Mary O'Connell speaks with Fred Woo, a meteorologist, about the concept of vulnerability as it applies to goods, not just people. Climate change is causing more extreme weather events, which can lead to spoilage of goods being transported in the cold chain. This can have a significant economic impact on businesses. The discussion also covers how cold chain logistics providers can mitigate these risks by using technologies and strategies to maintain consistent temperatures for goods regardless of the weather conditions. Watch to learn more about the challenges and solutions in cold chain logistics in the face of climate change.

In this Convo of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Andy Lipkis, Founder of TreePeople, who served as President for five decades. He is currently a Project Executive at Accelerate Resilience LA (ARLA). Andy is a pioneer of urban and community forestry, urban watershed management, and urban climate resilience, dedicating his life to healing the environment while improving the lives of individuals and communities.Andy grew up in southwest LA and began planting trees to rehabilitate smog and fire damaged Los Angeles–area forests when he was 15 years old. At 18, he founded TreePeople, bringing together people, trees, and forest-inspired ‘green infrastructure' to protect cities against droughts and floods, prevent water and air pollution, and mitigate and adapt to climate change. Andy served as a consultant to the City of Los Angeles as a program planner and public engagement and education facilitator. TreePeople's work in LA provided a model for environmental, economic, and social sustainability in cities everywhere. He created a greener future for Los Angeles by inspiring people, along with their local governments, to plant and care for trees and harvest and conserve the rain. Since its founding, TreePeople volunteers have been responsible for the planting of more than 2 million trees and counting. Its environmental education program reaches more than 200,000 students per year, with millions of children touched over the decades.With climate change impacts already creating a chronic emergency for cities around the world, Andy's work has demonstrated promising new ways for individuals, communities and government agencies to collaboratively reshape urban tree canopy and water infrastructure to save lives and grow a more livable future. After retiring from TreePeople in 2019, Andy launched Accelerate Resilience LA, a fiscally sponsored project of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors to inspire and enable people and local governments to equitably accelerate climate resilience in Los Angeles.He shares with Ted that his personal mission is to inform, inspire, engage, and support people and communities to participate in restoring the healthy functioning of an ecosystem so it can abundantly provide life support services. He highlights the power of individuals and communities to make a positive impact, and the great need that exists to heal our environment. He and Ted discuss the numerous programs that increased citizen involvement in urban tree planting and care, which led him to being recognized by Johnny Carson.

Along 1,600 miles of the Eastern Seaboard, from Maine to Florida, sea level rise, subsidence, and more potent storms are challenging the National Park Service to figure out how best to protect wildlife and their habitats, as well as historic structures, archaeological sites, modern infrastructure, landscapes, and, of course, visitors. In the coming months, the National Parks Traveler will be examining impacts tied to climate change and how the National Park Service is responding to them. We'll bring you the concerns of residents and communities that are left with the damage from hurricanes and the loss of tax revenues from tourism and trace the strain these events have on the Park Service staff and budget. We'll also talk to experts about how natural landscapes, such as barrier reefs and salt marshes, and wildlife are being impacted. We're going to have one of those conversations today with two experts from The Nature Conservancy: Dr. Alison Branco, TNC's Climate Adaptation Director, and Dr. Nicole Maher, the organization's Senior Coastal Scientist.

How climate change impacts mental health, and a solution called ‘ecotherapy.' Understanding the Israel-Palestine conflict. A 106-year-old dismantles aging stereotypes. How Climate Change Impacts Mental Health Among the list of things that give young people anxiety and stress, one might not think climate change would rank that high on the list, but it is. Students, school counselors and even the state are taking notice of what some call “climate distress” or “eco-anxiety” and the impact on mental health. Shreya Agrawal is a health reporting intern with CalMatters and joins us with some ways young people are dealing with this kind of stress on the grassroots level all the way to something called “ecotherapy.” Understanding the Israel-Palestine Conflict It's been almost a week since brutal fighting broke out in Israel after attacks by Hamas, and retaliatory Israeli airstrikes devastated the blockaded Gaza Strip. The deadly events mark the latest phase of a conflict that stretches back decades. Sac State professors Harvey Stark and Sahar Razavi talk about the context and nuances that underlie the current situation, and how an upcoming roundtable hosted by Razavi and Stark aims to educate and support students here in Sacramento affected by these heartbreaking events. The roundtable will be held at Sac State on Tue. Oct. 17 from 5:30 - 7pm at the Union Ballroom.  106-year-old Dismantles Aging Stereotypes CapRadio's new podcast “This is What it Feels Like” has a simple, open-ended premise: In a world that feels more divided than ever, put yourself in the shoes of everyday people at the center of issues often overlooked or politicized by society. It's not simple. It's not black and white. The newest episode features a 106-year-old woman named Glenna to dismantle and give a deeper understanding about aging. Joining Glenna in the podcast are granddaughters Cassie and Sarah. Glenna passed away shortly after her 107th birthday, surrounded by family. Cassie Zook joins Insight to discuss the power of intergenerational relationships, and how her grandmother shaped how she lives her life and her views on the aging process. 

The Weather Guys are back to help us celebrate the autumnal equinox, when days become shorter than nights. We'll also talk with them about hurricanes, the drought, a satellite that tracks air pollution and more.

In this episode, I dive into the question of whether Environmental Activism works to change the minds of people and/or governments. I use the organization called Just Stop Oil as an example because its members have been making headlines in the news, on opinion shows, and in videos all over social media. Many of the clips show angry people who are affected by the protests from the organization. The organization has a purpose of getting the government to stop its support of the fossil fuel industry by not approving any new oil and gas projects in the UK. Tune in to hear Andrew provide examples of organizations and individuals who have used activism to inspire millions and other organizations that have not been very successful.  I want to note that I hope to have a representative from Just Stop Oil on the podcast to ask them how they plan to invoke an action from the UK government through their protests as well as other strategies.

Just in time for Shark Week, we're going down under to investigate what warming waters will do to the distribution of tiger sharks on the east coast of Australia with tiger shark expert, Dr. Yuri Niella! This week we break down Dr. Yuri Niella et al. (2021) article, "Forecasting intraspecific changes in distribution of a wide-ranging marine predator under climate change." Article Summary: (modified abstract) Climate change is causing animal distributions to shift in response to changing temperatures. Typically shifts in these behaviors are evaluated at the species level, but in this study, Nuriella et al. studied behavioral shifts at the individual level. They investigated 115 tiger sharks, Galeocerdo cuvier, from 2002 to 2020, and evaluated how behavior and distribution differed between sex and maturation class (meaning, juveniles or adults). With this long-term data set, Nuriella et al. modeled how behavior and distribution may continue to change in tiger sharks to 2030, and included environmental factoers and predicted occurence of potential prey. Generalised Linear and Additive Models revealed that water temperature change, particularly at higher latitudes, was the factor most associated with shark movements. Females dispersed southwards during periods of warming temperatures, and while juvenile females preferred a narrow thermal range between 22 and 23 °C, adult female and juvenile male presence was correlated with either lower (23 °C) temperatures. During La Niña, sharks moved towards higher latitudes and used shallower isobaths. Inclusion of predicted distribution of their putative prey signifcantly improved projections of suitable habitats for all shark classes, compared to simpler models using temperature alone. Tiger shark range of the east coast of Australia is predicted to extend~3.5° south towards the east coast of Tasmania, particularly for juvenile males. This study will assist in evaluating the consequences of climate change to species distribution.

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. These shifts may be natural, such as through variations in the solar cycle. But since the 1800's, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. Climate change has the potential to negatively impact the nutrient value of plants, soil organisms, food stuffs, via a variety of ways. Climate change puts food supplies at risk. Floods, droughts, more intense hurricanes, heatwaves and wildfires can drive down crop yields, destroy livestock, and interfere with the transport of food. And rising carbon dioxide levels from human activity can make staple crops like rice and wheat less nutritious. In this podcast the Sigma team take a look at the evidence on how climate change will impact nutrient status, if left unchecked. There will be also a look at what solutions have been put forward to tackle this issue. This episode will focus more on how climate change impacts nutritional & nutrient status, as opposed to converse (but equally important) issue of how food systems impact climate change.
