The year 2024 ended with a sobering milestone: it was officially the hottest year ever recorded. That pattern of extremes continues around the world, especially in Southern California, which is suffering from one of its worst disasters in history. First responders are battling lethal wildfires that have consumed more than 12,000 buildings and homes, and forced more than 100,000 people to evacuate.  But beyond these headlines about rising temperatures and intensifying disasters lies a critical question: How can we better predict and prepare for extreme weather events in a warming world? Recent breakthroughs in AI-powered weather forecasting have produced new models that not only match but sometimes outperform traditional prediction systems. These advances couldn't come at a more crucial time – in 2023 alone, the US suffered $95 billion in damages from 28 separate extreme weather events. So, how do we ensure these powerful new tools reach the communities that need them most? How can advances in weather forecasting enhance energy resiliency? And what role should public agencies play as private companies push the boundaries of prediction technology? This week host Bill Loveless talks with Alice Hill and Colin McCormick about AI in weather forecasting. Together, they authored a chapter on extreme weather response in the Innovation for Cool Earth Forum's report Artificial Intelligence for Climate Change Mitigation Roadmap.  Alice is the David M. Rubenstein senior fellow for energy and the environment at the Council on Foreign Relations. She previously served as special assistant to President Obama and senior director for resilience policy on the National Security Council. Colin is a principal scientist at Carbon Direct, where he provides expertise across carbon removal methods and industrial decarbonization. He previously served as senior advisor for R&D at the US Department of Energy. He is currently an adjunct professor at Georgetown University's Walsh School of Foreign Service.

In January of 2023, a headline from Boston Consulting Group read: The voluntary carbon market [VCM] is thriving. Their evidence? A 4-fold increase in the value of the market in the course of a year, to a valuation over $2 billion USD and growing. Nine months later, Reuters headlined a very different take: Carbon credit market confidence ebbs as big names retreat, citing the first dip in the number of credits used by companies in at least 7 years. What was causing such rapid growth in the VCM? What caused the decline? And, what is the chance of the VCM recovering? In the final episode of our 3 part examination of VCMs, we take a look at how these markets have evolved in terms of their growth and their efficacy, how they are operating right now, and what their future could look like. To shape our conversation, we are joined by a group of VCM buyers, sellers, consultants and skeptics: Katie Sierks (Microsoft), Laura Zapata (Clearloop), Dr. Colin McCormick and Alex Dolginow (Carbon Direct), and Dr. Joe Romm (Penn Center for Science, Sustainability, and the Media).Follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.Contact us at contact@climatenow.comVisit our website for all of our content and sources for each episode.

The voluntary carbon offset market (VCM) – in which customers can pay for third-parties to avoid emitting CO2 or remove it from the atmosphere on their behalf – has existed for over 30 years, and has been controversial for nearly as long. On the one hand, the VCM can provide a path for hard-to-decarbonize sectors or businesses to reach net-zero emissions goals, and it can help finance development of important carbon removal technologies, like direct air capture. On the other hand, the market is rife with opportunities for exploitation and the sale of ineffective carbon credits.In the first of a three-part episode exploring the current and future state of the voluntary carbon offset market, Climate Now is joined by Dr. Colin McCormick, Alex Dolginow, Derik Broekhoff and Dr. Mark Trexler – four experts in the VCM space, to examine why it is so difficult to create an effective and reliable carbon offset market, and whether there is a path forward for doing so.

Alumni Colin McCormick and Itzel Toro Garza stopped by to chat with us before heading back to college in Chicago and Rochester, NY, respectively. These Global Scholars are indeed using the world as their laboratory, engaging in higher-level study of international politics and English and both preparing to attend graduate school next year. In this episode, they share what was most meaningful to them during their time at #ChattState, as well as how the education they got here prepared them for transferring to a 4-year institution. They share lessons learned for future students making that transfer, too. Want to share your #TigerStory? Get in touch! You can email us at cstigerstories@gmail.com. We'll have another episode for you next week! In the meantime, catch up on our previous episodes or see other ways that at Chattanooga State, we believe that belonging matters. http://www.chattanoogastate.edu/belongingmatters

Two former students, Colin McCormick and Itzel Garcia, were visiting just before classes started up again in August. I hustled them into a recording studio and made Colin tell me about his incredible experiences this summer. While Colin studies international relations at DePaul University in Chicago during the school year, he makes a compelling case in this conversation that to REALLY understand what's happening somewhere in the world, you really need to go there and meet the people. Colin mentioned reporting in August about Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar having been denied entry into Israel. Here's a link to remind yourself what happened: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rashida-tlaib-ilhan-omar-israel-bars-entry-to-outspoken-us-congresswomen-netanyahu-says/ We also discussed a book called "The Lemon Tree," by Sandy Tolvar. You can get a copy here: https://amzn.to/2LG7wit Read the author's reflection on the process of writing the book here: https://sandytolan.com/the-lemon-tree And listen to the audio documentary that preceded publication of the book, produced (and told) by Sandy Tovar: https://beta.prx.org/stories/25320 If you'd like to donate to the umbrella organization that supports Colin's volunteer work at the Chicago Greyhound Bus Station (assisting refugees and immigrants with their immediate needs while in transit), you can do so here: https://www.icirr.org/ (Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights)

DANS GETTING MARRIED THIS SAT AND WEVE GOT THE AUTEUR OF LOVE HIMSELF, RICHARD CURTIS (Love, Actually, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill) ON GROOMZILLAS! Does life get any better than this? The word of the week is #truth. But unfortunately ol' Dan Man is not out of the woods yet. It's the week before his wedding and the all-important Winnebago (which plays a key role in the wedding reception) has no brakes. It has no brakes! What the hell happened to the brakes?! To solve this problem, Dan and Eric turn to an unlikely source, wedding fixer QUEENS NICKY (Nate Lang) from Groomzillas Ep2. Naturally, Nicky assumes that Dan's "brakes on the Winnebago" request is code for something more criminal and launches into an elaborate plan to fake Dan's death and relocate him to Poland. (Starts 18:55) Later, Colin McCormick from Groomzillas Ep5 stops by with another song that he's written for Dan's wedding, only to be interrupted by Dan's other friend David Venhuizen, who is super pissed that he hasnt been invited on the podcast yet. Dan finally calms David down by asking him to give a speech at the wedding. (Starts 40:10) And finally, the main event... The Richard Curtis Interview! The man who turned down a knighthood, who turned down Paul McCartney's offer to officiate his wedding... That same man accepted the Groomzillas interview challenge... What a gentleman, what a guy... (Starts 56:00) Richard talks vows, wedding deaths, funeral plans, wedding product placement, and... His decision NOT to get married to his longtime partner, Emma Freud. It's an unforgettable conversation and a grand finale for Season 1 of Groomzillas. So make Dans big day even bigger.... Listen, subscribe, rate! And then check back next Friday for the start of Season 2... We're going through it all over again in the lead-up to Erics December desert wedding! Expect just as much joy, stress, and mayhem... And maybe a few surprises...

IF MUSIC BE THE FOOD OF LOVE, PLAY ONNNNNN!!! In this action-packed, music extravaganza of an episode, Dan and Eric invite not 1, not 2, but 3 amazing guests on the pod to talk wedding music. The word of the week is #groove! Comedian Ahmed Bharoocha talks DJs, first dances, mother-son Singin' in the Rain renditions, and an unforgettable father in law with an indeterminate number of letters in his name. On the newest installment of Talk to the Pros, wedding DJ Budd Diaz recounts being raised in a family of wedding DJs and how he learned to develop his own special skills, i.e. handing out inflatable guitars and saxophones to the drunkest people at the wedding. And wedding musician and human jukebox Colin McCormick reveals what it's like to be one of the kids in an adult/kids orchestral ensemble. Colin also runs through a slate of possible wedding songs, including hits by Willie Nelson, Third Eye Blind, Everclear, Oasis, and Bob Dylan, before debuting a highly anticipated original song in a bid to play at Dan and/or Eric's wedding. How will it turn out? Will Colin get the gig???
