When MPR News' Climate Cast debuted in January 2013, it was one of the few regular programs to address how a warming planet could change life as we know it. That urgency has only grown. In 2023, climate change is one of the leading issues driving political, economical and societal change. To celebrate Climate Cast's 10th anniversary, MPR's chief meteorologist Paul Huttner talked to an elite panel of experts about how climate change has evolved since Climate Cast began. What does the latest science say about how fast the planet is warming now? What are the biggest climate change impacts here in Minnesota and around the world? How is public opinion adjusting? And how far have climate solutions advanced in the past 10 years? This is a rebroadcast of the 10th anniversary Climate Cast. Guests: Katharine Hayhoe is widely recognized as one of the world's leading climate scientists. Among other things, she is a professor at Texas Tech University and the chief scientist for The Nature Conservancy. Bernadette Woods Placky is an Emmy Award-winning meteorologist and director of Climate Central's Climate Matters, a program that offers data analyses, graphics and other reporting resources to a growing network of more than 3,000 local TV meteorologists and journalists to help them tell local climate stories. Jason Samenow is The Washington Post's weather editor and the popular Capital Weather Gang's chief meteorologist.  Ed Maibach is the director of the Center for Climate Change Communication at George Mason University. He also codirects the Climate Change in the American Mind polling project. Jamie Alexander is the director of Drawdown Labs, which is Project Drawdown's private sector testing ground for accelerating the adoption of climate solutions quickly, safely and equitably. Jon Foley is the executive director of Project Drawdown, a leading resource for information and insight about climate solutions.

Raising our voices matters Katharine Hayhoe: When I ask people to describe what they feel about climate change in one word, the answers are: scared, depressed, paralyzed, overwhelmed, angry, guilty, anxious and frightened. Those are entirely reasonable. But unless we recognize that our choices make a difference, we're not going to fix this issue. Too often, we picture climate action like a giant boulder, sitting at the bottom of an impossibly steep cliff, with only a few hands on that boulder. We think, “why should I add my hand to that boulder? It's not going to move. It's pointless.” But when we look around and see all the action that's already happening, we realize that the giant boulder is already rolling down the hill in the right direction. And if I add my hand, and used my voice to encourage others around me to add theirs, it would go faster. As Joan Baez famously said: “The antidote to anxiety and despair is action.” And we can't fix this alone, but together. I'm absolutely convinced we can do it. It all begins when we use our voices to call for action wherever we live, work, study, worship, play. We can use our voices for a better future for us all. 2. Climate change impacts are more expensive than ever Bernadette Woods Placky: When we experience an extreme event, some of the impacts are obvious for the immediate toll on lives and our health. But it doesn't end after the event, especially in these communities that don't have as many resources and are the most vulnerable among us. That's where we have to continue making these connections: a storm is connected to climate change, but it is also connected to what you're already paying to recover and how that factors into your future costs. For instance, the Flood Insurance Program has gone through some major ups and downs. California and parts of the West are really trying to figure out how they're going to cover people with wildfire insurance, especially when affordable housing is already a massive issue, then you add all these extra pieces on top of it with the economy and COVID. It's affecting people who have really worked hard most of their life and done everything right out of their homes. We've gotten to a point now where the cost of taking action and leading toward climate solutions is more affordable than what we're paying in the impacts. 3. U.S. systems are not built for such extreme climates Jason Samenow: We've seen about 1.2 degrees Celsius of change. But the increase in extremes is increasing disproportionately. In other words, we're seeing a bigger change and extremes than you might expect for that amount of warming. That has climate scientists particularly concerned because if we go to 1.5 Celsius warming or even 2 degrees Celsius of warming, we're going to see these extremes continue to proliferate. Our systems are built for a climate that was a degree cooler, so the cost of trying to adapt to these extremes is going to be profound. It makes it incumbent in planning decisions to think about where we're headed in terms of the different extremes that we're facing and how they're changing. When we saw Hurricane Ida go through and you saw 4 inches of rain falling in an hour, the systems there weren't built to withstand that. We see these extremes continuing to get worse, the wildfires increasing the speed at which they spread, hurricanes like this past hurricane season — with that 15-foot surge in southwest Florida or around Fort Myers — and you add sea level rise on top of that. There's just a lot of thought that needs to be put into planning across the different economic sectors, whether you're talking about agriculture, health, water, all of these different systems are very vulnerable to extremes and they are proliferating before our very eyes.  4. Weather can solve climate change impacts Bernadette Woods Placky: One of the ways we're solving this is through wind and solar energy. That is weather, and it is dramatically shifting how we get our electricity. As the society can move as much as possible over to electrically-driven cars and transportation, and within our home units, businesses and buildings, then we power that with multiple forms of renewable energy. But again, I'm honing in on the forecasting aspect of this. This is weather powering our future. That's one of the areas where we're already seeing tremendous growth, and we'll see even more. 5. There are 5 key truths about global warming Ed Maibach: Me and my colleague Tony Leiserowitz have been conducting a poll that we call “Climate change in the American mind” every six months since 2008. One of the things that we've learned from our research is that there are five key truths about global warming. People who understand them are much more likely to be engaged in doing something about the problem. Those five key truths are: Global warming is real and the proportion of Americans who understand it is 7 out of 10. Global warming is human caused. Global warming is bad for people in a whole variety of ways There's hope actions we take will make a difference. Experts agree that global warming is human-caused, no matter what you hear about it. 6. More than half of Americans are both alarmed and concerned about global warming Ed Maibach: There's really no such thing as the general public. That never really does justice to the way people really think and feel about issues. So we used our survey data back in 2008 to identify distinct ways of seeing the global warming issue among the American people. We found six distinct categories: the alarmed, the concerned, the cautious, the disengaged, the doubtful and the dismissive. The top-two categories — alarmed and concerned — make up the majority with 53 percent. Ten years ago, fewer than 3 in 10 Americans felt that climate change was changing the weather here in the U.S. and now it's almost two-thirds, so more than 6 in 10 people who get the fact that the weather isn't what it used to be. 7. Politicians stopped denying climate change and started acting on it Ed Maibach: In the most recent election, we really didn't see Republican candidates talking about climate change and I would contend that's actually a good thing. Normally during prior election seasons, Republican candidates used to speak out against climate change, against the belief in our human-caused climate change, and against taking action on climate change. But that didn't happen in the most recent election. I think the reason why is because that doesn't play with young conservatives in America anymore. They actually would like their leaders to acknowledge the realities of the problems that we face. I think that's a really important step forward, and I hope it continues to play out. America will be a much better country.  Another thing that I think everybody should keep their eye on is the fact that Congress did pass the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which is a major climate solutions bill. So a whole lot of money is going to be flowing through federal agencies to help Americans, homeowners, renters and business owners start to participate in the clean energy revolution, at a much more affordable price than they could have previously participated. My guess is that public enthusiasm for climate solutions is about to skyrocket. 8. Overall emissions have decreased since 2007 Jon Foley: At the national level, this surprises a lot of people. But the United States as a whole has actually been seeing a decrease in all of our emissions overall, as a country, by about 20 percent since 2007. Most people don't expect that to be true, but it is. Even though our economy and our population have grown, our emissions have been going down since 2007. That's true in Minnesota, too. And what's also really interesting is the price of solar photovoltaics and wind power has fallen more than anybody ever expected. Even the optimists have been caught off guard by how cheap solar and wind have gotten. Solar is now the cheapest form of energy humans have ever had in our entire history, so no wonder it's finally winning. It's beating coal, and it's going to beat natural gas in the marketplace really quickly. That's great news. 9. Big actors can move things faster Jamie Alexander: Another thing that I'm looking at is what the big actors in society, such as large corporations, are doing to help us move much faster than any one individual can. We have a lot of big businesses in the Twin Cities that have a lot of clout and influence and can really help us move money much more quickly than any one individual into climate solutions. These big actors in society can help us shift away from the source of the problem and toward the solutions. Large corporations can shift their banking practices away from those banks to finance the sources of the problem and toward climate solutions. One of the things I'm looking at up here in Duluth, where I live, is how we're going to work to transition like workers in the Iron Range, for example, and how mining is going to be. I think that's going to be a really important thing to get right. 10. Little changes can make a big difference Jon Foley: We can do a lot of things in our homes that save us money, like retrofitting our homes when we have the chance, taking advantage of tax breaks, insulating and weatherizing our homes, improving our heating and cooling systems to new efficient made-in-America heat pumps. Also small things like reducing food waste, eating our leftovers, making sure we take home the doggie bag, shifting our diets to things that are a little bit more climate friendly. We can also do the talking about it and engage in a larger conversation, not just in the voting booth, but every day about what we buy, how we talk, what we post on Facebook, what we listen to, how we chat about it. Even at work, asking questions about our retirement funds, what our company is doing about climate change and so on. We can be part of a larger democratic conversation as a society that really brings climate change to front and center but also all the benefits climate solutions bring to us too.

People who understand them are much more likely to be engaged in doing something about the problem. Those five key truths are: Global warming is real and the proportion of Americans who understand it is 7 out of 10. Global warming is human caused. Global warming is bad for people in a whole variety of ways There's hope actions we take will make a difference. Experts agree that global warming is human-caused, no matter what you hear about it. 6. More than half of Americans are both alarmed and concerned about global warming Ed Maibach: There's really no such thing as the general public. That never really does justice to the way people really think and feel about issues. So we used our survey data back in 2008 to identify distinct ways of seeing the global warming issue among the American people. We found six distinct categories: the alarmed, the concerned, the cautious, the disengaged, the doubtful and the dismissive. The top-two categories — alarmed and concerned — make up the majority with 53 percent. Ten years ago, fewer than 3 in 10 Americans felt that climate change was changing the weather here in the U.S. and now it's almost two-thirds, so more than 6 in 10 people who get the fact that the weather isn't what it used to be. 7. Politicians stopped denying climate change and started acting on it Ed Maibach: In the most recent election, we really didn't see Republican candidates talking about climate change and I would contend that's actually a good thing. Normally during prior election seasons, Republican candidates used to speak out against climate change, against the belief in our human-caused climate change, and against taking action on climate change. But that didn't happen in the most recent election. I think the reason why is because that doesn't play with young conservatives in America anymore. They actually would like their leaders to acknowledge the realities of the problems that we face. I think that's a really important step forward, and I hope it continues to play out. America will be a much better country.  Another thing that I think everybody should keep their eye on is the fact that Congress did pass the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which is a major climate solutions bill. So a whole lot of money is going to be flowing through federal agencies to help Americans, homeowners, renters and business owners start to participate in the clean energy revolution, at a much more affordable price than they could have previously participated. My guess is that public enthusiasm for climate solutions is about to skyrocket. 8. Overall emissions have decreased since 2007 Jon Foley: At the national level, this surprises a lot of people. But the United States as a whole has actually been seeing a decrease in all of our emissions overall, as a country, by about 20 percent since 2007. Most people don't expect that to be true, but it is. Even though our economy and our population have grown, our emissions have been going down since 2007. That's true in Minnesota, too. And what's also really interesting is the price of solar photovoltaics and wind power has fallen more than anybody ever expected. Even the optimists have been caught off guard by how cheap solar and wind have gotten. Solar is now the cheapest form of energy humans have ever had in our entire history, so no wonder it's finally winning. It's beating coal, and it's going to beat natural gas in the marketplace really quickly. That's great news. 9. Big actors can move things faster Jamie Alexander: Another thing that I'm looking at is what the big actors in society, such as large corporations, are doing to help us move much faster than any one individual can. We have a lot of big businesses in the Twin Cities that have a lot of clout and influence and can really help us move money much more quickly than any one individual into climate solutions. These big actors in society can help us shift away from the source of the problem and toward the solutions. Large corporations can shift their banking practices away from those banks to finance the sources of the problem and toward climate solutions. One of the things I'm looking at up here in Duluth, where I live, is how we're going to work to transition like workers in the Iron Range, for example, and how mining is going to be. I think that's going to be a really important thing to get right. 10. Little changes can make a big difference Jon Foley: We can do a lot of things in our homes that save us money, like retrofitting our homes when we have the chance, taking advantage of tax breaks, insulating and weatherizing our homes, improving our heating and cooling systems to new efficient made-in-America heat pumps. Also small things like reducing food waste, eating our leftovers, making sure we take home the doggie bag, shifting our diets to things that are a little bit more climate friendly. We can also do the talking about it and engage in a larger conversation, not just in the voting booth, but every day about what we buy, how we talk, what we post on Facebook, what we listen to, how we chat about it. Even at work, asking questions about our retirement funds, what our company is doing about climate change and so on. We can be part of a larger democratic conversation as a society that really brings climate change to front and center but also all the benefits climate solutions bring to us too.

When MPR News' Climate Cast debuted in January 2013, it was one of the few regular programs to address how a warming planet could change life as we know it. That urgency has only grown. In 2023, climate change is one of the leading issues driving political, economical and societal change. To celebrate Climate Cast's tenth anniversary, MPR's chief meteorologist Paul Huttner talked to an elite panel of experts about how climate change has evolved since Climate Cast began. What does the latest science say about how fast the planet is warming now? What are the biggest climate change impacts here in Minnesota and around the world? How is public opinion adjusting? And how far have climate solutions advanced in the past ten years? Guests: Katharine Hayhoe is widely recognized as one of the world's leading climate scientists. Among other things, she is a professor at Texas Tech University and the chief scientist for The Nature Conservancy. Bernadette Woods Placky is an Emmy Award-winning meteorologist and director of Climate Central's Climate Matters, a program that offers data analyses, graphics and other reporting resources to a growing network of more than 3,000 local TV meteorologists and journalists to help them tell local climate stories. Jason Samenow is The Washington Post's weather editor and the popular Capital Weather Gang's chief meteorologist.  Ed Maibach is the director of the Center for Climate Change Communication at George Mason University. He also codirects the Climate Change in the American Mind polling project.

In another Marvel Cinematic Universe themed episode, Mark talks about the 2013 American superhero film "Thor: The Dark World" directed by Alan Taylor. The sequel to the 2011 film "Thor" and the 2012 "The Avengers", the premise of the film concerns the Marvel character Thor (played by Chris Hemsworth) and his struggle to defend and protect his love interest, astrophysicist Jane Foster (played by Natalie Portman), from the diabolical leader of the Dark Elves, Malekith (played by Christopher Eccleston), after she absorbs a weapon known as the Aether - which, when all the Nine Realms are aligned, could be used by the Dark Elves to bring about a prolonged period of darkness throughout the entire universe. Tom Hiddelston once again stars as Thor's adoptive brother, the trickster god, Loki; Anthony Hopkins once again stars as Odin, the King of Asgard and father to Thor and Loki; Stellan Skarsgård once again stars as Dr. Erik Selvig; Irish Elba once again stars as Heimdall; Kat Dennings stars as Darcy Lewis; Jamie Alexander stars as Sif; and Rene Russo once again stars as Frigga, mother to both Thor and Loki; and there also many other cameos from some great actors. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/markthepoet/message

0:22 Kerry VanderbergI'm hoping that the Disney plus shows will kind of fill in the gap during the waiting times in between the films. While I liked having Agents of SHIELD and the Netflix shows, their lower budgets and distancing of themselves from the MCU made the wait in between films tougher. Even though they won't be in theatres, do you think the Disney Plus shows will feel like a "cinematic" experience themselves in terms of the storytelling and production value of the shows?2:01 Jordan BentleyHey Sean, I understand that as the MCU grows, it will be more difficult to avoid plotholes. One that kind of bothered me from Endgame was when Loki got the Tesseract, he immediately used it to make a portal to get away, although we hadn't seen anyone (with the exception of Red Skull) open a portal with it. If he knew it could open portals the entire time, why wouldn't he have used it to save Asgard from Thanos at the beginning of Infinity War? Thanks as always!3:39 Giuseppe VicarettiThere's speculation going around (I saw this on slashfilm.com) that Rachel Weisz and Florence Pugh are both playing as Black Widow. What are thoughts on these rumors?4:37 Anthony LawreyWould you rather see an orange The Thing (more Michael Chiklis) or more of a reddish The Thing (more Jamie Bell) in the MCU?5:14 LincAssuming the 5x series we have in phase 4 are a success, but wouldn't be made into multiple series (but with What If...? being the obvious possible exception), what are the next 4 series would you like to see introduced in phase 5?7:48 Mookie JohnsonI've watched Far From Home multiple times and I can't shake the feeling that Marvel Studios and/or Sony are trying to merge the Peter and Miles Spider-Men. Peter already has a guy in the chair from homecoming. When he was designing his suit before the London showdown, he designed a red/black suit with taser webs. They could have made any creative decision there and chose those suit colors and  to use taser webs. Plus both FFH and Into the Spider Verse have a similar basic premise that Spider-Man is given power that he doesn't feel worthy of and can't overcome his opponent until he embraces that he is a worthy hero...I'm interested to hear your perspective on this and thoughts on if Miles will eventually still show up in the MCU still since he was teased in Homecoming.12:11 Alex WardDo you think Jamie Alexander will return as Sif in Thor: Love and Thunder? Would you like her to, or would the cast be too crowded?14:01 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean, about Blade who would you want to be the villain more in the first movie, Deacon Frost or Dracula??14:49 Bill Van NormanWild speculation upcoming:     I have been thinking about Wanda and WandaVision and her story lines. In the MCU she has seems like she has been traumatized by her upbringing, the death of her brother, by the battle with Thanos with the death of Vision, and likely the snap as well. This would appear to be setting up her battle with mental illness or ptsd along the lines of her comics story lines. You have mentioned that you think it is a possibility that Vision appearing in the Disney+ event series may be her being lost in her own mind and/or using her powers to create the illusion of Vision. This all seems like a possibility to me. Do you think it is possible though that her trauma unleashes her powers in a way that enables her to breech dimensional barriers and go into the Multiverse? and the Vision we see is one from another reality? And moreover, if that is happening could the people around her just think she is acting "crazy" but the truth is she is, through her powers, experiencing another part of the multiverse? If this is the case it would also fit in with her role (and the title) in the upcoming Dr. Strange movie.17:44 Kerry VanderbergHydra seems to be more or less completely defeated in the MCU. With the real Mandarin making his official debut in Shang Chi, could the Ten Rings terrorist organization be the new recurring threat to the Earth-bound heroes that would need to be dealt with over the course of multiple films? Obviously we didn't see the Avengers taking on muliple raids against Hydra, they simply talked about how they were going after a bunch of Hydra bases before Age of Ultron. It might be cool to see how the Ten Rings have infiltrated various organizations or groups throughout the world. Could the Ten Rings and the real Mandarin emerging from the shadows be one of the reasons for a new roster of Avengers to come together?20:08 Brett HeierWill the MCU Spiderman Movies be on Disney+?21:23 Alex WardDo you think that Marvel Studios will ever release original feature-length films on Disney plus in lieu of a theatre release? If so, which characters do you think would best suit such a format?24:09 Steven_84After a second and third viewing of Captain Marvel, I find myself enjoying it more and more. Recently a second viewing of Spider-Man Far From Home has vaulted my opinion of that movie as perhaps the best live action Spider-Man movie. Do you think the reason Marvel movies get better on second viewing is that the growing quality of the MCU is ramping up our expectations? Also, could it be that we are increasingly in the dark on what to expect because Marvel is changing things up more? I'm finding myself leaving the  theater on first viewings not sure where I stand on a movie yet.30:27 LincIs Bucky attending Tony's funeral in poor taste?32:54 Eric BoberWhat does the MCU version of the Fantastic Four need to hit on with fans and general audiences, where the previous ones may have missed on? Full disclosure: I actually like and enjoy Fant4stic (2014 film) and the first Tim Story film but not the second one as much. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You know that show, the one you watch and really kind of enjoy, the one you almost never talk about with your friends? This episode is all about the "Guilty Pleasures" as Barry, Dave and Tod own up to the movies and TV shows they find entertaining, and often oddly addicting, in spite of not belonging to the intended demographic. And so we ask, Is it ok to watch chick flicks . . . just for the chicks? Also, What's in the Box, several minutes of Jamie Alexander worship and a plethora of random topics.

We are joined by the amazingly knowledgeable hosts of the new podcast, The Cult of Muscle! Jake and our old buddy CDR hang out to review the film, The Last Stand.

TJ may be a day late getting this episode out, but he's going to give you the news of the week anyway. Starting off the week we learned that ‘Batman vs. Superman' has been pushed from 2015 to May 6, 2016. Given how crowded 2015 is, this doesn't really seem like that bad of a thing. Jamie Alexander will appear on ‘Agents of SHIELD" in her role at Sif which seems exciting. The upcoming James Bond films will build on what happened in ‘Skyfall' and this also seems like a good thing since ‘Skyfall' is obviously the best of the three newer ‘Bond' films. JJ Abrams says the ‘Star Wars VII' script is done and they will be shooting the film on actual film stock. Federal agents removed a man from the theater and treated him like a criminal because he was wearing Google Glass. This is an extreme miscarriage of justice and an overstepping of bounds. Not to mention that this situation highlights again just how out of control our copyright system is. The focus of this weeks' reviews and ‘The MovieByte Podcast' was ‘Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit' — a passable film, but kind of disappointing. And it turns out that younger audience are paying no attention to this film. In the category of "sigh", ‘Atlas Shrugged 3' is moving forward, but just as with part 2, with an all new cast. How inspiring… And of course, find out what to see at the box office this weekend.

Glen Peloso & Jamie Alexander from Peloso/Alexander Interiors discuss design

Os traemos una nueva tanda de noticias en la que hablaremos de los primeros concept-arts de la película de World of Warcraft, de Duncan Jones, de las 4 nuevas series de Marvel para Netflix, ampliaremos nuevas informaciones y cambios en Arrow y Flash, repasaremos brevemente los primeros trailers de "Maléfica", con Angelina Jolie, y "Noah", de Darren Aronofski, además del falso trailer de "Machete Kills again... in space". Repasaremos también algunos datos de taquilla, el anuncio de una nueva película de Lobezno en solitario, los rumores sobre la reactivación del proyecto "Deadpool", el reboot de "Los 4 fantásticos", los flirteos de Jamie Alexander con el papel de Wonder Woman, y los problemas de las primeras PS4, Sony y Foxconn. Le daremos algo de cariño a "The Walking Dead", que parece apuntar a cierta mejoría, y cuyo anunciado spin-off parece que narrará el origen de la epidemia. Y además, tendremos tiempo de ponernos nuevamente conspiranoides con nuestra querida compañía Disney. Como siempre, con un toque de humor, a veces inofensivo, a veces negro azabache, al que hoy además sumamos un corte final de tomas falsas. Esperamos que os guste.
