Podcast appearances and mentions of Kim Cobb

This week, we present two stories about confronting threats -- whether it's actual physical danger or a threat to your career. Part 1: Climate scientist Kim Cobb is exploring a cave in Borneo when rocks begin to fall. Part 2: Neurobiologist Lyl Tomlinson is startled when he's accused of stealing cocaine from his former lab. Kim Cobb is a researcher who uses corals and cave stalagmites to probe the mechanisms of past, present, and future climate change. Kim has sailed on multiple oceanographic cruises to the deep tropics and led caving expeditions to the rainforests of Borneo in support of her research. Kim has received numerous awards for her research, most notably a NSF CAREER Award in 2007, a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2008, and the EGU Hans Oeschger Medal in 2020. She served as Lead Author for the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and as a member of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board under President Biden. As a mother to four, Kim is a strong advocate for women in science, and champions diversity and inclusion in all that she does. She is also devoted to the clear and frequent communication of climate change to the public through speaking engagements and social media. Lyl Tomlinson is a Brooklyn native and a post-doctoral researcher and program coordinator at Stony Brook University. He is also a science communication fanatic who often asks: “Would my grandma understand this?” Using this question as a guiding principle, he won the 2014 NASA FameLab science communication competition and became the International final runner-up. In addition to making complex information understandable, he has a growing interest in science policy. Lyl meets with government representatives to advocate for science related issues and regularly develops programs to tackle problems ranging from scientific workforce issues to the Opioid Epidemic. Outside of his work and career passions, he seems to harbor an odd obsession with sprinkles and is a (not so secret) comic book and anime nerd. Learn more about your ad choices.

CLIMATEACTION SHOWMAY 1ST 2023PRODUCED BY Vivien LangfordUNITE TO SURVIVE +Fear and Wonder Part 1 MAYDAY is an internationally recognised radio word to signal distress.Our MAYDAY show highlights the 4 day Extinction Rebellion event in London. The Big One.Their banner on Westminster Bridge said "UNITE TO SURVIVE".The distress already felt by workers is shown in thiscomment by NHS Spokesperson Holly Blackler:"We've experienced a pandemic and a heatwave that took us to the limits of our endurance. These two issues are intertwined. The climate crisis unfolding in front of us... and we are deeply concerned for our patients. For that reason XR has our unfailing support" FEAR AND WONDER Episode 1By kind permission of The Conversation we bring you interviews with climate scientists. IPCC Author Joelle Gergis is our guide in this episode created by journalist Michael Green. We meet paleoclimatologist Kim Cobb underwater with the corals and learn about modelling and citizen science from Ed Hawkins.  

El Niño, the climate force that warms up the Pacific and disrupts weather across the world, is back. Scientists fear it will contribute to 2024 being the hottest year in recorded history. For India, which is reeling under massive heat waves, it's particularly worrisome. 60% of the country's droughts in 130 years have coincided with El Nino events. The jury is out on how severe the imminent bout will be. But El Nino can disrupt rains; which has knock-on effects on food prices, consumption, markets, and public health. How worried should you be? And as the world heats up and climate shocks become more frequent, how long before India becomes truly climate-proof?  Host Anirban Chowdhury speaks to: - Dr. Kim Cobb, an American climate scientist and Professor at Brown University on how El Nino has evolved over the years and its links with industrialization - Kamiar Mohaddes, Associate Professor in Economics at the University of Cambridge about how El Nino impacts some countries negatively, and benefits others.  - Saransh Bajpai, Associate Director - Climate Program at WRI India on the impact of such events in India and how states are coping.  - Saugata Bhattacharya - Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at Axis Bank on El Niño's cascading impact on various sectors of the Indian economy  -  Pankaj Pandey, Head Research at ICICI Securities on which stocks are vulnerable to El Nino and which do well on such occurrences.

We hear about the big picture of climate change almost every day — the threats it poses, the effects on our world and lives, the fight to stop it. Across the world, armies of researchers are contributing pieces to that big picture narrative every day. They often travel long distances and brave the elements to collect information, one small data point at a time. How do Antarctic penguins fare when warming temperatures bring changing conditions to a part of the continent? How do we really know what Earth's climate was like in the past, and how it compares to today? What's it like to spend months living on an old oil drilling ship, in search of tiny ancient fossils? On this special episode of The Pulse, we go behind the headlines to spend time with scientists on the front lines of climate research. We'll hear how they're collecting data, what they're learning, and what keeps them motivated. Also heard on this week's episode: The Antarctic Peninsula is experiencing some of the fastest warming on Earth — and scientists are already seeing the effects among two of the region's penguin populations: the Adélie and the Gentoo. Reporter Sophia Schmidt talks with penguin researchers about what changes they're witnessing, and why. We talk with leading climate scientist Kim Cobb about her work in the field of paleoclimatology, and what studying coral — old and new — can tell us about the earth's ancient climate history. She also explains what's next on the horizon in our fight against global warming. Cobb is director of the Institute at Brown for Environment and Society, and a recent addition to President Biden’s Intelligence Advisory Board. There's a certain way we expect scientists to communicate — in calm, measured tones that prioritize facts over feelings. But science communicator Joe Duggan thought that feelings were an important part of the narrative — a powerful tool to communicate how urgent climate research is. He decided to ask scientists to express their emotions about their work and the fate of the planet in letters. Nichole Currie reports on his project. On a beach in the Siberian Arctic, a marine biologist lives in a small hut and waits for more than 100,000 walruses to pile their massive bodies on shore. The walruses overcrowd the beach and sometimes die due to stampedes. This coming out-of-the-water phenomenon is called a “haulout,” and it's a result of climate change. Filmmaker Evgenia Arbugaeva talks about documenting this phenomenon and the scientist who studies the walruses. “Haulout” was nominated for an Academy Award for best Documentary Short Film this year.

Fear & Wonder is a new climate podcast, brought to you by The Conversation. It takes you inside the United Nations' era-defining climate report via the hearts and minds of the scientists who wrote it. The show is sponsored by the Climate Council, an independent, evidence-based organisation working on climate science, impacts and solutions.The show is hosted by Joelle Gergis, a climate scientist and lead author for the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and her friend Michael Green, an award-winning journalist.In this episode, Michael and Joelle introduce the series and look at observations of climate change over time – how we know the climate is changing. They cover what the IPCC is, what its monumental climate reports contain, how they're put together and what it feels like to be a climate scientist at this important juncture in the earth's history, with a bit of help from leading French scientist Valérie Masson-Delmotte.They speak to Kim Cobb, a US-based paleoclimatologist, who describes the destruction of the coral reef she has researched her whole career in the El Niño event of 2016. They also chat to Ed Hawkins, who explains how reconstructions from past records are significantly improving what we know and how we model the present and future climate. He tells the story of a citizen science project to digitise the extraordinary weather records from the highest peak in the UK.If you liked this episode, you might also like to subscribe to The Conversation's new Science Wrap newsletter: https://bit.ly/406nQgk.

Of all the Wikipedia pages out there - just 19 percent are about women. It was something that Dr Jess Wade stumbled onto, after she went searching for more information about Kim Cobb, an American climatologist she'd just met, and found she had no profile on the platform. It inspired her to pen her first Wikipedia entry - she's now written close to 1800 profiles of female scientists. Jess is a physicist herself, based at Imperial College London. Her work building the knowledge about women's achievements in science has earned her a British Empire Medal.

Keine Panik, Folge 17 ist nicht die letzte von Labor F. Wir sprechen kurz über Jess Wade, sie ist Physikerin und hat in den letzten fünf Jahren mehr als 1750 Wikipedia-Einträge zu Frauen und nicht weißen Wissenschaftler*innen erstellt. Die erste Wissenschaftlerin heute ist Kim Cobb, sie ist Klima- und Meeresforscherin und beschäftigt sich mit vergangenen Klimawandeln, um dadurch Rückschlüsse auf die heutige Zeit ziehen zu können. Segenet Kelemu ist Phytopathologin, forscht also an „Pflanzenkrankheiten“. Sie kommt aus Äthiopien, einem Land, in dem seit Jahren Bürgerkrieg herrscht, davon aber so gut wie gar nicht berichtet wird.

We're kicking off a new season by delving into our world's most challenging issue: climate change. We all know that it's a crisis we need to fix before it's too late. Instead of focusing on the doom and gloom though, we're going to look at the innovative ways entrepreneurs and scientists are tackling it. Dr. Kim Cobb is a climatologist at Georgia Tech and she lays out the very real goals we need to set for ourselves in the next coming decades. Then, Fast Company Senior Editor Morgan Clendaniel chats about what to expect this season.

Thursday on Political Rewind, stories about climate change are rarely out of the headlines these days. This week, it's news about wind farms. The Biden Administration has announced plans to develop seven major offshore wind farms on the east and west coasts and along the Gulf of Mexico. It's part of a larger plan to generate enough alternative energy to power 10 million homes by 2030. In just over two weeks, the U.N. will convene its global Climate Change Conference, where countries will be asked to sign off on a plan to reach zero carbon emissions within the next 30 years. All this comes after the release of new studies showing that the planet is warming at a far more rapid pace than once thought, and that we are reaching a point of no return in keeping temperatures under control. Panelists: Dr. Kim Cobb — Georgia Power Chair and director, Global Change Program at Georgia Tech Dr. Marshall Shepherd —Georgia Athletic Association distinguished professor, geography and atmospheric sciences, University of Georgia Kevin Riley — Editor, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Kim Cobb (pictured) has what she sees as the best place in the world to work - she explores and researches our coral reefs, but her actual office is in the Kendeda Building at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, America. Should you ever get to Georgia Tech and visit the Kendeda Building you'll discover the Kim Cobb Research Lab. My first contact with Dr Cobb was at a TEDx event, "Greening the Built Environment", and then, after being approached, was kind and generous enough to have this chat with Climate Conversations. The generosity of people eager to help others understand the rigour and complications of the climate crisis amazes me, endlessly. Enjoy "Music for a Warming World".

In the most ambitious U.S. effort to stave off the worst effects of climate change, President Joe Biden issued executive orders Wednesday to cut oil, gas and coal emissions and double energy production from offshore wind turbines.The orders target federal subsidies for oil and other fossil fuels and halt new oil and gas leases on federal lands and waters. They also aim to conserve 30 percent of the country’s lands and ocean waters in the next 10 years and move to an all-electric federal vehicle fleet.Biden’s sweeping plan is aimed at slowing human-caused global warming, but it also carries political risk for the president and Democrats as oil- and coal-producing states face job losses from moves to sharply increase U.S. reliance on clean energy such as wind and solar power.“We can’t wait any longer'' to address the climate crisis, Biden said at the White House. ”We see with our own eyes. We know it in our bones. It is time to act.''He said his orders will “supercharge our administration's ambitious plan to confront the existential threat of climate change.”Biden has set a goal of eliminating pollution from fossil fuel in the power sector by 2035 and from the U.S. economy overall by 2050, speeding what is already a market-driven growth of solar and wind energy and lessening the country's dependence on oil and gas. The aggressive plan is aimed at slowing human-caused global warming that is magnifying extreme weather events such as deadly wildfires in the West and drenching rains and hurricanes in the East. ,Biden acknowledged the political risk, repeatedly stating that his approach would create jobs in the renewable energy and automotive sectors to offset any losses in oil, coal or natural gas.“When I think of climate change and the answers to it, I think of jobs,'' Biden said. "We’re going to put people to work. We’re not going to lose jobs. These aren’t pie-in-the-sky dreams. These are concrete actionable solutions. And we know how to do this.''In a change from previous administrations of both parties, Biden also is directing agencies to focus help and investment on the low-income and minority communities that live closest to polluting refineries and other hazards, and the oil- and coal-patch towns that face job losses as the U.S. moves to sharply increase its reliance on wind, solar and other other energy sources that do not emit climate-warming greenhouse gases.Biden pledged to create up to a million jobs building electric cars, as well as installing solar panels, wind turbines, "capping abandoned walls, reclaiming mines, turning old brownfield sites into the new hubs of economic growth.''Even so, Republicans immediately criticized the plan as a job killer.“Pie-in-the-sky government mandates and directives that restrict our mining, oil, and gas industries adversely impact our energy security and independence,'' Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington state, the top Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee."At a time when millions are struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the last thing Americans need is big government destroying jobs, while costing the economy billions of dollars,'' she said.Biden also is elevating climate change to a national security priority. The conservation plan would set aside millions of acres for recreation, wildlife and climate efforts by 2030 as part of Biden’s campaign pledge for a $2 trillion program to slow global warming.President Donald Trump, who ridiculed the science of climate change, withdrew the U.S. from the Paris global climate accord, opened more public lands to coal, gas and oil production and weakened regulation on fossil fuel emissions. Experts say these emissions are heating the Earth's climate dangerously and worsening floods, droughts and other natural disasters.Georgia Tech climate scientist Kim Cobb called the executive orders an “excellent start” for the new administration.“If this Day 7 momentum is representative of this administratio...

Alarmed by what their research on climate change is showing them, a growing number of scientists are stepping out of the lab to advocate for solutions. Dr. Kim Cobb, a professor at the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Georgia Tech, is among those speaking out. A leading expert in the study of corals and how climate change is affecting them, Dr. Cobb was devastated when, during a 2016 research trip to the South Pacific, she saw that most of the coral reef she had been studying was obliterated. “For me, it was a bellwether event… I decided to go ‘all in’ on climate solutions, personally and professionally.”   Helpful links: GA Tech's Global Change Program: https://globalchange.gatech.edu/ Climate Change Curriculum: https://secoora.org/?s=curriculum Join CCL: https://cclusa.org/join

Kim Cobb loves being out in the field. She talks about the euphoria and passion she has for it, saying “It's like nothing I've ever experienced literally, and I've given birth to four children.” In this interview, she talks about the connection she feels to the planet and to the people she works with in the field as well as the importance of supporting and promoting women in science. She also discusses the state of science and how it’s in a moment of evolution with room at the table for all kinds of scientists to weigh in. This episode was produced and mixed by Shane M Hanlon. Special thanks to Jordana Schmierer for production assistance.

Today on Feminine Roadmap guest Kim Casey Cobb shares how she used her experience as a missing child to gain victory over victimhood. Kim’s story begins when her parents were going through a difficult divorce, her biological father made the decision to abduct her and her brother during a routine weekend visit. As the years passed, they moved many times to avoid being found, missed a lot of school and found themselves isolated from any family contact. As Kim neared her mid-teens she began to realize that she had to run away of she ever wanted to live the life that she dreamed of. Looking back on those years of being a fugitive with her father then running away to escape her father, Kim has learned to recognize that while her experience was not a common one, it did have some elements that she could use to help other people overcome their own struggles with being stuck in a victim mindset and unsuccessful patterns of behavior. She firmly believes that every situation has its gift, that there is always beauty in the ashes of even the most difficult life circumstances. No matter where you come from, what you’ve been through, how you’ve been hurt, there are mental and emotional processes that you can go through to heal, to deal with the scars that remain and live a life that is fulfilling. The greatest key to change of any kind is the management of our minds, the thought we think about ourselves and our situations. If you find yourself stuck, feeling the victim and can’t seem to find your way to freedom, this is the episode for you! Grab a cuppa something wonderful, a good sister friend and listen to this empowering conversation. Start making those changes in your life today so you can live the tomorrow that you dream of. www.feminineroadmap.com/episode141/

This week, President Trump denounced “climate alarmists” during the global economic forum at Davos, Switzerland. But a new study shows Americans increasingly disagree with his assessment. Almost 6 in 10 Americans are either "alarmed" or "concerned" by global warming, an all-time high. It follows the news that 2019 was the hottest year yet for the world’s oceans, part of a long-term trend. That benchmark is particularly alarming to oceanographers, because the majority of the excess heat caused by greenhouse gases is absorbed by the ocean. Friday on a special edition of Climate Cast, MPR chief meteorologist Paul Huttner spoke with two climate scientists about how a rapidly warming ocean affects even those of us in landlocked Minnesota. Guests: John Abraham is a professor of thermal sciences at the University of St. Thomas School of Engineering. Kim Cobb is a climate scientist and a professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

The Youth Climate Strike will take place Friday in Georgia, other U.S. states and about 150 countries. High school and college students are skipping class to demand action on climate change, and they are timing the strike for right before Monday's UN Climate Action Summit. On Second Thought hears from Andrea Manning and Zeena Abdulkarim, two of the Atlanta organizers and Dr. Kim Cobb, a climate science professor.

In Episode 76, Quinn & Brian discuss: What you don’t see (any more) when you snorkel. Our guest is Dr. Kim Cobb, a professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology who specializes in climate change, specifically how the extremes of climate change are changing in the ocean due to anthropogenic greenhouse gasses. She describes herself as 40% Climate Scientist, 40% Mom, and 20% Indiana Jones, somehow managing to balance research in remote areas of the world with raising four children. So she’s definitely badass, probably super human. Dr. Cobb, like some of our other guests who are researching the future of climate change impacts, is doing so with increasing urgency and desperation in a valiant effort to help us avoid the worst effects of climate change. As science and Dr. Cobb’s body of work are actively attacked by politicians, policy makers, and the public, she and her colleagues are being forced to stand up and scream that we need different policies, now, to keep our communities clean and safe – and we’re happy to at least offer our roof as another place to shout from.

“Are scientists…canaries in a psychological coal mine?” asks Mother Jones Washington Bureau Chief David Corn in his article “It’s the End of the World as They Know It: The distinct burden of being a climate scientist." He continues, "put another way, climate scientists often resemble Sarah Connor of the “Terminator” franchise, who knows of a looming catastrophe but must struggle to function in a world that does not comprehend what is coming and, worse, largely ignores the warnings of those who do. ‘An accurate representation’ of the Connor comparison, one scientist darkly notes, ‘would have more crying and wine.’” In this installment of “Leonard Lopate at Large” on WBAI, Dr. Kim Cobb, professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Georgia Tech and one of the climate scientists profiled in the article, joins David Corn for a discussion on what it’s like working on a problem that large swaths of the federal government refuses to acknowledge.

Why are El Niños still so mysterious and what's it like to testify before Congress? Join Kait for a chat with Dr. Kim Cobb, who's technically the director of Georgia Tech’s Global Change program, but more like the Oprah of El Niños, as they cover the climate phenomenon and a research trip fit for a Hollywood script.

Obsessed by El Niño Corals and speleothems are some of our most useful recorders of past climate variability. The spectacular speleothem records from eastern China, for example, have been instrumental in building our understanding of past variations in the East Asian Monsoon. But as is the case for most any paleoclimate proxy, corals and speleothems […]

Climate Change. That’s a phrase that has been banned by our current administration, so what does that mean to climate scientists and how does that action impact their teaching opportunities, research and the overall attitude of society towards the scientific community as a whole? These thoughts are why Ep. 29 - An Agent of Change’s guest is Kim Cobb, a climate scientist at Georgia Tech and director of the new Global Change program at the same organization. On the episode, you’ll learn what it is like to be a climate scientist in the American South. Cobb talks about what she’s learned during the 19 years she has done research on coral reefs in the South Pacific. She also gives tips on how to reduce your own carbon footprint and talks about the future of climate science. The Who’s that lady (from history)? is Hilda Solis, a politician from California.  Listen Here highlights Sunshine & Powercuts, a podcast about living off the grid.  Resources  Twitter: Kim Cobb (@coralsncaves) Kim's Website Global Change Program  

This week, we present two stories about confronting threats -- whether it’s actual physical danger or a threat to your career. Part 1: Climate scientist Kim Cobb is exploring a cave in Borneo when rocks begin to fall. Part 2: Neurobiologist Lyl Tomlinson is startled when he's accused of stealing cocaine from his lab. Kim Cobb is a researcher who uses corals and cave stalagmites to probe the mechanisms of past, present, and future climate change. Kim has sailed on multiple oceanographic cruises to the deep tropics and led caving expeditions to the rainforests of Borneo in support of her research. Kim has received numerous awards for her research, most notably a NSF CAREER Award in 2007, and a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2008. She is an Editor for Geophysical Research Letters, sits on the international CLIVAR Pacific Panel, and serves on the Advisory Council for the AAAS Leshner Institute for Public Engagement. As a mother to four, Kim is a strong advocate for women in science, and champions diversity and inclusion in all that she does. She is also devoted to the clear and frequent communication of climate change to the public through speaking engagements and social media. Lyl Tomlinson is a Brooklyn native and a neuroscience graduate student at Stony Brook University. He is also a science communication fanatic who often asks: “Would my grandma understand this?” Using this question as a guiding principle, he won the 2014 NASA FameLab science communication competition and became the International final runner-up. In addition to making complex information understandable, he has a growing interest in science policy. Lyl meets with government representatives to advocate for science related issues and regularly develops programs to tackle problems ranging from scientific workforce issues to the Opioid Epidemic. Outside of his work and career passions, he seems to harbor an odd obsession with sprinkles and is a (not so) comic book and anime nerd. Learn more about your ad choices.

Host Andy Revkin chats with Georgia Tech's Kim Cobb about the importance of paleoclimate and what records of the earth and environment’s previous eons can tell us about where we are, where we’re headed and what can be done. Paleoclimate finally has a seat at the table in climate matters, which leads to a related discussion on the importance of diversity in the climate community.
