December 1 – Global Warming Guaranteed: How the World's Oceans Propel Climate Change
As the planet heats up, so do the oceans. Warmer ocean waters have far-reaching impacts on sea life, sea level, local climate and even hurricanes. With more than two-thirds of the Earth covered by water, the oceans not only experience climate change, they help drive and regulate it. Oceanographer and climate scientist Josh Willis joins us from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena to discuss this hot topic! Stay after the talk to view the film GLOBAL WARMING.
