1.2 Degrees and the Race Against Time

About this episode

The episode discusses the urgent need for global action against rising temperatures and the impacts of climate change.

The planet’s fever is rising—global temperatures have surged 1.2°C above pre-industrial levels, triggering more extreme weather, melting ice, and rising seas that threaten millions. Human activity, especially fossil fuels, is the culprit, and scientists warn we’re racing toward catastrophe without urgent global action. The human toll is already devastating: displacement, food insecurity, and climate injustice hit the most vulnerable hardest. Even if we stopped all emissions today, warming is already locked in—so we must act now on both cutting emissions and adapting to the changes already here. The science is clear: time is running out.
