Was that climate change? That's the question that comes up after a devastating storm, flood, or heatwave. Scientists are now able to give us an answer, and relatively quickly! This week Margot Curl, Manager Innovative Engagement and Youth at the Climate Centre,  is hosting the show and she interviews Sjoukje Phillip, KNMI, who works as part of the World Weather Attribution (WWA) group to provide rapid, and scientifically robust answers to the attribution question. Margot also talks to Ignacio Amigo a communications expert who helps WWA get their work out to journalists and the general public. And she interviews Roop Singh, the regular host of the show, about the role of vulnerability and exposure in determining the impact of an extreme event.  References and supplemental material:World Weather AttributionNational Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine report: Attribution of Extreme Weather Events in the Context of Climate ChangeThe intro music is Welcome to the Show, and the background music is Beauty Flow, both by Kevin MacLeod and is used under a creative commons license.
