Description

Climate change is so often framed as a problem for “our kids and our  grandkids,” and that’s true, but climate change is also here right now,  and it’s causing a lot of problems. We’ll take a look at a few of the  countless problems climate change causes today, and how we can better  conceptualize climate change as we move forward and try to adapt to  these issues. With special guest Dr. Adil Najam: Inaugural Dean of the  Boston University Pardee School of Global Studies and co-author of the  Third and Fourth Assessments of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate  Change, work for which the panel was awarded the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize.

Sometimes, climate change IS a laughing matter. Every week, The Sweaty Penguin cuts through the noise and the doom-and-gloom of the climate conversation with late-night-comedy-style monologues and in-depth conversations with leading global experts on a variety of environmental issues. Through a nonpartisan approach, The Sweaty Penguin makes environmental issues less overwhelming and politicized and more accessible and fun. In partnership with Peril and Promise, a PBS/WNET public media initiative on climate change, The Sweaty Penguin invites you to join the hottest conversation in town.
