Climate Catastrophe

With much of the east coast smothered in a heat wave this July, it should come as no surprise that 2010 is well on its way to being the hottest year on record. The warming trend that many climate change skeptics felt had been disrupted by a snowy winter is clearly back in a big way, which begs the question, is this the forecast we can expect from now on?


Heidi Cullen, one of America’s leading climatologists and environmental journalists, has the answers. In her groundbreaking new book, THE WEATHER OF THE FUTURE: Heat Waves, Extreme Storms, and Other Scenes from a Climate-Changed Planet (Harper; August 3^rd), she provides a fascinating and instructive look at how our world will look in 2050 if the current levels of carbon emissions are maintained.
Cullen’s provocative book offers new insight into the issue of climate change and demonstrates that it is not merely a phenomenon that will affect future generations, but one that is occurring right now in the very places where we live and work.

Her engrossing and accessible work illustrates that climate change is a serious issue that impacts humans all across the world, including in our own backyards.

As the world continues to warm our climate is dramatically changing, earthquake and volcanic activity is on the rise, and the polar ice caps and glaciers appear to be melting at a rapid pace.  What do these unprecedented modern day events mean for the future of our planet and its inhabitants? Can mankind survive what’s coming?
Tune in as radio and internet commentator-Nancy Lieder explains her reasons for these disturbing and perplexing planetary and solar events, and what we should all be doing to prepare for the troubling times that many fear will happen.
