Another Take: What can humanity do about heat waves?

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on June 13, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.

It's still spring in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, but the world faces scorching hot temperatures. Summer heat has arrived early, setting records, claiming lives, and expected to get worse. Who's responsible and what should be done about it?

In this episode:

  • Johan Rockström (@jrockstrom), Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research
  • Jeff Goodell (@jeffgoodell), Author of “The Heat Will Kill You First”
