IN REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER… starting with our most recent show

2020 SEASON

Global Warming Acceleration! – Hansen & Sato December 30, 2020 – 2020 will be the hottest year ever recorded AND the rate of global warming accelerated. On December 14, 2020 Dr. James Hansen, former NASA Goddard Space Institute Director, released a new post called “Global Warming Acceleration”.

Climate Collapse & The Plastic Plague December 16, 2020 – Professor Will Steffen speaks for hundreds of scientists and experts with a warning: global warming may drive societies to collapse. Carroll Muffett from the Center for International Environmental Law explains plastics and climate change. Big oil and gas plan to flood the world with plastic, and heat the world past the brink. | The violent weather is here now and the Polar ice is going to gone. It’s time to talk about it. Our first guest Professor Will Steffen speaks for hundreds of scientists and experts with a warning: global warming may bring societies to collapse. | Then to the other plague driving us toward Hothouse Earth. You have plastic bits in your body. Almost every living thing in the sea does too. Oil and gas companies plan to produce even more – as a way to stay in business when solar, wind and electric cars take the market. Multinational oil giants and petro-countries will still drill and pump, still leak methane and carbon into a damaged atmosphere, but fossil fuels will be hidden in waves of plastic everything. Carroll Muffett from the Center for International Environmental Law explains plastics and climate change. I’m Alex Smith. Welcome to Radio Ecoshock, where the whole truth leaks out.

Half the corals of Australia announced dead. A vast swamp of Brazil burned over. Ice vanishing at the Poles and it’s all just blips on our news radar, gone in seconds. Radio Ecoshock doggedly continues to cover the big shift on this planet. This is real news we need today.

“We are the generation that is likely to witness the destruction of our Earth.” So says Dr Joëlle Gergis, the award-winning climate scientist from Australian National University. In the Guardian newspaper October 15, Gergis continues “Soon we will be facing 50C summer temperatures in our southern capital cities, longer and hotter bushfire seasons, and more punishing droughts. We will be increasingly forced to shelter in our homes as dangerous heat and oppressive smoke become regular features of the Australian summer. Looking back from this future, the Coronavirus lockdown of 2020 will feel like a luxury holiday.” Meanwhile, the largest wildfires ever recorded in both California and Colorado continue to burn.

Your Future Has Arrived June 3, 2020 – Heat beyond human tolerance has arrived in the Australian outback. From Alice Springs, physician specialist Dr. Simon Quilty with tales of wilting people, dying trees and a future gone walkabout. Hear this warning to a heating planet. And why don’t we count heat deaths, the way we count Coronavirus deaths? That makes it time for hot summer listening – from my earlier interview with Dr. Camilo Mora: “Twenty-Seven Ways a Heat Wave Can Kill You: Deadly Heat in the Era of Climate Change”.

Transfixed by news of riots, mass burials, and fear of disease another relentless force continues. On May 27 it was 98 degrees Fahrenheit, about 37 degrees C – in Montreal Canada. The average high for that time of year is 70 Fahrenheit, or 21 degrees C. The province of Quebec has Canada’s highest number of COVID-19 cases, over 50,000 people tested positive, and about 4500 deaths. Their economy has more or less closed down. Every stage has it’s backdrop. For our times, that is climate change. We may find a vaccine for the new Coronavirus. A new business landscape may form. But a hotter world is certain. Extreme weather is the new violence running behind the news.

Because of the pandemic, the United Nations has called off the world climate summit for this year. They did not even try to make it a virtual gathering – a move that should have been made years ago. Instead of diplomats, scientists, activists and media flying in from all over the world, the COP climate conference system needs to take it’s own medicine and ditch air travel. I guess we can just postpone climate action for another year. Except dealing with climate is just like the pandemic. Earlier action can save millions of lives. Each year of delay brings the on-set of calamity that much closer, becoming harder and harder to put out the fire. That is why you and I keep the climate watch on Radio Ecoshock.

But if you need an escape, let’s go way out there to the front lines, to a place you won’t see in the news. Download or listen to this Radio Ecoshock show in CD Quality (57 MB) or Lo-Fi (14 MB)

Lethal Heat Warning May 20, 2020 – From the UK’s University of Exeter, Professor Tim Lenton explains the climate niche where most of humanity lives. But that zone is shifting, and billions of humans will migrate away from uninhabitable countries, mostly northward toward the Poles – not centuries but mere decades from now. Dr. Radley Horton from Columbia University warns killer heat and humidity are already popping up around the world, including the United States. Human productivity, crops, and lives are lost, with more to come in a rapidly warming world. Like the virus, the greenhouse world doesn’t care if you believe it, deny it, or postpone action. Now we are in a race to keep as much earth as we can within limits dictated by our health. Almost anyone could see the new Coronavirus boiling up in China. In a global world it was bound to come, but still most other countries did not react and prepare. Now leading scientists have another warning: extreme and deadly heat is not just the future, it is already here. Will we listen this time?
