Covering Extreme Weather And Climate Disasters (w/ CBS News' Jeff Berardelli)
Hurricane Ida was a Category 4 hurricane, first causing massive damage to Louisiana as it made landfall and later flooding New York City and other areas across the eastern half of the United States. At the same time, the Caldor Fire and Dixie Fire are burning across South Lake Tahoe and the Sierras. Why are we experiencing more extreme weather disasters? CBS News Meteorologist and Climate Specialist Jeff Berardelli explains how a warming planet has made hurricanes, wildfires, droughts, and floods so much worse. He also explains the importance and potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, also known as AMOC or the Gulf Stream. Jeff Berardelli has been a broadcast meteorologist for more than 25 years. He is currently the CBS News Meteorologist and Climate Specialist, reporting on extreme weather and the climate crisis across all CBS News broadcasts and platforms.

Understanding The IPCC’s Climate Change 2021 Report And The Crisis Described in the Sixth Assessment
On Monday, August 9th, the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released part of a major report on the current state of the climate crisis, Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis, which is the Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC. Hundreds of climate scientists were tasked with providing a physical science basis for policymakers to understand the past, present, and future of global warming. In this video, we examine some of the major findings in the report, what it means for our future, and what is left to be done to combat the climate crisis. Featuring excerpts from an interview with Dr. Michael Mann in January 2021.
