In this episode, we sit down with Australian climate scientist
Professor Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick to explore the story of climate
science, how we first discovered the planet was warming, and what
we now know about the forces driving it. Sarah breaks down the role
of carbon dioxide in trapping heat like a planetary blanket and
shares insights from her cutting-edge research on long-term climate
modelling. What would happen if we stopped emitting CO₂ today? The
answers are sobering, yet they also offer hope, underscoring why
optimism remains essential in the fight for a livable future.
