The world is getting hotter and the headlines are scary. So does climate change mean the world is about to pass the 1.5 degree limit set by the Paris Climate Agreement? And what would passing this limit even mean? Rather than showing that it's game over, increasing extreme weather and sea level rise would indicate that it's never been so urgent to stop climate change - it's never been so urgent to stop punching ourselves in the face.

The Last of Us tells the story of a fungal zombie apocalypse... triggered by climate change. So could this kind of pandemic actually happen? Could global warming see Pedro Pascal running for his life from the undead? And what are the other disease threats that climate change could trigger? From malaria, to new pandemics, to zombie viruses - the truth is worth a hard-hitting TV series of its own.

There are a host of solutions to help climate change action, but how do we tell what's worth the hype, and what's just greenwashing? From solar pv, to wind power, plus nuclear and even geoengineering. So are renewables worth it, and could the future of fusion save the day? I'm joined by @EngineeringwithRosie to break down the tools that could help save us from climate break down.

And don't forget to watch the video over on Rosie's channel all about solar radiation management (SRM) geoengineering https://youtu.be/SCcqc-he0-M

From drought to wildfires to floods, 2022 saw extreme weather disasters dominating the news. These catastrophes, made worse by climate change, had devastating impacts, but they also revealed vital lessons. Will we learn from 2022's extreme weather, as climate change continues to turbo change our disasters?

From ChatGPT to Midjourney, it's clear A.I. (artificial intelligence) will change everything we do. And climate change and energy are two of the biggest things that we do. From understanding climate change, to developing new energy tech, and even building better climate policy, A.I. could mean huge amounts in our fight to stop global warming. But A.I. isn't a silver bullet, and there are a host of risks to relying to heavily on machine learning to tackle our problems for us.

If you believe what you hear, climate change can all be pinned on the wealthy or on overpopulation. But what's the evidence supporting these ideas? Are rich people really to blame, or is it all caused by people having too many babies. I break down what the data is showing us.
