1336: Climate Crisis Special

Climate Sensitivity, Coal Consumption, and Youth Voting

Experts argue that the global climate is less sensitive to CO2 than models suggest, noting that El Niño events and volcanic eruptions have a greater impact on temperature. In Canada, activists lobby to lower the voting age to eight, arguing that children deserve a say in the "12 years left" to act on climate change. Scientists remain divided on whether the world has already passed a critical tipping point for feedback mechanisms.
