A report from November 1922 published in the Monthly Weather Review described radical changes in the Arctic, including disappearing icebergs and rising water temperatures. The text predicted that the ice melt would soon make coastal cities uninhabitable. The hosts use this to argue that dire climate predictions have been a recurring theme for over a century.

Governor Jerry Brown and California's Climate Leadership

Governor Jerry Brown reaffirmed California's commitment to fighting climate change regardless of federal policy in Washington. The hosts dispute Brown's claims of rising oceans, citing historical maps of the California shoreline. They also reference a recent observation by Joe Rogan regarding how green the California landscape has become following a decade-long "super drought" that was previously predicted to never end.
