Climate Extremes (Full Documentary)

Are we at risk of crossing planetary tipping points? Are we at risk of pushing the planet toward a trajectory where it could unstoppably drift away from a state that can support life as know it? Climate Extremes: At the Abyss? explores these questions, presenting expert perspectives and ongoing scientific research on the rapidly changing.

Earth system and the rising risk of triggering rapid, non-linear, and even self-reinforcing «vicious cycle» feedbacks in critical planetary systems like the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, ocean currents (including the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC), and the Amazon Rainforest.

Featuring insights from scientists including Johan Rockström, Daniel Swain, Stefan Rahmstorf, and Samantha Burgess from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), and University of California/US National Center for Atmospheric Research, Climate Extremes lays out the complex dynamics of planetary boundaries and tipping points, providing viewers with a deeper understanding of the powerful forces presently shaping Earth.
