Understanding Rising Temperatures with Climate Scientist Zeke Hausfather

Climate scientist and researcher Zeke Hausfather from Berkeley Earth joins a live chat on Thursday, June 26, to discuss the evolution of his organization and its role in climate science. Launched by a physicist who was initially skeptical of climate scientists’ work, Berkeley Earth has become a key group in tracking planet temperatures.

The past two years have seen record-breaking highs, with every month setting a new record for that time period. This rapid increase puts us at risk of exceeding key climate targets much earlier than expected and leaves the climate science community struggling to explain the intensity of heatwaves.

During the live chat, Zeke Hausfather will share insights on how scientists are grappling with these dramatic changes, exploring relationships between temperatures, and investigating tipping points and individual weather events. The conversation will also delve into what this tells us about where our climate is likely to go over the rest of this century.

Join the discussion by asking Zeke your questions – he’s a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand climate science.
