- Stark predictions of global temperature rise, and the urgent need for climate action are taking a huge emotional and psychological toll on the scientists who understand what’s happening.
Inspired by a recent article in The Guardian, "Hopeless and Broken: Climate Scientists Despair," host and climate attorney Raya Salter and Dr. Ruth Cerezo Mota, climatologist from the National Autonomous University of Mexico and a Lead Author for the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report, offer personal perspectives on the feelings of hopelessness and despair that many climate scientists are experiencing.
With over 15 years of experience in climate modeling and studying extreme weather events, Dr. Cerezo Mota provides an overview of her work and the real-world impacts of her findings. The conversation delves into the challenges she faces, including political resistance, funding shortages, and public apathy, as well as the motivation that drives her to continue her vital work despite overwhelming challenges.
