Edge of Extinction: Faster than Expected

Larsen B to collapse faster than expected


I was interviewed by the Canadian Broadcasting Company on 12 June 2015. The result is embedded here, with my eight-minute session beginning at the 2:19:55 mark. The recording might be limited to residents of Canada, although I don’t know for certain (I’m in Canada, so I have access).

-Tropical forests may be vanishing even faster than previously thought.

-Global sea levels have risen significantly faster than previously thought

-Greenland Ice Sheet Melting Faster Than Previously Thought

-Icebergs are breaking away from Antarctica faster than previously thought.

-Antarctica's ice discharge could raise sea level faster than previously thought.

-The Ocean's Surface Layer Has Been Warming Much Faster Than Previously Thought.

-Mass Extinction Occurred Much Faster Than Previously Thought.

-Deadly Super Volcanic Eruptions May Occur Faster than Previously Thought.

-Antarctic Permafrost Melting Faster Than Previously Thought

-Scientists Say Venice Is Sinking Faster Than Previously Thought.

-Mammals Becoming Extinct Faster Than Previously Thought.

- A new report says the world's oceans are changing faster than previously thought

-Permafrost melt will release climate-warming carbon dioxide gas into the atmosphere much faster than previously thought,"

-Galveston Island Sinking Faster Than Previously Thought.

Amblyomma aureolatum ticks transmit disease faster than previously thought.
Climate change could happen much faster than previously thought.

-Permian Mass Extinction May Have Happened 10X Faster Than Previously Thought.

AND MY PERSONAL WINNERS:
