The final episode of the Climate History podcast is also the first episode of The Climate Chronicles, a new podcast created, produced, and narrated by our host, Professor Dagomar Degroot of Georgetown University.
The Climate Chronicles is a unique multimedia production that uses dramatic storytelling to explain how climate change shaped the history of humanity, from our evolution to the current climate crisis.
It explores how and why climate changed in the past; how researchers in many fields identify human responses to past climate changes; how scientists first learned about the history of climate change; and what this history could tell us about the future.
In our introductory episode, Professor Degroot uses one of the great adventure stories of the seventeenth century - the tale of fourteen desperate men deserted on two tiny Arctic islands - to identify key themes in the history of climate change.
You can find The Climate Chronicles wherever you listen to podcasts, or you can visit TheClimateChronicles.com to view episode trailers, download audio files, and read illustrated transcripts with maps, graphs, infographics, and citations.

The Papers of Thomas Jefferson and the Record of Past Climate Change
In the 20th episode of Climate History, co-hosts Dagomar Degroot and Emma Moesswilde interview Jim McClure, General Editor of the Papers of Thomas Jefferson at Princeton University. Recently, Director McClure spearheaded the creation of a unique digital resource: a repository of Jefferson’s abundant observations of the weather and climate of his time.
McClure discusses the creation of the Jefferson Weather and Climate Records; explains what visitors can find using this resource; describes how Jefferson wrote about the weather of his time; and details why scholars and students interested in climate change should put "Jefferson to use without accepting all that he was or did."
