Bench Talk | CO2 Emissions Shift; Is It Important? - Three-Legged Horse - Night Sky | Nov. 3, 2025
Did you know that the earth broke a seven-year pattern in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere last year? Instead of increasing by 2.3 ppm per year (as it did from 2017 to 2023), CO2 levels in 2024 rose by 3.5 ppm! A 52% jump. Dave Robinson opines on the importance of the 'CO2 greenhouse effect' vs. land use management on climate disasters like storms, flooding, high temperatures, water scarcity, and sea level rise. Then, Leslie Moise introduces Rocky, the three-legged horse that has captured the world's attention. She reads a poem she wrote about Rocky and the people who are trying to help him. Finally, Scott Miller tells us about the planets, constellations and meteor showers we can see in the night sky in November.
