S01E30 - Living on a knife edge: what are climate tipping points?

This week, Simon Messenger (solo—no David Carlin!) dives deep into the science of climate tipping points. What are they, where do they come from, and why do they matter?

From collapsing ice sheets to shifting ocean currents, learn how Earth’s systems can absorb pressure for a while—until they suddenly snap, shifting into a new and often irreversible state. Think leaning too far back in your chair or bending a stick until it breaks.

So why aren’t we paying closer attention to these critical thresholds? And what can we actually do to avoid the worst outcomes?

Join Simon for a fascinating and urgent look at the hidden triggers in our climate system—and what they mean for our future.
