Weekly Program

In early October the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO) issued a report on the impact of climate change on the ocean. Its results are alarming. Rogers, Scientific Director of the IPSO, joins us to talk about the report, and the urgent situation faced by humanity. Gleick talks about his book "Bottled and Sold - the Story Behind Our Obsession With Bottled Water." Ward discusses his book âThe Flooded Earth: Our Future in a World Without Ice Caps.â
