Marina Ventura's Climate Explorers

Climates naturally change but humans are responsible for our climate changing more quickly than it ever has done before.  Marina and Mapp App look at things we can all do to help.

Humans aren’t the only ones affected by changes in the climate.  Plants and animals are too.  Habitats change which can change the water and food available, and can affect whether they survive at all.  Marina and Mappy find out more.

Flooding is something which can happen as a result of changes to the climate and here in the UK it’s becoming more common.  Marina and Map App meet a climate explorer to find out more.

Our forests are an important part of life on earth for lots of reasons – one being that they absorb carbon from the atmosphere. But what happens when the forests are cut down?  And how does this affect climate?  Marina and Map App find out more.

The earth under our feet contains lots of clues about what the climate in the past was like.  Marina and Mapp App find out from the Climate Explorers how this can help us learn about possible future changes.

Our atmosphere is made up of a blanket of gases surrounding the planet.  It helps protect and keep us warm – and studying it can give us helpful information about the climate and how it changes.  Marina and Map App find out more.

Oceans play a huge part in creating our climate on earth, and studying them can give us valuable information about the effect of changes to the earth’s temperature. Marina and Map App find out more.

The Earth has experienced many cycles of climate patterns over billions of years. Marina and Map App explore why.

Climate is all about patterns of weather and in this episode Marina and Map App find out more about the different climates on our planet and what causes them to be different from each other.

We all know that weather can be unruly and changeable. But sometimes we feel we know what the weather "should" be like at a certain time of year - why is this? Marina and Map App find out more.
