For today’s Climate Report on 7/8/21, we focus on the two things on the minds of most local listeners regarding climate change impacts and adaptation: heatwaves and fires.

First, a new study on how the most recent heatwave exceeded even the worst-case scenarios of climate modeling, throwing predictions for the future up tin air.

Next, a piece by a noted climatologist and hydrologist, who talks about all the people who ask him if they should move due to the climate.

Then, another piece by a climate/environmental author about her life being impacted by wildfires.

Lastly, we briefly touch on the die-off of perhaps a billon marine animals off the Pacific NW coast due to last week’s unprecedented heatwave.

Please listen and share!
