Professor of Atmospheric Physics at the University of Oxford. A coordinating lead author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on 1.5 Degrees. Credited as one of the scientists who discovered “net-zero” emissions are required to stop warming. We discuss how Myles' emotional response to climate science has changed over an almost 40-year career, and the way in which some climate anxiety is driven by a misunderstanding the 1.5C target. To conclude, Patrick & I speak about the value of education in managing fear.

Notes:

Myles refers to "Bill Nordhaus" making an accurate global warming prediction in the 1970's. He's actually referring to Jules Charney & the Charney report, the first major scientific report on climate change published in 1979, which can be found here:
