How does climate change affect me?
Jordan Dunbar introduces his latest guides to the most common questions on climate change
In this edition of The Climate Question, Jordan Dunbar introduces his latest guides to the most common questions on climate change.
Jordan starts by looking into how climate change affects our everyday lives. He discusses the impact on our weather with BBC forecaster Louise Lear; while BBC Africa business journalist Clare Muthinji looks at what a warmer world means for the economy - from prices at the supermarket to where we go on holiday!
In the second guide, Jordan turns to the world's climate success stories. These include the rise of renewable energy, greener urban planning and deep - if insufficient - cuts in carbon emissions. His guest is Dr Caterina Brandmayr, Director of Policy and Translation, Grantham Institute for Climate Change and the Environment, Imperial College London.
