Join us as we explore the startling gap between public perception and scientific reality in climate change. Drawing from Gapminder's groundbreaking research and global surveys, we uncover how misunderstandings about basic climate science could be hampering our response to the crisis.
Did you know that 67% of people believe halving emissions would immediately cool the planet? Or that 85% underestimate the ocean's crucial role in absorbing excess heat? We'll dive into these misconceptions and explain why they matter for climate action. From the surprising truth about greenhouse gases to the persistent myths about global development, this episode separates fact from fiction.
We'll explore:
• Why temperatures will continue rising even after dramatic emission cuts
• The ocean's overlooked role in climate change
• Common myths about global population and resource use
• How these misconceptions affect climate policy and action
Featuring insights from the IPCC and leading climate scientists, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at where public understanding falls short and what it means for our collective future. Whether you're a climate expert or just starting to learn about these issues, you'll gain valuable perspective on how to better understand and communicate about climate change.
