Green Frequency
Climate Change | Where Are We Now?
Where does climate change stand in 2026? In this first episode of Green Frequency, we take a grounded look at the state of climate change today. Where progress is being made, where challenges remain, and what the data actually tells us.
Featuring a conversation with climate scientist Dr. Claudio Piani and student activist Averie Gannon, this episode explores global emissions trends, the future of the Paris Agreement, and why every fraction of a degree of warming still matters. The discussion moves beyond extremes to offer a more nuanced perspective on climate science, public understanding, and the role of individual and collective action.
Green Frequency is an Earth Radio Show that brings together environmental research, frontline stories, and global decision-making. Across this series, we hear from scientists, advocates, and communities around the world to better understand the systems shaping our planet and what it takes to respond to them.
This is the beginning of Season 1, The Work Ongoing, a series focused on understanding where we are now and how we move forward.
