We talk about Antarctica with Dahr Jamail. MP3

New research shows the glaciers of Antarctica melting faster than expected, and perhaps triggering a “feedback loop” that could raise sea levels to catastrophic effect. This is a real thing, happening now, but only a couple of major outlets have even reported the news, which still doesn’t amount to really taking it seriously. Journalist Dahr Jamail writes about human-driven climate disruption, and what it would mean to address it, for Truthout; he’s author of the new book The End of Ice, forthcoming from the New Press.
