Radley Horton on Extreme Weather

We caught up with Radley Horton—Columbia Climate School professor and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory climate scientist—to get expert perspective on extreme weather events, including why their intensity and severity are expected to increase. 🌡️🔥⛈️

"What keeps me up at night is thinking about whether extreme events may actually be more extreme than our climate models suggest. One thing that gives me optimism is how solutions-focused students are today. Now, almost any profession that students go into, they're applying that sustainability lens."
