A new report from the International Programme on the State of the Ocean, or IPSO, written by 27 top experts on the oceans. They warn the oceans are in a state of dying from multiple causes, all of them human. Climate change is not coming. It is here. Carbon is not only flooding the atmosphere but the deep sea. Two clips, interview with paleoclimatologist Dr. Peter Ward, and new climate song.
The oceans, stripped of the big species we eat, poisoned by our waste into expanding dead zone, with corals richness turning into white deserts - but changing chemically, becoming more acid.
It is news of mass extinction looming in the sea.
In short audio clips, we hear two experts from the report explaining the problem and our prospects: Professor Chris Reid, Marine Institute, the University of Plymouth; and Dr. Alex Rogers, Scientific Director of IPSO, University of Oxford.
Then we go to an expert in past extinctions, who has advised Animal Planet and National Geographic TV. Dr. Peter Ward, Professor at the University of Washington, is an author of several books on the subject, including "under A Green Sky", "The Media Hypothesis" and the most recent "The Flooded Earth: Our Future In a World Without Ice Caps"
Following that feature interview, we premiere a new song about the changed climate, "Come Winter".
Song written by Ethan Miller; performed by Ben Grosscup and Dan Inglis (American). No album recording, premiere on Radio Ecoshock. Find group at
