The Aftermath: The Dust Bowl

The Alarmist
About this episode

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Dr. Gabi Hegerl about her expertise in climate system science and how her research on the record breaking heat waves during the 1930’s in America’s great plains led her to one of their biggest contributing factors, what we now know as The Dust Bowl. Afterward, Patreon subscribers can hear the post-interview breakdown with Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith and reflect with the crew on some of the simple and approachable ways Dr. Hegerl suggested we as a society began addressing our climate concerns.
