Climate
change is a complex topic and even some of the experts have a difficult time
grasping all of the implications. As the
climate changes so does the society and world in which we live. The most recent findings of the Inter-governmental
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) point out what the science knows and the risks
ahead.
Now
a documentary series tries to bring the knowledge of climate change to the ordinary
person. It does this by telling the
stories of people affected by climate change.
How does degrading the environment affect the world and the food you
eat? How does drought relate to climate
change? What are the risks involved in
our future?
These
are some of the questions addressed in a new Showtime series airing Sunday, April
13, 2014, at 10 p.m. called “Years of Living Dangerously”. It is a nine-part series that will address a
number of topics related to climate change.
The
first episode is already available on the internet at the website www.yearsoflivingdangerously.com
. If you do not get Showtime, you can

the documentary and climate change from two of the participants in the program
on a recent Face The Nation on CBS:
