Towards a Warmer World

'Collectively we are now pushing Earth into critical mode.'

As new thresholds are breached, acclaimed Radio New Zealand science writer Veronika Meduna explores our future in Towards a Warmer World: What Climate Change Will Mean for New Zealand's Future.

Beginning with lessons from our ancient geological past, this Towards a Warmer World draws on current observations and increasingly sophisticated climate models to describe possible end-of-century scenarios for New Zealand. Distorted ecosystems, extreme weather, new landscapes and adapted foods are just some of the likely changes that amount to a radically different future for our country.
