We all know that climate change is escalating and that human behaviour is having profound consequences for the planet, but you might not know how much of a role the oceans play in climate change and how badly they are being affected by our carbon emissions. With temperatures rising and weather patterns becoming more extreme, just what kind of future can we expect and what will the consequences for our oceans – and our way of life – be? On the latest episode of Oceans of Learning focused on ‘Our Ocean: Our Climate’, presenter Finn van der Aar is joined by Samantha Hallam, an ocean/climate scientist at Maynooth University, Ken Whelan, research director with the Atlantic Salmon Trust and Triona McGrath, research lead at An Foram Uisce, the Water Forum to shed some light on the past, present and future of climate change and the effects on our oceans.
