COP-26 Video of the Week: Past is Present: Why 1.5°C is the Ice Sheet Temperature Limit, with Julie Brigham-Grette and Andrea Dutton

For a look at ice sheet behavior over the past several million years, in response to CO2 and warming levels at or only slightly above today’s levels, watch this stellar COP-26 presentation by two giants of the paleo ice sheet field: Dr. Julie Brigham-Grette, University of Massachusetts Amherst and former chair of the U.S. Polar Research Board, and Dr. Andrea Dutton, University of Wisconsin and a 2019 MacArthur “Genius Grant” Fellow.
