The AMOC is one of Earth’s most vital systems and it may be collapsing. Ocean scientist, Lisa Beal, has discovered that the Gulf Stream is slowing down, indicating a potential tipping point for the AMOC. In hopes to prevent an AMOC collapse, Maiya May heads to Georgia to meet Stacey Abrahms and learn how an ambitious non-profit hopes to electrify everything. She then travels to take her first flight lesson in an all electric plane. And finally she returns to Florida to learn about the final piece of the puzzle in reaching net-zero carbon emissions: nature. Weathered is a show hosted by weather expert Maiya May and produced by Balance Media that helps explain the most common natural disasters, what causes them, how they’re changing, and what we can do to prepare. ***** PBS Member Stations rely on viewers like you.
