Comedian Marcus Brigstocke explores the role of humor in addressing climate change. While a serious issue, humor has long been a powerful tool for social change. The question is whether it can genuinely transform public perspective or merely serve as an evasion.

With the climate clock ticking, traditional talks and debates often reinforce existing knowledge and fears. To spark new dialogue and enduring change, the RSA is launching a series of unique climate events, beginning with a comedy night. This initiative aims to break through the static and foster fresh perspectives.

NASA and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports confirmed that last year was Earth's warmest on record. Their analysis also shows that, with the exception of 1998, the ten warmest years have all occurred since 2000.

Since record-keeping began in 1880, Earth's average surface temperature has risen by approximately 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius). This warming trend is primarily attributed to increased carbon dioxide and other human-caused emissions into the atmosphere.

A 60-second animation by the Royal Society and the US National Academy of Sciences explains climate science.

Over the last 200 years, human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, have increased atmospheric CO2 by 40%. If unchecked, these emissions could warm the planet by 2.6°C to 4.8°C this century, posing serious threats to societies and nature.

The film "Arctic Emergency: Scientists Speak On Melting Ice and Global Impacts" by Max Wilbert features climate scientists discussing the critical state of the Arctic in their own words.

Rising Arctic temperatures are causing sea ice to melt and permafrost to thaw, destabilizing a system vital to global climate, often called "Earth's Air Conditioner." This directly contributes to global warming, impacting weather patterns, natural systems, and human life worldwide, with the Arctic at the center of these profound changes.

Published on August 1, 2014, the film includes insights from leading experts such as Jennifer Francis (Rutgers University), Ron Prinn (MIT), Natalia Shakhova (University of Alaska-Fairbanks), Kevin Schaefer (National Snow and Ice Data Center), and others from prominent research institutions.

Mary Robinson founded the Foundation bearing her name, dedicated to climate justice for vulnerable, marginalized populations worldwide. She served as President of Ireland (1990-1997) and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (1997-2002).

A member of the Elders and the Club of Madrid, Robinson has received numerous honors, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In 2013, she was appointed UN Special Envoy for the Great Lakes region of Africa, and her memoir, *Everybody Matters*, was published.

At the AASHE2011 Student Summit, Bill McKibben delivered a speech addressing the urgent question: "What else do we need to do?" He updated attendees on our planet's current state, reflecting on his seminal book, *The End of Nature*. This work was written 22 years before much of the recognized evidence for climate change emerged.

To purchase *The End of Nature*, order from Amazon or visit your local bookstore.

Join NASA scientists on a 40-minute visual tour of Earth from space, titled "Vital Signs: Taking the Pulse of Our Planet." This annual lecture, presented at the IMAX Theater at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. on September 10, was sponsored by the Maryland Space Business Roundtable.

Published October 23, 2014, the video features scientists guiding viewers through Earth's water cycle, forests, and frozen regions, as seen through NASA's Earth observing satellite fleet. It emphasizes our planet as a complex, dynamic system.

NASA's Earth science program seeks to enhance understanding of Earth's system and its response to changes, improving predictions of climate, weather, and natural disasters to better life today and in the future.
