Climate Change Crisis: Urgent Warning and Advanced Predictive Technology

The video discusses the urgent threat of climate change and the need to address greenhouse gas emissions. It highlights the challenges in predicting climate change due to scientific uncertainties. Advanced climate models developed by the British Meteorological Office, in collaboration with Japan, aim to improve predictions. The impact of extreme weather events, such as floods, is significant, with financial consequences for insurance companies. The video concludes by exploring future climate scenarios based on varying levels of emissions.

What is the main reason for the uncertainty in climate change predictions?

• Insufficient government funding

• Lack of data on greenhouse gases

• Uncertain and incomplete science

• Inaccurate temperature measurements

What is the purpose of the collaboration between UK and Japanese scientists?

• To reduce greenhouse gas emissions

• To advance the science of predicting climate change

• To build a new supercomputer

• To study marine life interactions

What was the impact of the adverse weather in the Cornish village of Boss Castle?

• A severe heatwave

• A tornado that destroyed homes

• A 3M wall of water causing floods

• A drought that lasted for months

Which year was considered the most expensive for insurance payouts due to extreme weather?

• 2003

• 2005

• 2002

• 2004

How do the new climate prediction models help us?

• By eliminating the occurrence of natural disasters

• By reducing the cost of insurance premiums

• By demonstrating different futures based on greenhouse gas levels

• By predicting the exact weather for the next decade
