Studying Antarctic Cod: Insights into Heart Surgery and the Impact of Global Climate Change

The video discusses research by the University of Birmingham Medical School on the Antarctic cod, focusing on its adaptation to freezing temperatures and potential implications for heart surgery. It also covers global climate change, highlighting the increase in extreme weather patterns and the role of greenhouse gases. The UK's Hadley Centre provides predictive modeling tools to help developing countries plan for climate change.
