Is 2016 the warmest year in all of history?
We’re going to tackle a bold and controversial statement this week: that 2016 is likely the single warmest year in the history of human civilization.
We’re joined by Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, to talk through it.
Is it fair to say this year is the warmest one we’ve ever experienced?
