Welcome to the Tipping Point podcast, where Shauna Corr and Neil Leslie discuss all things climate.

Humanity is now at a crossroads with two possible futures in front of us.

One where we make the changes needed in the next decade and thrive - and a rather more alarming one where we don’t.

This week, we speak to Maynooth University's Emerirtus Professor John Sweeney about the weather systems we are now seeing, and how we discern exactly what is being caused by humans. We talk about heatwaves, monsoons and the impact this will have on humanity's future.

Tipping Point is produced by Ciaran Bradley for Reach Ireland.
