Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

Is your feed full of wild weather, climate headlines, and a barrage of hot takes? Same. I'm meteorologist Johanna Wagstaff, and on our podcast, What on Earth, my team and I break down the actual science behind the news. We unpack the big climate and weather stories, explore and scrutinize real solutions, and reveal a little wonder about our planet along the way. No doom scrolling, no judging, just facts you can trust.
