Climate Conversations: Sport

Met Office - En podkast av Met Office

In this month’s Climate Conversations we are talking Climate Change and Sport. We hone in on six popular UK sporting events including the First Test Match at Edgbaston, the Great North Run, the London Marathon and the Six Nations Rugby and how they will be influenced by future weather trends due to climate change – picking on latest research by the Met Office. Also we talk to the founder of the Green Gazelles Rugby Club, and their perspective on how matches and training are being disrupted currently by the unpredictability of extreme weather, touching on the recent World Rugby Climate Report, and proactive responses to raise awareness across the sport. Produced and presented by Alex Burkill and Clare Nasir with guests, Met Office Climate Scientist Lottie Woods and Founder of Green Gazelles Rugby Club, Brendan Bale. Climate Conversations is a monthly show that takes an in depth look at the trends and impacts of climate change by chatting to experts about their latest research and insights.
