Written By Stuart McNish

Guest: Dr. Sara Harris, University of British Columbia

Dr. Sara Harris is a senior instructor at the department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Science at the University of British Columbia.

In Part 1 of our two-show Conversation, Dr. Harris explains the elements of climate and how they interact. She points out that carbon dioxide has a long life span in the atmosphere and because it is not breaking down, it continues to accumulate. The concentration level of carbon dioxide is now over 400 ppm and rising.
