This video looks at 6 of the major potential climate-related tipping points that scientists have grown increasingly worried we are getting close to crossing due to global warming. It also includes a fascinating discussion of how these tipping points are all interconnected and influenced by each other, and what it would mean if they were triggered. Watch this video to learn about the consequences of any of these systems being pushed over the edge and how we might prepare for them.
