| In this segment, we'll get the latest on climate news around the world -- from new rifts in Antarctic ice, to the new round of international climate talks now underway in Poland. Will the US be part of the global warming solution -- and will the coming change in administration in Washington signal a change in US climate policy? Plus, how lakes and rivers under the glaciers might shift the Antarctic ice sheets, and investigating puzzling gases in the icy Arctic tundra. Could freezing tundra actually release methane? |
