Expected Climate Changes May Have Dramatic Impact On Economy

The National Climate Assessment, released last week, has some dire warnings about the potential impacts of climate change.

In addition to concerns about wildfires, severe weather events, drought and health, the report also looks at how climate change could impact economies.

The Show talked to Brian O’Neill about it. O’Neill is a professor of international studies at the University of Denver where he studies climate change impacts.
