This is an excerpt of a program that “streamed live” on Cambridge Community Television (CCTV) Channel 9 at 4:30pm on 10 April 2022 from Cambridge, Massachusetts in the United States. [“Global Climate Change & Africa: Coastal Urban Vulnerability on a ‘Marginalized’ Continent.”]
The popular media has pointed out that scientists have been issuing warnings about the dangers of greenhouse gas emissions for over sixty years:
In addition the public was warned by Dr. James Gustave Speth, ever since 1981.
