Why Weather Matters More Than Ever with Roberta Boscolo
In this episode of the Al-Attiyah Foundation Podcast, we are joined by Roberta Boscolo, Climate and Energy Lead at the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO). Dr Boscolo has over twenty years of experience in climate services, focusing on the Water-Energy-Food nexus in Africa, South America, the Pacific, and Southeast Asia.
Key questions;
- What does meteorology do for us, and why is it important?
- What is El Niño, how does it differ from La Niña, and why does it matter for global weather?
- What does history tell us about how El Niño can disrupt crops, fisheries, and global food supplies?
