Defining the News
United Nations, United States—Television viewers across the globe will get a special weather report Thursday as children take to the small screen to deliver special forecasts about their future—threatened by the climate crisis.
“I’m Kaylee with a very special weather report. From down there, to up here, everything is crazy,” 11-year-old Kaylee tells viewers.Whether the weather is being reported by Kaylee, or Noam or Esteban in other languages, a map of the world shows temperatures, which continue to rise.And that’s just the beginning: it moves onward to forecasts for 2050, set against a backdrop of fires and houses collapsing under the pressure of a swollen river.
The forecasts will air in French, English, Spanish, Arabic, Hindi, Swahili and even Thai and Portuguese, the UNDP said in a press release. There is a high probability that 2024 will witness record-setting temperatures, while the WMO has said last year capped off “the warmest 10-year period on record.”
