It is nearly impossible to read a newspaper or magazine, listen to the radio, or watch the nightly news without encountering at least one mention of climate change. For years, melting glaciers and ice caps, cataclysmic storms, rising seas, and longer, hotter summers have fueled concerns that our planet is warming, and prompted heated debate among politicians, scientists, journalists, and ordinary citizens. Quietly, below the roar of the crowd, National Geographic has been documenting the effects of climate change and its many contributing factors, and modeling the potentially devastating consequences for our environment and societies around the world.

National Geographic Executive Editor Dennis Dimick has overseen this coverage and reporting, working side by side with senior writers, photographers, scientists, and research teams as they gathered and analyzed the data.

Dimick has recently presented at the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Marriott Corporation, American Society of Refrigeration, Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Mountain Film in Telluride, the Yale Institute for Biospheric Studies, the Earth System Initiative at MIT, Café Scientifique at the National Science Foundation, EARTH University in Costa Rica, and UNEP's World Environment Day.

Changing Climate: Where Energy and Global Warming Meet
In a sweeping visual journey, Dimick shares highlights of both National Geographic's features and the most recent scientific reports documenting climate change, and explore what we as communities and individuals can do to reverse the trends.
