A Warming Planet Makes Nor'easters & Other Storms More Intense: Climate Scientist Michael Mann
As the Northeast United States contends with the aftermath of a historic bomb cyclone blizzard that blanketed the region, we speak to climate scientist Michael Mann about the causes and effects of increasingly intense weather events. "We expect to see that increase as long as we continue to warm up the planet by burning fossil fuels and putting carbon pollution into the atmosphere," says Mann. Meanwhile, he adds, policy decisions are making it harder to prepare for extreme weather. With its defunding of scientific infrastructure across the country, "the Trump administration is truly putting Americans in harm's way."

Social Media Addiction: Facebook Whistleblower Says Big Tech Has Known & Ignored Problem for Years
We continue our conversation with attorney Laura Marquez-Garrett and victim advocates Lori Schott and Lennon Torres about their fight to hold tech giants accountable for the damaging and even deadly effects of social media addiction on children and young adults. We're also joined by Frances Haugen, a former Facebook employee who blew the whistle on several of the company's harmful and manipulative practices in 2021. Haugen says mega-rich tech "oligarchs" like Mark Zuckerberg cared about teenagers only as people who could bring others onto the platform. "They worried about public perception, not the actual health of the kids," says Haugen, adding that companies like Zuckerberg's Facebook "under-invested in the safety of children," ignoring years of warnings about the psychological impacts of their products on child development in favor of "optimiz[ing] for spending more and more time on these platforms."
