Storms, earthquakes, flooding. Far more extraordinary climate is placing force on getting older infrastructure in large towns, wherever 68% of the world’s populace is expected to live by 2050. In this segment from Receiving Hotter, Kal Penn explores how towns can adapt, and why evident infrastructure alternatives are often so high-priced and gradual.

Finding Hotter is Bloomberg’s unique new show about weather, clean up electricity and business, anchored by actor and former White Household aide Kal Penn.
Accompany him on his journey as he will take an up-shut glimpse at daring local weather methods and discovers new aspects of the worldwide changeover to clean vitality.
In a hosted studio phase, Penn sifts via the overwhelming news about our weather and breaks down the points and developments to have an understanding of with a dose of humor and optimism. Why are the recycling symbols on your plastic cups misleading? How does the carbon credit rating market place do the job and does it in fact assist? And what is the foreseeable future of water in a drought-ridden planet?
On the road, Penn meets the innovators, researchers, communities and companies pivoting to new strength resources and spearheading reduced-carbon systems. In documentary segments, Penn speaks to the self-declared “crypto cowboys” of Texas who assert Bitcoin mining can help stabilize the state’s troubled electrical grid, and travels to Nevada to stop by the enterprise making an attempt to construct America’s initial shut-loop supply chain for electrical cars. In New York, Penn explores the city types proposed to preserve the town from the future Superstorm Sandy and goes inside New York’s Empire Condition developing to look into the troubles of decarbonizing our metropolitan areas and landmarks.
The exhibit builds on, and involves contributions from, Bloomberg Green’s award-profitable workforce of local weather journalists as effectively as London-centered local weather storytellers Jack Harries and Alice Aedy. With a target on the most urgent concerns for young viewers, Jack and Alice unpack 1 big thought each episode. From recycled wastewater to regenerative agriculture and the issues of a just transition for workers in the electrical power sector, they’ll break down how nations around the world across the earth are obtaining intriguing methods to our climate crisis, and define the worries ahead.

Thanks, we needed Kal Penn to tell us that upgrading infrastructure is a slow and difficult process. Nobody knew this before.

What a strange place to end the video…
Kal Penn is awesome
3:04 "Over design, under staffing, lack of expertise" what a way to be politically correct not mentioning "corruption".
The single biggest problem with cities and adapting them for the future is government. You say it's a complex array of problems causing construction to take decades but mostly it's just government inefficiencies. At least some of the issues can be solved by having the government incentivize companies to do the work. Mass transit for example could be done smartly by a company instead of having the government do a shoddy job. If a company knows it can make money while getting government support to do such a thing then you would have companies competing for the opportunity.
The other main problem is property rights. Lots of people own plots in the city and at least some of them are going to be unwilling to have their property bulldozed so the city can rebuild their cityscape.
Grand solar minimum. Look it up. Having been telling people this since 70's. It explains what you'll be seeing this year. It's the Sun and has NOTHING TO DO WITH CARBON. Russia, China and Mr Gates knows this. I explained it to him MANY YEARS AGO.
How about giving real scientists a word. Not some forgotten actor. Propaganda at its best
More actors who are. Now environmentalists or doctors. I wonder what ha rule thinks on a serious matter like this, SONE ONE GET JA RULE ON THE PHONE. So I can make sense of this.
DUDE HAS SO MANY LARGE HD SCREENS AROUND HIM, MUST BE IMPORTANT !!!!
You can't even trust bloomberg these days, they went full woke
Anecdote , Andecdote , anecdote , the sky is falling meanwhile the rich tics of this world hav monopolised "the climate crisis" with carbon credits so they can put a choke hold on any sovereign nation that signed up to they're protocols that doesn't fall into line, our governments hav sold us all out for this fkn charade
imagine unironically paying Kumar to be your spokesperson
I like this format and boy does Kumar did a great job interpreting the message. Great! Give us more of this.
When the ignorant refute Science
and hate "Government," sadly, …
Climate Change will be like Covid!
Expect for Wave after Wave of hits.
Sadly, the cat's too far outa the bag!
From getting high to Getting Warmer with Kal Penn. But in all seriousness I do appreciate these series
We should be worrying about cooler temperatures.
🥦More news from kumar please!🥦
yo koomar when the new white castle movie coming out?
The approach shouldnt be "adapt" as if it was innevitable, of course certain level of adaptation is needed at this point, but only as a measure in tandem with preventing and mitigating the causes of this crisis in the first place.
