Episode Details

Ireland’s record-breaking summer of 2025 wasn’t defined by scorching days—but by unnaturally warm nights, pushing averages to historic highs. While 2025 didn’t match the blistering daytime extremes of 1976 or 1995, climate change is quietly rewriting the rules: what once seemed extreme is now the new normal. New models show that by 2056, a 1976-style heatwave could push Irish temperatures past 38°C—far beyond the country’s previous record of 33.3°C. The consequences? Infrastructure collapse, animal suffering, health crises, and water shortages. And with Ireland on track to miss its 2030 emissions targets, the stakes are rising. Every degree matters—and every delay risks making the unimaginable, inevitable.
