Extreme events are among the most obvious manifestations of a warming climate, with human-induced climate changes already impacting numerous weather and climate disasters in every region of the planet. They are increasing in both frequency and intensity, and are forseen to continue to increase with future climate warming. How do people who live in areas affected by extreme weather events adapt to them? Can we be calm in the future? What are the implications of climate change? What is the role of politics, the common man and new technologies? What is the situation with our Black Sea coast? Аnd are changes expected in the geography of Bulgaria as a result of the extreme phenomena? Our interlocutors are: Simeon Matev, climatologist, Dimitar Berov, marine ecologist and Emil Gachev, geographer. We will also hear the opinion of Raivis Ragainis, who is the mayor of Jekabpils, a city in south-eastern Latvia (production of Latvijas Radio). He shared his plans to reduce the potential risk of flooding as the Daugava river burst its banks and flooded the city this year.
