About this listen
Created and narrated by Professor Dagomar Degroot of Georgetown University, The Climate Chronicles reveals how climate change shaped humanity's past. With clear, dramatic storytelling, it explores what history can tell us about the future of global warming. In the fourth episode of our first season, "Becoming Human," Professor Degroot explores how our hominin ancestors learned to cope with, and even exploit, the wildly fluctuating climate of the Pleistocene. He uses the extraordinary migration of a hominin species named Homo erectus to introduce the concept of resilience: a key but contested term that can help us understand our fate on a warming world.
