47:58 "there's a lot of plants and animals that live in very narrow ecological niches, that are defined in large part by temperature and precipitation. And as the world warms, there is going to be potentially catastrophic impacts in a lot of these ecosystems."

Paul Beckwith, a climate science educator, goes through James Hansen's recent warnings about a coming "Super El Niño".
This video (24:48) assumes a small amount of background in math and science, enough to read time/temperature graphs, but is generally quite accessible in its explanations. He walks through a lot of good stuff like how the El Niño / La Niña cycle works, what some of the "forcings" are that are driving some of these things, why things like aerosols matter, what different models show, what the consensus predictions have been and why Hansen's predicting something substantively stronger.
It's a pretty worrisome set of things, but Hansen has been an important voice in the climate conversation, and I think Beckwith's presentation is pretty level—trying to just walk through the information dispassionately in a way that can help you understand the science part.

Paul explains the new paper #JamesHansen has issued
"the real value is 4.5 degrees Celsius increase in temperature for a doubling of CO2"
