The Next Global Crisis May Already Be Starting

A powerful El Niño is developing in the Pacific and it could be one of the strongest on record. NOAA has issued an El Niño Watch with an 82% chance of emergence by July 2026 and 96% chance it persists through winter. Scientists are tracking rapid warming that may rival or exceed the devastating 1877-78 and 1997-98 events, on top of record global baseline temperatures.

In this video, we break down the science, compare it to past super El Niños, and explain the real-world risks to food prices, energy grids, flooding, droughts, and wildfires especially compounded by current Iran conflict disruptions and existing droughts.
