The Weather Channel announced Thursday it’s latest original production, an ambitious-sounding six-part documentary series, “Tipping Points,” for which it serves as the U.S. partner. The aim is to chronicle what’s going on with the Earth’s rapidly changing (“destabilizing,” scientists say) climate system. There’s no mention of “global warming” in the project description, but melting icecaps and dying rainforests are among the critical examples. The six hours will follow a group of scientists from the Amazon to Siberia and beyond as they “explore the perilous tipping points making our weather systems more extreme and unpredictable.”
