About this listen

The Gulf Stream is one of the most powerful and influential ocean currents on Earth—and it quietly shapes weather, climate, and life across the planet. In this episode, we explore how the Gulf Stream forms, how it moves warm water across the Atlantic, and why it plays a crucial role in regulating temperatures in North America and Europe.
We break down the science behind ocean circulation, the connection between the Gulf Stream and global climate systems, and what could happen if this current weakens or shifts due to climate change. From milder European winters to stronger storms and rising sea levels, the effects of the Gulf Stream reach far beyond the ocean.
A clear and fascinating look at the hidden engine driving Earth’s climate system.
