,1,In January of 2019, journalist Elizabeth Rush joined 56 scientists and crew people aboard an ice-breaking research vessel to study the Thwaites glacier in Antarctica. The glacier, which is about the size of the state of Florida, has been nicknamed the “Doomsday Glacier” for the effect its disintegration would likely play in the rise of global sea levels.
“If we lose Thwaites, there's great concern that we will lose the entirety or big portions of the West Antarctic ice sheet and that those glaciers combined contain enough ice to raise global sea levels 10 feet or more,” Rush told Dan Richards on this episode of Trending Globally.
Rush recounts her voyage aboard the Palmer and how it reshaped her understanding of our changing climate and planet in her 2023 book, “The Quickening: Antarctica, Motherhood and Cultivating Hope in a Warming World.” However, as the title suggests, the book is also about another, more personal journey: Rush’s decision to have a child.
The resulting book is part adventure travelogue, part mediation on the meaning of motherhood, and part climate change manifesto. It also offers some much-needed wisdom on how to envision a future when it feels like the world is falling apart.

,1,What is the U.N. doing to Fight Antisemitism with Alice Wairimu Nderitu and Noah Phillips
The fight to combat antisemitism around the world has found a passionate ally in Alice Wairimu Nderitu of Kenya, Under-Secretary General of the United Nations and Special Adviser of the Secretary-General on the Prevention of Genocide. Last year Wairimu Nderitu, an experienced peacebuilder and mediator, issued a policy paper with AJC’s Jacob Blaustein Institute on the importance of speaking up against Holocaust and genocide denial and steps that can be taken by both the U.N. and those around the world to help prevent threats to Jews.
Join the undersecretary for a wide-open conversation about why she believes the United Nations should be playing a bigger role in fighting antisemitism and what that looks like; her visit to Auschwitz; and what it’s like to be a mediator. In conversation with Moment Digital Editor Noah Phillips.
This program is part of a Moment series on antisemitism supported by the Joyce and Irving Goldman Family Foundation.
