Understanding the energy balance importance for our planet health | Nedim Sladic | TEDxSarajevo

Nedim Sladić emphasizes the critical importance of understanding Earth's energy balance to combat climate change conspiracies. He draws analogies to culinary recipes and human health to explain this concept. Sladić differentiates weather from climate and illustrates how the Earth's energy system, like a balanced recipe, requires precise measurements to maintain equilibrium. He explains the role of greenhouse gases in maintaining Earth's temperature and the potential impacts of a 1.5°C increase in global temperatures, likening it to the human body having a fever. Sladić calls for respect for ecosystems and greater care for nature to mitigate climate change effects. A software engineer in the field of statistical data science from the International University of Sarajevo and an experienced, passionate-driven meteorologist with a versatile skillset and a Master of Science degree from the University of Reading who worked as the editor-in-chief, meteorologist and weather presenter on the national television in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His field of interest is focused on European heatwaves, particularly on the development and amplification factors driven by the energy budget of different entities, climate change, mitigation and adaptation policies, early warning systems with a focus on flood forecasting techniques and hazardous weather analysis with emphasis on the synoptics. Nedim is an elected member of the Royal Meteorological Society (RMetS). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
