Today on Colorado Edition: We explore newly released climate data that shows the last seven years have been the seven warmest years on record. We learn about the unexpected bond some people have formed with their pets – of the feathered kind. We talk with the hosts of NPR’s narrative history show Throughline about how we can understand today’s news by journeying back in time. And our film critic reviews a new movie about a young woman coping with grief.

Today’s guests include: Ahira Sanchez-Lugo with NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information, and the hosts of NPR’s Throughline, Rund Abdelfatah and Ramtin Arablouei. This episode features reporting from KUNC’s arts and culture reporter Stacy Nick.
