OK, shameless self plug. As many of you know, Gizmodo recently launched a new podcast called System Reboot. Hosted by Earther managing editor Brian Kahn and senior consumer tech editor Alex Cranz, System Reboot explores the big things that are broken and talks to smart people about ideas to fix them.

A recent episode of System Reboot talks about two things that play huge roles in our life: climate change and the internet. Did you know that climate change could affect your dear, precious internet? Internet is dependent on fiber optic cable infrastructure that is vulnerable to storm surge and mobile networks that are vulnerable to wildfires. We are not even to mention how heat waves can affect your servers.

Get why climate change is so serious?
