60 Minutes (US) S55E28 - The Domino Effect | Out of Thin Air | An American Down Under
Summary:
The Domino Effect –The United States is in the middle of a maternal health crisis – a woman in the U.S. is twice as likely to die from pregnancy today than her mother was a generation ago. Sharyn Alfonsi reports on the country's troubling state of maternal healthcare. She visits Louisiana, where women already facing some of the country's highest maternal mortality rates are dealing with new maternal care hurdles imposed by the state's abortion ban.
Out of Thin Air –According to a 2023 UN climate report, the heat-trapping effects of carbon dioxide are more severe than anyone expected, as oil and gas emissions reached record highs. Bill Whitakertravels to Iceland to see the world's first commercial direct air capture plant in operation. This potential climate solution vacuums carbon dioxide out of thin air and locks it away deep underground. Can this new industry grow fast enough to avoid a climate catastrophe?
An American Down Under –Correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on the unlikely star of Australian rules football and the only American in the league, Mason Cox. Standing at nearly seven feet, Cox grew up in Texas with no knowledge of the sport of footy but has quickly become an Aussie celebrity as he's mastered the game as a player for the storied Collingwood Magpies.
