This episode looks at the growing calls for urgent Climate Change Adaptation action as the climate emergency deepens.
The failure to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions has come home to roost in the form of more frequent and intense extreme weather events including increased flooding, droughts, heat domes, and wildfire with all the associated increased risk to human health and safety that entails.

Jennifer Penney, a longtime health policy advocate, activist and chair of the Adaptation Working Group of Seniors for Climate action Now (SCAN!), joins me for this timely conversation.
