In this episode, Elise examines what we’ve learned (and what we still need to learn) from the impact of natural disasters like Hurricane Sandy, including pathways to climate resilience, advancements in attribution studies, and what makes for a healthier city. Then Olivia tells the story of the Flint water crisis, tracing back to a time when Vehicle City flourished and what happened when it floundered. Other topics include great new climate books, Little Miss Flint, and whether we’ve lived up to our college freshman goals.
