This episode is about home, and all that word can mean. We’ll hear from a woman who lost her home due to climate change, a young man who used to hate his home, and … a super hero from Florida fighting for clean energy, one home at a time. Adrienne Kennedy runs the Seeds of Hope Project Disaster Relief Center, which provides aid to people displaced by Hurricane Matthew: we talk with Adrienne and some of the people she helps. Jorden Revels is a 19-year-old activist and member of the Lumbee Nation in North Carolina, and he talks about his own journey home. Susan Glickman was born in Tampa, Florida, and has been working to fight climate change since the 1990s. Here, she talks about trying to get Florida to change from fossil fuels to solar power—and about her secret identity, which works to get her home state onto 100% clean energy.
