In episode 217 of America Adapts, we dive into World Wildlife Fund’s ManglarIA (“AI for Mangroves” in Spanish), a new initiative supported by Google.org, Google’s philanthropic arm. This pioneering initiative is using advanced technology, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), to understand how mangrove ecosystems and their contributions to communities are affected by climate change and its impacts. You will take a journey to the Yucatán in Mexico as we visit some spectacular mangrove forests with WWF Mexico staff, and you’ll learn how they are using state-of-the art sensors and drones to collect needed data and using AI to help with coastal adaptation planning. You’ll also hear from local Mexican community members who are participating in and benefiting from the project. This episode highlights the groundbreaking adaptation work WWF is doing to adapt our natural systems to a changing climate.

In episode 214 of America Adapts, we partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense to show their work in adapting cultural resources in the Pacific islands. We traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii to cover the Keeping History Above Water workshop and the PICARD, Pacific Islands Climate Adaptation Research and Development conference. These two events were combined and sponsored by the Department of Defense.  The podcast covers how cultural resources are at threat from climate change and the unique challenges Pacific Islanders have in adapting to these threats. You’ll also hear about some exciting adaptation technology to help islanders adapt to climate change. The three day event was a fantastic mix of indigenous people, adaptation experts and government representatives all converging to share their stories and approaches to adaptation. A special emphasis was placed on the Marshallese islands and you’ll hear from a state senator from those islands who shares what’s at stake for the Marshallese. This episode will get you to rethink what you know about cultural resources and you’ll learn about the innovative ways Pacific islands are adapting.

In episode 213 of America Adapts, we are joined by two fellow climate podcasters and an expert in extreme heat. First is Louie Woodall, who hosts Climate Proof, a podcast focusing on adaptation finance, investment, and technology. Then, returning to the pod, is Peterson Toscano - the host of the Citizens Climate Radio podcast - where he interviews people from all walks of life to discuss the effects of the climate crisis and the importance of taking climate action. Also joining is Dr. Larissa Larsen, a professor of urban planning at the University of Michigan, who shares some important research on extreme heat inside buildings and her efforts to get the U.S. Census to include questions on whether homes have air conditioning. Important data to have in a warming world!  We cover a lot of ground in this episode!  And yes, I share another hot take. 

https://www.americaadapts.org/episodes/climate-podcasters-adaptation-tech-and-finance/art-and-activism-and-bonus-extreme-heat-research

Guests in this episode:

• Louie Woodall – Founder/Host/Editor of Climate Proof Newsletter and Podcast
• Peterson Toscano – Host/Producer of Citizens Climate Radio Podcast
• Dr. Larissa Larsen - Professor of urban and regional planning at the University of Michigan.

Topics covered:

• The Finance Behind Adaptation
• Climate Tech and Adaptation Startups
• Exploring Climate Proof Newsletter and Podcast
• Importance of Understanding Adaptation in Business
• Bringing art and youth into the climate conversation
• Research on indoor temperatures
• The U.S. census and the lack of heat information

Quotes from the episode:

Louie Woodall:

…we need to engage the private sector in adaptation if we are to protect the most vulnerable and protect our economies as a whole from the rigors of climate change…

Peterson Toscano: 

…it's so much better to talk about what we're fighting for rather than what we're fighting against…

Dr. Larissa Larsen: …The census doesn't include a question around how do we keep cool? And so I think this is quite a shortcoming.

In episode 210 of America Adapts, Dr. Carolyn Kousky, Associate Vice President for Economics and Policy at the Environmental Defense Fund, returns to discuss the climate challenges in Florida's property insurance market. She outlines how Florida faces significant economic risks due to hurricanes and other disasters, with 36 presidential disaster declarations since 2000. The episode delves into the complexities of the state's insurance system, focusing on three key programs: Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund, and the Florida Insurance Guarantee Association. Dr. Kousky addresses the reliance on smaller insurance companies; the critical role of reinsurance; and the impact of climate change on insurance pricing and availability. Doug and Carolyn have a broader conversation about the insanity of the Florida system of the existing property insurance market and how it could lead to price gouging for Florida citizens living in less at risk areas of the state. Also, the ‘hot take’ for this episode!

Transcript of episode available here. Quotes from the episode:

Dr. Carolyn Kousky:

Politically, there's often an appetite to just ignore the risk and not address it because addressing it can be hard and might be costly, but failing to address it is also setting us up for much higher future costs.

…we need to view the crisis in our insurance markets as a signal for how high risk is, and that we have to  invest aggressively and quickly in much more climate adaptation in order to lower that risk to a manageable level…

 Doug Parsons:  

Climate change is like gravity. … there's no arguing with it. It's just going to happen. …but you are living in Gainesville, you're being responsible, you haven't gone to the coast.  Isn't raising that person's rate a form of price gouging because you don't have as much risk and yet they're raising your rate , that's price gouging.

In episode 209 of America Adapts, I attended the Waterfront Conference in New York City hosted by the Waterfront Alliance. The conference took place at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in lower Manhattan. In this episode, you'll hear from state and local government officials talking about how they do coastal climate adaptation. We’ll also have insights from private sector companies who are leading the way in shovel-ready adaptation projects, essential for the next phase for the adaptation sector.  Attendees were not just talking about adaptation—they’ve created templates and programs with broad applications. The Alliance’s WEDG national adaptation program is another innovative initiative that we'll highlight, showing how it's paving the way for resilient communities.  You’ll also learn how 3D printing technology is used to create artificial reefs and seawalls. We'll also discuss private sector national funding efforts that are driving these shovel-ready adaptations and a new, massive New York State grant program for adaptation. The City of New York's climate justice efforts are also front, and center and we’ll dive into the concept of a cloudburst and how cities can manage these intense rainfall events. Yes, we cover a lot of ground in this episode!

In episode 208 of America Adapts, Mark Nevitt, an associate professor of law at Emory University joins the podcast to discuss his new paper that’s under review, entitled, Destroy, Rebuild, Repeat: How to Break the Climate Disaster Cycle.  Mark delves into the expansion of climate change law courses and his research on the security implications of climate change. He discusses his articles highlighting legal challenges in climate adaptation and introduces his new article focusing on breaking the climate disaster cycle. Mark emphasizes the importance of democratizing climate risk information and proactive measures like managed retreat. He explores legal liabilities in climate adaptation, the semantics of resilience, and the significance of accurate terminology in conveying climate risks. It’s a packed legally episode along with Doug’s ‘Hot Take’!

Transcript of this episode available here. Topics covered:

• The Legal Crisis Within the Climate Crisis
• Emory's Climate Research Initiative
• Flying Navy Jets and Legal Scholarship
• Destroy, Rebuild, Repeat: Overview
• Democratizing Climate Risk Information
• The Adaptation Paradox
• Holding Individuals Responsible for Climate Risk Decisions
• Adaptation vs. Resilience Semantics

Quotes from the episode:

Mark Nevitt:

The National Flood Insurance Program is essentially a massive program to subsidize sandcastles. That is in place. It's a classic moral hazard where the people who are benefiting from the program are not fully invested in all the risks associated with it. It's heavily subsidized.

My central argument in that article is that just as we have a climate crisis, and most of your listeners are aware of that, we also have legal doctrines, statutes that have not really kept up with our climate destabilized world.

Doug Parsons:

And so you're proposing an entirely new framework. To break this cycle of destroy, repealed, rebuild, repeat.

…we've got to hold people responsible even today decisions that are going to be happening in the next few years, because we won't ever be able to afford this because 10 years from now.

In episode 207 of America Adapts, Dr. Kelly Turner of UCLA and Dr. Ladd Keith at the University of Arizona join host Doug Parsons to discuss groundbreaking work in extreme heat governance and planning, specifically focusing on the recent NOAA grant awarded to launch the Center for Heat Resilient Communities. The grant aims to enhance heat resilience in communities by encouraging connections between stakeholders and the federal government, with a heavy emphasis on climate justice and environmental justice as part of President Biden’s Justice40 initiative. The discussion also covers federally funded research programs supporting rural and tribal communities with heat resilience, mapping shade equity nationally, and initiatives on indoor cooling. Kelly and Ladd encourage involvement in the field of heat policy and governance, inviting individuals to reach out and engage with the three year project.

Topics covered:

• NOAA Grant Overview
• Biden Administration's Role
• Principals and Key Partners/Community Partnerships
• Heat Resilient Communities Framework
• Evaluating Heat Resilience Policies
• Training Future Heat Leaders
• Funding and Support for Communities
• Climate and Environmental Justice
• Media Coverage of Extreme Heat
• Plug for Other Research Programs for Kelly and Ladd
• Call to Action: Visit heat.gov

Principal Researchers for the Grant:

Dr. V. Kelly Turner, UCLA (lead)

Dr. Ladd Keith, University of Arizona

Dr. Sara Meerow, Arizona State University

Transcript of episode available here. 

Quotes from the episode:

Dr. Kelly Turner: 

Really, there are two main goals. One is to to create a robust framework across a diverse set of contexts that communities could use to do heat resilience work. And so we have a series of six cores that the whole center is organized around. So the first goal is for us to create this framework. And the second goal is to then fund and to support communities. So 10 communities per year over three years to test that framework and refine it. And I could get into a little bit about each one of the cores if that's of interest.

Dr. Ladd Keith 

And we'll be co-developing essentially this heat resilient framework that the communities will be going through. And it involves all the cores and is really focused on supporting heat action planning at the local level and really drawing on that network of experts that we have involved in the center. I think one of the exciting things is we'll be co-developing this heat resilient framework with the communities that we're working with. And of Of course, we'll be supporting the initial 30 communities, but we'll also be putting a lot of that information on heat.gov so that it's accessible to all of the other 19,000 communities in the United States. And another part of it that's really exciting is all of the lessons that we're going to learn through the center is feeding that back to federal agencies and really partnering with them so they know how to better support community heat planning as well.
