The Emotional Impact of Modern Memorials

With an unprecedented phenomenon like climate change, do we have the words or the ways to express the feelings that it creates? In her new book, “Immemorial,” Writer Lauren Markham attempts to find the language, rituals and memorials to reckon with the grief of climate change, and a future that seems to be vanishing. We’ll talk about psychologically processing the environmental realities that we face.

Editorial note: The number of people who died in the Tubbs fire was stated incorrectly during this show. 22 people died in the fire.
