America Adapts the Climate Change Podcast The Fight for Climate After Covid-19 with Alice Hill
In this episode, Doug Parsons talks with returning guest Alice Hill about her new book, The Fight for Climate After Covid-19. We discuss what inspired her to write the book; how her experiences working on climate change and biodefense during the Obama Presidency informed her thinking; why we need a national adaptation plan; the critical need for political leadership in confronting crises like covid and climate change; and why we should ‘marry’ climate mitigation in adaptation.
Topics covered:
- What lessons can we learn from Covid-19th in dealing with climate change?
- We need a national adaptation plan.
- Why political leadership is absolutely critical in dealing with big issues.
- We need to ‘marry’ adaptation and mitigation and have them work together…when possible.
- Learning about the adaptation profession and what advice Alice can offer professionals in this space.
- Alice’s experiences in the Obama White House and how that informs her adaptation work today.
