About this episode
Adaptation begins at home. But it doesn't end there. What do you plan on doing with your family as climate change gets worse? Are you already making plans whether to stay or go? How should states respond as people flee disaster? Who should get access to fish stocks as they migrate to new regions? Once one starts asking these questions, they really don't stop...Today's guest is Susannah Fisher, author of the new book, Sink or Swim: How the World Needs to Adapt to a Changing Climate. It's a wonderful catalogue of questions that asks and frames so many crucial discussions around people, nature, and politics.Much of the first half of the show is about how it feels to start thinking about adaptation and resilience rather than more optimistic mitigation work, and why adaptation can bring its own solace. We might not need to panic just yet... and I enjoyed getting some emotional centering from Susannah's deep experience in A&R research and policy work.This Episode's SponsorsAbsolute Climate: the only standard that’s developed independent of registriesPhilip Lee LLP: legal resources for carbon removal buyers and suppliersListen to the RCC episode with Peter Minor from Absolute ClimateListen to the RCC episode with Ryan Covington from Philip Lee LLPBecome a sponsor by emailing carbon.removal.strategies[at]gmail.comUse this affiliate link to use Descript's transcripting and podcast editing serviceSign up for the 9Zero climate coworking space with my referral codeResourcesBecome a paid subscriber of Reversing Climate Change
