The Ultimate Guide to the National Climate Assessment (NCA5) - The Podcast

2h 21m · America Adapts the Climate Change Podcast · 09 Jan 00:11

In episode 197 America Adapts, we’ve got something special for you - the ultimate guide to the fifth edition of the National Climate Assessment. Joining the pod is the director of the NCA, Allison Crimmins who provides a 30,000-foot level view of what’s in NCA5. Then regular contributor – and executive producer of America Adapts – Dr. Jesse Keenan of Tulane University joins the episode and we take a deep dive on what’s in the assessment. Jesse will be your guide through the assessment, as he analyzes and provides expert insights into its positive aspects and benefits. Finally, Dr. Eric Tate of Princeton University – and co-author of the adaptation chapter of NCA5 – wraps up the episode. All three offer their advice on how you can leverage the NCA in your adaptation planning and climate communications. In the world of climate adaptation, finding a common language can be challenging, but embracing the NCA can be a game-changer, helping those doing work in ESG, Sustainability, resilience and adaptation planning find common ground. If you've ever felt intimidated by the sheer size of the assessment and wondered how it can be relevant to your work, this episode is tailor-made for you. This is a doozy of an episode, so share it in your networks!

Hey Adapters, I'm excited to announce a new partnership with Atmos. America Adapts has been selected as one of the non-profits that gets direct donations when you start banking with Atmos, the world's most climate-focused bank account. From solar loans, cash-back checking to high yield savings accounts, Atmos is 'banking with a purpose.' When you open a bank account you can increase your monthly savings rate when you regularly support their select list of non profits working for a sustainable future. Yes, there are other options besides America Adapts...like Amazon Watch, 1% for the Planet, Grist, Project Drawdown and many more. Please watch the short video below to get a specific explanation of what Atmos offers. America Adapts gets individual donors because we're a 501(c)3, but Atmos might be a better fit, as you get banking services with your donations..

On the Move: The Overheating Earth and the Uprooting of America with Abrahm Lustgarten

In episode 205 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons hosts Abrahm Lustgarten, an investigative climate reporter and author from Propublica. Abrahm discusses his work on climate change and migration and highlights his coverage of various climate-related issues such as water scarcity, sea level rise and wildfire. Abrahm’s book, "On the Move," explores climate-driven migration in the United States. He traveled the country learning how areas are preparing, or not, for the impacts of climate change. He goes on the ground and interviews people in the heart of these climate impact zones. You’ll learn the unique struggles people have as it becomes increasingly expensive…and dangerous…to live in these impact zones. We also discuss how the media is doing covering climate migration and what the government can potentially do to help with this growing threat. And an all new episode tradition, Doug's "Hot Take"!

Topics covered:

  • Abrahm Lustgarten and climate journalism
  • Abrahm’s Book: "On the Move"
  • Reporting at ProPublica
  • Winners and Losers of Climate Migration
  • Ecological Impact of Climate Migration
  • Media Coverage of Climate Migration
  • Book Promotion and Tour
  • Future Project on Societal Conflict from Climate Migration

Quotes from Abrahm Lustgarten in episode:

I think all we can say about that is that we all can anticipate an era of great change and I think it'll scramble the map. It's hard to know when that'll happen, when there's a tipping point, both in terms of people moving or what that means for politics. But I think that all that I could say about that is that I wouldn't be surprised if 25 years from now, the electoral map looks entirely different from how it does today in part in response to the kind of changes that I write about…

So we're having this kind of scary conversation about the economics of home values in California. And then that particular day, I was looking out my window into the wildland urban interface in the suburban place that I that I live in. And I was like, Hey, wait, Jesse, I live right one of these spots you're describing, should I and he just cut me off and presumed my question was, should I live in a place that I live in? should I move? And he was like, yes, get out of there. You got to go. That was three or four years ago and I haven't moved yet.

Bill shares his insights into how climate change now intersects with every aspect of our lives, transforming all beats into climate beats. Drawing from his experiences covering climate stories, he emphasizes the power of storytelling. We delve into the inspiration behind his book, "Life As We Know It," which looks at positive climate stories all inspired by the birth of his son. Critiquing mainstream media's coverage of climate change, he calls for a shift towards highlighting adaptation and innovation over sensational disasters. Bill unveils his upcoming special, "Adaptation Nation," and shares the joys and challenges of interviewing icons like Paul McCartney. Bill will leave you with some practical advice on how you can bring climate communication into the important adaptation work you’re doing. Join us as we explore the interconnectedness of climate with our lives and the transformative power of storytelling in shaping our collective response to the greatest challenge of our time.

Topics covered:

  • Embracing the Climate Beat
  • The Human Element of Climate Stories
  • Inspiring Innovations in Climate Adaptation

Quotes:

Bill Weir:

“We’re all going to be climate reporters.”

“I'm an omnivore, but when they created a climate desk at CNN, it occurred to me that this is the beat that includes all the other beats.”

“This is not the earth systems of your grandfather anymore. And all of these stories are connected. So oftentimes I'm, yelling at my TV set while there's some sort of a cataclysmic, something's happening somewhere that is getting national attention. And I'm just like, say it, stay the words, say the words, climate change!”

Life, Liberty and Climate Data: The Privatization of a Public Good

In episode 203 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons hosts Dr. Justin Mankin. Justin is a climate scientist and associate professor at Dartmouth College. Doug and Justin discuss his provocative column in the New York Times on climate data accessibility – should tax funded climate data remain a public good. Justin also explains the intricacies of climate modeling and the ethical considerations of private sector involvement. Justin also emphasizes the significance of aligning private and public sector efforts for effective climate adaptation. Doug and Justin discuss the importance of having a National Adaptation Plan and Justin also highlights the work of his students in climate impact attribution and loss and damage research. America Adapts is increasingly covering the issue of climate data and modeling and in this thought providing discussion, we learn about the ethical considerations of privatizing a public good.

Topics covered:

  • Understanding Climate Models
  • The Right to Climate Data
  • Legal Implications of Climate Data Accuracy
  • Interaction with Private Sector on Climate Science
  • Free Climate Models vs. Paid Models
  • Importance of National Adaptation Plan
  • National Resilience Framework vs. National Adaptation Plan
  • Dr. Mankin's Student Research Projects
  • Recommendation for Future Guest: Erin Mayfield and Klaus Keller

Quotes:

Dr. Justin Mankin:

“I think there's a gigantic gap between the science I do and the decision relevance of it.”

“My investigations, which are fundamentally about informing adaptation and risk management of climate change that science is paid for,? And to the extent that science is linked back to people's tax dollars. I have an absolute imperative to communicate my science to whoever will listen.”

“And that means that a national adaptation plan would establish minimal require informational requirements and make those data to inform adaptation decisions available to people in a legible format, right?”

*On the potential for current climate ligation to address racial inequity, please seeLitigating Separate and Equal.

*On equity and reparations, please seeClimate Reparations. This is a relatively older piece, but is a nice precursor to my current contribution to the Lancet Commission on Reparations and Redistributive Justice for which I serve as the climate section lead.

*On small island vulnerability and deterritorialized statehood, please see The Nation Ex-Situ.
