GREG DALTON, Founder and Host, Climate OneHow do we build
communities that are more resilient than the ones we were raised in?
As severe weather hammers cities and spurs more migration, who will
pay to shore up infrastructure and secure the border?
Experts at the highest levels of U.S. government are now working to
uncover the ways that climate could threaten critical infrastructure
and re-shape the way communities respond to risk. Meanwhile, as
damages increase, so do insurance claims, making homeownership nearly
impossible in areas with the greatest risk of fires, floods, and
hurricanes. Pricing that risk and spreading the costs across society
will test American democracy and could further exacerbate the growing
wealth gap.
Join US for a conversation with ALICE HILL, senior fellow at the
Council on Foreign Relations and author of _Building a Resilient
Tomorrow: How to Prepare for the Coming Climate Disruption_,
and JANET RUIZ, strategic communication director at the Insurance
Information Institute. Joining remotely is SHERRI GOODMAN, senior
fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center and former U.S.
deputy under secretary of defense for environmental security.
