The climate adaptation conversation starts here

 

Join climate change adaptation expert Doug Parsons as he talks with scientists, activists, policymakers and journalists about the choices we face and the people who make them.

Why adaptation?

Even with measures to reduce carbon emissions, the globe has already warmed and will do so in the future. Prioritizing adaptation efforts is essential.

America Adapts is dedicated to finding and elevating the voices of pioneers in adaptation who are already making a substantial impact on society and the environment. Although there is still much to learn in the developing field of adaptation, by fostering crucial communication and investigating potential directions for advancement, this podcast significantly contributes to increasing our society's capacity for adaptation.

Helping lead the conversation about the next phase of climate adaptation.

For two decades, climate adaptation has focused on understanding risk and developing plans. The next challenge is making adaptation a normal part of how society works—from public understanding and leadership to funding, institutions, and implementation. Through podcasts, speaking, media, and strategic partnerships, America Adapts is helping shape that transition.

Key goals:

  • Communicate critical issues through interviews with scientists, activists, policy makers, and journalists.

  • Catalyze global connections between experts and information on climate adaptation practice and research.

  • Enhance visibility of adaptation research and interventions.

  • Connect professionals to maximize resources and increase efficiency, efficacy, and equity in climate preparation and response.

  • Diffuse innovation and knowledge to the public.

  • Broadcast challenges and barriers of adapting to climate change.

  • Inspire the public with a message of hope and possibilities, while emphasizing the critical need for action.
