#MeToo Meets Climate Adaptation: Author Elizabeth Rush Rises to the Climate Challenge

In episode 77 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons is joined by author and professor, Elizabeth Rush. Elizabeth discusses her recent book, Rising: Dispatches from the New American Shore. Doug and Elizabeth dig in to the positive reaction it's received, her book tour, and they take a deep dive on how vulnerability to climate change relates to the #MeToo movement. It's a provocative and enlightening conversation. And we have a bit of fun too.
