Meet the Adapters: Conversations from the National Adaptation Forum

In episode 254 of America Adapts, host Doug Parsons heads to the National Adaptation Forum to meet some of the people shaping the future of climate adaptation.

These short conversations highlight the creativity, innovation, and collaboration driving adaptation efforts today, while also raising an important question: how do we bring even more people, sectors, and ideas into the adaptation movement?
