Hear it Again: Finding hope amidst the dread of climate change
Flip on the news and you'll see it: record flooding in New England, record heat waves around the world.
It can be hard in 2023 to look at climate issues and not feel despair. But across the country, communities are persevering through our new climate reality.
From wildfires in Washington's Methow Valley to a California town struggling with the oil refinery in its midst.
Madeline Ostrander's book, "At Home on an Unruly Planet: Finding Refuge on A Changed Earth", seeks out the complicated adjustments communities are making to live with climate catastrophes at their door.
KUOW environment reporter John Ryan spoke with Ostrander about the book last August.
