Climate Conversations: Extreme Events - Livestream

As a result of climate change, extreme events such as floods, wildfires, storms, and heat waves are already becoming more dangerous and destructive. Marshall Shepherd (University of Georgia) will moderate a conversation with Craig Fugate (former FEMA Administrator) and Marissa Aho (Washington State Department of Natural Resources) about the connections between climate change and extreme events, and about how communities and governments at different scales can plan for and become more resilient to the risks from extreme events today and into the future.

Speakers: Marissa Aho, Washington State Department of Natural Resources; Craig Fugate, former FEMA administrator; J. Marshall Shepherd, University of Georgia
