How Climate Migration Will Reshape America

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Sep 24, 2020

This segment is guest-hosted by Matt Katz. 

From the record-breaking wildfires on the West Coast to the very active hurricane season in the Atlantic Ocean, Americans across the country are seeing the impact of climate change. ProPublica reporter Abrahm Lustgarten talks about how climate change will reshape America in the years to come, and why the U.S. is not well-prepared to address the multi-faceted challenge of climate change. His most recent article, "How Climate Migration Will Reshape America," appears in the September 20th issue of the New York Times Magazine.
