Spotlight: The Adaptors
Synopsis
Climate change is calling. The adaptors are responding. We introduce you to them, one story at time. The Adaptors bypasses the political divide by focusing on the facts on the ground: How are climate change and an uncertain energy future affecting our lives right now and how are we responding. Our lens is trained on stories of invention, resilience and outside-the-box thinking. We seek out pioneers from diverse backgrounds with differing points of view who share one thing in common: they are adapting.
The Adaptors is a bi-weekly podcast and video series hosted by science journalist and videographer Flora Lichtman.
