Show Notes

According to a new nationwide poll, more than three-quarters of adults have been personally affected by extreme weather in the past five years — and that experience makes them more likely to call climate change a crisis than those who haven’t experienced a heat wave, hurricane, flooding or the like. The poll is from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, NPR and Harvard Chan School of Public Health, and also measures attitudes about health and economic impacts of extreme weather. We speak with Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Chief Science Officer Alonzo Plough.
