SUMMARY

In this episode of The Carbon Connection, we are learning about climate adaptation and the fascinating emergence of “climatopias” with Doug Parsons and his guest, Alizé Carrère.

Carrère is a National Geographic Explorer, filmmaker, and Ph.D. student researching and documenting human adaptations to environmental change, including the forward-looking plans that architects, designers, and futurists are drawing up in response to imminent environmental change. Carrère shares some of the 4-part PBS documentary series she was part of and highlights her doctoral research on “climatopias,” what they are, and the relationship between transformational adaptation and climatopias. Her hopeful interpretations and tangible suggestions make this an intriguing listen that is about more than simply “cool designs.”
