Environmentally Speaking
Welcome to Environmentally Speaking.
The environment is everything, literally, and on this podcast, no environmental topic is off-limits. We are living in unprecedented times. Times of threats to our environment, our health, and our freedom. Environmental degradation has resulted in the loss of livelihoods, lives, cultures, knowledges, and heritages. We are in the midst of a global-scale environmental crisis…climate change. What are our leaders doing to fight against this? What are you doing to fight against this? For our returning listeners, we have rebranded. So you would have been with us from what is now Season 1, CovidChat, where we discussed the multidimensional impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. Thank you for sticking with us. Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook @Ourfootprintja. Visit our website www.ourfootprintja.org.

Infrastructure & Disaster Readiness & Recovery
With the memory of Hurricane Beryl fresh in our minds and as we are heading into another hurricane season, we can't forget Disaster Readiness & Recovery on the campaign trail. We have to talk about the support and infrastructure we need to create resilience towards these natural hazards that could prevent disaster.
This episode we are joined by Kristinia Doughorty, Disaster Risk Reduction & Climate Change Adaptation specialist and Dainalyn Swaby Development Communication Specialist & creator of the Global Yaadie Podcast. We talk about what community resilience looks like, in the face of these disasters.
