The N.H. News Recap For Aug. 13, 2021: Climate Change, 2020 Census Data And More

A landmark report about the effects of climate change was released this week. We break down the implications of this report for New Hampshire. We're already seeing increases in precipitation and another summer heat wave, both of which are expected to increase as we feel more of the effects of climate change.

And data from the 2020 census dropped this week. We review how New Hampshire has (and hasn't) changed since the last decennial census, in 2010.

We unpack the regional and national implications of both of these reports (in a fun and engaging way, we promise) on this edition of the N.H. News Recap.

And if you haven't subscribed yet to the Weekender, what are you waiting for?

I oversee NHPR’s news magazines, Morning Edition and All Things Considered. I support our show producers and hosts in bringing listeners in depth conversations and stories on the latest news and culture in New Hampshire. I believe in community driven storytelling and connecting with Granite Staters to learn more about what it's like for them living in New Hampshire. I’m interested in conversations and stories that show the impact of policy decisions and hold those in power to account.
As the host of Morning Edition, my aim is to present news and stories to New Hampshire listeners daily that inform and entertain with credibility, humility and humor.
