'By Degrees,' a new climate change reporting project from NHPR, explores the intersecting crises of the pandemic, racial injustice and climate change. Driven by audience engagement, the stories consider the challenges we face and the ways people in New Hampshire are responding.
Human activity is warming the planet. This change is already reshaping how we live and interact with our environment in New Hampshire, across New England and beyond. And just as more people than ever were beginning to wake up to the climate emergency, our lives collided with the coronavirus pandemic and a generational reckoning on racial justice. ‘By Degrees’ NHPR's new climate change reporting project, begins in this historic moment. Here, we tell stories of the challenges and solutions that these intersecting crises are bringing to light -- individual stories of resilience and struggle, innovation and compromise, and of big change by degrees. The project’s members answer audience questions, take listeners to new places, challenge those in power, and explore how our state and region are living through climate change -- and responding to it.
