EP. 1711: Filmmaking team of "Asheville is Calling: A Climate Change Emergency"

Conversation with directors Hai-Lam Phan, Olivia Mowry, and writer/producer Margaret Cooney from the award-winning documentary film "Asheville is Calling: A Climate Change Emergency" Extreme weather disasters are becoming more common, more powerful, and more deadly. Today, more than ever, U.S. federal agencies like FEMA that help Americans prepare, respond, and recover from natural disasters need to be fully funded, staffed, and ready to act. Hurricane Helene survivor, Colleen Daly, talks about her harrowing experience both during and after this catastrophic event, and how changes enacted by the current U.S. administration are leaving communities to fend for themselves against extreme weather disasters. Communities deserve better than a government that abandons them when disaster strikes, and refuses acknowledge that climate change is harming people here and now. —— Subscribe to the podcast: Tweets by wildsoundpod https://www.instagram.com/wildsoundpod/ https://www.facebook.com/wildsoundpod
