Atlas with Shifting Edges – Elizabeth Rush

Elizabeth Rush reflects on climate change as a transformational
force on our landscapes and the words we might use to grasp this
shifting reality. Her book “Rising: Dispatches from the New
American Shore” was recently nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for its
rigorous reporting on America’s vulnerability to rising seas. This
narrated essay is an account of the days she spent driving through
the Pacific Northwest while on a tour for the book—a time of
wildfires, loss, and possible futures. Learn more about your ad
