The disruptive force of environmental disasters is a wake-up call, posing questions about what’s important and how we want to live. This prods us to build resilience and create social cohesion now, without waiting for disasters to strike. Hear how communities are pursuing these goals from a panel that will launch a new documentary podcast series. “Disaster Collectivism,” from Shareable, Upstream Podcast, and the Post Carbon Institute, uncovers our natural tendencies to support our neighbors during crisis. Co-presented by Shareable.
