On today’s Closer Look with Rose Scott, severe weather experts blame climate change for the intensifying hurricanes, flooding, and wildfires that we’ve seen over the past few decades. These more frequent signs of climate change are also causing anxiety for a growing number of Americans. To address these concerns and discuss solutions, Climate Cafés are being established in major cities in the U.S. and around the world. Today, we spoke with the founder and director of Climate Café, Jess Pepper, and Denise Cheeseman, the Sustainability Project Manager for City of Savannah.

Also, we begin our annual series of spotlighting the unique journeys of local college graduates. Laura Davis was just two academic quarters short of a psychology degree when she had to drop everything and flee her home country of Venezuela. She could only carry one small suitcase through the Colombia border, crossing into an uncertain future. Now, she is a 2024 graduate of Georgia Gwinnett College.
