In this special episode, we speak with the director of the UW Climate Impacts Group about the ways that outdoor recreation is changing and what can still be saved.
For a long time, climate change was more of a theoretical threat for many people. While certain events would underline the threat the scientists were warning the world about, they were rare enough that it was possible to ignore or quickly forget about the dangers ahead.
That is becoming more and more difficult to do now as headlines about record-breaking heat waves, drought, wildfires and flooding become more frequent.
It is also becoming more difficult to ignore for one particular segment of the population: outdoor adventurers who rely on snowy slopes, forest trails, waterways and clean air to get their kicks.
For this special episode of Crosscut Escapes we are sharing a conversation from our Crosscut Talks podcast where we speak with CIG director Amy Snover about the ways the changing climate is changing the nature of outdoor recreation.
Stay tuned for the first episode of Crosscut Escapes' second season on Tuesday, Aug. 31!
