Environmentalists and climate change activists have spent
years pushing to create a more sustainable planet. But what if the idea of sustainability itself is no longer enough in an increasingly
volatile world? Futurist Andrew Zolli has written a new book about the concept
of resilience- the ability to adapt to changed circumstances while still maintaining one’s core purpose- and it has inspired some high level thinking at Vermont’s
Agency of Natural Resources.
We’ll hear have a conversation with Andrew Zolli and Deborah
Markowitz, Secretary of the Agency of Natural Resources, about how the concept
of resilience could be applied to Vermont.

Also on the program, we’ll get an update from the Red Cross
about Local Disaster Shelter Initiative.
