Description: Our population is aging—by 2034, the US will have more people over 65 than
under 18, and older residents make up a disproportionate number of casualties from climate-fueled
disasters.
In her book Climate Resilience for an Aging Nation, [https://www.resilienceforanagingnation.com/]
Danielle Arigoni argues that we cannot achieve true resilience until communities adopt interventions
that work to meet the needs of their oldest residents who are disproportionately affected by extreme
weather, flooding, hurricanes and more.
This free presentation by Danielle Arigoni will provide an overview of how and why climate change differently impacts older people,
and the range of solutions and strategies -- by villages and others -- that can be deployed to reduce
risk. Please join us!
