Climate Change Will Make America Unrecognizable | Jake Bittle | TMR
Emma hosts Jake Bittle, staff writer at Grist, to discuss his recent book The Great Displacement: Climate Change and the Next American Migration.
Jake Bittle then dives right into his work exploring the existing displacement of myriad communities in the US due to environmental disasters, first walking through the parallels and contrasts he draws with the great migration of Black Americans from the South over the first half of the 20th Century, and the particular role that the chaotic nature of climate disaster plays in separating them. Next, Bittle walks through the various examples we have in recent years of climate displacement, from California wildfires to the flooding and weather in the South, to explore why failed capitalist policies – like those around housing and corporate exploitation – create insecure communities that cannot appropriately respond to immediate disasters, before looking to a particular community in North Carolina as a perfect example for why we need to emphasize resilience over relocation when these disasters strike.
