DESCRIPTION:CLIMATE ONE: Flooding in America’s Heartland\n\nWhen:  Tue, Jun 30 @ 4:00 
 PM PT\n\nWhere: Online via livestream\n\nMiami might be the poster child of 
 rising waters in the United States, but further inland, states are 
 grappling with torrential flooding that is becoming the new norm. Last 
 year, flooding in the southeast killed 12 people and caused $20 billion in 
 damages. This year’s rains have already driven Mississippi into a state 
 emergency, and Missouri is bracing itself with a levee system still in 
 disrepair from last year’s storms.\n\nCan infrastructure like 
 floodplains, wetlands, and engineered barriers save riverside states from 
 their new, saturated norm? How are communities adapting to a changing, 
 wetter climate in some of the most conservative parts of the country? 
 \n\nJoin us for a conversation with Julia Kumari Drapkin, CEO and founder 
 of ISeeChange and Martha Shulski, director of the Nebraska state climate 
 office, for a conversation on flooding in America.\n\nABOUT: Climate 
 One\n\nClimate One at The Commonwealth Club (non-profit) is a thriving 
 leadership dialogue on energy, the economy and the environment. We bring 
 together top thinkers and doers from business, government, academia and 
 advocacy groups to advance the discussion about a clean energy 
 future.\n\nThe Commonealth Club is offering its speaker talks for free 
 online during the COVID-19\nstay-at-home orders. A donation during 
 registration would be welcome. \n\n
