How We Survive
5.0/5
Critic Rating
“How We Survive” is an award-winning podcast from Marketplace, hosted by Amy Scott, about the messy business of climate solutions. In the eighth season, we’re taking a closer look at what’s on our plate. We embark on a food tour of the future. We sample “cell-cultivated” salmon and chocolate. We visit farmers in our nation’s breadbasket where hotter, drier, less predictable weather has global consequences. And we’ll take you on the ground into one of the more demonized (and misunderstood) parts of the agricultural system: factory farms.

"One of the most illuminating episodes was the November 8, 2023 show Groundwater Wars, in which the small farming town of Kingman, Arizona, deals with the scarce resource of groundwater. The show offers an unsparing view of how farmers, ranchers, homeowners, and government officials battle over a swindling resource—fresh water. A few tend to lecture listeners and get hung up on climate deniers instead of focusing on solutions like How We Survive."

" 16 minutes they give you a solid understanding of what factors to consider when it comes to deciding where to live and the impact of climate change. You learn about how insurance prices may change and what to prepare for. And if you’re a renter, they’ve got things for you to also keep in mind!"
