À propos de ce contenu audio

 Some disasters arrive all of a sudden: a wave, a quake, a raging fire. Others are slow-moving, even subtle. Water where it didn’t used to be. Heat that burns through the night. Trees gone white. But no matter what form it takes, disaster is a daily reality for more and more of us, at once ordinary and shattering. In this series from Vox Media and Audible Originals, we visit six communities across the US that are contending with disaster. We go beyond crisis coverage to explore the deeper questions: When disaster hits, what forces determine who stays, who goes, and what we do with what’s left? How did we get here in the first place? How far does our sense of community extend? Once land, cities, and buildings are repaired, who do we become? How do we keep remaking our sense of home?©2023 Vox Media, Inc (P)2023 Audible Originals LLC Nature et écologie Plein-air et nature Science

    Episode 1: When Your Land Disappears — Isle de Jean Charles, Louisiana
    Apr 13 2023
    Descendants of Biloxi, Chitimacha, and Choctaw Indians, who’ve lived just off Louisiana’s coast for more than a century, are losing their homes. Isle de Jean Charles is disappearing under the water faster than most anyone imagined. Why? Environmental degradation has been fueled by government and industry officials who once saw value in this land, and then changed their minds. Now, residents are being told it’s time to move. Not everyone is willing to go.

    Apr 13 2023
    Phoenix, Arizona, is America’s hottest major city, and temperatures in low-income communities can be 10 degrees higher than in wealthy neighborhoods that are minutes away. After yet another record-breaking summer of heat-related deaths and hospitalizations, we might finally have reached a moment of truth: communities and officials in this desert city are making moves to dial down the heat. But will their efforts work? This episode contains mature themes and language.
