Download audio (MP3)

A new UC Berkeley study finds that $2.5 trillion worth of California real estate is at risk from wildfires, sea level rise and extreme weather linked to global warming. We talk to the authors of the study, who advocate turning the threat into an opportunity for economic renewal.

Host: Dave Iverson

Guests:

  • Bernadette Del Chiaro, clean energy advocate with Environment California
  • David Roland-Holst, professor of agricultural and resource economics at UC Berkeley and lead author of "California Climate Risk and Response"
  • F. Noel Perry, founder of Next 10, a Palo Alto-based non-profit organization which funded the UC Berkeley study
