In episode 214 of America Adapts, we partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense to show their work in adapting cultural resources in the Pacific islands. We traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii to cover the Keeping History Above Water workshop and the PICARD, Pacific Islands Climate Adaptation Research and Development conference. These two events were combined and sponsored by the Department of Defense.\xa0 The podcast covers how cultural resources are at threat from climate change and the unique challenges Pacific Islanders have in adapting to these threats. You\u2019ll also hear about some exciting adaptation technology to help islanders adapt to climate change. The three day event was a fantastic mix of indigenous people, adaptation experts and government representatives all converging to share their stories and approaches to adaptation. A special emphasis was placed on the Marshallese islands and you\u2019ll hear from a state senator from those islands who shares what\u2019s at stake for the Marshallese. This episode will get you to rethink what you know about cultural resources and you\u2019ll learn about the innovative ways Pacific islands are adapting.
