Asheville is Calling: A Climate Change Emergency, 6min., USA
Directed by Hai-Lam Phan, Olivia Mowry
Extreme weather disasters are becoming more common, more powerful, and more deadly. Today, more than ever, federal agencies that help Americans prepare, respond, and recover from natural disasters need to be fully funded and ready to act. Changes enacted by the Trump administration are leaving communities to fend for themselves against extreme weather disasters, and the oil and gas CEOs behind these fossil-fueled climate disasters are fueling, funding, and concealing it all. Americans deserve better than a government that abandons them when disaster strikes.
