NHPR By Degrees Climate Summit: Community Resilience

How can communities respond when environmental threats affect everyone?

The 4th annual By Degrees Climate Summit brings together journalists and community members to explore resilience in action. This year’s focus is water quality and environmental pollutants including PFAS and other emerging contaminants and how communities are addressing them through research, advocacy, and collaboration.

The program includes a solutions-oriented panel hosted by NHPR's Jason Moon featuring Mara Hoplamazian and their work on podcast, followed by a live Q&A with experts and organizers working to improve environmental health across the state. Participants will hear real-world examples of how people organize, share knowledge, and advocate for healthier environments.

Together, we’ll explore what resilience looks like when communities confront shared risks like PFAS exposure — and how collaboration can lead to meaningful, lasting change.

The event concludes with breakout sessions designed to help participants feel empowered to bring what they’ve learned back to their own communities.

Come learn, connect, and be inspired.

Be on the lookout for more information as we add speakers to our line-up.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
