Ep. 79 - Disability & Climate: Greyhound fights the ADA and Lyme Disease World Is Burning

    • Society & Culture

As Rosalynn Carter said, there are only four kinds of people in the world: those who have been caregivers; those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers. In this episode, Olivia dives into the pivotal ways that disability justice ties into climate, the Capitol Crawl, and the well-known bus company that tried to block the ADA. Then Elise, our resident Connecticut expert, explores how America's obsession with suburbs created the perfect environment for the spread of Lyme Disease and how human-caused climate change will change how the disease pops up in the future.
