The Other Washington
Summary: The podcast for everyone who knows conventional wisdom stinks. The Other Washington is a Seattle-based podcast that takes a deep dive into a single policy issue each episode. Listen to venture capitalist Nick Hanauer and his team of political troublemakers explain and explore how policies work, how they don’t, and how conventional politics often gets in the way of implementing effective policies.

Climate change is a huge problem on a global scale, which makes it difficult to imagine the personal consequences. So we @ Civic Action narrowed our focus to Washington state. Annie and Cass talk to farmers, professors, and a member of the Swinomish tribe to learn the negative (and, yes, some positive) effects of climate change on the region.
