Flooding and Future Scenarios
Show Notes

Dr. Kimberly Daniels and Tim Morgan join the Water Foresight Podcast to discuss Flooding and Future Scenarios.  It's hurricane season and the Podcast is interested in learning about the future of flooding.  Daniels and Morgan examined future scenarios of flooding in Houston, Texas, through the lenses of health, poverty, and equity.  What are the tools and methodologies available to examine future flooding scenarios?  What do the four future scenarios--continuation, collapse, new equilibrium, and transformation--present for the future of flooding in Houston?  Are these scenarios possible, probable, or plausible?  What policies can Houston-based organizations develop in response to these scenarios?  What are the opportunities and risks presented by these scenarios?  Are these scenarios transferable to other cities facing future flooding risks?  The Podcast wants to know.
