The future can seem bleak. With a warming planet, there's the threat of rising seas, increased flooding, intensified storms, and that's already happening. With all of this, what can the youngest generation expect for their future?

We speak with GenZ activist John Paul Mejia about that anxiety. We also hear from Florida International University associate professor Tiffany Troxler about how we got here.

What will climate change actually look like when it happens? Well, you only need to look at what's been happening. Notice how the temperatures are on the rise, annually. Notice how flooding is getting worse, regularly. We've been living under climate change for decades. Professor Ben Kirtman from the University of Miami helps us better understand how the changes that are coming will become part of our everyday lives.

We all hear from high school senior and GenZ environmental activist Maya Gowda. She's concerned with making sure that impoverished communities are not left behind as the climate crisis starts reshaping the geography of our cities.

Delaney Reynolds started teaching and advocating climate change when she was a young teenager. It started with a book she wrote at the age of 14. Shortly after, it led to the launch of a non-profit called the Sink or Swim Project. She's hosted a TedX talk, won numerous accolades and is currently studying law and the environment at the University of Miami.

Some consider Reynolds the Greta Thunberg of South Florida because she is that and more. Reynolds started working on her advocacy way before Greta was a household name.

In this episode, Delaney talks about a lawsuit she helped file against the governor of Florida, a law she cowrote with a Miami mayor, and her thoughts on the future of her hometown.
