Jennifer Kent is one of the world's leading researchers on the topic and shared her knowledge on the subject.

How does a city change itself? First, it has to be honest and know where to start. Mick Cornett was very honest to the point of even telling Oklahoma City residents while he was Mayor that it was time to collectively lose weight. The initiatives, the projects, the policies, and the places that spured from making such a declaration transformed an auto oriented and sprawling American city, into a poster child of how to modernize, improve quality of life, and address the many needs of people to conduct happier and healthier lives. Mick Cornett is a wonderful example of a leader and we were proud to have him join our show.

Cancer. The word itself often brings horrifc thoughts and memories to nearly every American as the chronic disease has touched the lives of countless people. What role does planning play in the exposure of carcinogenic materials to our citizens, and more importantly, how do we stop such exposure from happening altogether? In Kristina's new book, A New War on Cancer, she touches on the modern causes of cancer and how our built environment is often a culprit. While we as planners often get caught up in land use application or transportation issues, Kristin'a book is a great reminder of how we plan and what we approve can often have profound effects beyond the obvious.

We were thrilled to have Danielle join us to talk about our warming and unpredicatable change and how our nation is being effected, specifically older Americans. In Climate Resilience for an Aging Nation, community resilience and housing expert Danielle Arigoni argues that we cannot achieve true resilience until communities adopt interventions that work to meet the needs of their oldest residents. She explains that when we plan for those most impacted by climate, and for those with the greatest obstacles to opportunity and well-being, we improve conditions for all.
Danielle is a policy and program expert in the fields of livable communities, affordable housing, and climate resilience. She has worked for more than 25 years in the federal government and nonprofit sectors in pursuit of more equitable, sustainable, and resilient places. She began her career as a Peace Corps volunteer in Kenya and has since led impactful and innovative teams at USAID, EPA, HUD, and AARP, currently serving as Managing Director of Policy and Solutions at National Housing Trust. She serves on the boards of Smart Growth America and the League of American Bicyclists.
