Doug Parsons is the Director of America Adapts Media and host of America Adapts – The Climate Change Podcast.

Doug then took a position as the Climate Change Liaison with the National Park Service’s Climate Change Response program.  In that role, Doug contributed to some of the earliest federal approaches to adaptation.  After NPS, Doug assumed the role of North America Policy Director at the Society for Conservation Biology, working on climate change adaptation, endangered species and science communication issues. Doug speaks regularly to different groups, trying to bring awareness to the emerging issue of climate adaptation.
