Let us know what you thought of this episode.
In the opening episode of North Star Gaze Season 3, host Erica Phillips welcomes Dr. Adrienne Hollis—environmental toxicologist, attorney, and nationally recognized leader in environmental justice—as co-host for a quarter focused on GIS and Environmental Justice. Together, they explore how mapping, data access, and storytelling can expose historic inequities, prepare communities for climate risk, and shift responses from reaction to prevention. From redlining and disaster preparedness to mentorship and non-traditional partnerships, this conversation sets the stage for a powerful season examining how geography can be a tool for justice rather than exclusion.
