14 year-old reporter Cassidy Carr wanted to explore a story about climate change and farms in her hometown, New Bern, North Carolina. What Cassidy didn’t know at the time, was that a neighbor would turn her onto a story about how horses in Eastern North Carolina and in particular, their hooves, are being dramatically affected by climate change.

Climate Stories | Youth Report is a podcast by Coastal Youth Media & NC Health News exploring how climate change is shaping our neighbors lives in unexpected ways. The project is funded in part by a grant by North Carolina Sea Grant through the Community Collaborative Research Program.
