https://www.worldhumorawards.org/uncategorized/cm4g0ng A few weeks ago, I mused that the American Southwest may be on borrowed time. Forget that. The Southwest is toast. A new paper in Nature spells doom. From the abstract: The potential for increased drought frequency and severity linked to anthropogenic climate change in the semi-arid regions of the southwestern United States is a… https://wasmorg.com/2024/03/07/eyo1cffudo Continue Reading…

Let's Talk Drought

Drought, like global warming, is a slow motion event that humans can’t get seem to get ahead of. Or properly grasp. For a good historical case study examining how the Maya, the Vikings, and the U.S. (in the lead-up to the Dust Bowl) each responded to drought, see this paper by Ben Orlove, who observes:… Continue Reading…

Africa's Ancient Mysteries

Tramadol Overnight Shipping Visa This article by Roger Webster, a South African historian, is intriguing on several levels.

Drought Gets No Respect

The tragedy of Kenya’s latest drought is captured in all its complexity by Jeffrey Gettleman. His deeply contextual story won’t lend itself to climate advocates who’d probably like nothing better than to tag it as another cautionary tale of global warming.  As Gettleman explains, The aid community here has been predicting a disaster for months,… https://ncmm.org/gc59qzj Continue Reading…

Resilient Storylines on Drought and Climate

https://www.jamesramsden.com/2024/03/07/a9ij5v298 The dominant framing of the water/drought issue in California is quite similar to that of the emerging climate change/developing world meme.

The Disaster Storyline

Tramadol Uk Order Would climate change have greater urgency in the public mind if we started talking more about adaptation?
