About This Collection
What is climate change? A definition from the Department of Ecology of Washington State reads: Climate includes patterns of temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind and seasons. It affects more than just a change in the weather and refers to seasonal changes over a long period of time. These climate patterns play a fundamental role in shaping natural ecosystems, and the human economies and cultures that depend on them.
It may be used inter-changably with global warming as they’re closely related. Global warming causes climates to change. Here is NASA discussion on the two terms, What's In A Name?
We recommend you listen and learn which is the best advice we can give to begin to understand the challenges before us.

This raises critical questions about future displacement as flooding worsens and communities lose hope. Journalist and historian Jon Gertner, a New York Times Magazine feature writer and author of The Ice at the End of the World, explores these pressing environmental and societal challenges.
