The Wild Hunt (https://wildhunt.org/tag/enso)
We don’t usually report on seasonal weather forecasts, but this one, organizations say, deserves attention. Experts say a strengthening El Niño could affect everything from winter storms to food prices, making preparedness more important than ever.
[As climate change and extreme weather are at the forefront of people’s minds, many are asking how and where religion fits into the conversation. Today, we welcome guest writer Heathen Chinese. He is the son of Chinese immigrants and is a diasporic Chinese polytheist living in the San Francisco Bay Area (stolen Ohlone land). He practices ancestor veneration and worships (among others) the warrior god Guan Di, who has had a presence in California since the mid-1800s. He writes at Gods and Radicals and at heathenchinese.wordpress.com.]
California has been in a State of Emergency due to drought since January 2014.
