I’m fairly certain Sid Meier’s isn’t a 19th century Imperialist British historian but, well, all I’m saying is that you should consider the evidence for yourself. Today we’re going to learn all about history through the most historically accurate Gandhi simulator.

In this Our Changing Climate environmental video essay, I look at how climate change affects extreme weather like hurricanes, droughts, and wildfire. With recent hurricanes like hurricane Michael and hurricane Florence, climate change seems to be definitely affecting our weather systems. I also take a look at how a focus on resilience might be able to mitigate the destruction of these natural disasters.
