And I am afraid because land use has been a long ignored leg of climate change, that the actual consequences of the ecological disaster extreme weather is inflicting go unnoticed.
Our regional biomes play an intimate role in our regional climate. They are natural air conditioners and sprinkler systems, which capture rainfall, stored it in soil and then release that water back into the atmosphere, cooling the region and re-introducing water in a very measured way.

Land use is climate change. This fact has been ignored since the 70s. And it is not included in the climate models very much outside of the Amazon.
