Nature is getting increasingly unpredictable lately
in The World Around Us ·
Is it just me, or does it feel like the "once in a lifetime" natural disasters are happening every other month now?
I was looking at some old travel photos from a few years ago, and it’s crazy to see how much the landscape in certain parts of the world has changed. It used to be that you could plan a trip to a specific region and feel pretty certain about the environment you'd be stepping into. Now, there's this constant underlying anxiety about whether a beautiful destination is actually safe to visit or if it's currently being hammered by something uncontrollable.
It makes me wonder if we're reaching a tipping point where the seasonal patterns we all grew up relying on just don't exist anymore. It’s getting harder to separate "normal" weather from something truly catastrophic.
Has anyone else changed how they plan their vacations or travel because of this uncertainty?
