Local Loss in a Global Crisis. Ryan Atkinson blog post

Ryan Atkinson's "Local Loss in a Global Crisis" explores the
disconnect between Western perceptions of climate change and its
tangible effects on vulnerable communities, specifically in the
Langtang Valley of Nepal. Ryan reflects on his personal
carbon footprint and the ethical implications of his travels
while witnessing the devastation caused by the 2015 earthquake,
exacerbated by climate change.


Ryan highlights the resilience and enduring spirit of the
local people, who face immense challenges despite having
contributed little to the global crisis. The piece
ultimately underscores the profound impact of global
environmental issues on local lives, compelling Ryan to advocate
for these stories. You can read the blog post here:
