    Habagat, Amihan, Ants and Elephants

    What do the love story of Habagat & Amihan have to do with ants and elephants? Carmina and Patch discuss the mythology of the Philippines’ monsoons, how early Filipinos dealt with this phenomenon, and current day views about climate change. They talk about how Tropical Cyclone Haiyan (also known as Yolanda) gained global attention through Yeb Saño’s emotional speech at the 19th conference of parties (COP) to the UN in 2013 and his climate justice efforts. They also introduce us to Red Constantino and his impactful essay “How the Ants Move the Elephants in Paris,” which chronicled the developing nations’ collective efforts in 2015 to move developed nations towards a more equitable Paris Agreement. Finally, they attempt to inspire hope, and like the ants in Red’s essay, call all of us to action.    Learn more: Increased Risk of Diseases Due To Typhoons, Climate Change In Western Pacific, Agri-Losses, NYT: Typhoon in Philippines Casts Long Shadow Over U.N.
