I have $80,000 in scholarship money to give away to women and girls NATIONWIDE. I worked so hard to raise this money. Applications open THIS week. I’m scared the mass migration will impact this

White text on a black background reads: IN NORWAY, "UP AND NOT CRYING" IS A NOT UNCOMMON RESPONSE TO "HOW'S IT GOING" TYPE QUESTIONS, AND I FEEL LIKE THAT'S A VERY REASONABLE STANDARD TO HOLD ONESELF TO ESPECIALLY NOWADAYS.

New Climate Maps Show a Transformed United States According to new data analyzed by ProPublica and The New York Times Magazine, warming temperatures, rising seas and changing rainfall will profoundly reshape the way people have lived in North America...
