excerpt: "to connect the dots on the extreme weather they've experienced: unseasonal rainfall, drought, disappearance of aquatic creatures, and more. Climate change has also affected religious norms there— while they used to practice holy bathing in the local river, today there is almost no water in the river and what there is is heavily polluted.
