Fossilized coral seacliff, late afternoon, Atiu coastline, Cook Islands, South Pacific. May 1990. Atiu's coral reef grows directly from the shoreline and encircles the island. Eruptions from an undersea volcano have raised the inner portion to form these fossilized coral cliffs.

I like that this church's designer was aware it was in the tropics.
The side sections have glassless windows with very open, decorative grids for maximum air flow.
Not clear in the photo but the sides of the main internal church building were a series of shuttered doors that could be closed if it ever got cool enough or if horizontal rain was expected.

It requires ongoing research, cultural awareness, and adaptability to thrive in the diverse and dynamic environments of these nations. @[email protected] ·From Storms to Survival: El Niño, Frankenstein, America, War, and the World Cup — A 19-Theme Global Journey Through History, Crisis, and Human Resilience
19 Themes: From El Niño to Frankenstein, America, War, and the World Cup — A Global Story of Survival
History shows one truth: humanity adapts. From famine to floods, from war to sport, every crisis creates new stories, ideas, and identities.
Theme 1: Nature Writes History
History is often shaped by nature—droughts, floods, and climate shifts have changed civilizations.
Theme 2: El Niño and Southern Africa
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWkOD_ukuE0
El Niño has intensified drought in southern Africa, affecting food systems and migration.
Theme 3: Northern Namibia and the Rain Crisis
Northern regions face both drought and flash floods, showing climate extremes.
Theme 4: When Heavy Rains Change Culture
Storms have inspired stories, myths, and literature for centuries.
Theme 5: The Story of Frankenstein
Frankenstein was written by Mary Shelley after the famous “Year Without a Summer” in Europe—caused by volcanic climate disruption, not El Niño or the Bahamas.
Theme 6: Lords, Poets, and the Birth of Horror
At Lake Geneva, Lord Byron challenged guests to write ghost stories. That night helped create Frankenstein.
Theme 7: Queens and Power in Times of Crisis
Royal power often shaped responses to famine, plague, and war.
Theme 8: Nuclear War and Human Fear
The Cold War created global fear of annihilation.
Theme 9: Crisis Creates Innovation
Wars and disasters often accelerate scientific breakthroughs.
Theme 10: The Spirit of United States
America’s story is one of reinvention—immigration, innovation, industry, and resilience.
Theme 11: America and the Global Story
The U.S. has shaped global politics, culture, technology, and sport.
Theme 12: Migration in Times of Hardship
People move when survival demands it.
Theme 13: Food Security and Global Hunger
Climate and conflict continue to threaten food systems.
Theme 14: Sports as Global Healing
Sport often unites where politics divide.
Theme 15: FIFA World Cup and Global Identity
The World Cup tells stories of nations, pride, migration, and identity.
Theme 16: Southern Africa on the World Stage
African nations carry regional hope into global tournaments.
Theme 17: History’s Lesson — Adapt or Fall
Empires rise and fall based on their ability to adapt.
Theme 18: The Future of Climate and Conflict
Climate change may become the next great test of human resilience.
Theme 19: Humanity’s Shared Story
From Namibia to America, from famine to football, from literature to war—the human story is survival, creativity, and adaptation.
Final Reflection
History tells us that nature, crisis, and imagination are deeply connected. Whether it is El Niño in southern Africa, the creation of Frankenstein, the fear of nuclear war, or the joy of the World Cup, each chapter reminds us: humanity endures by adapting.

Tropical Storm Boris
Tropical Storm Cristina -
Tropical Storm Boris and Tropical Depression 03E have just formed in the Eastern Pacific. Looks like TS Boris will be a very large threat to Mexico due to rainfall.

Is global warming tipping key Atlantic ocean currents towards ‘collapse’?
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a vast system of ocean currents that helps to distribute heat around the world.
By transporting warm water from the #tropics northwards and cold water back southwards, the #AMOC keeps #Europe warm and plays a role in controlling global #rainfall.
It connects into an even larger network of #ocean currents that continuously moves #water, #nutrients and #carbon around the world.
Now, the AMOC is under threat from human-caused #ClimateChange, as warming seas, melting ice and increased rainfall upset the temperature and salt balance of the North Atlantic.
