Earth appears to be developing new never-before-seen human-made seasons


Seasons are more than just divisions of time — they are our connection with nature.

Throughout history, people have viewed seasons as relatively stable, recurrent blocks of time that neatly align farming, cultural celebrations and routines with nature's cycles. Changing seasonal patterns throw the interdependent life cycles of plants and animals out of sync with each other, and disrupt the communities that are economically, socially and culturally dependent on them. By recognizing this new season, societies might normalize the recurrence of haze and isolate anyone who demands the government and businesses deal with deforestation and burning.
