Today鈥檚 Daily reminds me why the Monitor matters. Stephanie Hanes shows intimately how one Florida town speaks to the changes being wrought by fiercer storms worldwide. And Kate Okorie gives us a glimpse of what the world can be when resilience is met with an embrace.
Both stories reject the blinding tendency to focus only on short-term crisis. Instead, they explore different aspects of two key global trends 鈥 extreme weather and war. In the process, the authors help us see the world differently and more deeply.
