Talking About the Weather
If you want to understand the Great Plains, start with the weather. That’s the argument a Tom Isern is bringing to St. Paul this week, where he’ll present research on how climate change—long before it was politicized—shaped everything from ranching to farming across the region. What makes the moment more meaningful is who’s standing with him: two of his graduate students, now award-winning scholars themselves. Together, they’re showing why it matters that North Dakotans write their own history—and how that history might help us face what’s coming next. Read Mr. Isern’s essay on the topic with Prairie Public News linked below.
