In August, rows of corn plants dotted the rural landscape in the 
Honduran department of Lempira. From afar, nothing looked amiss in these 
small farms. Yet it hadn’t rained for the previous 40 days, and the corn 
cobs tucked inside the husks were small and kernel-less. Across 
Honduras, an unpredictable climate has made this situation increasingly 
common. Droughts have wrecked crops, and changing weather patterns have 
created additional challenges for millions of Honduran farmers. To 
survive amid the bad harvests, rural families are looking elsewhere to 
supplement their incomes: to different sectors, nearby cities and north 
to the United States.

(Climate change, in other words, means more scary caravans of people 
with scary skin colors, you racist idiots, so you will have to choose 
between accepting climate change, and doing something about it, or 
accepting climate refugees. Pick one.)
